A man in plate goes down into the sewers. He was mandated by the burgomaster to investigate on disappearances
allowing them to
occurring in the city. He moves slowly forward, sees them, draws one of his blades from his back. But too late, they
 
spotted him, it must have been the noise of his armor. The goblins rush to him shouting insults and unintelligible
words, but a fireball is already forming in his hand…
A man follows the target of his contract from the top of the city’s wall. But as he advances, suddenly, he sees the
men, and conjures his magical shield as a volley of crossbow bolts come flying at him, it may have been an ambush…
A dark looking man in black leather armor is exploring a crypt of the underdark. His client wants him to steal an
ancient relic in these tunnels. He advances rapidly but stealthily. As he ears the cackling of the skeletons’ jaws, he
takes out his dagger and rapier, casting a spell on it. He is surrounded but confident…

This is how a spellsword fight. As fighting is what a spellsword do best, mixing their mastery of melee combat with
spells to destroy their foes, and strengthen themselves or their weapon with arcane magic. Among other easier spells,
more useful outside of combat. As well as rely on the potions they brew to overcome their lack of healing magic (I
suggest using this or eventually this for alchemy).

Sword Trained
A spellsword is trained to wear any type of armor and trained in the handling of swords. As they limited their mastery
to one handed blades only, needing one free hand to perform the somatic components of spells. And not learning the
use of shields or other weapons, to develop a variety of other skills.

Wielder of the Arcane

Spellswords are trained in the arts of arcane and alchemy. But they perceive magic as an ultimate weapon, giving
them range and destructive power no ordinary weapon could achieve. Though the casting of a typical spell requires
merely the utterance of a few strange words, fleeting gestures, and sometimes a pinch or clump of exotic materials,
these surface components barely hint at the expertise attained after years of apprenticeship and countless hours of
study.

 Spellsword Class Features  

As a Spellsword, you gain the following class features when you reach the specified levels in this class.
These features are listed on the Spellsword table.

1st Level : Spellcasting

As a spellsword you are a student of arcane magic. See the Player’s Handbook for the rules on spellcasting. The
information below details how you use those rules as a Spellsword.
Cantrips. You know two cantrips of your choice from the Arcane spell list.
Whenever you gain a Spellsword level, you can replace one of your cantrips with another cantrip of your choice
from the Arcane spell list.
When you reach 4th and 10th level in this class, you learn another cantrip of your choice from the Arcane spell list,
as shown in the Cantrips column of the Spellsword table.
Spell Slots. The Spellsword table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher.
To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher.
You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a Long Rest.
Prepared Spells of 1st+ Level. You prepare the list of spells of 1st level and higher that are available for you to cast
with this feature. To start, choose two 1st"level spells from the Arcane spell list.
The number of spells on your list increases as you gain Spellsword levels, as shown in the Prepared Spells column
of the Spellsword table. Whenever that number increases, choose additional spells from the Arcane spell list until the
number of spells on your list matches the number on the table. The chosen spells must be of a level for which you
have spell slots. For example, if you’re a 5th"level Spellsword, your list of prepared spells can include six Arcane
spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination.
If another Spellsword feature gives spells that you always have prepared, those spells don’t count against the
number of spells on the list you prepare with this Spellcasting feature, but those spells otherwise follow the rules in
this feature.
Changing Your Prepared Spells. . Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one of the spells you
know with another spell of your choice from the Arcane spell list. The new spell must be of a level for which you have
spell slots.
Spellcasting Ability. Intelligence is your spellcasting ability for your Spellsword spells.
Spellcasting Focus. You can use an Arcane Focus or you can use a Simple or Martial weapon as a Spellcasting
Focus for the spells you prepare for this class.

As per the rules here and here, as long as you have a weapon in one of your hand (I’d allow just holding the pommel of your sheathed
sword) acting as a spellcasting focus for this class (as well as the bards’ college of Swords and Valor), you can cast spells with :

material components (of no consumed/cost component)

somatic and material components (of no consumed/cost component).

But you can’t cast spells with somatic components and no material components if you don’t have a free hand or the War Caster
feat.

1st Level : Sword Cantrip

You know one extra cantrip : the booming blade cantrip or the green!flame blade cantrip (your choice) (see your
Spellcasting feature for information on preparing spells).

1st Level : Weapon Mastery

Your training with weapons allows you to use the Mastery property of two kinds of weapons of your choice with
which you have proficiency, such as Daggers and Longswords.
Whenever you finish a Long Rest, you can change the kinds of weapons you chose. For example, you could switch
to using the Mastery properties of Scimitars and Shortswords.
