Sorcerers are the rarer half of the duo of classes known collectively as Arcanists, meaning those who deal exclusively in the traditional methods of the arcane arts. On Emblem of Ea, the power of a Sorcerer is blood born, carried down through generations via family lines and typically the origin is draconic in nature. Occasionally, mingling with the magical creatures of other races occurs amd results in some Sorcerers who can trace their magic back to fae or even giant's blood. For others, the blood lineage power represents influence from other powers and sources with whom pacts both recent and ancient have been made to influence that individual or their family line.
The way of the Sorcerer is largely mysterious and unknown and attempts by more scholarly agents and organizations to study and teach them have been met with mixed results. For the most part, their magic is purely instinctive and they can emerge from nearly any race. Sorcerers definitely have a more mystical and mythical bend here on the Emblem of Ea.

Bloodlines
Note that while PF adds options to the sorcerer, some of the bloodlines should be approached with more care than others. An Infernal bloodline often means an ancestor's contract with a devil--it does not mean resembling a devil or razing cities. An Undead bloodline may be the lingering taint of the death from a close family member.
Also, a bloodline's ties are distinct but distant. While a character advances, they'll gain aspects of their bloodline--but it does not turn them into a half-dragon, a half-celestial, or so on and so forth. Instead, it's meant to convey a mystical flavor. Keep the theme and needs of play in mind when designing a character and orienting yourself for RP.
