#2 DwarfLordSeven May 20, 2015 8:18:15	Since Spellfury already gives the bonus damage, the Spellfury Empowered spell ability might be redundant, and we might do this one instead:   Spellfury Force Aura: Beginning at 6th Level, while your spellfury is active, whenever you take damage from a creature within 5 feet of you, that creature takes force damage equal to your spellfury bonus damage plus your charisma modifier.
#3 Marandahir May 20, 2015 8:29:34	So basically, magical Barbarian?
#4 DwarfLordSeven May 20, 2015 8:54:25	That's the idea, yeah
#5 durntaur May 20, 2015 10:51:39	I love it. It follows the template of sorcerer origins making it easy to compare, the Spellfury feature is prominent throughout making a cohesive design, and it differentiates itself from the other origins.   I definitely think you should use the aura instead of the baked-in metamagic. Additionally, it might be more balanced if the aura damage occurs on a failed Dexterity check and uses the PC's reaction. This would make it fall in line with similar class mechanics like the Battlemaster's Riposte maneuver. However, given that it is force damage, I would consider adding the secondary effect of  a push on failed Strength check.   Excellent design!   EDIT: as I reread the build after posting my suggestions for the aura, I realized that it conflicts with the L18 feature. I stand by my suggestion for the aura because it balances better, but it becomes almost obsoleted by the L18 feature, as is.
#6 HermanTheWize May 20, 2015 10:52:54	Like the Scorcerer version of the Battle Mage.
#7 Thaenok May 20, 2015 11:01:37	This reminds me of the Simbul from the Forgotten Realms. If anyone is a berserking spellcaster, it is her.
#8 Marandahir May 29, 2015 17:25:45	Honestly, I'd go one step further and call this the "Wilder" and say that you don't have to use minor components for spells, even without a focus, thus making it a Psionic subclass of Sorcerer. That's basically what the Wilder is.
