Fey Bloodline Arcana and Spell-Like Abilities

[Krackne]

If an NPC has access to spell-like abilities along with the fey bloodline of sorcerer (+2 to the DC if it's part of the compulsion subschool), would the compulsion spell-like abilities get the increased DC or not due to being a spell-like ability?

Bloodline Arcana: Whenever you cast a spell of the compulsion subschool, increase the spell's DC by +2.

Spells and Spell-like Abilities are different terms. Bloodline arcana specifies that character have bonus to spells.

Usually, a spell-like ability works just like the spell of that name. A spell-like ability has no verbal, somatic, or material component, nor does it require a focus. The user activates it mentally. Armor never affects a spell-like ability's use, even if the ability resembles an arcane spell with a somatic component.

A spell-like ability has a casting time of 1 standard action unless noted otherwise in the ability or spell description. In all other ways, a spell-like ability functions just like a spell.

If the spell like ability is based on a spell in the compulsion sub school, it works.

Spell Focus applies to SLAs. Bloodline Arcanae are explicitly not limited to Sorcerer spells. It works.
