I have a sorcerer that I am testing out and my GM and I have a difference on leveling up. It says that a dragon desciple adds their level to the previous sorcerer levels for determining bloodline powers. If we read it corectly you only need level 2 in sorcerer [as long as you have know: arcana as a class skill] to qualify for the prestige class. At 3rd level you take DD and gain not only what is on the chart for that prestigue class [which includes a +1 natural armor bonus] but you also get your third level bloodline powers [whic also includes a +1 natural armor class].
Is it correct that all bloodline powers stack with the power and abilities that are granted by the dragon desciple? So at level 2 sorcerer/ level 1 Dragon desciple you actually get +2 armor class and everything else?
Dragons are know for spell casting as well as physical power are they not? I see the loss of spell level appropriate as is. If I have read the class right it does make the character a good front line man, which is what it does seem was intended. Especially being a sorcerer it should be magic spells and physical power emerging from his bloodline, not just physcial power.
