a boon is only good for one character....
Odd... I thought I seen somewhere that some older racial boons open up the race for as many characters as one would like to make. I know on the Ifrit boon, it says that it must be applied as the very first cert on the new character. Thanks, Wellsmv.

I know this is a long shot, but does anybody have a Rebuild boon they're not planning on using? I realize it's part of a much more extensive set of boons, and that you had to work your ass off to get it, but also I know some people just sit on them for ages, and I thought I'd check. I'd really like to dust of my L8 paladin for some of Season 5, but he was my first PFS character and he's pretty poorly built--bad level dips, useless feat chain, and I made the mistake of following someone online guide when I selected attributes--and I don't think he's particularly viable in high level scenarios. So I thought I'd ask. :D

Winter GM boon is Undine for those of you out there who are curious. (With the paragon option, just like the Ifrit)
Finally the Undine is out! I'd like one and in return I am willing to run the scenario of your choice for you. It would have to be online obviously but I could probably be talked into DMing a module as well.

Want: The opportunity to try building a character besides one of the core Races
Have: My absolute gratitude if someone would be willing to throw me a bone :)
And for that matter...how exactly do these Boon trades work? It seems like the general offerings are Race Boons, but every so often, I see a couple of Boons that look like some type of permanent increase to X, Y, or Z...
Anyone able to give a special Boon-newbie a bit of a rundown?

Receiving free boons is fast and easy with these eight steps to success:
Then, you cut off your ring finger on the right hand.
Collect the blood into a jar of salt.
Rub the salt into the carved lines of the pentagram with your right hand only while chewing off your left foot.
Cry out the name of all of the Four Horsemen, Demon Lords, and the layers of Hell.
Forge a pact with the first creature to be conjured.
Sign it with a pen made from your severed digit.
They will give you a boon that you shall not soon forget.

Has anyone had issues with not receiving a traded boon from someone? If so what did you do? I did a boon trade and it's been over a month since they received theirs and I'm still waiting for mine. Kinda bummed. :-/ Feel free to PM me your answer\thoughts if you want, didn't really want to bring it to the board but not sure where else to get input.

I've been wondering about this myself. The one trade I've done went very well, but I don't so much trust most people, so I've been kind of paranoid about it.

Yeah I've only done one other trade and it went great, this one...not so much. :( Honestly I didn't expect this to happen and I'm still really confused as to why I haven't received it, been pretty patient and understanding I think. I want to believe they mean to send it but just...haven't? *sigh*

Have you tried contacting them about it?

Yes absolutely, I would not ask on here otherwise. Last reply was Nov 30th indicating they'd send it off, hadn't gone out prior due to unforeseen circumstances. So should of gone off (hopefully) on the 1st. Would be within the U.S., about 4 States.
I think they are away again maybe and I have to wait, not sure. It's possible they sent it off last week or much later than the 1st, kinda hard to tell since they are kinda MIA. As I said I'm still holding out some hope but wanted to see if this kinda thing is in any way common and if so what people may have done in the past.

So I'm guessing this sort of thing like never happens based on people's lack of responses. So not sure what else to do, I don't want to call it out specifically. I see they are back posting which means they should of seen my messages (no response yet). I guess I'll send them another nice message asking for them to mail it if they haven't and get a tracking # so I don't have to keep asking. lol

Party People,
I, too, share the desire to play something beyond the core races. Sadly I have family and work commitments that make PFS my only legitimate role-playing opportunity. The drop-in, drop-out method while maintaining the same character has a great appeal. Additionally, crossing paths with players and characters from missions past is quite enjoyable. It really entrenches my character in the concept of being hand-picked for missions when one or two acquaintances are along for the ride.
I would love to see more diverse racial options. Why devote 60 pages of the APG to races which can't be played, only to include 147 racial substitutions or archetypes which will also never be in PFS? I don't understand how Golarion can have those races, but the society racially profiles for tiefling, aasimar, and human pathfinders. I can't envision full APG altering the campaign world more than Blood of Angels...
Long story short - I would love to get a race boon, and if I ever get one I will use it immediately on a new character. Race doesn't matter, the opportunity to play something unique is very desireable.
