Hello everyone. I hope I am posting in the right subforum. I'm hoping to gift PDFs in the future, but I had one question:

If I gift someone a PDF, does it use their own account Watermark?

I'm asking mostly because I know having your own Watermark is important for playing in Society. I of course want the recipients to be able to play Society if they so choose. If it uses the Watermark of the person it's gifted to, rather than the person who gifted it (hope that makes sense) then it's all good! I'm like 99% certain that's how it would work, but just wanted to confirm. Thank you very much! :)

Hello everyone! I have a question for what happens in the event of a canine catastrophe. If a pet eats a chronicle, what are your options? My dog loves to take things and bring them to my room. Sometimes he also loves to chew on them and roll around on my bed. Most of the time they are safely in my backpack, but I set that one aside earlier in the day. When I finished my shower I found him like that.

Thankfully it was not so bad in this instance because the character died permanently. I didn't want to cut into my friends' gold for my own Res; so he was completely gone. The chronicle in question was just a blank one that says "DIED!" Still, this could easily have happened to an important character. I'm hoping the answer is not "scotch tape."

Hello everyone! I know there are a lot of threads on Mystic Bolt already, but I don't recall seeing this specific topic. This question is also for a PFS Character, so hopefully there's not too much risk of variation.

If I use an Acid Mystic Bolt with the Corrosive Weapon property, are both d6s totaled before applying Energy Resistance? Same basic question applies to Fire Mystic Bolt with Flaming, Cold Mystic Bolt with Frost etc.

Corrosive states that it deals an "extra" 1d6 Acid damage. For the majority of weapons, that means it doesn't pierce Energy Resist 10 because most weapons deal Bludgeoning, Piercing, or Slashing and the extra Acid damage is a maximum of 6. Mystic Bolt is a little unique in that it already deals elemental damage. For what it's worth, I believe extra damage from similar effects like Vicious, Holy, and Bane are totaled before applying DR.

Thank you very much! :)

Hi everyone! I see that Promethean Alchemists are surprisingly legal in PFS. Their companions are a bit unusual, so I wanted to know how item slot rules work for Homonculi in Society. For example, Animal Companions get restricted slots, and Eidolons take slots from their Summoner. I'm not sure how Phantoms work, but I imagine it's the same sort of thing. However, I can't find any rules about Prometheans' Homonculi.

I did a forum search using Paizo's own search tool, as well as Google's. Couldn't really find anything. Any help is appreciated!

Hello everybody! I'm planning to create an eventual Gunslinger 1/Inquisitor 10 for my next PFS character. I've never made a character who uses firearms before, because it takes a few levels and a few feats to get comfortable.

My solution is to start Level 1 as a Human Inquisitor (with a Longbow) so I can start immediately with Point-Blank and Precise Shot. I can also heal right away, including CLW Wands without UMD after my first chronicle. There are some downsides, like losing the extra starting HP and Dex to Damage. But Inquisitor gets my Favored Class Bonus at least.

Can you get the free starting gun from Gunsmithing even if you take Gunslinger after Level 1? I don't plan to dip in Gunslinger until Level 3 when I pick up Rapid Reload. I read the text and asked some of my friends, but it's kind of ambiguous. It says "At 1st level" but that could mean either 1st Character Level or 1st Class Level.

Hello everybody! Pathfinder Society and its community have helped me so much that I wanted to express my gratitude for my PFS region San Diego, as well as all the PFS regions and Pathfinders involved in my favorite game. All the people I have met and all the adventures I have embarked upon have been such a positive influence on my life.

Ever since I was very young, I have had trouble socializing with people. It was extremely difficult making friends in school, and I was bullied often. Eventually my school psychologist diagnosed me with Asperger's Syndrome, which was confirmed when my parents brought me to a clinical psychologist. I struggle with social interaction and talking to others. It took me years to be able to look people in the eye. I was miserable when it came to interacting with anyone outside my family. Until I worked up my courage and went to my first PFS Game Day at At Ease Games.

My intro game was a great experience. Although it was my first RPG ever, I was able to somewhat grasp the rules from my mechanical knowledge of Dungeons and Dragons videogames. I still struggled with social interaction, but I just pretended I was brave like my pregen (Amiri!). I went back the next day. And to the next event, followed by the one after. I believe I have gone to the vast majority of events in the region ever since that day.

It is the community that keeps me coming back. All my amazing friends. The Organizers, GMs, and Players. My wonderful Venture Officers in San Diego are Venture Captain Eric Brittain, Venture Lieutenant Joanna Gore, and Venture Lieutenant Sean Ennis.

They have all done so much to make me feel welcome and safe when I play. No one treats me any differently based on my condition, and everyone is kind and understanding. I have gained real friends, but more importantly confidence. I used to be afraid to leave the house, but not long after I joined PFS I used what I learned to get my very first job in my whole life. I can talk to people without being scared, and I have made friends outside the PFS community. I look forward to meeting the forum community as well.

I was scared, but not anymore. Thank you all so much.
