Favored Soul (again), Phoenix Sorcery, Sea Sorcery, Earth Sorcery.
Could this be the start of Elementalists?

I have actually played a Favored Soul in 3.5 from level 1 to 20 (Shackled City Campaign) and this new version does't work for me. Here is what I would do instead...
Favored Soul
1st level:
- Supernatural Resilience is unchanged.
- Lose "Favored by the Gods".
- Move Blessed Countenance to 1st level.
- Add light and medium armor proficiency, shield proficiency and proficiency with one weapon of the player's choice.
- Instead of adding access to the Cleric list the Cleric list replaces the Sorcerer list. The original Favored Soul used Cleric spells.
- Holy symbol is used as a spell casting focus, obviously.
6th level:
- Extra Attack
14th level*:
- Gain wings. Feathered or Bat-like depending on alignment.
- Divine Purity is unchanged.
18th level*:
- Damage Resistance vs. bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing from non-magical attacks.
- Unearthly Recovery is unchanged.
* The loss of Sorcerer spells is a big hit in my opinion, so this allows for extra power to be added to the subclass at 14th and 18th level.
Edit: Forgot to add shield proficiency.
True, but it might add alternatives, like the Sorcerer who can use sorcery points for something other than metamagic, for instance. Since sorcerers know relatively few spells, a sorcerer sub-class with many alternate spells added to it's list could conceivably choose from among just those spells, in essence removing the usual sorcerer list.Problem is, subclasses cannot remove or replace, only add.
Are there any obvious cleric spells that combine well with metamagic?

IDK, I thought you were wishing sub-classes could remove things from the parent class?Well, but why remove the option to pick sorcerer spells?
