2/5

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.

Try 5-99 Paths We Choose.

There was also a Convention Boon that just straight up gave you a bonus Trait. I think it was literally called "Extra Trait".

There was also a feat that let you pick extra traits.

Pirate Rob likely has the right answer.

Other possibilities, assuming that it isn't the faction trait but rather one of the others that is the "extra" trait:

Be sure to check your other characters; the specifics of those chronicles allowed you to give a faction trait to a new character, instead of/in place of the one who played the scenario. You probably just forgot to include a copy of the chronicle with the new character.

True, though it has been many years since it was part of a convention support package. You might be hard-pressed to find any, unless you are an organizer from way back.

That's the point, though, right? That this is an old character?

This was it. Thanks for the help. Both here and GM Shared Prep.

@TwilightKnight and Nefreet: It's a new character with an old bonus. I played "The Paths We Choose" almost 6 years ago. I just never used that part of the chronicle until (apparently) I made this other character.

Also, it's a total my bad for not following the instructions and "providing a copy of this chronicle" as per the instructions.
