Some Sorcerers can\u2019t name the origin of their power, while others trace it to strange events in their personal or family history. The blessing of a dragon or a dryad at a baby\u2019s birth or the strike of lightning from a clear sky might spark a Sorcerer\u2019s gift. So too might the gift of a deity, exposure to the strange magic of another plane of existence, or a glimpse into the inner workings of reality. Whatever the origin, the result is an indelible mark on the Sorcerer, a churning magic that can be passed down through generations.\r\n\r\nSorcerers don\u2019t learn magic; the raw, roiling power of magic is part of them. The essential art of a Sorcerer is learning to harness and channel that innate magic, allowing the Sorcerer to discover new and staggering ways to unleash their power. As Sorcerers master their innate magic, they grow more attuned to its origin, developing distinct powers that reflect its source.\r\n\r\nSorcerers are rare. Some family lines produce exactly one Sorcerer in every generation, but most of the time, the talents of sorcery appear as a fluke. People who have this magical power soon discover that it doesn\u2019t like to stay quiet. A Sorcerer\u2019s magic wants to be wielded.","becoming_level_1":"[ul]\r\n[li]Gain all the traits in the Core Sorcerer Traits table.[\/li]\r\n[li]Gain the Sorcerer\u2019s level 1 features, which are listed in the Sorcerer Features table.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\n","becoming_multiclass":"","featuretable":"[img:6170855|center|700]\r\n","class_features":"As a Sorcerer, you gain the following class features when you reach the specified Sorcerer levels. These features are listed in the Sorcerer Features table.\r\n[b][h1]Level 1: Spellcasting[\/h1]\r\n[\/b]\r\nDrawing from your innate magic, you can cast spells.\r\n\r\n[b]Cantrips. [\/b]You know four Sorcerer cantrips of your choice. Whenever you gain a Sorcerer level, you can replace one of your cantrips from this feature with another Sorcerer cantrip of your choice.\r\n\r\nWhen you reach Sorcerer levels 4 and 10, you learn another Sorcerer cantrip of your choice, as shown in the Cantrips column of the Sorcerer Features table.\r\n\r\n[b]Spell Slots.[\/b] The Sorcerer Features table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your level 1+ spells. You regain all expended slots when you finish a Long Rest.\r\n\r\n[b]Prepared Spells of Level 1+.[\/b] You prepare the list of level 1+ spells that are available for you to cast with this feature. To start, choose two level 1 Sorcerer spells.\r\n\r\nThe number of spells on your list increases as you gain Sorcerer levels, as shown in the Prepared Spells column of the Sorcerer Features table. Whenever that number increases, choose additional Sorcerer spells until the number of spells on your list matches the number in the Sorcerer Features table. The chosen spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For example, if you\u2019re a level 3 Sorcerer, your list of prepared spells can include six Sorcerer spells of level 1 or 2 in any combination.\r\n\r\nIf another Sorcerer feature gives you spells that you always have prepared, those spells don\u2019t count against the number of spells you can prepare with this feature, but those spells otherwise count as Sorcerer spells for you.\r\n\r\n[b]Changing Your Prepared Spells.[\/b] Whenever you gain a Sorcerer level, you can replace one spell on your list with another Sorcerer spell for which you have spell slots.\r\n\r\n[b]Spellcasting Ability.[\/b] Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your Sorcerer spells.\r\n\r\n[b]Spellcasting Focus. [\/b]You can use an Arcane Focus as a Spellcasting Focus for your Sorcerer spells.\r\n\r\n[h1]Level 1: Innate Sorcery[\/h1]\r\nAn event in your past left an indelible mark on you, infusing you with simmering magic. As a Bonus Action, you can unleash that magic for 1 minute, during which you gain the following benefits:\r\n[ul]\r\n[li]The spell save DC of your Sorcerer spells increases by 1.[\/li]\r\n[li]You have Advantage on the attack rolls of Sorcerer spells you cast.[\/li]\r\n[\/ul]\r\nYou can use this feature twice, and you regain all expended uses of it when you finish a Long Rest.\r\n[h1]Level 2: Font of Magic[\/h1]\r\nYou can tap into the wellspring of magic within yourself. This wellspring is represented by Sorcery Points, which allow you to create a variety of magical effects.\r\n\r\nYou have 2 Sorcery Points, and you gain more as you reach higher levels, as shown in the Sorcery Points column of the Sorcerer Features table. You can\u2019t have more Sorcery Points than the number shown in the table for your level. You regain all expended Sorcery Points when you finish a Long Rest.\r\n\r\nYou can use your Sorcery Points to fuel the options below, along with other features, such as Metamagic, that use those points.\r\n\r\n[b]Converting Spell Slots to Sorcery Points.[\/b] You can expend a spell slot to gain a number of Sorcery Points equal to the slot\u2019s level (no action required).\r\n\r\n[b]Creating Spell Slots.[\/b] As a Bonus Action, you can transform unexpended Sorcery Points into one spell slot. The Creating Spell Slots table shows the cost of creating a spell slot of a given level, and it lists the minimum Sorcerer level you must be to create a slot. You can create a spell slot no higher than level 5.\r\n\r\nAny spell slot you create with this feature vanishes when you finish a Long Rest.\r\n\r\n[b]Creating Spell Slots[\/b]\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n[table][tr][th]Spell Slot Level[\/th][th]Sorcery Point Cost[\/th][th]Min.

You use the chosen options to temporarily modify spells you cast. To use an option, you must spend the number of Sorcery Points that it costs.\r\n\r\nYou can use only one Metamagic option on a spell when you cast it unless otherwise noted in one of those options.\r\n\r\nWhenever you gain a Sorcerer level, you can replace one of your Metamagic options with one you don\u2019t know. You gain two more options at Sorcerer level 10 and two more at Sorcerer level 17.\r\n[h1]Level 3: Sorcerer Subclass[\/h1]\r\nYou gain a Sorcerer subclass of your choice. A subclass is a specialization that grants you features at certain Sorcerer levels. For the rest of your career, you gain each of your subclass\u2019s features that are of your Sorcerer level or lower.\r\n[h1]Level 4: Ability Score Improvement[\/h1]\r\nYou gain the Ability Score Improvement feat or another feat of your choice for which you qualify. You gain this feature again at Sorcerer levels 8, 12, and 16.\r\n[h1]Level 5: Sorcerous Restoration[\/h1]\r\nWhen you finish a Short Rest, you can regain expended Sorcery Points, but no more than a number equal to half your Sorcerer level (round down). Once you use this feature, you can\u2019t do so again until you finish a Long Rest.\r\n[h1]Level 7: Sorcery Incarnate[\/h1]\r\nIf you have no uses of Innate Sorcery left, you can use it if you spend 2 Sorcery Points when you take the Bonus Action to activate it.\r\n\r\nIn addition, while your Innate Sorcery feature is active, you can use up to two of your Metamagic options on each spell you cast.\r\n[h1]Level 19: Epic Boon[\/h1]\r\nYou gain an Epic Boon feat or another feat of your choice for which you qualify.\r\n[h1]Level 20: Arcane Apotheosis[\/h1]\r\nWhile your Innate Sorcery feature is active, you can use one Metamagic option on each of your turns without spending Sorcery Points on it.\r\n[h1]Metamagic Options[\/h1]\r\nThe following options are available to your Metamagic feature. The options are presented in alphabetical order.\r\n[h3]Careful Spell[\/h3]\r\nCost: 1 Sorcery Point\r\n\r\nWhen you cast a spell that forces other creatures to make a saving throw, you can protect some of those creatures from the spell\u2019s full force. To do so, spend 1 Sorcery Point and choose a number of those creatures up to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one creature). A chosen creature automatically succeeds on its saving throw against the spell, and it takes no damage if it would normally take half damage on a successful save.\r\n[h3]Distant Spell[\/h3]\r\nCost: 1 Sorcery Point\r\n\r\nWhen you cast a spell that has a range of at least 5 feet, you can spend 1 Sorcery Point to double the spell\u2019s range. Or when you cast a spell that has a range of Touch, you can spend 1 Sorcery Point to make the spell\u2019s range 30 feet.\r\n[h3]Empowered Spell[\/h3]\r\nCost: 1 Sorcery Point\r\n\r\nWhen you roll damage for a spell, you can spend 1 Sorcery Point to reroll a number of the damage dice up to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one), and you must use the new rolls.\r\n\r\nYou can use Empowered Spell even if you\u2019ve already used a different Metamagic option during the casting of the spell.\r\n[h3]Extended Spell[\/h3]\r\nCost: 1 Sorcery Point\r\n\r\nWhen you cast a spell that has a duration of 1 minute or longer, you can spend 1 Sorcery Point to double its duration to a maximum duration of 24 hours.\r\n\r\nIf the affected spell requires Concentration, you have Advantage on any saving throw you make to maintain that Concentration.\r\n[h3]Heightened Spell[\/h3]\r\nCost: 2 Sorcery Points\r\n\r\nWhen you cast a spell that forces a creature to make a saving throw, you can spend 2 Sorcery Points to give one target of the spell Disadvantage on saves against the spell.\r\n[h3]Quickened Spell[\/h3]\r\nCost: 2 Sorcery Points\r\n\r\nWhen you cast a spell that has a casting time of an action, you can spend 2 Sorcery Points to change the casting time to a Bonus Action for this casting. You can\u2019t modify a spell in this way if you\u2019ve already cast a level 1+ spell on the current turn, nor can you cast a level 1+ spell on this turn after modifying a spell in this way.\r\n[h3]Seeking Spell[\/h3]\r\nCost: 1 Sorcery Point\r\n\r\nIf you make an attack roll for a spell and miss, you can spend 1 Sorcery Point to reroll the d20, and you must use the new roll.\r\n\r\nYou can use Seeking Spell even if you\u2019ve already used a different Metamagic option during the casting of the spell.\r\n[h3]Subtle Spell[\/h3]\r\nCost: 1 Sorcery Point\r\n\r\nWhen you cast a spell, you can spend 1 Sorcery Point to cast it without any Verbal, Somatic, or Material components, except Material components that are consumed by the spell or that have a cost specified in the spell.\r\n[h3]Transmuted Spell[\/h3]\r\nCost: 1 Sorcery Point\r\n\r\nWhen you cast a spell that deals a type of damage from the following list, you can spend 1 Sorcery Point to change that damage type to one of the other listed types: Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, Poison, Thunder.\r\n[h3]Twinned Spell[\/h3]\r\nCost: 1 Sorcery Point\r\n\r\nWhen you cast a spell, such as Charm Person, that can be cast with a higher-level spell slot to target an additional creature, you can spend 1 Sorcery Point to increase the spell\u2019s effective level by 1.","spells":"","details":"","subclasses":"A Sorcerer subclass is a specialization that grants you features at certain Sorcerer levels, as specified in the subclass.\r\n[br]\r\n@[Aberrant Sorcery](profession:1c46aaa5-e350-47a0-a234-6dcf4aa59a15)\r\n[br]\r\n@[Draconic Sorcery](profession:91b6d0b1-f908-400e-aa7c-ba25f6ce54b6)\u00a0[b]**RESTRICTED**\r\n[br][\/b]\r\n@[Wild Magic Sorcery](profession:8f81c77a-cfe6-4491-b5ce-89fedba4fa12)\r\n[br] ","subclasslist":"","imageid":"","source":"Player's Handbook (2024)","vintage":"1","tags":"","isShared":"on","templateId":"17142","blockId":"1502951","world":"a3307211-a6a7-4a30-9aac-e823d7fe9335","folder":"34148"}
