Arcane wellspring An arcane wellspring is a sorcerer for whom the wielding of arcane magic comes even more easily , almost instinctively than it does for even other sorcerers . When an arcane wellspring unleashes its power , it does not flow , but rather erupts , bellowing forth from them like an arcane geyser . To an arcane wellspring , magic is less a stream of power they let flow through them than a part of their very being , as much as their flesh or blood . Eventually , this becomes physical , to the point that arcane wellsprings actually transform into pure arcane energy time for a time . Abilities . Arcane wellsprings have a number of unique features universal to them , acquired through their intense connection to the arcane . Unlike most sorcerers , arcane wellsprings have resistance to two or more forms of energy at once , rather than one , an affinity which transfers also to their attack spell s for extra lethality against creatures with a similar resistance . Arcane wellsprings also have wider coverage for their spells , enabling them to attack multiple opponents at once , and with additional training they can teleport an equal number creatures hit by their spells . Arcane wellspring spells are often transmutative in form , transforming the very nature of the sorcerer casting them . For instance , the spell " sorcerous wings " causes wings formed from arcane energy to sprout from the caster ' s back , allowing them to fly for a brief time . " Sorcerous metamorphosis " , however , is easily the most impressive arcane wellspring spell , transforming the caster from a physical body into one made of pure arcane energy .
