Suffice to say...due to some MAJOR ....fecal matter.. my character died, (This character actually saved to party from a TPK) and I'd like to play him...Again, With the Same name and everything, is it possible just to Wipe his slate clean and start anew? Or is that too hard to Do in PFS? Btw yes he was Lv 1 and died on the Mission that SHOULD HAVE leveled him...ugh I'm gonna have to teir up alot eitherway..

If that character has sessions reported under him/her, you can't really re-use him/her just like that.
What'd I do is create a new character with the same surname (or just a very similar first name) and make him/her the deceased character's brother/sister, vowing revenge on those despicable beings that killed said sibling!

Ok I see.. PFS hates 1st level chars and want themto stay dead.....Im not serious with that but it does seem that way....and No, just no, screw the Brother Revenge thing, I'm just gonna say the first guy killed was a false clone or something but I will play him...It seems like it'd be much easier to be able to play the char rather than..you know...WASTING character space... Are you sure there is no way?
But seriously, Raise dead is..what 5k you dont even get that for10-11 scenarios and thats getting like..max gold and avg PA (assuming t=you haven't spent any )

As far as I know no two characters can have the exact same name.
What you can do is put together a character with the exact same specs and change the spelling of the name and thus start him over with another PFS #.However, you cannot bring the old character back without 5,000 gp or 8/16 PP.

OOOO wait...My char had A first and Last...Can't I just use...one name?
His Name was Hokuto Nakama...so Would i be able to use just one or the other?
Edit: Redacted, seems that Raise Dead is still required for a dead character to be bought back to life
Sorry, I had misread the PFS Field Guide book, seems the Shadow Lodge 3 PP boon only lets a body be retrieved for a raise dead, which still has the 8/16 PP cost
In your case, you'd have to make a newer character; there's nothing that prevents you from using identical stats though. :)

For system registration purposes the name cannot be the same. Thus Hokuto Nakama is already taken, but Hokuto, HNakama, Nakama Hokuto, Hokuto Nakama-san, and many, many other variations are likely open.
If you want to reset your build to the 0 XP, 0 PA, 150 gold in equipment version and play XXXXX-2 there is no reason that you cannot.
Dying at lower level really sucks as there are not a lot of options to get raised. At tier 1-2 even a table of 6 couldn't chip in all the gold they'd earn for the scenario to raise you. Hope this helps you get back on track.

I had a similar experience playing my first Society game at GenCon a couple years ago. On the first scenario with a character with a name I have used for years in home games,he died in a TPK. I was more miffed about 'losing the name' than the character dying. So I rebooted him and made the new character Namex II with mostly them same build. During games I use Namex in every way and report the play as Namex with the ID XXXXX-2.
Hopefully all of the helpful suggestions herein help you find a useable solution for your character.
Happy Gaming!!

Here's a weird question. If a character had 13 pa and 2500 gp would it be possible to use all pa, effectively paying 13/16 of the 5000gp cost in pp then the remaining 2/16 (or 1/8 for those math conciencious individuals) equating to 625 gold to raise dead? Also if that is not able to be done, could one buy the 3pp at 750 each for 2250 gp and cash in all to raise the character? I didn't see anything that says I can't but wanted to know if this was just wishful thinking not to scrap a 6 month character because of a bad dice roll.
Unfortunately, there is no way to split the cost like that. You have three choices to be able to keep your character: have the full amount of PP needed, have the full amount of gold needed, or combine your gold with gold from the other party members to equal 5000.
