<p>Bloodline Arcana: You may speak and cast spells normally
<br />
while under the affects of spells of the polymorph subschool.
<br />
This ability functions the same as Natural Spell.
<br />
Bloodline Powers: As you grow in power your control
<br />
over your form grows as well.</p>
<p>Claws (Ex): At 1st level, you can grow claws as a free
<br />
action. These claws are treated as natural weapons,
<br />
allowing you to make two claw attacks as a full attack
<br />
action using your full base attack bonus. These attacks
<br />
deal 1d4 points of damage each (1d3 if you are Small)
<br />
plus your Strength modifier. At 5th level, these claws
<br />
are considered magic weapons for the purpose of
<br />
overcoming DR. At 7th level, the damage increases by
<br />
one step to 1d6 points of damage (1d4 if you are Small).
<br />
At 11th level, these claws become keen weapons, gaining
<br />
19-20 x2 crit. You can use your claws for a number of
<br />
rounds per day equal to 3+ your Charisma modifier.</p>
<p>Morphic Body (Ex): At 3rd level, you gain +1 Natural Armor
<br />
and lowlight vision. At 9th level, your Natural Armor
<br />
bonus increases to +2 and you gain Darkvision 60 ft.
<br />
At 15th level the natural Ar bonus increases to +4</p>
<p>Morphic Speed (Su): : At 9th level, you can sprout
<br />
Wings, fins or digging/climbing claws. This allows
<br />
You to gain a fly, swim, burrow or climb speed equal
<br />
To your base movement for a number of minutes per day
<br />
equal to your sorcerer level,. The fly speed has average
<br />
maneuverability and the burrow cannot burrow through
<br />
solid rock. This duration does not need to be
<br />
consecutive, but it must be used in 1 minute increments.</p>
<p>Morphic Power (Su): At 15th level, whenever you
<br />
are under the effects of a Polymoph spell that adds
<br />
a Str or Con bonus the bonuses are each increased by 4.</p>
<p>Morphic Ascendance (Su): At 20th level
<br />
You gain immunity to poison and disease. DR 5/- and
<br />
All spells of the polymorph sub school are automatically
<br />
Extended when cast by you. If polymorped against your will
<br />
You may resume your true form as a free action on your
<br />
Next turn.</p>Morphic

<p>Your parents were heavily optimized characters, a collection of random powers brought together only by the will to be better than everyone else. You might sometimes have urges to build a consistent, believable character for role-playing, but in the end, you always take the power option. </p>
<p><b>Class skill</b>: Knowledge(Character Optimization) - not that it matters since you won't have any skill points for anything except Concentration.</p>
<p><b>Bonus Spells</b>: At third level, you get Celerity from the 3.5 PHB II. Every 2 levels afterwards, you can choose any spell as bloodline spell, as long as the spell is ridiculously overpowered. The most likely source is the the 3.5 Spell Compendium, but non-WoTC Splatbook sources are also a possibility.</p>
<p><b>Bonus Feets</b>: Twin Spell, Chain Spell, Sculpt Spell, Skill Focus(Knowledge(Character Optimization)), Extend Spell, Persistent Spell</p>
<p><b>Bloodline Arcana</b>: Whenever you cast a spell, the DC of the spell is +2 higher than the DC of the second most heavily-optimized caster in the party. If you are the only or most heavily optimized caster already, you get a +5 bonus to your normal DC.</p>
<p><b>Bloodline Powers</b>: Munchkin Sorcerers show increasing signs of their power-gaming heritage as they increase in level, although they are still sorcerers up until the end.</p>
<p>Mind-boggling optimization (Ex): Starting at level one, whenever you feel underpowered, the whole party and the DM have to wait for you to look up one more optimization in random splatbooks or CO forums.</p>
<p>Annoying optimization (Ex): At third level, you are already making any melee characters feel useless. </p>
<p>First victims (Ex): At ninth level, your optimized character takes up so much time in play that the players of the fighter and the ranger leave the group and don't want to talk to you anymore. </p>
<p>Incredibly naive DM (Ex): At 15th level, you can convince your DM to allow the use of chain-binding to get infinite gold. </p>
<p>Late realization (Ex): At 20th level, you realize that the game has not been fun for a long time. But your character is almost half as powerful as a wizard of the same level...</p>Munchkin/CO Bloodline:

<div class="messageboard-quotee">Reborn Soul Web Enhancement wrote:</div><blockquote>Soul Shadow (Su): Beginning at 3rd level, whenever anyone attempts to scry you (with a spell or magical device) you appear to them as nothing more than a shadow, with only occasional distinct features becoming clear. Those features that do become clearly visible from time to time are closer in appearance to your past life’s body than your current body. Beginning at 9th level, you become immune to attempts to scry you (with a spell or magical device), and you simply cannot be located in such a manner.</blockquote><p>and
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Reborn Soul Web Enhancement wrote:</div><blockquote>When Past and Present Collide (Ex): At 20th level, your mind exists simultaneously in the present as well as in your past life. As such, you gain permanent immunity to all divination spells and to any mind-affecting spells and effects. In addition, creatures who are the subject of your divination or mind-affecting spells suffer a -5 penalty to their saving throws and you receive a +5 bonus to your caster level check to overcome spell resistance, should it apply.</blockquote><p>The shadow of the sorcerer's soul extends through time, from the previous body to the present body. Basically, the soul exists in two different time periods and that confuses attempts to scry the sorcerer. The more powerful the sorcerer becomes, the stronger the soul and the stronger its ties to the past, and thus eventually attempts to scry (or use any type of divination against) the sorcerer are ineffectual. It's as if the sorcerer doesn't exist in the current time period.

+1 for shadow, I'll get right on it. </blockquote><p>The Reborn Soul? Basically, the soul of a mage is reborn generations later, and tapping into that soul is what allows the sorceror to use magic. But the longer they tap that soul, the more past and present seem to flow together for them. It isn't simply a reincarnation - the present sorceror has their own identity and life. But the spark of magic re-awakens that long-dead soul inside them, granting them the abilities and insight from the past.
