  Yea that's actually really neat role play. I don't think I'd have a problem with it cuz I can really get into a role haha. As far as the half-time in Scout aspect, I think this will happen naturally because the scout wont engage in nearly as much battle as the Mage will.

  Depending upon how you look at it... everyone has done this build: by playing more than one character or ever reading a strategy guide.

  Maybe I am missing something, but it seems like playing an entirely seperate character just to figure out what's in a dungeon so that some OTHER character can clear it is a bit much.  Couldn't you accomplish the same thing by imagining your other playthroughs are him seeing into another's life, or just looking a dungeon up in a strategy guide and imagine he has scried across time and space to understand the workings of a place?

  I guess the whole idea of playing two characters at once is lost on me.  I don't really mean to be a jerk, and I hope I'm not, I just can't get into this one.

  Also, the writing style is really hard for me to parse!  It took me until almost the end of the build to even figure out what you were talking about because of some very confusing sentences where you talk about it.  Take this sentence, for instance: "The function which makes this oracle divided is that his sights are aspects of himself all adding up to that original whole that was there before he got split, so this main oracle has the ability to see into other time streams and take control over his aspects life to use it for his own purpose."  Wow.  After reading it three or four times, I finally got the gist of it: "The oracle has the power to see into other times and other places.  He does this, by dividing himself into different aspects across timestreams and seeing through their eyes."
