Kickstarter Boon Question

[Felix Gaunt]

Once this boon is "activated" either by rolling or selecting with another player, can it then he assigned to any of your characters or only to the one that you're playing when it's activated?

I'm sorry: which boon is this you are asking about?

[Dario]

The Pathfinder Society Boon that everyone backing over $5 got. Unfortunately, I'm not savy enough with PFS play to answer the question. I assume it would function like any other boon sheet they've given out before.

[Felix Gaunt]

There are different kinds of boons, generally they fall into two categories, those that are specific to the scenario and therefore are applied to only the character playing the scenario, and those that aren't scenario specific so can be applied to any character you have. I just wanted to see which of these this fell into.

Here's the link to the Kickstarter project where this reward was described.

Pathfinder Online: A Fantasy Sandbox MMO

And here's the complete text of the reward description.

Quote:

Pathfinder Society - Pass the time until Pathfinder Online's release in the massively multiplayer OFFLINE Pathfinder Society Organized Play worldwide tabletop RPG campaign! You'll receive a special in-campaign chronicle sheet PDF detailing an unusual one-use magic item called the emerald elixir, stolen from a bizarre pool in the Emerald Spire Superdungeon. When used at an official Pathfinder Society game table, drinking the elixir grants your hero the advanced simple template for the duration of the scenario. Alternately, the elixir can be spiked with experimental agents to trigger a beneficial permanent mutation randomly determined on a huge chart included on the certificate. If more than one player activates an emerald elixir at the same table, all drinkers can choose their preferred mutation from the list rather than roll randomly.

It sounds to me like it can only be used one time, and either applies to a single character for the duration of the scenario, or with additional effort can be permanently applied to that single character.

Yeah I know about the one time use, I was hoping that once the Boon was triggered it could then be applied to any one character you have. Unfortunately that doesn't seem to be the case, it appears it has to be applied to that specific character which alas is quite... problematic. :-/ Oh well.
