Sorcerer

Whereas wizards acquire their arcane ability through intense study and clerics gain their powers through their devotion to the divine, the source of power for a sorcerer resides in their blood.

Sorcerer Tactics

In combat, sorcerers are challenging opponents due to their explosive capabilities. Although most sorcerers tend not to be physically superior against most foes, their affinity to magic grants them an uncanny resilience against many spells.

Infernal Sorcerers

Infernal sorcerers are the devilish counterpart to celestial sorcerers. Because of this, it is not uncommon for tieflings and other fiendish humanoids to naturally develop these abilities.

Infernal sorcerers also have been known to acquire their powers through contracts with devils in exchange for power. Although such encounters are similar to many infernal warlocks, they are less demanding in scope as they are not bound to serve an infernal patron. Instead, many devils grant this power in a much more passive manner as in many cases, the infernal magic in one's bloodline eventually corrupts the individual.

In other instances, infernal sorcerers are often the result of a fiendish curse or the side effect of a contract on one bloodline. Unfortunately, such individuals are viewed with suspicion due to the origins of their ability

Abyssal Sorcerers

Abyssal sorcerers are the demonic counterpart to the infernal sorcerer. In most circumstances, abyssal sorcerers are the results of demonic corruption, typically from one being exposed to one of the seemingly endless layers of the Abyss. In most circumstances, this corruption is a side effect of these hostile environments as the goal of most demons is to destroy all life. However, in rare instances, demonic lords may place a curse on ones's bloodline as a gift for true dedication

Fae Sorcerers

Fae sorcerers trace their magic to the wild and psychedlic plane of the Feywild These individuals tend to have an otherworldly charm and aura. Athough many Fey based races naturally can develop these abilities, many fae sorcerers acquire their powers from planar incursions to the Feywild or simply the shenanigans of a wayward Fey creature.

Wild Magic Sorcerer

Wild magic sorcerers are the embodiement of controlled chaos. The origins of their magic typically varies depending on the individuals as many sources have claimed from events such as planar incursions, spellstorms, arcane experimentation, or exposure to a strange magical artifact. Despite the seemingly endless sources of this power, the sorcerers are incredibly unpredictable as each time they cast a spell, there is a chance they could set off a chaotic chain reaction of magical effects.

Aberrant Sorcerers

These sorcerers are believed to have gained their abilities from encounters with Aberrations. Such encounters may included experimentation due to mind flayers while others may have been exposed with items or rifts from the Far Realm itself. These encounters can have varying magnitudes of effects such as telepathy, psionic, and physiological adaptations such as tentacles or multiple eyes. These transformations have also been known to have somewhat detrimental side effects (depending on the level of exposure) such as madness or a grotesque appearance.

Phoenix Sorcerers

Phoenix sorcerers possess a special connection to the element of fire. Individuals of this bloodline possess a powerful connection to this element due to a boon from a powerful elemental entity such as phoenix or genie. Although elementals tend to be the primary source of this elemental ability, some humanoids have learned to naturally manifest this ability through an enhanced natural connection to the elements, in a similar manner to druids.

Their innate fire magic even gives them the ability to set their eyes and hair ablaze with. They even have the ability to temporarily superheat their bodies to burn anyone who harms them. As their name suggests, phoenix sorcerers possess

Winter Sorcerers

These sorcerers possess a particular connection to snow and ice. Their mastery of the ice is believed to originate from a variety of sources such as elementals and or giant kin heritage. Others have attained these abilities through druidic rituals or boons from powerful entities attuned to ice such as dragons.

Their mastery of ice grants them an natural immunity its worse effects as they are able to use the elemental energy to fashion a protective aegis shielding them from future harm

Sea Sorcerers

Sea sorcerers have the unique abilities to bend water to their will. These sorcerers are able to conjure blades of water from thin air and form tidal waves to crash on their opponents.

Sea sorcerers possess the unique ability to alter their own physiology, taking the form of water instead granting them the ability to easily weave out of harms ways or dampen the harshest of attacks.
