What the Sczarni Front PA applies to


Pathfinder Society

5/5 5/5 *

The description for the Sczarni "Front" Prestige Award in the PFS Field Guide says it applies to lower-case-b businesses. I'm wondering if this can only be applied to the capital-B Businesses under Vanities or if any of the other vanities that modify Day Job checks also apply (Caravan, Farmstead, Ship, etc) that would constitute a "business" that your character is the owner of.

I tried splicing this by being hyper-RAW about it, but that wasn't helpful. The description for Front uses the word "business" but doesn't say it has to be something that is under the list of the Businesses sub-section of Vanities (it only refers you to Chapter 5). But it also doesn't say the bonus provided by the Front has to apply to Day Job checks made using the skill associated with the Business, either (though this would be a weird interpretation).

First rule of scarni business is we don't discuss sczarni business...

value of the item.
Front (Fame 40, 2 PP) Your Sczarni contacts help you
set up a front for your criminal operations. If you own
a business (see Chapter Five), you gain an additional +3
circumstance bonus on all Day Job checks, representing
illicit income generated on top of your legitimate income.

I can't see that as anything other than an additional +3 with all the businesses from that chapter (farm, caravan, bar etc)

That was my initial interpretation as well; it was just that certain ones are under a "Business" list that was throwing me off.
