But Sorcerer's aren't the only one to use CHR, and Ancient Sea Horses are Stupid powerful, (Not regular Sea Horses). Ancient Sea Horses, for the cost of a feat, get +2 CHR, Darkvision 60, +1 to attack and damge while even in just an inch of water and +1 to all water spells. Like, no DM is ever gonna allow a player to use them.
And while I'll take the argument that it encourages all classes to be Sorcerer's (and I do like that idea), I still find it awkward that no one is going to play a bard.
But here's the problem. You say it encourages all the ponies to be Sorcerer's, but why would you play a Sorcerer when you can play a Unicorn Wizard? Or a Cleric where the Wisdom bonus matters? People are gonna play less Pony Sorcerer's because their is no incentive to play them, and while the Unity bloodline is nice, its not close to being overpowered enough to provide incentive to play Sorcerer's.
Also.... there is NO reason to play bards. Bards demand Dex and CHR, and most ponies lose dex and none provide CHR, so the two classes that their should exist the most of, make no mechanical sense.
