Magic is themed and structured by the God's archetype.Wizards study and learn how to manipulate Magic like a tool. Structured and rigid applications to get consistent outcomes.Warlock - you bargained for Magic power that belonged to another, more powerful entity. Magic is rigidly defined by the Entity's abilities because, logically, the entity in question couldn't offer what they didnt have.Sorcerers - CAVEAT: DM needs to define the Cosmology of his/her world to define the Sorcerer. In a manner, if say, if you want easy hanging fruit, say that the Universe IS Magic. From Magic comes all the things. Sorcerers have a direct tap on that stuff, but it is distilled thought the Planes and through the Sorcerer so it takes a familiar 'shape' of Arcane Magic. Its your table.But,Lumping Sorcerers into Warlocks would be like lumping Fighters and Rogues together because they both 'use weapons'.Sorcerer class was perhaps a bit too vague in description by WotC. Maybe by design?</blockquote>
