Discordant Soul
Like scores of scorned sorcerors throughout history, you draw power from the conflict you sow among your enemies. Ever ready to disrupt, sorcerors of this origin make themselves known as troublemakers and malcontents. They use their magic to enchant and mislead their enemies, while shrouding their allies in the ensuing confusion. Discordant sorcerers ride the waves of chaos, turning the tide even when they seem surrounded by enemies. Pity any who slight these unpredictable spellcasters, for their affinity for revenge is born of a lineage of sour apples.
Your bloodline has close, strong ties to the unending winter found in the Frozen North. Your ancestors may have been allied with frost giants. They might have made a pact with the great demigods and Eidals that lurk within its frozen expanse. Perhaps your ancestors were devout followers of the late Goddess of Winter, Aneiren, and received her blessing.
Regardless of how you gained your magic, you are a creature of winter incarnate with ice running through your veins and the cold at your command.
You have been vested with cosmic forces of fate and destiny, able to catch glimpses of the future and past. This might be the act of the divine, the result of a previous prophecy, or perhaps merely the result of a fateful coincidence. A force such as fate is hard to contain, and manifests in you in not only powers of foretelling, but also in arcane spells and a slow-building understanding of the true nature of time.
Orchard Origin - Inar/The Verdant Faith/Verdana
Your magic is tied to the beauty and elegance of nature. Perhaps you obtained your magic from a mystical dryad, or instead stumbled across an ancient forest ritual. No matter how you obtained it, you're able to reflect this beauty in the flowers you create to safeguard your allies.
Song has always been a fundamental part of the cosmos; the harmonies of creation and destruction, the rhythms of change, the fundamental notes upon which all things material and magical are built upon. Primal Song is the name given to this primeval musical force, and it can provide great power to make and unmake. Bards tap into small portions of the Primal Song in much of their magic, but sorcerers of the Primal Song hold it in their very souls: music and creation incarnate, a willful force that longs to be heard.
Reckless Arcana - Remnant/The Order of Sigils/The Rebellion
For whatever reason, the innate magic that flows within you is of a heightened, volatile form. Perhaps the power manifested within you originated from a particularly powerful or unstable dimensional rift, or came to be after a life-threatening magic-related accident. Alternatively your bloodline may have a history of obsessive and dangerous practices that has enhanced their magical power at the expense of their bodies, and you purposely spill your own blood to empower your spellcasting.
Magic flows through your body like a torrential flood, and is nearly as dangerous to yourself as it is to your enemies. Sorcerers with power so unhinged often lead lives just as volatile, and often perish at young ages in violent accidents or self-sacrifice.
Touched by the Realm of Dreams and the Realm of Nightmares, you or someone in your family has connected with the beings and energy of those realms, and have become attuned to them like no other. You feel a great connection to your dreams and are often visibly and physically tired, as if your soul is attempting to return to those realms at every moment.
Swampheart - Vezenar/Grimwater
The swamps of the world are home to some of the most
adaptable creatures of the wild. You are no exception to this
rule, aside from the magic that courses throughout your
veins. It may have been the case that the wild magics that
reside in some of the world’s most ancient swamps, or that
you maybe had infused your blood with that of another entity
of the swamp you had called home. You are a sorcerer of the
swamp, and a powerful practitioner of magics that deal in
acids, poisons, and maneuverability through both water and
land, making you a great asset or a terrible foe.
Vampiric Soul - The Blood Court/The Sangulla Family
The dark magic of undeath is a path to great power for those who are willing to pay the price. Many of the most powerful undead creatures will grant their followers a portion of their dark sorcery in return for their service. Evil vampires, long dead mummy lords, and sinister liches have all been known to curse their most loyal followers with sorcerous abilities.
