I don't really consider that to be a "problem". You just need to decide what you want and make some choices, and you'll get exactly what you want.

You will definitely need a Thief who can pick locks and find traps, since your Fighter/Assassin will not have those abilities. Keep in mind that Assassins only get 15 thieving points per level, so it will take a while before your Fighter/Assassin will be able to backstab AND set traps successfully. Personally, I'd rather have a multi-class Fighter/Thief when I play TOB, since the Fighter High Level Abilities are so powerful. For example, a backstab combined with Critical Strike is better than a 7x backstab.

If your Thief/Mage is a "backup" Mage, then I guess you consider your Sorcerer to be your "Primary Mage". I think it's a mistake to look at it that way. A 9th level Thief dualled to a Conjurer (use Shadowkeeper) is every bit as impressive and powerful as a Sorcerer and doesn't take a backseat to anybody when I play. I recommend one for your sixth party member.
BTW, I don't think there's any way for you to get Blackrazor if your party leader is a Paladin, unless you're willing to let him become a fallen Paladin.
