| The Paths of Sorcery allow a character to tap into long-forgotten magical heritage in their past for a significant increase in their arcane capabilities. Despite this, not all who follow the Paths of Sorcery are necessarily casters in their own right - any character may develop the abilities listed in a particular bloodline. However, such abilities can only reach their true potential through a spellcaster. | <WRAP center 50%> |

| All Bloodline Paths possess a **Bloodline Skill**. This is a bonus Key Skill which you gain upon unlocking the Bloodline. Placing ranks into this skill is required to progress the Bloodline. Unless otherwise stated, all Bloodline abilities must be purchased in order. You may unlock a Bloodline using your Prowess or your Caster Level, though many bloodline abilities require specifically MP to activate. If a bloodline power references your Caster Level without you possessing one, treat you Caster Level as 1 for that effect. | //The Path of Sorcery allows a character to tap into long-forgotten magical heritage in their past for a significant increase in their arcane capabilities.
