A bit ago I did a whole-ass set of warlocks based on D&D 5e subclasses - mostly for fun and also because my RP group was planning a warlock game. I didn't HAVE to draw one of each but doing so DID help me decide which one I wanted to play (this is, to note, why the characters are all pretty fem-coded - because that's my favorite to RP)
Anyway, after I drew them all, folks asked if I'd do other classes too. And I was like, maybe? But, sorcerer did sound fun to do this with so over the last few months I've been working on them kinda on the side while I put most my energy in, like, the commissions I need to finish lol. But here, a bunch of theoretical sorcerers I'd personally play in a game:
Let's start us off with Iris, a half-elf who'd be living a pretty normal life in a normal job (I was thinking she was probably a waitress or somethin) until she finds something weird - a piece of a meteor or something, you know how it goes. Suddenly she has powers, and that's where her adventure would begin
More sorcerers under the cut!
Tally I struggled with because, as it turns out, little mechanical fairy wings are complicated to draw. BUT also fun - I liked the idea of a fairy who's lost her wings and while she's trapped in the material plane she befriends a clockmaker who builds her little wings for her and eventually her magic ends up kind of syncing up with the mechanical way he teaches her about the world
Elysia was actually the last one I drew, since I have a DIFFERENT Divine Soul sorcerer I've already designed and want to play as a priority, but then I happened to see something about Greek gods while watching TV one day and thought, oh hey, that'd be a fun way to play with a divinity-themed sorcerer - maybe a musician that caught the affections of a god who blessed her with magic
Cherish is a cheerful tiefling working at an inn with her former-adventurer mother. We can guess what sort of things her mother got up to in her adventure since she ended up raising a child with some mysteriously draconic features
NGL Aine was just a way for me to play with some of the inspirations I used to cling to as a kid. Sailor Moon and other various bits of anime and JRPGs and such that I loved in my youth and used a LOT to inspire art. I wanted to remember that - and a catgirl wearing too many belts sounded perfect for that
Leila is probably my weirdest - she's SPECIFIC, like if there's a campaign set in the Shadowfell or something, I imagined a maid working in a mansion that gets magicked away to this realm and her gaining that shadow power when it happens
One of my first 5e characters was a storm sorcerer - more focused on rain and lightning and thunder. I used the same hair color and close to the same skin color to make this new storm sorcerer as a bit of a nod to that character, and wanted this one more focused on winter storms (including making her a winter eladrin elf)
and last but certainly not least, Gemma the halfling cursed with wild magic. I think she started off her adventuring life with a thieves' group before they found the wrong magic artifact. You know how it goes

Excuse me - jumped up apprentice? I’m a sorcerer, Rolan, magic incarnate and I could probably turn you into a sheep, or a cat, or just blow you up - not really sure, anything could happen if I’m honest.
Plus my horns are way cooler than yours.

We have gotten some strong hints that Ireena is going to be a wild magic sorceress!
I gave her a more adventurey outfit to match!

I draw him soft and sweet all the time and so it’s easy to forget just how dangerous and terrifying he and his wild magic can be, when he’s pushed to that point.
(also hi holy shit I totally missed it but this blog passed 1000?? Thanks for all the support 🫶🏼🫶🏼 and feel free to send any asks!!)

Wild Magic Sorc is fun right up until that one time, you're barely pulling through, and it procs and nearly TPKs. But, the opposite can be true too I guess.
Vethryn my high elf tiefling Sorcerer that fell into Feywilds many many moons ago. Under the maybe not so guiding hand of an Archfey of Dreams and Wish, he was able to be freed but not without severely messing with his head, and how he spell casts.

WILD MAGIC SORCERER: RELOADED
I've always had issues with wild magic. Surges are dependent on your GM remembering they exist, and some effects can wipe your party instantly, or bring in summons the GM just needs to have on hand. Outside the funny table, there's not much flavor to the class.
My rewrite puts more of a focus on gambling, more wild effects with less dangerous results, and more wild features.

I am so early into this wild magic sorcerer playthrough but man these dialogue options could not have better encapsulated Jinx's personality. I'm so pleased.
I think I'm going to enjoy this.

look it he’s doing a thing.
I imagine Kaeric’s magic is pink lightning. It’s a fast viscious strike before he can even realize what he’s hit. very rare for him to be able to control it or even turn it into something.
He’s really a chill guy by nature. just wants to live, laugh, love. however after so many murder attempts, his body reacts to perceived threats. “perceived” being the big word here. oooooo i have a lot on orin and kaeric’s relationship and it actually breaks my heart.
i was thinking about him a lot yesterday trying to get lore written down. i actually really like writing but i also really hate writing anything down in sentences. probably american public schooling.
