Sorcerer Archetype: Shaman

Unlike other Sorcerers, Shamans are not born with an inherent connection to the Arcane--instead, they have a natural connection to the Divine.   The Shaman's connection is an inborn affinity with nature.

Class Features Modifications

Class Skills: Remove Knowledge (arcana) from the Shaman's list of class skills.  Add Knowledge (nature).

Spells: A Shaman casts divine spells drawn primarily from the Druid spell list.   Otherwise, her spellcasting ability is unchanged.

Bloodline: Shamans are limited to the following list of bloodlines.  Bloodlines marked with an asterisk (*) are from the Advanced Player's Guide.

Aquatic*, Boreal*, Deep Earth*, Elemental, Fey, Psychic (see sidebar), Serpentine*, Starsoul*, Stormborn*, Verdant*.
