What variety would you be, and for whatever reason?

Storm, here. I love storms, especially thunder storms. When they're approaching, I love the staticky feel in the air, the strange color the clouds turn, and the distant flashes and rumbles that tell you you're in for an ear-shattering night.

My cats don't enjoy it as much as I do, but they're weird like that.

If you were a Sorcerer I'd definitely eat a ham sandwich.

I'd probably go for Dragon Magic Sorcerer because they seem like they could tank better. However I think I could probably tank well with any of the Sorcerer builds. I guess the DMS might be the bester one to be because their Str gives them the better natural Basic Attack.

I'd be a 3.5 sorcerer. Sure, I might not be as versatile as the wizard, but I still get wish.

Dragon Mage Sorcerer, just because of the fact that I love dragons: I always have. Being able to turn into one would be freaking AWESOME.

Dragon. Because dragons are awesome. Storm would be a close second.

I torn, the general idea of the Cosmic Sorcerer I adore. But actual Spells and such I prefer the Storm Sorcerer.

Though I would hope to not be a Sorcerer in general, rather by a Psionic, Rogue and/or Mad Scientist/Technician (Pseudoscience and SCIENCE! for the win).

Totally. People often forgot that even if the sorcerer was a little less powerful than the wizard he still gets 9th level spells => ridiculously powerful.

In 4th Edition, I'd go for the cosmic sorcerer. Despite my alleged insanity, I'm a very gentle soul. I think that fits not-worst with cosmic magic.

As every good little girl and boy should be


I would be a chaos sorcerer, no question about it. There are few things I love quite as much as inconsistency.

I would be a Storm Sorcerer, whose grandfather/grandmother was a Djinn; when I use my powers, my lower body would go all tornado-ey!

Oh, sorry. I'd go for Storm, Pretty much for the same reasons as Shiftkitty.

If i were a sorcerer, i would go chaos...nothing beats speakign ancient words of power and seeing what they do without exactly knowing.

then would i wanted tobe a dragon sorcerer because i adore Dragons in any shape or form and in old editions its mostly where they got their power. Nothing beats at backstory making than having a dragon in your family ^^

then storm maybe, because as the Op i like storms and thunder and lightning!

I played a Chaos Sorceror. And then I stopped. Strikers aren't any fun for me. So, if I were a Sorceror, I'd much rather be playing a Controller. Or a Defender. :P

Hmm.. I'd have to go for the Chaos sorcerer.

To quote the Joker - "I just want to introduce a little anarchy.."

That and so "Hwee can cap-toor waffles for kay-oss!"

If I was a sorcerer...

I'd be kickin' all of the Hobgoblin's butts with my array of spells, and slice the Beholder in two!

I'd also multiclass with the Monk. KICKASS!!!

With that in mind, I'd be able to enhance my Monk abilities with magic to deal extra damage. I'd be a Martial Sorcerer at best!

+ = KICKASS!!!

Damn it all, I love you Ellorin.

...I must figure out how to make a bard who excels at fiddling on roof tops...maybe I could multiclass him with one of those classes which gets spider climb type powers so he could scramble up buildings during fights...

And, oh, hey, speaking of sorcerers...you might hate me for what I'm going to do in your campaign with mine...if what I'm planning turns out to be legal, I'm not quite sure yet.

I am going to love playing my Chaos sorcerer, but they are probably the most complicated class build in the game (I mean 4e, to clarify) so far. Different effects on odd or even rolls, random damage resistance, crazy attack effects that only apply about half the time, pushing all creatures within 5 squares of you 1 square on a natural 1...

...as I see it, running a chaos sorcerer is like gambling at a casino where you always win, win big, or lose and then the casino turns into a pie shop where they're giving out free pies.

I'd much rather be a Bard than a Sorceror, simply because you'd get more tail and devotees that way...

But if I had to be a Sorceror... I guess I'd be one that focused on powers that would you know... help me on a day-to-day business. Teleportation, fly, invisibility, read/speak any language, haste myself, create light, charm people, etc.... see, these things would be so very cool to be able to do! The spells may suck in the context of the game, but in real life there really isn't any good reason to throw fireballs and lightning bolts around... but putting someone under a love spell or gaining super speed to get my work done in half the time or skip the commute and just instantly appear at work at will... that would be incredibly cool!
