Tattooed Sorcerer Enhanced Varisian Tattoo


Rules Questions


Enhanced Varisian Tattoo (Su): At 9th level, the tattooed
sorcerer can pick any one spell she knows for which she has
a Varisian Tattoo feat. This spell must be one that lacks
focus components and costly material components. She can
now use that spell as a spell-like ability once per day. This
spell-like ability is not enhanced by her Varisian Tattoo,
but it functions at +2 caster levels above her sorcerer caster
level. Whenever she gains a bloodline power at a later date,
she may change this spell-like ability to another qualifying
spell. This ability replaces the 9th-level bloodline power.

This means that i can change the bloodline power that replaces, for example the one of level 15th?
Or that i can create a tattoo with the level 9th bloodline power and still effectively use it?


No, it means you choose Varisian Tattoo for a specific school, so Evocation for example. And then at 9th level, you would choose a spell within that school (Evocation) that you know, and that doesn't have a Material Cost, such as Fireball, and now you're able to cast Fireball as a Spell Like Ability 1/day at +2 Caster Level. Any time you cast Fireball as a spell normally, it would still operate with a +1 caster level from Varisian Tattoo though.

Each level you gain a Bloodline Power thereafter, such as at level 15 or at level 20, you could switch being able to cast that spell as a spell like ability with a +2 caster level to a different Evocation spell that you know, such as Firesnake or Stormbolts.


Got it
Thanks!
