Inherited power from mythic ancestry, curses, blessings, dragon exposure, saint blood, or abyssal contact.

Tags: sorcery, lineage, inheritance, proof-audited.
Classification: Bloodline Sorcery is embodied inherited power. It is not learned spellcraft and not moral proof. It appears through ancestry, curse, blessing, dragon exposure, saint blood, abyssal contact, or generations living near mythic residue.
Source: body, blood memory, family trauma, old unions, cursed vows, saint relic exposure, dragon domain seepage, and inherited names. A sorcerer may manifest before understanding language, law, or personal danger.
Common lines: dawn-blood produces light sensitivity, judgment flares, and oath resonance; storm-touched bodies call pressure and static; ember-vein heats blood and metal; moon-sighted perceive memory reflections; grave-hearing senses unsettled dead; beast-marked share instincts with sacred or monstrous animals; abyss-hungry lines feel command appetite early.
Stages: First Sign is an uncontrolled childhood symptom. Family Discipline teaches concealment and safety. Named Manifestation lets the sorcerer repeat a limited effect. Deep Inheritance reveals older family costs. Sovereign Expression is rare and politically dangerous because the body becomes evidence of mythic claim.
