Need a little help on Character Traits.


General Discussion (Prerelease)

Silver Crusade

A player and I are at odds with how each of us thinks the Character Traits work, by that I mean does it count against your 1st level bonus feat, and replace it with two traits?

Our disagreement is rather the; yes it does count against your 1st level bonus feat and uses it up. Or No it doesn't, so sit down shaddup and enjoy the game already.

So give me your 2 coppers on if the charcater traits count against the bonus feat at 1st level or nay!

Many thanks in advance.


From the Legacy of Fire Player's Guide:

"In most campaigns, PCs select two traits at character creation, effectively gaining a bonus feat."

and from the Pathfinder Character Traits freebie:

"When you create your character for a campaign, ask your GM how many traits you can select. In most cases, a new PC should gain two traits, effectively gaining a bonus feat at character creation. Some GMs may wish to limit this somewhat, depending upon their style of play; you may only be able to pick one trait, or your GM might allow three or more."

So, it can vary by campaign. The "standard" is that you gain two without using your 1st level feat, but the GM may change that. No ambiguity at all from what I can see.
