Sorcerer (Draconic Bloodline)
Your innate magic comes from Draconic Magic that was mingled with your blood or that of your ancestors. Most often, sorcerers with this Origin trace their descent back to a mighty Sorcerer of ancient times who made a bargain with a Dragon or who might even have claimed a Dragon parent. Some of these bloodlines are well established in the world, but most are obscure. Any given Sorcerer could be the first of a new bloodline, as a result of a pact or some other exceptional circumstance

spellcasting:
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 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 You learn an additional Sorcerer spell of your choice at each level except 12th, 14th, 16th, 18th, 19th, and 20th.

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 Spell casting Ability: Charisma is your Spell casting 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 Spell casting 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 modifier Spell casting Focus: You can use an arcane focus as a Spell casting Focus for your Sorcerer Spells
