* The Sorcerer class in the third edition of ''[[Dungeons and Dragons]]'' is an inborn mage, as opposed to the Wizard, who has to nose through his spellbook in order to prepare spells. Many Sorcerers claim to have a dragon or other powerful being [[Half-Human Hybrid|as an ancestor]], though the truth of such claims depends on the player and the [[Game Master]].
** The Warlock class has it a bit more concrete: In 3rd edition, they gain fey-like powers, to match their implied origin of [[The Fair Folk|fey ancestry]] (or some kind of pact), or can instead select [[Deal with the Devil|fiendish attributes]] for much the same reason. In 4th edition, this is illustrated via selecting a [[The Fair Folk|fey]], [[Deal with the Devil|infernal]], or [[Cosmic Horror|star]] pact.
