-=Introduction=-

Wield divine power with two new Sorcerer kits inspired by the ever so popular 5th Edition Divine Soul. The namesake is able to pick from the Sorcerer and Cleric spell lists. Does this sound overpowered? Then be ready to face analysis paralysis as you try to make room for the power of the gods in your ever so tiny spell book!
Any why do always Clerics get all the love? Get in touch with nature as the brand new Primordial Spirit kit drawing spells from the Sorcerer and Druid spell lists.

-=Components=-

[100] Mirror all standard divine spells as arcane spells

• Mandatory base to allow our special sorcerers to access the space of divine spells
• (If anyone is interested: you are allowed to tap into these spells with your mod, but by default they are disabled for all other kits)
  

[200] Divine Soul, a Sorcerer kit with access to all Cleric spells

DIVINE SOUL: Divine Souls are blessed with the innate magic of a Sorcerer coming from a divine source that glimmers within the soul. This can be a distant but powerful familial connection to a divine being, be it in blood or by an ancient prophecy making them chosen vessels of divine magic.

Advantages:
– May learn divine spells from the Cleric spell list as additional arcane spells.
– May heal one more hit point per spell level with any cure spell.
– May use Favored by the Gods as per the Luck spell only on <PRO_HIMHER>self once per day.
– May use Divine Affinity once to attune the alignment of <PRO_HISHER> divine source and gain one additional corresponding level one spell.

Disadvantage:
– May cast one fewer spell per level per day.

[300] Primordial Spirit, a Sorcerer kit with access to all Druid spells

PRIMORDIAL SPIRIT: Primordial Spirits posses a spiritual bond to the land itself from which they are allowed to draw their innate magic. Some belief them to be ancient spirits walking the world for the first time. Certainly not wiser for it than others, they typically express a more balanced temperament.

Advantages:
– May learn divine spells from the Druid spell list as additional arcane spells.
– May use Voice of the Ancients as per the Vocalize spell once per day.
– The Entangle spell is added to <PRO_HISHER> known spells as an arcane spell.
– Immune to the effects of the Entangle and Spike Growth spells.

Disadvantage:
– May cast one fewer spell per level per day.
– Alignment restricted to be at least partially neutral.

-=Installation=-

Extract the mod archive directly into your game directory. Launch the WEIDU installer "Setup-SCI-Divine-Soul.exe" and follow instructions on screen.
To change or uninstall the modification start it again and select the corresponding actions.

-=Compatibility=-

This mod is developed for the EE games under windows. It provides native support of English and German.

It will detect and apply any vanilla or modded spell available for the base classes to the new kits. Make sure to have all spells installed before this mod or they will be missed. In particular it will react to the spells "Curse" and "Spike Growth" either from native IWD or sources like IWDification which are not strictly required but strongly recommended for the best experience on BG games. Hence, it belongs into the kits section of an extended modification.

-=Known Quirks=-

- Some liberty was required when converting the 5E Divine Soul to the Infinity engine. I tried to stay close to the spirit of each ability in similar fashion as had been done with the Dragon Disciple. But I skipped "Unearthly Recovery" as this would have been a special HLA of most underwhelming power.
- These kits still count as Sorcerers for all intents and purposes. This includes item restrictions and especially divine spell scrolls. I would have liked to alleviate this, but it is not possible without unlocking those for all Mage types first.
- Cleric alignment restrictions on spells do not apply to wizard type casters. You can pick spells outside your alignment - and watch them backfire!

-=Incompatibility=-

None I am aware of. Please tell if you find any.

First and foremost my utmost gratitude to the wonderful modding community which transcended this game into an unparalleled masterpiece over the decades.

This mod would not have been possible without OlvynChuru's ClassSpellTool. My special thanks for releasing it to the public and to everyone who partook in the helpful discussion on its best application.
