Changing factions

Silver Crusade 3/5

What happens if you had a level 1 and played 1 scenario with a faction then changed your character up and faction do you lose the 2 pp of fame and pp you just earned from the 1st scenario and start over with 0?

You never lose your fame. Changing factions has a set cost of 3PP per the Guide to Pathfinder Society Organized Play, page 19.

"If at any point you become disillusioned with your faction, you can change to a new one. The longer you have spent in service to a faction, the higher the relative cost to change to one that trusts you less and hasn’t seen firsthand your ability to forward their goals. Changing your faction costs a number of Prestige Points equal to 3 times your character level, but does not alter your Fame score. (Prestige Points and Fame are fully explained in Chapter 5). You retain your faction traits, if any, but lose any faction-specific Prestige Awards you have accumulated during your time with your old faction; generic Prestige Awards from Table 5–4 and Vanities (Pathfinder Society Field Guide 60) are unaffected."

You can also change your faction as part of rebuilding the character at any time until you have played him at higher than 1st level.

So since I only played him one scenario then changing him to another faction is free Starglim? Does my prestige points start over with the new faction?

As long as it's part of your first level rebuild you keep your fame, prestige, gold, everything.

But that's your only pass, after that, the penalties and costs on the Campaign Guide apply full force.

How can you change factions between level 1 and level 2 for an online character?

He has not been played at or above level 2, so can be rebuilt.

You can change the faction displayed for a Paizo account through My Pathfinder Society.
