Hello everyone,
in our last session one of my players died with a new character. Since he liked the character very much he used the second chance boon.
Since he still has under 12 XP, the question now is, can he use the Rebuilding Your Character rules to choose the Returned background?
Rebuilding Your Character:
After playing a new character, you might find aspects of your character you would like to change. Don’t worry! Until you play a game in which your character starts with 12 or more XP, you can freely rebuild your character completely. The character retains their Reputation earned and character number. Once you begin a session as a second level character, you still have options for changing your character’s choices through Achievement Point purchases or Retraining.
You cannot use Rebuilding or Retraining to build a character that could not be built without using either of those two tools.
i've played my first few Games in PFS as GM.
I have read the The PFS Guide, but there are some things i dont understand.
1. Whats the Thing with the boon slots?
As in this Thread Can-someone-explain-boons explained, every Player has 5 boon slots. But i can't find anything about these 5 boon slots in the linked PFS-Guide. The only rules i found are these:
Boons:
Boons
Boons are rewards that can be applied to a character. Common types of boons include Achievement Points (AcP), Chronicle, or Faction. Boons often have traits that describe how the boon applies. There are some boon traits that deserve specific mention:
Advanced: A boon with the Advanced trait is typically more powerful than other boons. Characters may only benefit from one advanced boon during an adventure.
Ally: A boon with the Ally trait sometimes places a Pawn. This does not allow players to bypass the limits on the number of Pawns they can play.
Unless a boon states otherwise, you can only apply one of any given boon to a character.
As I understand it, I can use all my boons, but only one of them may be advanced.
Am I missing something or is it just outdated?
2. Who is my local event coordinator?
The Guide tell me one of my duties as Game Master is to communicate with your local event coordinator. How do I find out who that is? Is there a list or something like that?
3. Can Player trade goods?
Since the rules for buying and selling are very strict, I wonder if players are allowed to trade with each other.
For example, if one of my players owns a katana and another player wants to buy it from him (without having the access). Would that be allowed? If so, are there any rules for this?
Or the players don't have enough money to buy an item individually (for example a healer tool for treat wounds), but they could pool their money. Would it be allowed to do that, even if only one later owns the healer tool and enters it in his chronicle?
