If my character gets caught in an AOE ability and is told to save for half succeeds and the total number of damage is uneven do I round up or down? Say for example the damage is 13 does my character takes 6 or 7 points of damage?

Round down.
If dividing uneven damage between two types the attacker decides what to do with the extra point.
Can you tell me where that is in the core rulebook so I can read about it in more detail?

Page 243:
Rounding
Occasionally the rules might ask you to round a result or value.
Unless otherwise stated, always round down. For example, if you are asked to take half of 7, the result would be 3.
And page 169
Weapons that deal multiple types of damage have an ampersand between the types (such as “B & E” for a weapon that deals bludgeoning and electricity damage).
For such weapons, half the damage dealt is one type, and half is the other (if the damage done is an odd number, select one damage type to round up, rounding down the other damage type normally)
Thanks.
