Message: <blockquote data-quote="tuxgeo" data-source="post: 7099091" data-attributes="member: 61026">Yes, I did read the full description before posting. Thanks anyway. . . .So if I create a Favored Soul Sorcerer PC named Grabal the Wondrous using the second or third version, that PC will be able to learn four (4) Cantrips and two (2) 1st-level Spells as a 1st-level character. Since this is a Favored Soul Sorcerer of the 2nd or 3rd version, Grabal gets to choose his Cantrips and Spells from the combined entries of both the usual Cleric spell list and the usual Sorcerer spell list. For the same of creating an example, let's say he chooses: CANTRIPS: Guidance, Sacred Flame, Spare the Dying, and Thaumaturgy. SPELLS: Bless, Healing Word. Each of those four (4) Cantrips and each of those two (2) Spells are from the usual Cleric spell list -- and none of them are on the usual Sorcerer spell list.This is allowed according to the 2nd and 3rd versions. Now, as Grabal the Wondrous continues to advance in further Sorcerer levels, he could continue to learn new spells of higher levels; and each time he does so, he could continue to take spells that are on the usual Cleric list but not on the usual Sorcerer list. The 2nd and 3rd versions allow that; and if the player of Grabal the Wondrous wants to have that PC choose those spells, that can happen. It is allowed.Of course, some other player could create a different Favored Soul Sorcerer PC who takes some Cantrips and some Spells from each of the usual Cleric list and the usual Sorcerer list; and that's allowed, too. Read what I said again: I wasn't saying it was only allowed for a Favored Soul Sorcerer to take Cleric spells; instead, I was saying it was allowed for a Favored Soul Sorcerer to take only Cleric spells. The difference between those two statements lies in the location of the word "only" within the sentence. Location determines what is being modified by the adverb "only": if placed near the verb "allowed," then "allowed" is being modified; but if placed near the verb "take," then "take" is being modified.</blockquote>
