Kehlysch was an ordinary child, living a quiet, ordinary life until the day he came of age. A brown-haired, brown-eyed child with sun-tanned skin awoke one day to the shock of finding his skin had paled considerably, his hair had gone nearly white, and his left eye had turned a dazzling shade of blue. Needless to say, his parents and the people of his small farming community found this very disturbing. They began asking questions, and speculating as to what sort of evil young Kehlysch had been dabbling in. Matters worsened when he also started manifesting powers. He was suddenly able to cast spells without ever having studied magic. He also began occasionally speaking in strange hissing and clicking sounds that could not be understood by anyone in the village. This was the final straw. Kehlysch wasn't driven out of town, per se, but it was made all too clear that he was no longer welcome. The village elders incentivized his departure with a purse heavy with coins; essentially, "take the money, and leave. Do not come back."

And so, at the age of sixteen, Kehlysch was on his own. He made his way to the nearest major town, looking for libraries, scholars, and mages who might be able to provide answers to his myriad of questions. He found that his magical talents did provide him with a means of earning income, and as the months and years passed, those powers continued to grow. He could do more and more, and he wasn't exactly sure how long this expansion of his abilities would continue.

His travels and quest for answers has landed him in the rough and tumble coastal city of Highport, in the Pomarj. Highport was not noted for his libraries, scholars and mages, more like its pirates, smugglers, and slavers. Unfortunately for him, it was the latter who found young Kehlysch. Set upon by a skilled and stealthy gang of assailants, Kehlysch found himself knocked out, stripped down to his small clothes, and chained up with dozens of other unfortunates. Now all he can do is wait for an opportune moment to make his escape.

Bloodline Arcana: Your magic of creation and changing is hard to unravel. The DC to dispel transmutation or conjuration (creation) spells that you cast is increased by +4.

Bloodline Powers: Your ancestral immersion in primordial chaos begets your curiously warped magical talents.

Protoplasm (Sp): At 1st level, you can create a ball of entropic protoplasm and hurl it at targets within 30 feet. This protoplasm acts as a tanglefoot bag that also inflicts 1 point of acid damage per round to a creature entangled by it. The protoplasm dissolves within 1d3 rounds. You may use this ability a number of times per day equal to 3 + your Charisma modifier.

Protean Resistances (Ex): At 3rd level, you gain resist acid 5 and a +2 bonus on saving throws against polymorph, petrification, and transmutation spells or effects. At 9th level, you gain resist acid 10 and your save bonus increases to +4.

Reality Wrinkle (Sp): At 9th level, you can surround yourself with a mobile, 10-foot-radius emanation of mutable reality. This rippling distortion is similar to solid fog but does not provide concealment or block line of sight. Your movement is not slowed by this aura. Attacks from outside the aura suffer a 20% miss chance against targets inside the aura. You may use this ability a number of rounds per day equal to your sorcerer level, though this duration need not be continuous.

Spatial Tear (Sp): At 15th level, once per day, you can unravel the fibers of reality and ride along them as they snap back into place. This power functions as dimension door, while also creating a mass of black tentacles centered on your former location. Both of these effects use your sorcerer level as the caster level. At 20th level, you can use this ability twice per day.

Avatar of Chaos (Ex): At 20th level, you are infused with the essence of raw chaos. You gain immunity to acid, petrification, and polymorph effects (except when cast on self), as well as a +2 bonus to save DCs and on checks to overcome spell penetration against creatures with the lawful subtype.
