📋 About This Mod

Sorcerer: Divine Soul

Sometimes the spark of magic that fuels a sorcerer comes from a divine source that glimmers within the soul. Having such a blessed soul is a sign that your innate magic might come from a distant but powerful familial connection to a divine being. Perhaps your ancestor was an angel, transformed into a mortal and sent to fight in a god’s name. Or your birth might align with an ancient prophecy, marking you as a servant of the gods or a chosen vessel of divine magic.

A Divine Soul, with natural magnetism, is seen as a threat by some religious hierarchies. As an outsider who commands celestial power, these sorcerers can undermine the existing order by claiming a direct tie to the divine.

In some cultures, only those who can claim the power of a Divine Soul may command religious power. In these lands, ecclesiastical positions are dominated by a few bloodlines and preserved over generations.

This mod is my take on an adaptation of the Divine Soul to Baldur's Gate 3 mechanics and my limited modding experience. If you're familiar with D&D 5e, know this doesn't implement the subclass RAW. I took the freedom to change it up a bit to adapt it to the game's mechanics and to provide compatibility with other subclasses. Without further ado, here are the changes:

IMPLEMENTATION

(skip if you're not interested)

Divine Magic

Your link to the divine allows you to learn spells normally associated with the cleric class. When your Spellcasting feature lets you learn a sorcerer cantrip or a sorcerer spell of 1st level or higher, you can choose the new spell from the cleric spell list or the sorcerer spell list. You must otherwise obey all the restrictions for selecting the spell, and it becomes a sorcerer spell for you.

In addition, choose an affinity for the source of your divine power: good, evil, law, chaos, or neutrality. You learn an additional spell based on that affinity, as shown below. It is a sorcerer spell for you, but it doesn't count against your number of sorcerer spells known. If you later replace this spell, you must replace it with a spell from the cleric spell list.

Implementation. Due to limitations with how the sorcerer class was implemented in the game, I adapted the class akin to Tasha's Aberrant Mind and Clockwork Soul. At 1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, and 9th level, you can choose 2 spells of the appropriate level from the cleric spell list. In addition, you can choose 1 cleric spell at level 11. You also learn one cleric cantrip of your choice at 1st level. The default spells can be changed as an adaptation of Tasha's spell-swapping rules for the aforementioned subclasses.
