Add mage armor to the robe magus' spell list as a first level magus spell, and add it to his spell book as an additional starting spell. At 4th level, the robe magus becomes a master at using force armors, and the armor bonus of mage armor and bracers of armor stack when worn by a robe magus. In addition, a robe magus gains a +1 modifier to the armor bonus provided by mage armor at 7th level.
