You've got all the bone you need right inside your arm, why not just cut out the middle man (the staff) and just cast directly from your hand with a jewel?
It's a bit of a lazy cop-out (My mage, capable of throwing giant explosions with his mind, can never be unarmed without you cutting off my hands!) but it could probably work if someone really wanted it to.
To sound a lot harsher than I'm intending to, that sort of loophole abuse reeks of someone wanting advantages without drawbacks.
That's good. I like trying to think of the most off the wall combat styles for hypothetical characters that I will never make. The RP community can rest easy knowing that these characters will either never see the light of day or only appear as a one off villain in a private RP event.
