hay out of curiosity what is the best mage you have ever come up with. Mine so far is:
-high elf.
-specialize in magic.
-mage sign.
-intelligence & willpower.
-Major skills: destruction, alteration, myskism,enchant & short sword.
-Minor skills: marksman, acrobatics, athletics, light armour & resteration.

Just wondered what othe people have come up with!

I personally think there's no such thing as the ultimate mage, but the closest to that which I ever got to that would be my third character, Reptile the (no friggin' duh) Argonian, who was pretty godly in most hotstile magic arts, even though he started out as mostly fighter material. I would include a screenie of him with his dual 'Order of Ymdrasil' scimitars, but I'm using my Mac (which obviously does not have my screenie library on it)

As many have said before, in Morrowind there really is no perfect combination

One way or another, any character could become an all powerful destiny changing mage you can just make it easier at the start with certain character choices.

I prefer birthsign the Atronach: more magicka, spellabsorption.
To compensate for the stunted magicka you can either carry lot's of potions or use a summon ancestral ghost spell, punch it 4 times to make the ghost go hostile and watch his magic attacks replenish your magicka ( works best with proper resist magicka)

Breton + Atronach = enormous spell power, no significant weaknesses, almost complete immunity from magic attack.
