I play sorcerer's like its my job and even when i'm not I find myself taking the Eldritch heritage feats. I am really interested in the ARG's (Advanced Race Guide) bloodline for humans, imperious.
It's definitely not the best bloodline but I love the theme of it. I was just curious to see what others though of the bloodline as I am strongly considering it for an upcoming homebrew campaign.
Class Skill: Perform (oratory) This is definitely meh, but for a little background on the character. He is a bit of a mix between a bard and a sorcerer leaning more towards the latter. I have read the bard archetypes that seem to fit several times and the only one that is still barely in the running is arcane duelist, magician is written off.
Nothing extraordinary, but I've certainly seen worse.
The feats aren't anything to get too excited about but for someone who is probably going to end up being the face their are certainly worse options.
Bloodline Arcana: essentially says that I gain a bonus to intimidate checks against those adversely affected by the spell until the end of my next turn equal to the level of the spell.
Is this something I need to worry about? I am thinking not but I hate wasting my arcana so I think it might be worth looking into. Any good ways for sorcerers to get free intimidate checks? Note: the 9th level power does help with this but it is pretty limited and requires foresight.
I am mostly satisfied with the powers especially the first one netting some extra class skills along with a bonus when gathering info about humans.
I love the Imperious Bloodline myself. The whole theme to me says:
Lv1 Sorcerer "One day... One day I'm going to be bad @$$!"
lv20 reminiscing "You remember how I was always talking about how awesome I was going to be?... I was wrong. I'm BETTER!"
I'm not ecstatic about the bonus spells. But I really like Heroic Echo, Take Your Best Shot, Heroic Legends isn't terrible, but it could have come earlier. I can't even find Pure Strain anywhere. Don't know what that's all about.

Me either though I'm sure that's in the ARG errata thread somewhere by this point.
