Metabolic Weakening– At 14 th level you are now able to affect the blood of others. You must take a long rest before you are able to use this ability again. If the target fails, you regain half of your Sorcery points back and the target takes 3d6 damage. If the target succeeds, you are unable to regain any Sorcery points. The designated target must succeed a Constitution save. Two- You can attempt to pull the blood out of another target. This can be accomplished one of two ways: One- by cutting on your own flesh with a ceremonial dagger you regain 1d6 Sorcery points back, but take that same amount as damage. Power of Blood– At 6 th level you have the ability to regain lost Sorcery points by pulling the energy out of blood. At level 10 you can spend 4 sorcery points and not need to consume food or water for 24 hours. By spending 2 sorcery points you only need to consume half the needed food and water per day. Metabolic Control– At 1 st level you are able to slow down your metabolism. For every HD point spent, add an 1d4 damage to that spell (cannot sacrifice more HD than the sorcerer’s level). Did this power come from your mother or father being involved in a dark ritual? Were you cursed while still in the womb? Or still even a darker design meant for you? Whatever the reason, you use this power to wield the might and awe of the arcane.Įmpowered by Blood– At 1 st level you are able to tap into the life essence of your blood and sacrifice a number of HD from your Hit Dice pool to gain extra power on spells that deal damage. No one is sure what has given this rare and terrifying power, but you use it to fuel your abilities and spells.

Your innate magical comes from the vital component of nearly all living creatures: blood. I decided to take some of the same concepts and ideas and port them over to a sorcerous origin for 5e. I even drew inspiration from the class for my Hubris game. I dug it in Avatar… love it in Dragon Age… and dug the Blood Mage prestige class in the 3.5 days.
