📋 About This Mod

HELLO EVERYONE, I AM FULLY BACK!

To celebrate my return to the BG3 modding scene, I have created an expansion of the Draconic Bloodline Sorcerer. Have you ever wanted to play as a sorcerer who had gotten their powers from a dragon that you liked in 4th edition or earlier but there wasn't any options for you, or simple wanted to inherit traits from a dragon you liked that is in 5th edition but wizards say no? Well look no further! With the Draconic Bloodline Expanded you now have more options for your draconic bloodline than ever before!

This mod features many new dragons to get your bloodline from including Metallic, Chromatic, Gem, Ferrous and more. The lists below will show you what can be chosen from!

Here's a link to the document I wrote as well!
