[QUOTE="The Shadow, post: 6010378, member: 16760"] Very interesting! Now, does this mean that different sorcerers will have different spell lists? I think it almost has to - the draconic sorcerer list just doesn't seem to match up to some of the other origins we're hearing about. I would certainly expect a divine "sorcerer" to be capable of at least some minor healing, for example. The name 'sorcerer' seems rather odd for this collection of classes now. And that's what it is - when the hit die, proficiencies, and indeed just about everything but Willpower change with origin, they're basically distinct classes. What other name could be used, though? I suspect that 'sorcerers' will often be identified by their origin rather than their official class. I like the idea of specificity in pacts, provided they give us lots of guidance in making our own. I mean, the Verenestra pact is cool, but it's far from the only type of fey pact I can imagine. (Also: A pact with the githyanki lich-queen?! [I]How awesome is that?![/I] Answer: Really, really awesome! At least if they do it remotely right.) [/QUOTE]
