Int adds to skill points and several useful skills (Spellcraft, Knowledge), and Wisdom adds to Will saves and perception skills.Actually, in my own game, Wizards are getting a d6 too. I subscribe to the Monte Cook idea that a d4 is just to low for any adventuring class.Also bear in mind that this draft of this sorcerer also has a very limited spell list(s) to draw off of.So I dont think much better than the wizard is at all accurate.  Because not having enough spells known is the primary mechanical failing of the sorcerer. A lot of the time the versatility of spontaneous casting that people talk so much about is negated by access to only 1 or 2 spells of a given level, over a long period of time.All that being said, Ithink I am going to revise this. I think since I am having such trouble with the spell lists, I am going to have them use the usual list, but that additional spell must come from the bloodline list. I will probably tweak the abilities a bit also.</blockquote>
