Orc is great if you want to fight with close range, Altmer's good in all type of magic also they have the speed advantage...

but since you want a magic and one handed weapon...

as a starter it's best if you use a Redguard, cuz they have 25 one handed level, and 20 destruction level in the start.

Altmers & Dunmers are good also.....

but anyway, any race can be good for any fighting type if you're Willing & Believe for it :)
