[@JohnSolaris] Dammit. My hopes for making a pugilist that fights by punching people with spells coming out of his knuckles are dashed.

Uh, not really? As I said above, it's entirely possible to make spells come out of your fists just as you punch people; you just have to time it right to have the casting coincide with the punching. The casting is just triggered by your mind, not by your fist, but through practice you could get some good muscle memory going to make it reflexive.
