Then i believe i'd have to change characters after all. What should i be aiming for - a level of power similar to Ijok's, or slightly lower?

Similar or lower is fine. This was just an instance of happenstance in regards to how certain spells would function. If it wasn't for that set of spells, then Shio probably would have struggled against Ijok without significant modification.

The downside to Atrenian magic is that all of it has pretty strict function.
