The Silver Mount Collection boon question (Spoilers)


Pathfinder Society

Sovereign Court 2/5

My question is in regards to marrying a Blakros. How exactly does this work? Can I just make up a Blakros son/daughter for myself to marry and roleplay as him/her if we ever pass by my swanky manor in the petal district?

Here is the full text of the boon:

Spoiler:
Friend of the Family: You have not only saved the Blakros Museum, but you have also saved Pendleton Blakros, son of the fabulously well-connected Dhrami Blakros. The family celebrates your accomplishments with a grand dinner held in your honor, introducing you Absalom’s most noteworthy nobles, and granting you a permanent +1 bonus on Diplomacy and Knowledge (nobility) checks made within Absalom. You have also proven yourself clever and resourceful enough to marry or be adopted into the Blakros Family, allowing you to purchase the following Vanity:
Blakros Family Member (20 PP): You are a member of the well-established Blakros noble family, granting you a comfortable townhouse in Absalom’s fashionable Petal or Ivy districts and a small staff of servants to care for it. You gain a +1 bonus on Knowledge (nobility) checks and may use that skill to make Day Job rolls. In addition, while in Absalom, your family connections grant you a +2 circumstance bonus on Bluff, Diplomacy, and Intimidate when dealing with other members of high society.

Wow, that is ridiculously expensive vanity for what it does. I had vaguely heard of this and had considered tracking down a game for it but at 20pp I am hard pressed to think it would actually be worth it.

That's a shame because it is an extremely cool vanity.

Not every vanity is designed for mechanical benefit. It's called a "vanity" for a reason.

I, for one, am immensely proud and grateful to have become a daughter of the illustrious Blakros family.

...even if we do have some... less than pleasant suitors.

(Yep, I bought the vanity on this character. Enjoy the thought of one of the Blakros daughters being a nagaji.)

I was under the impression we were all trying to marry the same woman and that at the start of the new year there be a grand melee in the arena... The winner gets to marry her and the survivors, if any, get an tour of the Blakros Museum with Nigel in Scenario 7-07 Rise of the Great Old Ones, where the Pathfinder Society is forced to burn the Museum down to save Absalom from unpronounceable horrors.

I guess maybe I was mistaken.

The Exchange 5/5

There might have been a brief point in time where I accidently* killed Pendleton**. At the end of the scenario he was alive though and the Blackros family decided that I might just be okay, so I decided to keep what I killed. I now introduce myself as "Nevakali Blackros of the Absalom Blackros', perhaps you've heard of us?" Additionally you can just choose to be adopted by the Blackros family.

To answer the OP's question, you can just make up a Blackros to marry. There aren't really enough pre-existing Blackros' to go around.

*:Nonlethal crit by my barbarian Living Monolith. I felt bad and was going to pay for a raise dead for Pendleton on my own, some of the others decided to pitch in.

**:Heh, I don't actually remember what I was going to put here. I hope Pendleton likes feathers, because Nevakali happens to be a Tengu.
