Help a newb understand the paperwork.

Ok so here's the situation,

Played a PFS game with a Andoran character called Alexalin last year at Paizocon 09 but never registered her online (though I used a conflicting character number from the looks of it)

GMed two PFS games last weekend at Paizocon 2010 and am interested in converting the character from 3.5 and possibly applying the GMing credit to the character.

As I understand it I may be eligible to build Alexalin as any Andoran level 2 character with 500 gp + the value of treasure from both scenarios but without boons from year of the shadow lodge. However I'm not sure how that works with the online system, or if I missed some salient paperwork at the con.

Any guidance or advice from those who have been at this for a while longer?


I am not sure of all the details, but I am pretty sure you have to convert the character from 3.5 to PRPG before you include it with the two games you ran. So converting a character with one whole XP and maybe one PA would probably not be worth it. It would be better to make a fresh character to apply the two chronicle sheets to from last weekend. Also remember, with the current system, even though you played in that scenario last year, you can still run it and get your GM credit for a character that is not the same as the one played, so long as it was not one of the scenarios that has been retired.

This is what I would suggest you do, Send Josh an email telling him to apply GM credit to the Character, send him your PFS number and character number, as example my 1st character would be PFS #-1 or 1619-1. Remember you only will get GM credit fo 2 games if they were different scenarios, if they where the same scenario for both games then you only get GM credit once. After this just update your character to the PF RPG using the rules stated in the society rules and then just update your character profile on this page.
