Sorcerer PRCs

[Corlon]

I've been looking for a good sorcerer prc lately, and I can't really find one.

I like my PRCs to have some interesting abilities that you can use (so not the elemental savant with + to dc, and elemental resistance, immunity to sleep and stuff), and I like them to, usually anyway, not cause the character to be a freak (geomancer, alienist, etc.) and in spell casting, I usually like +1 to spells every level.

That's a bit heavy criteria, but I was wondering what good PRCs you like for your sorcerers?

Eldritch master, for way-cool flavour.

i know it's called ArchMage, but sorceror works really well for it, especially if your DM is allowing metamagic rods, or a metamagic varient rule. i had one before who was unstoppable.

So that's a no on dragon disciples then.

I've always been a big fan of the PGtF's Incantatrix PrC, and I enjoy the War Wizard PrC (despite it's name) for a good long range army-killin' Sorcerer type.

Though I'd recommend the Shadowcrafter (FR-Underdark) for a great shadow conjuration/evocation caster. A great series of spells, especially for a Sorcerer. This PrC is at the top of my list for my next Sorcerer character.

The incantatrix is a very sorcerous PrC and now it's even more sorcerer friendly, since you don't even have to get a cross class skill to 8 ranks to qualify for it.

Or you could check out the Player's Guide to Wizards, Bards and Sorcerers by Sword and Sorcery Studios. It has all kinds of nifty PrCs in it, like the Angelblooded:

A sorcerer of celestial descent who gains access to a small number of divine spells, grows wings (fluffy, feathery type), can use his spell slots to boost his party cleric's turning and has a familiar with the celestial template, among other things

My sorcerer is currently using a PrC from the S&S book called "Adept of the Flame" - albeit heavily modified downwards - by the book it had an insane power level.

We've called it "Servant of the sacred fire" in our campaign. The key bits that made this interesting were

entry cost: lose 2 CON in the ritual that turns your blood into ephemeral fire.

* gradually increasing fire resistance, eventually receiving immunity

* at 6th level half of all fire damage is divine damage and thus not affected by fire resistance (rather necessary if you want to specialise as a fire user!)

* eventually those who strike you with natural weapons take fire damage as your fiery blood spurts out over them.

Just a little sidenote.

Am I the only one who finds it weird, that a class, that is based on turning you into a 'living torch' () reduces the amount of fire damage you do?

I mean, yeah, it's surely convenient, but seems a bit out of place. Of course, if one is stressing that sacred part of the PrC...
