In the ever-changing tapestry of Faerun, where magic flows like the currents of the sea and ancient powers lie dormant beneath the earth, there exists a class of individuals who are born with an innate connection to the arcane energies that shape the world: the sorcerers. Masters of raw magical power, sorcerers are conduits of mystical energy, wielding spells with a natural ease that sets them apart from other practitioners of the arcane arts.
Sorcerers are not bound by the rigid structures of traditional spellcasting; instead, they draw upon the untamed forces of magic that course through their veins, shaping spells with sheer force of will and instinctual understanding. They are catalysts of change, capable of wielding elemental forces and reshaping reality itself with but a gesture and a word.
Though sorcerers often walk a solitary path, their power and potential are undeniable. Many sorcerers are driven by a thirst for knowledge and a desire to unlock the secrets of their magical heritage, delving into ancient tomes and forgotten ruins in search of arcane wisdom.
Sorcerers come in many forms, from fire-wielding pyromancers to enigmatic shadowmancers and storm-wranglers. They are the architects of reality, shaping the world around them with their boundless creativity and unyielding determination.
In a world where magic is both a gift and a curse, sorcerers stand as living conduits of arcane energy, channeling the forces of creation and destruction with unparalleled skill and finesse. With their innate talent and unwavering resolve, sorcerers are the true embodiment of the ever-changing and unpredictable nature of magic in Faerun.

An event in your past, or in the life of a parent or ancestor, left an indelible mark on you, infusing you with arcane magic. This font of magic, whatever its origin, fuels your spells.
Cantrips
At 1st level, you know four cantrips of your choice from the sorcerer spell list. You learn additional sorcerer cantrips of your choice at higher levels, as shown in the Cantrips Known column of the Sorcerer table.Spell Slots
The Sorcerer table shows how many spell slots you have to cast your sorcerer spells of 1st level and higher. To cast one of these sorcerer spells, you must expend a slot of the spell’s level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. For example, if you know the 1st-level spell burning hands and have a 1st-level and a 2nd-level spell slot available, you can cast burning hands using either slot.Spells Known of 1st Level and Higher
You know two 1st-level spells of your choice from the sorcerer spell list. The Spells Known column of the Sorcerer table shows when you learn more sorcerer spells of your choice. Each of these spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For instance, when you reach 3rd level in this class, you can learn one new spell of 1st or 2nd level. Additionally, when you gain a level in this class, you can choose one of the sorcerer spells you know and replace it with another spell from the sorcerer spell list, which also must be of a level for which you have spell slots.Spellcasting Ability
Charisma is your spellcasting ability for your sorcerer spells, since the power of your magic relies on your ability to project your will into the world. You use your Charisma whenever a spell refers to your spellcasting ability. In addition, you use your Charisma modifier when setting the saving throw DC for a sorcerer spell you cast and when making an attack roll with one. Spell save DC = 8 + your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifier Spell attack modifier = your proficiency bonus + your Charisma modifierSpellcasting Focus
You can use an arcane focus as a spellcasting focus for your sorcerer spells.
At 2nd level, you tap into a deep wellspring of magic within yourself. This wellspring is represented by sorcery points, which allow you to create a variety of magical effects.
- Sorcery Points. You have 2 sorcery points, and you gain more as you reach higher levels, as shown in the Sorcery Points column of the Sorcerer table. You can never have more sorcery points than shown on the table for your level. You regain all spent sorcery points when you finish a long rest.
- Flexible Casting. You can use your sorcery points to gain additional spell slots, or sacrifice spell slots to gain additional sorcery points. You learn other ways to use your sorcery points as you reach higher levels.
- Creating Spell Slots. You can transform unexpended sorcery points into one spell slot as a bonus action on your turn. The Creating Spell Slots table shows the cost of creating a spell slot of a given level. You can create spell slots no higher in level than 5th. Any spell slot you create with this feature vanishes when you finish a long rest.
- Converting a Spell Slot to Sorcery Points. As a bonus action on your turn, you can expend one spell slot and gain a number of sorcery points equal to the slot’s level.
| Creating Spell Slots | |
|---|---|
| Spell Slot Level | Sorcery Point Cost |
| 1st | 2 |
| 2nd | 3 |
| 3rd | 5 |
| 4th | 6 |
| 5th | 7 |
At 3rd level, you gain the ability to twist your spells to suit your needs. You gain two of the following Metamagic options of your choice. You gain another one at 10th and 17th level.
You can use only one Metamagic option on a spell when you cast it, unless otherwise noted.
- Careful Spell. When you cast a spell that forces other creatures to make a saving throw, you can protect some of those creatures from the spell’s full force. To do so, you spend 1 sorcery point and choose a number of those creatures up to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one creature). A chosen creature automatically succeeds on its saving throw against the spell.
- Distant Spell. When you cast a spell that has a range of 5 feet or greater, you can spend 1 sorcery point to double the range of the spell.
- When you cast a spell that has a range of touch, you can spend 1 sorcery point to make the range of the spell 30 feet.
- Empowered Spell. When you roll damage for a spell, you can spend 1 sorcery point to reroll a number of the damage dice up to your Charisma modifier (minimum of one). You must use the new rolls.
- You can use Empowered Spell even if you have already used a different Metamagic option during the casting of the spell.
- Extended Spell. When you cast a spell that has a duration of 1 minute or longer, you can spend 1 sorcery point to double its duration, to a maximum duration of 24 hours.
- Heightened Spell. When you cast a spell that forces a creature to make a saving throw to resist its effects, you can spend 3 sorcery points to give one target of the spell disadvantage on its first saving throw made against the spell.
- Quickened Spell. When you cast a spell that has a casting time of 1 action, you can spend 2 sorcery points to change the casting time to 1 bonus action for this casting.
- Seeking Spell. If you make an attack roll for a spell and miss, you can spend 2 sorcerer points to reroll the d20, and you must use the new roll.
- You can use Seeking Spell even if you have already used a different Metamagic option during the casting of the spell.
- Seeking Spell (UA). When you cast a spell that requires you to make a spell attack roll or that forces a target to make a Dexterity saving throw, you can spend 1 sorcery point to ignore the effects of half- and three-quarters cover against targets of the spell.
- Subtle Spell. When you cast a spell, you can spend 1 sorcery point to cast it without any somatic or verbal components.
- Transmuted Spell. When you cast a spell that deals a type of damage from the following list, you can spend 1 sorcery point to change that damage type to one of the other listed types: acid, cold, fire, lightning, poison, thunder.
- Twinned Spell. When you cast a spell that targets only one creature and doesn’t have a range of self, you can spend a number of sorcery points equal to the spell’s level to target a second creature in range with the same spell (1 sorcery point if the spell is a cantrip). To be eligible, a spell must be incapable of targeting more than one creature at the spell’s current level. For example, magic missile and scorching ray aren’t eligible, but ray of frost and chromatic orb are.
When you reach 4th level, and again at 8th, 12th, 16th, and 19th level, you can increase one ability score of your choice by 2, or you can increase two ability scores of your choice by 1. As normal, you can’t increase an ability score above 20 using this feature.
When you reach a level in this class that grants the Ability Score Improvement feature, you can do one of the following, representing the magic within you flowing in new ways:
- Replace one of the options you chose for the Metamagic feature with a different Metamagic option available to you.
- Replace one cantrip you learned from this class’ spellcasting feature with another cantrip from the sorcerer spell list.
When you reach 5th level, you can tap into your inner wellspring of magic to try and conjure success from failure. When you make an ability check that fails, you can spend 1 sorcery point to reroll the d20, and you must use the new roll, potentially turning the failure into a success.
At 20th level, you regain 4 expended sorcery points whenever you finish a short rest.
Sorcerous Origin
Choose a sorcerous origin, which describes the source of your innate magical power. Your choice grants you features when you choose it at 1st level and again at 6th, 14th, and 18th level.

Iron Core Spells
You learn additional spells when you reach certain levels in this class, as shown on the Iron Core Spells table. Each of these spells counts as a sorcerer spell for you, but it doesn’t count against the number of sorcerer spells you know. When you gain a sorcerer level, you can replace one spell you gained from this feature with another spell of the same level. The new spell must be an abjuration or transmutation spell from the sorcerer, warlock, or wizard spell list.
In addition, use the table below to determine which metal forms your core. While it has no mechanical effect on your magic, most of your magical effects and creations appear as if they were made from the selected material.
Metal Selection Table
Armor Affinity
At 1st level, you gain proficiency in heavy armor, and wearing it does not reduce your speed. Damage reduction granted by armor you wear applies to all bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage, not just nonmagical, even if the armor you wear isn’t magical.
Iron Guard
Also at 1st level, you can use your action to form a ward of magical metal around yourself or one creature you can see within 30 feet of you, which remains for as long as your are conscious or until you remove the guard. Any bludgeoning, piercing, or slashing damage dealt to a guarded creature is reduced by an amount equal to your proficiency bonus. You can use your bonus action to move the guard to another creature within 30 feet of you, and can remove it freely, requiring no action. You can guard one creature with this feature, or yourself. At 11th level in this class you have two guards, and three at 14th level.
Shape the Steel
Starting at 6th level, even the firmest metal bends for you. Over the course of 1 minute, you can slowly alter the form of a Huge or smaller nonmagical metal object you touch that is not being worn or carried by another creature. If you stop touching the object before the minute is up, it reverts to its original form. You cannot create or destroy material, only reshape it, and cannot change the object’s temperature. You can’t use this feature to create items that ordinarily require a high degree of craftsmanship, such as jewelry, weapons, or armor, unless you have proficiency with the tools used to craft such objects. Finally, this feature cannot be used to deal damage or harm another creature.
Core Infusion
At 14th level you gain the ability to absorb metal to bolster your allies. During a short or long rest, you can absorb 1 cubic foot of metal, which destroys the material and infuses up to 6 willing creatures within 60 feet of you. Until it completes a long rest, an infused creature’s current and maximum hit points increase by 15, and it gains a +1 bonus to its armor class. You can conduct this ritual once, and must finish a long rest before you do so again.
Arcane Conduction
Beginning at 18th level, choose one of the following damage types when you apply your Iron Guard to a creature: cold, fire, force, lightning, necrotic, radiant, or thunder. The guarded creature has resistance to that damage type, and when it takes damage of the chosen type, you or the guarded creature can use a reaction to channel the energy through the metal. The guarded creature gains temporary hit points equal to the damage taken, which last for 1 hour or until you use this feature again. If the guarded creature has those temporary hit points and hits with an attack, it can choose to remove all remaining temporary hit points and discharge the energy, adding damage to the attack equal to your sorcerer level, of the type that triggered this feature.
