Is there a Witch archetype that grants access to a sorcerer bloodline?

The most obvious way for a non-sorcerer to gain access to certain bloodline powers is via the Eldritch Heritage feats. But I was curious if there are any witch archetypes that offer bloodline powers? Ideally one that could be used to take a mutated bloodline (a la the Wildblooded sorcerer archetype), but that might be asking for too much.

On a related note, are there are any ways for a non-sorcerer character to gain access to mutated bloodline powers? The Eldritch heritage feats don't seem to allow for that.


1: None I'm aware of. There's a witch bloodline for Sorcerers, but not the other way around.

For 2: Exotic Heritage feat from Ultimate Wilderness.

Choose a skill. You gain a +2 bonus on skill checks with that skill. If you have 10 or more ranks in the chosen skill, this bonus increases to +4. This bonus does not stack with that granted by Skill Focus. This feat counts as Skill Focus with the chosen skill for the purpose of meeting the prerequisites of the Eldritch Heritage feat. When you select Eldritch Heritage, if you use this feat as a prerequisite, you can choose a mutated version of your chosen bloodline as though you were a sorcerer with the wildblooded archetype. All other restrictions and requirements of Eldritch Heritage still apply.


There is an arcanist archetype that makes it more witch-like. Unlettered arcanist gets a familiar and the witch spell list, but not hexes*. As an arcanist, you can pick up bloodline development - and improve it further with a sorcerer level, if so desired.

* If you are content with a few low-level hexes, a single level of witch and a few Extra Hex feats might be enough.
