Pathfinder Society and Zon-Kuthon's Flensing

[GhostwheelX]

Is there any way for a Lawful Neutral character to take Zon-Kuthon's Flensing in Pathfinder Society? The feat requires you to be Evil, which PFS characters cannot be; are there any abilities, feats, or items that allow you to qualify as Evil for the purpose of prerequisites despite not being evil?

Nope.

(More generally, getting around the alignment requirements of feats, etc. is a mythic ability, so it'd be really unlikely to show up in regular Pathfinder. If it did, PFS wouldn't allow it because it'd give PCs access to stuff that reasonably couldn't use regularly without shifting to evil.)

If you're a cleric, inquisitor or war priest of Zon Kuthon you can give up your first level domain power for it without needing to qualify for the feat.

Really? Where did you find that?

It's in the weapon masters handbook Divine Fighting Techniques in the third paragraph.

As I recall, official word is that it's totally fine to have an evil deity and get their bonuses, as long as you skip the parts of their rituals that sound too evil. Even if those evil parts are normally mandatory, they're skippable in PFS. So taking the flensing ability shouldn't be a problem.

That's for Obediences, which have those ignore Evil work arounds, not for Divine Fighting Styles. But the DFS does have the Cleric, Inquisitor, or Warpriest work around as mentioned above.
