Base Class: Sorcerer
Sometimes the magic that fuels a sorcerer comes from a source that isn't easy to explain. Having abilities that can influence the sources of luck, your innate magic might come from divine forces. Perhaps your birth might align with an ancient prophecy, marking you favored by the gods. Or maybe you were simply born lucky.
An Astral Influence Sorcerer might be seen as a threat by most Order Domain religions. Stealing or granting favor to people can be seen as bending or abusing a system set in place by the gods themselves. However, in some cultures, the ability to bend luck is seen as a sign of a divine blessing, and the Astral Influenced may even command religious power. The only place where most people agree, is that an Astral Influenced should not be allowed near a gambling hall.
