Here's the raw, I can clean it up later.

S orcerer
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 w ings 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
o f lightning.
Crouching behind a stalagmite, a halfling points a
finger 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 m agic has turned her skin bright blue.
Sorcerers carry a m agical birthright conferred
upon them by an exotic bloodline, som e otherworldly
influence, or exposure to unknow n cosm ic forces.
One can ’t study sorcery as one learns a language, any
m ore than one can learn to live a legendary life. No one
ch ooses sorcery; the pow er ch ooses the sorcerer.
Magic is a part of every sorcerer, suffusing body, mind,
and spirit with a latent pow er that waits to be tapped.
S om e sorcerers wield m agic that springs from an
ancient bloodline infused with the m agic of dragons.
Others carry a raw, uncontrolled m agic within them,
a chaotic storm that manifests in unexpected ways.
The appearance of sorcerous pow ers is wildly
unpredictable. S om e draconic bloodlines produce
exactly one sorcerer in every generation, but in other
lines of descent every individual is a sorcerer. Most
o f the time, the talents o f sorcery appear as apparent
flukes. S om e sorcerers can’t name the origin of their
power, while others trace it to strange events in their
ow n lives. The touch of a demon, the blessing of a
dryad at a baby’s birth, or a taste of the water from
a mysterious spring might spark the gift of sorcery.
S o too might the gift of a deity of m agic, exposure
to the elemental forces of the Inner Planes or the
maddening chaos of Limbo, or a glim pse into the
inner workings of reality.
Sorcerers have no use for the spellbooks and ancient
tom es of m agic lore that w izards rely on, nor do they
rely on a patron to grant their spells as w arlocks do.
By learning to harness and channel their own inborn
magic, they can discover new and staggering ways
to unleash that power.
U n e x p l a i n e d P o w e r s
Sorcerers are rare in the world, and it’s unusual to find
a sorcerer w ho is not involved in the adventuring life
in som e way. People with magical pow er seething in
their veins soon discover that the pow er doesn’t like to
stay quiet. A sorcerer’s m agic wants to be wielded, and
it has a tendency to spill out in unpredictable ways if
it isn’t called on.

Sorcerers often
have obscure or quixotic
motivations driving them
to adventure. Som e seek a greater
understanding of the m agical force that infuses
them, or the answer to the mystery of its origin. Others
hope to find a way to get rid of it, or to unleash its full
potential. Whatever their goals, sorcerers are every bit
as useful to an adventuring party as wizards, making
up for a comparative lack of breadth in their magical
knowledge with enorm ous flexibility in using the
spells they know.
C r e a t i n g a S o r c e r e r
The most important question to consider when creating
your sorcerer is the origin of your power. As a starting
character, you'll choose an origin that ties to a draconic
bloodline or the influence of wild magic, but the exact
source of your pow er is up to you to decide. Is it a family
curse, passed down to you from distant ancestors? Or
did som e extraordinary event leave you blessed with
inherent m agic but perhaps scarred as well?
H ow do you feel about the magical pow er coursing
through you? D o you em brace it, try to master it, or
revel in its unpredictable nature? Is it a blessing or
a curse? Did you seek it out, or did it find you? Did
you have the option to refuse it, and do you wish you
had? W hat do you intend to do with it? Perhaps you
feel like you’ve been given this pow er for som e lofty
purpose. Or you might decide that the pow er gives you
the right to do what you want, to take what you want
from those w ho lack such power. Perhaps your pow er
links you to a pow erful individual in the w orld—the fey
creature that blessed you at birth, the dragon w ho put
a drop of its blood into your veins, the lich who created
you as an experiment, or the deity w ho chose you to
carry this power.
Q u i c k B u i l d

S p e l l c a s t i n g
An event in your past, or in the life of a parent or
ancestor, left an indelible mark on you, infusing you with
arcane m agic. This font of magic, whatever its origin,
fuels your spells. See chapter 10 for the general rules of
spellcasting and chapter 11 for the sorcerer spell list.
C a n t r ip s
At 1st level, you know four cantrips of your choice from
the sorcerer spell list. You learn additional sorcerer
cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as show n in the
Cantrips Known colum n of the Sorcerer table.
S p e l l S l o t s
The Sorcerer table show s how many spell slots you
have to cast your spells of 1st level and higher. To cast
one of these sorcerer spells, you must expend a slot of
the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell
slots w hen you finish a long rest.
For example, if you know the 1st-level spell burning
hands and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot
available, you can cast burning hands using either slot.
S pells K n o w n o f 1s t L e v e l a n d H ig h e r
You know two 1st-level spells o f your choice from the
sorcerer spell list.
The Spells K now n colum n of the Sorcerer table
show s when you learn more sorcerer spells of your
choice. Each of these spells must be of a level for which
you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 3rd
level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st
or 2nd level.
Additionally, when you gain a level in this class,
you can choose one of the sorcerer spells you know
and replace it with another spell from the sorcerer
spell list, which also must be of a level for w hich you
have spell slots.
S p e l l c a s t in g A b il it y
Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your sorcerer
spells, since the pow er of your m agic relies on your
ability to project your w ill into the world. You use your
Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting
ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier
when setting the saving throw DC for a sorcerer spell
you cast and w hen making an attack roll with one.
Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus +
your Charisma modifier
Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus +
your Charisma modifier
S p e l l c a s t in g F o c u s
You can use an arcane focus (found in chapter 5) as a
spellcasting focus for your sorcerer spells.
S o r c e r o u s O r i g i n
Choose a sorcerous origin, which describes the
source of your innate magical power: D raconic
Bloodline or W ild Magic, both detailed at the end of the
class description.
Your choice grants you features when you choose it at
1st level and again at 6th, 14th, and 18th level.
F o n t o f M a g i c
At 2nd level, you tap into a deep wellspring of magic
within yourself. This wellspring is represented by
sorcery points, which allow you to create a variety of
magical effects.
S o r c e r y P o in t s
You have 2 sorcery points, and you gain m ore as you
reach higher levels, as shown in the Sorcery Points
colum n of the Sorcerer table. You can never have
m ore sorcery points than shown on the table for your
level. You regain all spent sorcery points when you
finish a long rest.
F l e x ib l e C a s t i n g
You can use your sorcery points to gain additional spell
slots, or sacrifice spell slots to gain additional sorcery
points. You learn other ways to use your sorcery points

M e t a m a g i c
At 3rd level, you gain the ability to twist your spells
to suit your needs. You gain two of the following
M etamagic options of your choice. You gain another one

You can use only one M etam agic option on a spell
w hen you cast it, unless otherwise noted.
C a r e f u l S p e l l
W hen you cast a spell that forces other creatures to make
a saving throw, you can protect som e of those creatures
from the spell’s full force. To do so, you spend 1 sorcery
point and choose a number o f those creatures up to your
Charisma modifier (minimum of one creature). A chosen
creature automatically succeeds on its saving throw
against the spell.
D i s t a n t S pe ll
W hen you cast a spell that has a range of 5 feet or
greater, you can spend 1 sorcery point to double the
range of the spell.
W hen you cast a spell that has a range of touch, you
can spend 1 sorcery point to make the range of the
spell 30 feet.
E m p o w e r e d S p e l l
W hen you roll damage for a spell, you can spend 1
sorcery point to reroll a number of the damage dice up

casting of the spell.
E x t e n d e d S pell

W hen you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th,
and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your

At 20th level, you regain 4 expended sorcery points
w henever you finish a short rest.
Sorcerous O rigins
Different sorcerers claim different origins for their
innate magic. Although many variations exist, most
of these origins fall into two categories: a draconic
bloodline and wild magic.
D r a c o n i c B l o o d l i n e
Your innate m agic com es from draconic m agic that was
mingled with your blood or that o f your ancestors. M ost
often, sorcerers with this origin trace their descent
back to a mighty sorcerer of ancient times w ho made a
bargain with a dragon or who might even have claim ed
a dragon parent. S om e of these bloodlines are well
established in the world, but m ost are obscure. Any
given sorcerer could be the first of a new bloodline, as a
result of a pact or som e other exceptional circum stance.
D r a g o n A n c e s t o r
At 1st level, you choose one type of dragon as your
ancestor. The damage type associated with each dragon
is used by features you gain later.
D r a c o n i c A n c e s t r y
Dragon Damage Type
Black Acid
Blue Lightning
Brass Fire
Bronze Lightning
Copper Acid
Cold Fire
Green Poison
Red Fire
Silver Cold
White Cold
You can speak, read, and write D raconic. Additionally,
whenever you make a Charisma check when interacting
with dragons, your proficiency bonus is doubled if it
applies to the check.
D r a c o n ic R e sil ie n c e
As m agic flows through your body, it causes physical
traits of your dragon ancestors to emerge. At 1st level,
your hit point maximum increases by 1 and increases by
1 again whenever you gain a level in this class.
Additionally, parts of your skin are covered by a thin
sheen of dragon-like scales. W hen you aren’t wearing
armor, your AC equals 13 + your Dexterity modifier.
E l e m e n t a l A f f i n i t y
Starting at 6th level, when you cast a spell that deals
damage of the type associated with your draconic
ancestry, add your Charisma modifier to that damage.
At the sam e time, you can spend 1 sorcery point to gain
resistance to that damage type for 1 hour.
D r a g o n W i n g s
At 14th level, you gain the ability to sprout a pair of
dragon wings from your back, gaining a flying speed
equal to your current speed. You can create these w ings
as a bonus action on your turn. They last until you
dism iss them as a bonus action on your turn.
You can’t manifest your w ings while w earing armor
unless the arm or is made to accom m odate them, and
clothing not made to accom m odate your w ings might
be destroyed when you manifest them.
D r a c o n i c P r e s e n c e
Beginning at 18th level, you can channel the dread
presence of your dragon ancestor, causing those around
you to becom e awestruck or frightened. As an action,
you can spend 5 sorcery points to draw on this power
and exude an aura of awe or fear (your choice) to a
distance of 60 feet. For 1 minute or until you lose your
concentration (as if you w ere casting a concentration
spell), each hostile creature that starts its turn in this
aura must succeed on a W isdom saving throw or be
charm ed (if you chose awe) or frightened (if you chose
fear) until the aura ends. A creature that succeeds on
this saving throw is im mune to your aura for 24 hours.
W i l d M a g i c
Your innate m agic com es from the wild forces of chaos
that underlie the order of creation. You might have
endured exposure to som e form o f raw magic, perhaps
through a planar portal leading to Limbo, the Elemental
Planes, or the mysterious Far Realm. Perhaps you
were blessed by a pow erful fey creature or marked by a
demon. Or your magic could be a fluke of your birth, with
no apparent cause or reason. However it cam e to be, this
chaotic m agic churns within you, waiting for any outlet.
W i l d M a g i c S u r g e
Starting w hen you choose this origin at 1st level, your
spellcasting can unleash surges of untamed magic.
Immediately after you cast a sorcerer spell of 1st level
or higher, the DM can have you roll a d20. If you roll a
1, roll on the W ild Magic Surge table to create a random
magical effect.
T id e s o f C h a o s
Starting at 1st level, you can manipulate the forces of
chance and chaos to gain advantage on one attack roll,
ability check, or saving throw. O nce you do so, you must
finish a long rest before you can use this feature again.
Any time before you regain the use of this feature, the
DM can have you roll on the W ild Magic Surge table
immediately after you cast a sorcerer spell of 1st level or
higher. You then regain the use of this feature.
B e n d L u c k
Starting at 6th level, you have the ability to twist fate
using your w ild magic. W hen another creature you can
see m akes an attack roll, an ability check, or a saving
throw, you can use your reaction and spend 2 sorcery
points to roll 1d4 and apply the number rolled as a
bonus or penalty (your choice) to the creature’s roll. You
can do so after the creature rolls but before any effects
of the roll occur.
C o n t r o l l e d C h a o s
At 14th level, you gain a m odicum of control over the
surges of your wild magic. W henever you roll on the
W ild M agic Surge table, you can roll twice and use
either number.
S p e l l B o m b a r d m e n t
Beginning at 18th level, the harmful energy of your
spells intensifies. W hen you roll damage for a spell and
roll the highest number possible on any of the dice,
choose one of those dice, roll it again and add that roll to
the damage. You can use the feature only once per turn.
