Hi -

Is Defender of the Society, out of Pathfinder Chronicles, Legal for PFS?

In reading the Additional Resource text, it's not specifically called out, but I'd think that it's no longer legal.

Thanks for your help!

Additional Resources Text:
As of 3/7/11, the Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign Setting has been replaced by the Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Inner Sea World Guide. Equipment, feats, and prestige classes already in play remain legal, but no further equipment may be purchased from this book, nor may a character take a feat or the first level in a prestige class from this source when gaining a new level. Any rules element which has been updated in the Inner Sea World Guide (as denoted with an asterisk below) MUST use the version in the World Guide. If the updated version of a feat has prerequisites you no longer meet, you may ignore those prerequisites.

Equipment: wayfinder, all weapons on page 209, all armor on page 211 (except the armored kilt), all gear on page 213*; Feats: Aldori Dueling Master*, Altitude Affinity*, Andoren Falconry*, Arcane Vendetta*, Berserker's Cry, Careful Speaker*, Cosmopolitan, Crossbow Mastery, Demon Hunter*, Desperate Battler*, Fey Foundling*, Focused Shot, Godless Healing*, Green Faith Acolyte*, Katheer Scholar, Massed Charge, Molthuni Discipline* (replaced with Focused Discipline), Necromantic Resistance, Parting Shot, Rugged, Sniper Shot, Stoic*, Storm-Lashed*, Teleport Sense, Twisted Flesh, Warped Mind, Veiled Vileness, Vermin Heart, and Wand Dancer*; Prestige Classes: Low Templar*, Shackles Pirate

You'll note that traits are not mentioned anywhere there.

That particular trait is still legal for fighters-only in PFS (except in Core-mode)

Your quoting the wrong source book I believe. It is specifically allowed:

** spoiler omitted **

Nothing from Pathfinder Chronicles is legal to use in a new character. However if those same items are now made legal in a new source such as Faction Guide, you can use them IF you own the latter book.

There are no traits in Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign Setting. As it predates the Character Traits Web Enhancement where traits were first introduced as a concept.

You're right - I'm completely quoting the wrong sourcebook - thank you Maezer!
