PFS1 - GMs attaching chronicle sheets to their characters

[Markuus Brightsteel]

The last version of the 1e PFS Role Playing Guide just says that GMs "any GM who runs a scenario gets full credit for that scenario to apply to one of her own characters".

Mechanically, how does this work, if the GM has already played (as a player) that Scenario? Or if they've already GM'ed that scenario?

Example 1: I've been to a PFS event and enjoyed {scenarioFoo}. At our "home PFS environment", I GM my friends through {scenarioFoo}. Can I apply {scenarioFoo} to a second character (ie, the character I use for our home-game rotation, so that it stays at the same level as the rest of the group)?

Example 2: A GM has five PFS characters that they use when not GMing. They spend a weekend, say, GMing {scenarioBar} four different times. Do they get a chronicle sheet from each of those GMing runs that they can apply to one of their five characters? (Obviously never twice to the same character, and obviously in this case, one character is potentially left going without).

To answer your questions and a bit more:
- For any single scenario you can have one chronicle as a player and one as a GM
- You get a chronicle only for the first time that you GM a scenario, unless the scenario is an evergreen/ repeatable
- You can never have multiple chronicles of the same adventure on the same character regardless of how you received the chronicle
- You can use Replays to replay and get a chronicle for a scenario multiple times as a player but not as a GM

OK, that's fine. Mostly I was curious about Example 1 because it's the situation I was personally finding myself in. As I mentioned in a different thread, we've started running a PFS1 campaign as our "home campaign", and I wanted to make sure that -- if I run a session of something I've previously played -- that I wouldn't have my "home campaign alt" lagging behind because it wouldn't get credit.

Thanks!

That is not true.

You can only get a chronicle sheet once for GMing a non repeatable, but it doesn't have to be the first time you GM it.

Fair, though in most cases people will likely do the first time they run :)
