Greetings Folks!

I have a simple question about Varisian Tatoos . . .

Can the Varisian Tatoo be taken for a school of magic more than once or are they limited to just one tatoo per school?

Thanks for your help!

The Varisian Tattoo feat cannot be taken twice--it lacks the "Special: You can gain this feat multiple times." tag that would allow you to do so.

I should'a known that . . . Thats what happens when I'm in the zone i guess . . . :-)

Although, thinking about it some ore, as the Spell Focus can be taken multiple times, it just doesn't stack, it makes sense that the VT could be taken once per instance of Spell Focus . . .

Yeah... the bonus granted by the tattoos is pretty strong. Plus, there's a fair amount of implied interactions (including prohibited schools) between the schools of magic from Thassilon and Varisian culture, so it wouldn't make sense to combine too many tattoos.

In Pathfinder 5, we'll be running a Magic of Thassilon section that may have some more feats and spells and stuff to build on this feat, though. Higher level stuff, for the most part, that PCs wouldn't really have access to until they're around 15th level, so it's nothing to worry about yet...


The spell like ability (and its Varisian name)..

Umm, the Varisian names seem to be missing both in the pdf and the printed book.

Are they listed somewhere ?

They also appear in print in Pathfinder 3.
