Esoteric Knight prestige class with Psychic Bloodline Sorcerer?


Rules Questions


Would the Psychic Bloodline's arcana meet the prerequisite for Esoteric Knight?

Esoteric Knight states: "ability to cast 1st-level psychic spells."
Psychic Bloodline Arcana states: "Your sorcerer spells and spell-like abilities count as psychic instead of arcane."

The bloodline offers the sorcerer spell list, but they are cast using psychic magic rules... What about a psychicly cast sorcerer spell that just so happens to also be on the Psychic spell list.

I guess what I'm asking is if the requirement specifically needs the 1st-level spells from the "psychic spell list?". My inclination is no, since that would limit the prestige class to only to the kineticist or psychic classes.

RAW? RAI? Would you as a GM say that this is fine?


You are correct, the prerequisite refers to the ability to cast Psychic Magic, not spells from the Psychic Class Spell List (thanks paizo for making it confusing). As such, a Psychic Bloodline Sorcerer would meet that prerequisite.
