Do you have to have a Faction?

That choice may turn off a lot of people but allowing non-faction players would turn off a lot more.

To anyone who wants to play a PC who is without faction: please, for the love of whatever God I pray to: do it and do it well. Choose one for paperwork reasons, but never ever act on it nor read missions: play your character as you would and enjoy the game.

Take the faction mission and put it aside, never read. Tear it up. Eat it. Just smile and go with it. Then roleplay the heck out of your character and have a good time.

If other players have issues with it, that's their problem, not yours. They are acting selfishly and foolishly.

To any GM/local coordinator who has players who choose to play without factions: if you're not as welcoming and understanding of that play choice as you are every other viable concept, you're probably playing wrong and doing a dis-service to the community.

PFS can accommodate a variety of playstyles...and 'factionless' is a fair choice.

I promised MYself I would stay out of this one. I let Painlord fight the good fight, and he did an excellent job. For the record, we have an entire party going factionless here. We have another party that only plays together, all of the same faction, so we don't have to bother with the missions.

Our factionless party plays exactly as Painlord has described. (We promise not to tear up your handouts.) It is interesting to actually care about scenario chronicle item access!

Thanks Pain.

Thanks pointing that out, Kyle. Of course you shouldn't tear up valuable or important documents.

Then again, I still recommend eating them, however, they are valuable source of needed roughage and inks.

Yes Pain... sit at my table and eat one of my hand-outs. I'm sure the rest of the table would love to witness what happens next.

Hmmm... what colours does Painlord cycle through before the frothing stops??
