This gives us a 15 Dex before we add any ability bonuses from Human.
Moving quickly on to our other main stat, we go ahead and dump 9 more points into Dexterity. We can also be a bit tricksy, given our high Deception skill. It also helps us make friends and build alliances through our battle sorceress’s winning personality. Charisma’s a cornerstone to all this magical might. These will primarily be blast spells, powerful single target attacks, and powerful defensive buffs. That’s pretty key as we’ll be throwing down a lot spells. This gives us a 15 in our primary spellcasting stat right from jump and before applying any racial modifiers. You guessed it, we’ll be going ahead and dumping 9 points, using the point buy system, into Charisma. OK! So let’s jump right in to our character build starting with ability scores! We’ll be taking Sorcerer all the way to level 20 so there’s little surprise regarding our starting stat. Level 1 - Charisma, Dexterity, Constitution, Weapon Master, Variant Human, Draconic Sorcerer Though her primary strength is blast magic and area of effect, she’ll combine feats with sorcerer features and spells to enhance her abilities as a melee combatant. I simply provide Glede here as an example and to showcase how I’m setting up this character build in RP.Īs an overview, our battle sorceress gish will have relatively high armor class values, she’ll possess cleric-range hit points, and she’ll wield some martial weapons to provide her with various melee opportunities in addition to possessing a powerful suite of blast spells. Of course, you will probably wish to devise your own story for your battle sorcerer/sorceress. Glede’s Token from Rime of the Frostmaiden
Her draconic eyes hint of the powerful flames she is able to conjure. Twin draconic horns sprout from her head. Though human, Glede is covered in a thin patina of barely visible white-golden scales. Retaining the draconic blood of her mother and exhibiting its power as sorcery, Glede scraped out a living for herself and her father on the rough streets of Waterdeep. Glede, still a child, turned to the streets of Waterdeep as a member of the Good Rats gang. Seeking drink as his only solace, he soon became an invalid and unfit guardian for Glede. Aethelhorne’s loss drove Rydan into depression. They gained no profit from this murder as Aethelhorne had already donated her treasures to benefit the poor of Waterdeep. Aethelhorne met tragedy at the hands of Zhentarim dragon slayers and treasure hunters. She lived her life with Rydan in human form and produced Glede as their only child. Her mother Aethelhorne, a golden dragon, married a Paladin of Bahamut named Rydan Redcrest. Storywise, Glede’s a punker street girl from the subdivision of Gloaming in Waterdeep.

But unlike the stab and smite dexadin, this new draconic sorceress build is pretty heavy on the blast.Īs a model for the draconic battle sorceress, I’m drawing heavily on Glede of Gloaming in the Rime of the Frostmaiden campaign series DM’d by Ted Burgess (YouTube list of live play episodes here). For our newest bit of 5e Dungeons and Dragons character construction fun, we’re harkening back to a pure single-classed gish build. The time when we take a break from all our creative projects for a bit of D&D character optimization fun!ĭuring our last three episodes, the Hexblade-Fighter, the classic Fighter-Mage, and the Cleric-Sorcerer, we explored three builds that each took a 1-3 level dip in a second class. Wow! It’s already time for another Gish Optimized episode.
