Base Class: Sorcerer
The destructive capabilities of a Mythic creature is not limited to the killing of adventurers or terrorizing a population, sometimes the destruction can come 9 months later when your child is born with a physical mutation akin to that of said Mythic creature. The blood of a Mythic creature is not inherently capable of corrupting a humanoid, but mix it with a humanoid and arcane energy and you have a recipe for a monstrosity. Mythic Curse Sorcerers are such creatures and live their lives knowing that their strength is owed to the sworn enemy of their people, whether they submit to it or fight against it is their choice.
Monstrous Origin
Your powers come from the Mythic Monstrosities of Theros, and their curse has affected your physical body. Choose which mythic creature your powers come from, this choice will affect future features at 6th and 14th level.
