Advice and Rules Questions


So I was reviewing one of my lesser used PFS characters and noticed that it has 3 traits (one combat, one social, one faction). So I thought, why does it have 3? Then I remembered that there are some chronicles that exist that let you give another character (usually new ones) free traits. I started digging through my chronicle sheets and couldn't find anything that did that. The trait in question is Whistleblower, a Liberty's Edge faction trait.

So I'm hoping the collective knowledge of the Pathfinder world can help me out and point me in the right direction. Thanks.


Don't know if this will help, but off the top of my head, the only way to acquire a 3rd trait is to have a drawback. I don't play PFS, so I'm not sure if drawbacks are even legal in those games.

If that's not it, my best advice would be to see if you can reach out to the GM of the game where you played that character.


You possibly had an Extra Trait boon of some sort, whether the generic Extra Trait, or something earned in a scenario such as 5-99. Check your more used characters to see if you had such sheets?

I've been checking their chronicles, to no avail.

But I was hoping to get more scenarios that specifically that give those (like the 5-99 you mentioned) so I could check in a more targeted fashion.


This is the 3rd party advice and rules forum, you'll probably get better responses the PFS or general discussion areas.
