Sorcerer

Golden eyes flashing, a human stretches out her hand and unleashes the dragonfire that burns in her veins. As an inferno rages around her foes, leathery wings spread from her back and she takes to the air.

Long hair whipped by a conjured wind, a half elf spreads his arms wide and throws his head back. Lifting him momentarily off the ground, a wave of magic surges up in him, through him, and out from him in a mighty blast of lightning.

Crouching behind a stalagmite, a halfling points a linger at a charging troglodyte. A blast of fire springs from her finger to strike the creature. She ducks back behind the rock formation with a grin, unaware that her wild magic has turned her skin bright blue.

Sorcerers carry a magical birthright conferred upon them by an exotic bloodline, some otherworldly influence, or exposure to unknown cosmic forces. One can't study sorcery as one learns a language, any more than one can learn to live a legendary life. No one chooses sorcery; the power chooses the sorcerer.

Cantrip Versatility

Whenever you gain a level in this class, you can replace one cantrip you learned from this Spellcasting feature with another cantrip from the sorcerer spell list.

Origin Spells

Each sorcerous origin has a list of associated spells. You learn these spells at the levels specified in the origin description. Origin spells do not count against the number of spells you know.

If you gain an origin spell that doesn't appear on the sorcerer spell list, the spell is nonetheless a sorcerer spell for you.

Any creature that enters the area for the first time or starts its turn within the area are subjected to the lingering effects of the spell and must make a saving throw to avoid the effect as if the effect had been cast again. Spells that deal damage deal half of their regular damage in the lingering area.

In addition, choose an affinity for the source of your divine power: good, evil, law, chaos, or neutrality. You learn an additional spell based on that affinity, as shown below.
