Can a Pathfinder Society legal for organized play character take a non-adventurer class instead of an adventuring class with a level advancement? It does not say ANYWHERE that Non-adventuring classes are not available for organized play or regular non-pathfinder Society game-play. If they are not available... might I ask why?


I think this might have been a question better asked in the Pathfinder Society forum.

I'm quite positive that they are not allowed and the likely reason is that they are far weaker than the PC classes.

People would roll Commoners or Adepts expecting an exciting adventure only to discover that they are inferior to everybody else around. Much drama would follow.

This. Sometimes I allow a player to take a"level 0" in an NPC class to give a broaden class skills or just to add variety, but it's really more for flavor than power.


Have you guys used a high level commoner (NPC) in some adventure?
