| Campaign Trait | Touched by Divinity (Campaign; Mythic [Hierophant]) | Mythic traits are a bit more powerful than most traits—this is intentional, as these traits help to set up a character's mythic background! Mythic traits are intended for use with Mythic characters. As long as you can remember, you've had an unexplainable interest in one deity in particular. One of your parents might have been a priest of the deity, but even this can't explain your deep connection to the faith. You begin play with a silver holy symbol of your chosen deity for free.

You gain a +1 bonus on Reflex saves. Religious: You found a holy symbol of the god you worship today while on a job for the crimelord and, intrigued by it, you snuck off to attend services. When he found out, he beat you to within an inch of your life and broke your holy symbol. Your faith let you block out the pain, and you escaped his control and took shelter in the church, where you spent the rest of your youth.

| Equipment | Dealmaker | Once per week, when looking for an item with a price greater than the local community’s base value (see page 461 of the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook), make a DC 10 Diplomacy check; add 10 to the DC for each community size category between the current community and the community size with a base value sufficient for that item. Success means (with GM approval) you’re able to sell or purchase that item as if the local community were of sufficient size. Each additional attempt (successful or otherwise) in that community increases the DC by an additional +10. Example: If you’re trying to find a +1 cloak of resistance (1,000 gp), you’d normally need to be in a small town (base value 1,000 gp) or larger to be able to find that item with little trouble. If you’re currently in a hamlet, that’s two community sizes away from a small town, so the Diplomacy DC is 30. If you went to a village and asked there, the DC would only be 20 because it’s only one community size away from a small town. | AAR | ||||||||||||||
| Equipment | Extremely Fashionable | Whenever you are wearing clothing and/or jewelry worth at least 150 gp (and not otherwise covered in gore, sewage, or other things that mar your overall look), you gain a +1 trait bonus on Bluff, Diplomacy, and Intimidate checks.

| Equipment | Heirloom Weapon | When you select this trait, choose one of the following benefits:
|
AAR | ||||||||||||||
| Equipment | Improvisational Equipment | When using an item for anything other than its intended purpose—such as using a crowbar as a grappling hook or an old shirt to bandage a deadly wound—reduce the improvisation penalty by 2. This does not apply to improvised weapon penalties. Your GM may rule that some things are just not suitable for use in certain ways; for example, gluing a dead orc’s face to your own face won’t help you disguise yourself as an orc. | AAR | ||||||||||||||
| Equipment | Power of Suggestion | You may make a Bluff check to make observers believe that an object in your possession is actually a different object entirely. The DC for the check is 20 for items of a similar size, shape, and color (such as a glaive and a quarterstaff). Items of a different shape, size, or color raise the DC by 5 for each dissimilar aspect, or more if the dissimilarity is extreme. This deception lasts 1 minute; if the item is still in view, the observers may recognize their error unless you make another bluff check. | AAR | ||||||||||||||
| Equipment | Prehensile Whip | You can use a whip as if it were a rope with a grappling hook at the end. Attaching your whip is a standard action, but detaching it is a full-round action. | AAR | ||||||||||||||
| Equipment | Quick Learner | After your first attack with a weapon in which you are not proficient, the non-proficiency penalty decreases by 2 (to a –2 penalty). This effect lasts only while you have the weapon in hand; you must “relearn” the weapon each time you pick it up. | AAR | ||||||||||||||
| Equipment | Rough and Ready | When you use a tool of your trade (requiring at least 1 rank in the appropriate Craft or Profession skill) as a weapon, you do not take the improvised weapon penalty and instead receive a +1 trait bonus on your attack. This trait is commonly used with shovels, picks, blacksmith hammers, and other sturdy tools — lutes and brooms make terribly fragile weapons. | AAR | ||||||||||||||
| Equipment | Stage Magic | When you use an attention-getting alchemical item such as a flask of alchemist’s fire, smokestick, thunderstone, or another appropriate alchemical item (GM’s discretion) as part of a performance, you gain a +2 trait bonus on your Perform check for the duration of that performance. The item is expended without its normal effects and only serves to make your performance more impressive; for example, you could pretend to ignite yourself with alchemist’s fire as part of a Perform (comedy) check or make a dramatic appearance with a smokestick as part of a Perform (act) check, but you would not actually take fire damage or gain concealment from smoke. | AAR | ||||||||||||||
| Equipment | Stealthy Escape | When trying to escape manacles, rope, or other similar restraints (but not grapples or similar attacks), you may make a Sleight of Hand check instead of your Escape Artist modifier. If you free yourself, you gain a +2 trait bonus on Bluff checks to pretend that you are still bound. | AAR | ||||||||||||||
| Equipment | Thrown-Together Fashion | With a basic sewing kit or disguise kit, you can make a Disguise check to change one outfit into another outfit. The DC of this check is equal to 10 + the gp difference between costs of the outfits. The alteration takes 10 minutes per 1-gp difference in the cost of the outfits. | AAR | ||||||||||||||
| Equipment | Well-Provisioned Adventurer | You always knew you'd leave your humble beginnings behind and become an adventurer, so you scrimped and saved, buying the necessary equipment one piece at a time until you had everything you needed. Select one of the equipment packages below. If you select this trait during character creation, you do not receive any starting gold. This is an Equipment trait, a category of trait (like Combat, Magic, or Social). Alternatively, a PC can purchase an equipment package for 1,000 gp, or she might receive an equipment package as a reward from a wealthy NPC in exchange for a valuable service. This trait allows a PC to select one of the following equipment packages instead of spending starting gold. Arcane Adept Package The arcane adept has collected useful magical gear to ensure her success on her adventures, and she prides herself on having just the right tool for the job. This equipment package is appropriate for an arcanist, sorcerer, witch, or wizard. Some bards and summoners might also find it attractive. This equipment package can also work for a magus if the 1st-level scrolls and wand are replaced with a masterwork melee weapon. Weapons : Light crossbow with 10 bolts, quarterstaff. Combat Gear : Acid (2), scrolls of comprehend languages (2), scroll of detect secret doors, scroll of glitterdust, scrolls of identify (2), scroll of mount, scroll of rope trick, thunderstone, wand of mage armor (16 charges).
