I don't believe that actual Boons can be applied to CFEs as of yet. I tried searching this Forum, the Blog, and the FAQ, and couldn't come up with anything. If there was a ruling, and I've just missed it, feel free to link it below.
Barring that, I wanted to pick up the discussion again. This desire was spurned during my most recent game session. My overweight owlbear "Waffles" wears a Merciful Amulet of Mighty Fists (because she couldn't hurt a fly). Looking down at my Silver Crusade Faction Journal Card, I noticed that the first Boon added (something to the effect of) +1 nonlethal damage.
None of us could remember at the time what the current ruling was, so we gamed on without applying the Boon to her. But it started that inevitable "What if?" sort of conversation.
What sort of weird, overpowered, or questionable CFE/Boon combinations can you think of? Maybe we can help John pin down a final ruling, even if it's just a "No".

Perhaps the most on point ruling was made by John Compton.
your familiar, animal companion, or eidolon is not a member of your faction mechanically.

A Nagaji pops in, "Waffles may not get faction card benefits, but she always gets the friend discount at the Interplanar House of Waffles!
He pulls out a business card, slightly sticky with maple syrup, listing their locations.
On a more on-topic note, it does make sense to me to allow Prestige purchases for companions, but not faction cards. Chronicle boons seem like more of a grey area. Maybe going forward boons can explicitly call out companions if they're allowed to benefit, but that doesn't solve all the existing chronicles.

Cool. Thank you for that.
