Blood of Dragons and Bloodline Feats


Rules Questions


Let's say I have a Sorcerer 5, Dragon Disciple X. I know I advance my Bloodline Powers as a full Sorcerer thanks to Blood of Dragons. I know I get Bloodline Spells as well thanks to Blood of Dragons. How many Bloodline Feats do I get and on what schedule if I complete 10 levels of Dragon Disciple without any other multiclassing?

Bloodline: Each sorcerer has a source of magic somewhere in her heritage that grants her spells, bonus feats, an additional class skill, and other special abilities. This source can represent a blood relation or an extreme event involving a creature somewhere in the family's past. For example, a sorcerer might have a dragon as a distant relative or her grandfather might have signed a terrible contract with a devil. Regardless of the source, this influence manifests in a number of ways as the sorcerer gains levels. A sorcerer must pick one bloodline upon taking her first level of sorcerer. Once made, this choice cannot be changed.

At 3rd level, and every two levels thereafter, a sorcerer learns an additional spell, derived from her bloodline. These spells are in addition to the number of spells given on Table: Sorcerer Spells Known. These spells cannot be exchanged for different spells at higher levels.

At 7th level, and every six levels thereafter, a sorcerer receives one bonus feat, chosen from a list specific to each bloodline. The sorcerer must meet the prerequisites for these bonus feats.

Blood of Dragons: A dragon disciple adds his level to his sorcerer levels when determining the powers gained from his bloodline. If the dragon disciple does not have levels of sorcerer, he instead gains bloodline powers of the draconic bloodline, using his dragon disciple level as his sorcerer level to determine the bonuses gained. He must choose a dragon type upon gaining his first level in this class and that type must be the same as his sorcerer type. This ability does not grant bonus spells to a sorcerer unless he possesses spell slots of an appropriate level. Such bonus spells are automatically granted if the sorcerer gains spell slots of the spell's level.

"Blood of Dragons: A dragon disciple adds his level to his sorcerer levels when determining the powers gained from his bloodline."

none from dragon disciple other than the ones given via the "bloodline feat" class feature.

"Upon reaching 2nd level, and every three levels thereafter, a dragon disciple receives one bonus feat, chosen from the draconic bloodline's bonus feat list."


You answered the question in your own post. You get bloodline feats at the 2nd, 5th, and 8th level of Dragon Disciple.


Is "powers gained from his bloodline" the same as "bloodline powers"? If so, then why point out that a Sorcerer does not gain bloodline spells if he doesn't have the appropriate level slots for them? Surely bloodline spells are not included in bloodline powers.

If bloodline spells are considered "powers gained from his bloodline", why aren't bloodline feats?
