📋 About This Mod
Level 1
Gift of the Cosmos: You can see normally in darkness, both magical and non-magical, to a distance of 6 meters.
Stellar Vigor: You can cast Mage Armor once per long rest without expending a spell slot. When cast in this way, you also gain temporary hit points equal to your Sorcerer Level.
Level 6
Raging Star: When you cast a spell that deals radiant damage, you add your Charisma Modifier and Sorcerer Class Level to the spell's damage. Note that this only works with guiding bolt, which is why we added two damage modifiers to it.
Additionally, when you take damage from a melee attack, the attacker is afflicted with two turns of radiating orb.
Additional Spells: You also learn five new spells that count as Sorcerer spells and are always prepared: Guiding Bolt, Aid, Moonbeam, Darkness, and Spirit Guardians.
Level 11
Star Within: You can use a bonus action to increase your Charisma Score by 2 and your movement speed by 3 meters for 10 rounds. You can use this feature twice and regain all expended uses after completing a long rest.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid download-to-endorsement ratio (2,254 downloads, 46 endorsements) suggests players are actually using it.
- Fills a niche for radiant-damage Sorcerer fans who want a sturdier caster.
- Based on a known 5e subclass, so it has a design pedigree.
⚠️ Cons
- Low endorsement count (46) means it's not widely tested or community-vetted.
- Last updated November 2024 — may not be compatible with the latest game patches.
For Baldur's Gate 3 players who want a Sorcerer with more survivability and a radiant damage focus, especially those familiar with the 5e Star-Born subclass. Skip if you prefer official subclasses or want a mod with extensive documentation.
