Society Pregens - official clarification request

[Dungeonginger]

So, reading up on Sanctioned Adventure Paths and Modules in the Guide 5.0, I discovered today that all of the iconic pregens from NPC Codex are playable in Society Organized Play. But that is only mentioned under Adventure Paths and Modules. Regular character creation mentions only the four download pregens. Can I get a clarification on whether it is possible to use the NPC Codex pregens in regular Organized Play Scenarios or not? I'm asking as a GM as well as a player.

Not only can you, the PFS pregen pack has been updated to include the legal pregens so you don't even need the codex anymore.

See this thread

I think it's important to point out that the official pregens have been updated; there's now fourteen pregens, covering all the core classes, plus the Ultimate Combat classes, at levels one, four, and seven; that's every Iconic in the NPC Codex, plus level four versions, plus the Ninja, Gunslinger, and Samurai.

So... yeah, the NPC Codex is kinda unnecessary now, for PFS purposes, as it doesn't contain anything that you can't get for free.

Ooooo! Fantastic to know, thank you much!

Prepping to run some scenarios I have been pointed toward the NPC Codex for NPC types. Mercenary, Bartender, etc.
