Craft (Alchemy) - identical to that of an Alchemist.

Inspiration (Ex): An investigator is beyond skilled and knowledgeable--he also possesses keen powers of observation and deduction above and beyond the abilities of others. An investigator typically uses these powers to aid in their investigations, but can use these flashes of inspiration for other situations.

An investigator has the ability to augment skill checks and ability checks through his brilliant inspiration. The investigator has an inspiration pool equal to 1/2 his investigator level + his Intelligence bonus, minimum 1. As a free action, he can expend one use of inspiration from his pool to add 1d6 to the result of that check (including any he takes 10 or 20 on). This choice is made after the check is rolled and before the results are revealed. An investigator can only use inspiration once per check or roll. The investigator can use inspiration on any Knowledge, Linguistics, or Spellcraft skill checks without spending a use of inspiration, provided he is trained in that skill. An investigator's inspiration pool refreshes each day, typically after he gets a restful night's sleep.

Inspiration can also be used on attack rolls and saving throws, though at the cost of expending two uses of inspiration from the investigator's pool. In the case of saving throws, using inspiration is an immediate action rather than a free action

Trapfinding: An investigator adds half his level to Perception skill checks made to locate traps and to Disable Device checks (minimum 1). An investigator can use Disable Device to disarm magical traps.

Ceaseless Observation (Ex): An empiricist's ability to notice the minutiae of almost everything that happens around him allows him to make shrewd and insightful calculations about people and even inanimate objects. At 2nd level, an empiricist uses his Intelligence modifier instead of the skill's typical ability for all Disable Device, Perception, Sense Motive, and Use Magic Device checks. He can also use his Intelligence modifier instead of Charisma on any Diplomacy checks made to gather information. This ability replaces poison lore and poison resistance.

Keen Recollection: At 3rd level, an investigator can attempt all Knowledge skill checks untrained.

Trap Sense (Ex): At 3rd level, an investigator gains an intuitive sense that alerts him to danger from traps, granting him a +1 bonus on Ref lex saving throws to avoid traps and a +1 dodge bonus to AC against attacks by traps. At 6th level and every 3 levels thereafter, these bonuses increase by 1 (to a maximum of +6 at 18th level).

Unfailing Logic (Ex): An empiricist’s grasp of facts and data teaches him to anchor himself in reality, granting resistance to even the most potent illusions. At 4th level, an empiricist gains a +2 insight bonus on all Will saving throws against illusion spells or spell-like abilities that allow a save to disbelieve their effects. In addition he can spend one point from his inspiration pool as an immediate action to use his Intelligence bonus instead of her Wisdom bonus on all such saves for one round.

At 8th level, the empiricist’s insight bonus increases to +4. At 16th level, he gains immunity to all illusion spells and spell-like abilities that allow a save to disbelieve the effects. This ability replaces swift alchemy.

Studied Combat (Ex): With a keen eye and calculating mind, an investigator can assess the mettle of his opponent to take advantage of gaps in talent and training. At 4th level, an investigator can use a move action to study a single enemy that he can see. Upon doing so, he adds 1/2 his investigator level as an insight bonus on melee attack rolls and as a bonus on damage rolls against the creature. This effect lasts for a number of rounds equal to his Intelligence modif ier (minimum 1) or until he deals damage with a studied strike, whichever comes first. The bonus on damage rolls is precision damage, and is not multiplied on a critical hit.

An investigator can only have one target of studied combat at a time, and once a creature has become the target of an investigator’s studied combat, he cannot become the target of the same investigator’s studied combat again for 24 hours unless the investigator expends one use of inspiration when taking the move action to use this ability.

Studied Strike (Ex): At 4th level, an investigator can choose to make a studied strike against the target of his studied combat as a free action, upon successfully hitting his studied target with a melee attack, to deal additional damage. The damage is 1d6 at 4th level, and increases by 1d6 for every 2 levels thereafter (to a maximum of 9d6 at 20th level). The damage of studied strike is precision damage and is not multiplied on a critical hit; creatures that are immune to sneak attacks are also immune to studied strike.

If the investigator’s attack used a weapon that deals nonlethal damage (like a sap, whip, or an unarmed strike), he may choose to have the additional damage from studied strike be nonlethal damage instead of lethal damage. If the investigator chose to make an attack with a lethal weapon instead deal nonlethal damage (with the usual –4 penalty), the studied strike damage may also deal nonlethal damage.

The investigator must be able to see the target well enough to pick out a vital spot and must be able to reach such a spot. An investigator cannot use studied strike against a creature with concealment.

[Talents
Device Talent(Ex): The investigator can use the Use Magic Device skill even if not trained in that skill. If the investigator is trained in Use Magic Device, he can use the inspiration ability with that skill without expending uses of inspiration.

Underworld Inspiration(Ex): An investigator can use his inspiration on Bluff, Disable Device, Disguise, Intimidate, or Sleight of Hand checks without expending uses of inspiration, provided he’s trained in the skill

Expanded Inspiration (Ex): An investigator can use his inspiration ability when attempting Diplomacy, Heal, Perception, Profession, and Sense Motive checks without expending uses of inspiration, provided he’s trained in the skill.

Riftwarden Magic: In gratitude for your heroism, the Riftwardens have shared several of their organization's spells with the Pathfinder Society. So long as you possess this boon, all of your Pathfinder Society Organized Play characters have access to the following spells from Pathfinder Player Companion: [u]Demon Slayer's Handbook[/u] as if they appeared on the Additional Resources page: anti-summoning shield, protection from outsiders, and telepathic censure.

Ghalcor's Spell craft: Following the battle at Ghalcor's Tower, you were able to study the dead cleric's notes and discovered that he also developed a handful of powerful spells. Now the Pathfinder Society and the Mendevian Crusade can wield these in the fight against the Worldwound. So long as you possess this boon, all of your Pathfinder Society Organized Play characters have access to the following spells from Pathfinder Player Companion: [u]Demon Hunter's Handbook[/u] as if they appeared on the Additional Resources page: burst with light, detect demon, and righteous blood.

Irrisen & Yagevna: The Yagevna family in Irrisen recognizes you as a close associate for freeing their daughter, Natalya, from her icy prison. When in Irrisen, you gain a +2 circumstance bonus on all diplomacy rolls when you mention the Yagevna family and how you assisted them.

Confirmed Field Agent Having successfully and documented your Confirmation, one of the Three Masters has formally recognized you as a field agent and given you a wayfinder engraved with your name and the date of your graduation. If this is the first time you have received this boon for any of your characters, you receive this wayfinder for free; otherwise, you may acquire it by spending 1 Prestige Point. Furthermore, if you assign this Chronicle sheet to a character whose starting XP is 0, you reduce the Prestige Point cost of any wayfinder enhancement vanities you purchase to modify this wayfinder by 1 (minimum 1).

Explore, Report, Cooperate: You have an excellent sense of what makes an exemplary Pathfinder. As a free or immediate action, you may consider whether a particular action you name—such as subduing but not killing an enemy, befriending an NPC, or recovering a particular item—would help realize the goals of the Pathfinder Society. The GM then informs you whether the action’s impact would be positive (contributes to meeting a secondary success condition for the scenario), negative (opposes the secondary success condition), or negligible (neither contributes to nor opposes the secondary success condition). If none of these three options accurately reflects the action’s impact on the PC’s fulfillment of the secondary success conditions, the GM may respond with a phrase of five words or less. Once you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle sheet.

Armed to the Teeth (Sczarni Faction): Now that Guaril knows where his enemies hide, he is sparing no expense to ensure his agents are prepared for anything. The next time you travel to Kae Maga for a Pathfinder Society mission, Guaril Karela gives you a single item worth up to 250 gp. You don't have to choose the item until the mission begins.

Masterful Performance: As a reward for exonerating the Umbral Carnival, Amara Delisen taught you a few tricks of stage presence and misdirection. You gain one of the following benefits, chosen at the time you use the ability (a swift action): a +3 bonus on a Bluff check to feint in combat or create a diversion to hide, a +3 bonus on an Intimidate check to demoralize an opponent, a +3 bonus on any Sleight of Hand check, or a +1 bonus to the caster level and DC of any one enchantment or illusion spell you cast. When you use this ability, cross it off the Chronicle sheet.

Clockwork Spy you recovered a broken clockwork creation, but without extensive repairs it will never function again. You may spend 50 gp to attempt to repair the construct. If you then succeed at a DC 30 Craft (clockwork) or Disable Device check you may spend an additional 325 gp to restore the clockwork spy to full working condition (see page 58 of the Pathfinder RPG Bestiary 3), after which it follows your simple commands. You may take 10 on this check but may not take 20, as the 50 gpis consumed whether or not you succeed at your skill check. You may substitute spending 2 PP for either of these skill checks but must pay the requisite gold for the repair. The clockwork spy cannot be repaired if it uses its self-distruct ability anytime thereafter You must bring a copy of the Pathfinder RPG Bestiary 3 to any game in which you plan to use the clockwork spy, as if it were available as an additional resource.

Mythic Legacy: Although your mythic power was short-lived, you have retained a small reserve of that legendary essence for use later. When you activate this ability as a free action, choose one feat that you have. For one round (or as long as it takes to complete a skill check modified by the feat), you gain the benefits ofthe mythic version of that feat as if you had also expended one use of mythic power. When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle sheet.

Scrutiny of the Stars:Performing an eldritch ritual temporarily granted you power,but it also attracted the attention ofsome creature from beyond the stars. The haunting certainty that the someone is watching you leaves you paranoid, and whenever you are confused and roll to determine your behavior in a given round, add 5 to the result. In addition, whenever you sleep, there is a 20% chance that the alien entity attempts to contact you and torments your dreams with terrifying visions, as per the spell nightmare (DC17). If you are a sorcerer with the aberrant bloodline, you ignore these effects and instead gain an additional daily use of your acidic ray bloodline ability. You may cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet if you are the target of a heal spell while under the effects of nondetection.

O The Favor of Cartahegn: While in a settlement of 5.ooo people or more anywhere on the continent of Garund, you may purchase mundane equipment (but not weapons or armor) through your favorable connections with House Cartahegan at a 10% discount.

Azlanti Wonders: While interviewing the Azlanti general Krahnaliara Lac Suhn, you learned the location of an Azlanti site that might have survived millennia or tragedy and looting. When you adventure in a ruin, archaeological site, or other structure that predates Earthfall (approximately 10,000 years ago, including more Azlanti and Thassilonian sites), you can cross this boon off your Chronicle sheet and choose two of the following: AC, attack rolls, saving throws, or skill checks. For the duration of the adventure while you are exploring the site, you gain a +1 insight bonus on the selected rolls or to your Armor Class.

[b]Timelost Chronicler[b]: You have journeyed through the ancient serpentfolk city of Sessegishoss and witnessed the fall of the Starstone, granting you a remarkable perspective of Golarion’s history. You gain a permanent +1 bonus on Knowledge (history) checks from your first-hand knowledge. Once per scenario you may call on the nascent power granted by your exposure to the falling Starstone to find inner greatness, granting you a +1 morale bonus to a single d20 roll. You must declare your use of this power before the roll is made.
