Base Class: Sorcerer
Those who contain the spark of Blue Magic may live their entire lives without realizing it. Until they are struck by the force of a spell and feel it imprinting upon them, they live mundane, ordinary lives. From that moment on, the Blue Mage absorbs the energy of any spell cast upon them, learning the spell and fueling their power. The absorbed magic manifests itself in glowing blue veins on the Sorcerer’s skin, the more magic they have absorbed they more these veins are visible.
Blue Magic
Beginning at 1st level, the only way you can learn new spells is to experience them. Unlike other sorcerers, you do not learn new spells as you grow in level (though your 1st level spells and cantrips are learned from the sorcerer spell list, as a normal sorcerer).
When any cantrip or spell is cast on you, and you experience any effect of the spell, you can use your reaction to learn that spell if you have a empty cantrip or spell slot available. You do not learn a spell if you are required to make a saving throw and succeed, causing the spell to have no effect on you.
When you gain a level in this class, you can choose to forget one of the sorcerer spells you know leaving you with the ability to learn a new spell in its place.
Indigo Infusion
At 1st level you have the ability to change any equipment in your possession to the match your color affinity. This takes 1 minute of undisturbed concentration to complete. This change is not permanent; when the item in question leaves your person or when you choose to dismiss the infusion, it returns to its normal color in 1d4 rounds. This has no other effect than altering the item's appearance.
The title "Blue Mage" only refers to the most common spellcaster of this type; casters with other color affinities exist and, though uncommon, are not rare. You select your color affinity at 1st level, which may not be changed thereafter.
Azure Awareness
Beginning at 6th level, you are more perceptive to the ambient magic energy around you. As an action, you may cast detect magic without using mana. In addition, you can spend 2 sorcery points to focus this detect magic on a creature as a bonus action to detect if it has any magical properties. When you do this, you learn all of the creature's Spell-Like abilities, Immunities, Resistances, and Vulnerabilities.
Turquoise Effciency
By 14th level, you have learned to be frugal with the magical energy you absorb from spells. When a spell that you know that requires a saving throw is cast on you, you have advantage on that save. In addition, if you save against that spell, you gain a number of sorcery points equal to the level of the spell.
Cerulean Reflection
Beginning at 18 level, you may use your body as a conduit to transmit magic back at other casters. When you are subjected to a spell that allows you to make a saving throw to take only half damage, you instead take no damage if you succeed on the saving throw, and only half damage if you fail. Additionally, you can spend a number of sorcery points equal to the level of the spell as a reaction to reflect the spell back at the caster as though it originated from you, turning the caster into the target.
