Bloodline Arcana and Item Creation


Rules Questions


So, this is something I've been curious about and not been able to find a response to:

If a sorcerer is creating a magic item, can they apply their bloodline arcana to it?

For instance, someone with the orc bloodline creating a necklace of fireballs: Would it function as a standard necklace, or could they, because of their bloodline arcana, make it so the fireballs created would cause additional damage?

I can see arguments going either way, but I'm curious what others think.

Edit- I suppose a corrolary to this would be whether or not alternate racial traits (for instance, an orc's bonus to damage, or a pyromanic gnomes) can be applied as well.


In order to keep things simple i am going to say no he can't.

Seconded. The bloodline arcana refers to magic directly emanating from the caster. Items however, only have standard effects.
