Seems about right.....

My suggestion if you want to keep magic would be you'd have to tone him down a lot in hp etc. Perhaps 95 hp with size around 4.
Its not just the magic paths - its the combination of paths. Earth / water are very strong bless paths.

Thematically, Fire/Water would fit well with your fire and cold resistance - but again strong bless paths.

Compare Monster Fish with PoD - one of the popular chassis, at the same point cost. You're proposing better paths than POD, AND more hitpoints, AND better expansion capability - capable of solo expansion on turn one with a high dominion boosting his hp by 26/candle as well as his damage.

So please don't take it like I'm raining on your parade - its a great job, and much better than I can do on graphics. I'd love to include him in my ABM Pretenders - but too strong still = )
