The only feats I know of (empower, maximize) are for spell-like abillities not supernatural ones.

Anyone?

That's about all I have been able to come up with too from by Draconic Heritage Sorcerer's breath weapon (barring getting access to some of those nice breathweapon effecting spells in Races of the Dragon and Spell Compendium). Of course, the fact they bypass SR is pretty sweet in and of itself.

the problem is, you already invested TWO precious feats into it, any further investment should grant a HUGE advantage, otherwise i would skip it.

yea, but i will expect a lot of regions being not to "positive" with characters with "infernal" or "abyssal" heritage or the "celestial" too close to the old one . . . .

any "evil outsider" hunter (meta)-organization should be at your heels ;), i am tempted to build a character with "fey heritage" just for the flavor of it ;)
