Drawbacks

Basic (Faith) Traits

Abject Belief [Link] Source Faiths and Philosophies pg. 0 You cling tenaciously to a faith that is doubted by many, perhaps based around a god who has vanished, or was never a god in the first place. You refuse to forsake your beliefs despite all evidence, perhaps due to a need to belong, respect for tradition, or a religious experience. As a result, it is nearly impossible to convince you of your deity’s absence. You gain a +2 trait bonus on Will saving throws against fear effects.
Acclimatize Alignment [Link] Source Plane-Hopper's Handbook pg. 3 Like a climber ascending a mountain, you gradually grow acclimatized to an opposing planar alignment. For each consecutive day you remain on a mildly aligned plane that opposes your alignment, reduce your penalty on Charisma-based checks by 1, to a minimum of 0. This does not affect the penalty from a strongly aligned plane.
Acolyte of Apocrypha [Link] Source Divine Anthology pg. 22 Your religious studies hinged on teachings rarely recognized by your faith. You can select one of the apocryphal subdomains detailed below, provided the subdomain is associated with your patron deity. In some cases, you can select a subdomain associated with a deity despite that deity not offering the associated domain—these exceptions are noted with an asterisk (), and you gain domain powers and domain spells from the associated domain as usual, even though your deity normally doesn’t grant access to that domain. When selecting a subdomain associated with two domains, a priest can choose only a subdomain that modifies a domain to which he has access. All deities referenced in the following subdomains appear in Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Inner Sea Gods* or Pathfinder Campaign Setting: Dragon Empires Gazetteer Alchemy (Artifice/Magic) Brigh, Haagenti, Norgorber* (Artifice only), Orgesh* (Magic only), Qi Zhong) Captivation Calistria, Kofusachi, Nalinivati, Norgorber, Shelyn Hubris (Glory/Nobility) Dispater, General Susumu, Iomedae, Jaidz, Lissala, Olheon, Ydersius Insect Achaekek, Aldinach, Deskari, Ghlaunder, Kitumu, Mazmezz Legend General Susumu, Gorum, Shizuru Lightning Gozreh, Hei Feng, Rovagug, Rull Medicine Dalenydra, Immonhiel, Irori, Korada, Qi Zhong, Sarenrae Monsoon Daikitsu, Gozreh, Hei Feng, Rull Petrification Ayrzul, Minderhal, Soralyon, Xoveron Portal Abadar, Alseta*, Barbatos, Yog-Sothoth Rites Abraxas, Asmodeus, Nalinivati, Nethys, Nyarlathotep, Sivanah Self-Realization (Liberation/Strength) Arshea, Falayna, Haagenti, Irori, Kurgess, Shei, Urgathoa Thirst Aldinach, Lalaci, Nurgal, Sarenrae Thorns The Green Mother, Shub-Niggurath, Zyphus Truth Groetus, Lamashtu, Sifkesh, Sivanah
Apprentice [Link] Source Divine Anthology pg. 9 During your studies of The Majestic Book of the Prime Ascended, you learned some minor magical tricks. Select a single 0-level spell from the sorcerer/ wizard spell list. You can cast this spell 1 time per day as a spell-like ability.
Arcane Scholar [Link] Source Divine Anthology pg. 9 Study of the “Prime Archmage” chapter has broadened your magical knowledge. Choose either Knowledge (arcana) or Spellcraft; you gain a +1 trait bonus on that skill and it is a class skill for you.
Aspect of the Quah [Link] Source Disciple's Doctrine pg. 25 You call upon your quah’s totem to grant you power. You gain a unique totem aspect that replaces one of the animal aspects granted to you by the animal focus feature. You must be a hunter or have access to the animal aspect class feature to select this trait, and you must choose the Shoanti quah to which you belong. You gain access to the totem aspect listed for that clan, and you lose access to the animal aspect listed. Once made, this choice cannot be changed.

Blessed Touch [Link] Source Champions of Purity pg. 7 You may have been raised in a devout family, studied the divine in a formal church environment, or even learned how to combine traditional healing techniques with those of divine casters. In so doing, you have focused yourself into being the perfect vessel for your deity. Divine power flows through you like a mountain stream, making your healing touch more potent than that of others. You heal 1 additional point of damage when using lay on hands, channeling energy, or casting a cure spell.
Born Free [Link] Source Faiths and Philosophies pg. 0 You were introduced to an individualistic belief as a youth. Thriving under the promise of control of your own destiny, you soon began to demonstrate the truth of this ideal. Though others may mock you for your unwillingness to go along with a group or accept the easy security and comfort promised by more ecclesiastical faiths, you know that the revelations and destiny you seek can only be brought about through your own actions and individual search for meaning. Once per day, after you roll a saving throw against a compulsion effect, you can choose to roll again as an immediate action before the result of the saving throw is announced. You must keep the new roll, even if it is worse.
Bound by Honor [Link] Source Faiths and Philosophies pg. 0 Your code of honor, obligations, and taboos stem from the shame of a misspent youth. Now, a personal code reminds you how to live, and you have an impressive ability to resist temptation.

Called [Link] Source Quests and Campaigns pg. 18 Your deity or a powerful spirit spoke to you when you were young, dropping cryptic hints about the important destiny that lay before you and how you must win your fights if you are to achieve your predetermined greatness. Once per day upon rolling a natural 1 on an attack roll, you may reroll the die and take the second result instead. Suggested Characters: Oracles, paladins, Ulfen.
Canon of Coin [Link] Source Merchant's Manifest pg. 2 You find the pursuit of earning money to be a religious experience. Appraise is a class skill for you. So long as you are carrying coins worth an amount equal to at least 100 gp per character level you have, you gain a +1 trait bonus on Will saves. This bonus increases to +2 against effects that would force you to discard, drop, or give away coins, gems, or trade goods in your possession.
Caretaker [Link] Source Ultimate Campaign pg. 54, Advanced Player's Guide pg. 328, Second Darkness Player's Guide pg. 12 As the child of an herbalist or an assistant in a temple infirmary, you often had to assist in tending to the sick and wounded.

Child of the Temple [Link] Source Ultimate Campaign pg. 54, Second Darkness Player's Guide pg. 12, Advanced Player's Guide pg. 328 You have long served at a temple in a city, where you picked up on many of the nobility’s customs in addition to spending much time in the temple libraries studying your faith.

Chosen of Iomedae [Link] Source Champions of Purity pg. 13 At your birth, your parents dedicated your soul to Iomedae to mold into a sword of her light. The goddess blessed you, granting you a gift of light to brighten your path through darkness and a fine sword with which to spread her will. You may cast light once per day as a spell-like ability (caster level 1st), and you begin play with a masterwork longsword. In addition, whenever light is cast upon this sword, the radius of light and its duration is doubled.
Covert Channeler [Link] Source Black Markets pg. 9 Your mentor in the Wagons of Light taught you to hide holy symbols quickly. You can draw or stow a holy symbol as a swift action.
Crisis of Faith [Link] Source Faiths and Philosophies pg. 0 You were raised to uphold a specific set of tenets, and you never had reason to doubt their veracity. Recent events, however, have undermined that certainty, and you now find yourself wondering if any of the universal truths you once believed in can actually hold up to scrutiny. Perhaps you witnessed a mentor or church official fall from grace or violate your shared tenets. Maybe you watched a friend injured terribly despite (or because of ) her pure faith. Whatever the case, your shaken confidence grants you a +1 trait bonus on saving throws against illusions. You may replace any other faith trait with the Crisis of Faith trait whenever you gain a level. This replacement is permanent until you receive atonement.
Crusader [Link] Source Divine Anthology pg. 9 From studying “Prime Commander” and reading accounts of the battles in the Worldwound, you have trained to be a crusader against demonic forces. You gain a +1 trait bonus on attack rolls against outsiders with the chaotic subtype.
Darkest Before Dawn [Link] Source Divine Anthology pg. 11 Your devotion sustains you when others would fall to despair.

Once per day, you can increase this bonus to +4 for a single save, but you must make this decision before you attempt the saving throw.
Deep Faith [Link] Source Heroes of the Darklands pg. 7 Your deity was born of the depths, and you’re a child of such realms. Whenever you cast a spell granted by the earth domain (or associated subdomains) while in the Darklands, that spell functions at 1 caster level higher than your actual caster level.
Defy Madness [Link] Source Faction Guide pg. 62 Requirement(s) Old Cults Your direct involvement with supernatural and alien forces has left you less vulnerable to the insanity they cause. You gain a +1 trait bonus on any saving throws against confusion, insanity, madness, and Wisdom damage and drain.
Devoted Healer [Link] Source Quests and Campaigns pg. 18 Raised in the company of skilled healers, you were always encouraged to devote your time and energy to the welfare of others.

Devotee of the Green [Link] Source Ultimate Campaign pg. 54, Advanced Player's Guide pg. 328, Second Darkness Player's Guide pg. 12 Your faith in the natural world or one of the gods of nature makes it easy for you to pick up on related concepts. You gain a +1 trait bonus on Knowledge (geography) and Knowledge (nature) checks, and one of these skills (your choice) is always a class skill for you.
Devout Visionary [Link] Source Faiths and Philosophies pg. 0 As a child, you had a strange vision while suffering from a terrible illness, and only found your way back to the mundane world by following the call of a spiritual leader—perhaps a shaman’s drum or a druid’s lilting poetry. Since then, you have studied symbolism and dreams in the hope that you might understand your own vision, though your lessons prove just as helpful to others. You gain a +1 trait bonus on Will saving throws against spells and effects that grant the confused or dazed condition. Once per day as a full-round action, you may grant an adjacent ally a new Will saving throw to end an effect that grants the confused or dazed condition.
Disdainful Defender [Link] Source Ultimate Campaign pg. 54 You are resistant to the magic of other faiths. You gain a +2 trait bonus on all Will saves you attempt against divine spells. This bonus does not apply against divine spells cast by a caster who worships the same deity you do.
Divine Confidante [Link] Source Spymaster's Handbook pg. 6 You were inspired with the reverence offered by worshipers to priests and other spiritual leaders, so you assisted them.

Sense Motive is a class skill for you.
Divine Denier [Link] Source Faiths and Philosophies pg. 0 You can’t bring yourself to accept the authority of the gods, even though friends might hound you relentlessly to change your ways. Perhaps you’re a Rahadoumi objecting on ideological grounds, or perhaps you just want to be left alone. Your doubt causes you to shrug off divine magic more quickly than others. Once per day when you are affected by a divine spell, you may reduce that spell’s duration to half (minimum 1 round) for you alone.
Dogged [Link] Source Disciple's Doctrine pg. 3 Drawing inspiration from the Cult of the Failed, you refuse to let setbacks stop you, no matter how disastrous.

Empyreal Pantheon [Link] Source Distant Shores pg. 23 Your faith in the empyreal lords accommodates numerous gods, and you are gifted at adapting their wide variety of focuses and lessons to your own life. Select either the law or chaos alignment descriptor. You may cast spells with that descriptor, even if your alignment or that of your god would normally not allow it. Doing so applies the good descriptor to the spell if it does not already apply.
Exalted of the Society [Link] Source Shattered Star Player's Guide pg. 5, Faction Guide pg. 62 Requirement(s) Cleric, Pathfinder Society The vaults of the Grand Lodge in Absalom contain many secrets of the divine powers of the gods, and you have studied your deity extensively.

First Memories [Link] Source Gnomes of Golarion pg. 14 Requirement(s) Gnome For your whole life, you’ve felt there was a world just beyond the fabric of the material objects around you, and sometimes you can hear the north wind calling you or smell the dread taint of polluted water before you taste it. You do not gain the normal list of spell-like abilities for the gnome magic racial trait presented in the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook. Instead, if you have a Wisdom of 11 of higher, you gain the following spell-like abilities: 1/day—detect poison, know direction, stabilize, and speak with animals. The caster level for these effects is equal to your character level. The DC for these spells is equal to 10 + the spell’s level + your Wisdom modifier.

Heretic's Caution [Link] Source Disciple's Doctrine pg. 3 You were raised in a faith that did not center on a traditional god or that followed a heretical interpretation of a traditional deity.

History of Heresy [Link] Source Ultimate Campaign pg. 55, Advanced Player's Guide pg. 328, Second Darkness Player's Guide pg. 12 You were raised with heretical views that have made it difficult for you to accept most religious beliefs and often caused you or those you love to be treated as pariahs. As a result, you have turned your back on religious teachings. As long as you do not possess any levels in a class that grants divine spellcasting power, you gain a +1 trait bonus on all saving throws against divine spells.

Indomitable Faith [Link] Source Ultimate Campaign pg. 55, Second Darkness Player's Guide pg. 12, Advanced Player's Guide pg. 328 You were born in a region where your faith was not popular, but you still have never abandoned it.

Irreverent [Link] Source Antihero's Handbook pg. 7 You are suspicious of those who lead spiritual lives and are quick to seek out the smallest hypocrisy in even the most pious individuals.

You gain a +2 trait bonus on saving throws against divine spells that target only you.
Kalistocratic Prophecy [Link] Source Spymaster's Handbook pg. 6 You were raised under the Prophecies of Kalistrade, and were inspired to seize upon an untapped business opportunity. Up to once per week, when you work to advance this opportunity with at least 1 day of effort, you can attempt an appropriate Profession check to earn money or gain capital using the downtime rules (Ultimate Campaign 76) with a +2 trait bonus.

Light in the Darkness [Link] Source Heroes of the Darklands pg. 7 You’re destined to bring light to the darkness and expunge the faithless from the deep.

Loyalty across Lifetimes [Link] Source Ultimate Campaign pg. 55 You and your eidolon share a link that seems to span multiple lifetimes. Your eidolon treats its Constitution score as if it were 2 points higher for the purposes of determining when its negative hit point total sends it back to its home plane. In addition, your eidolon gains a +1 trait bonus on Will saves against enchantment spells and effects.
Martial Manuscript [Link] Source Ultimate Campaign pg. 55 You either carry or have memorized a sacred text from your school, temple, or monastery, and its wisdom gives you insight that makes your attacks more devastating.

Meditative Rest [Link] Source Divine Anthology pg. 10 When you rest, you ignore the first time you are interrupted during that rest for the purposes of determining how long you need to rest in full to regain the capacity to regain spells, provided the interruption lasts no more than 15 minutes. If you cast spells during this interruption, you don’t count these against your daily limit of spells when you wake and prepare spells.
Monastic [Link] Source Faiths and Philosophies pg. 0 Either your parents sent you to be raised in a monastery, or you traveled there yourself later in life in order to escape the conflict and distractions of the greater world. There you learned to eschew the material concerns that plague so many and cloud their minds, instead embracing an ascetic lifestyle. You readily let go and step away from trouble, free from any tie or baggage that might slow your path to enlightenment—figuratively or literally. Once per day as a swift action, you gain a +1 trait bonus to Armor Class as long as you are wearing no armor, not using a shield, carrying a light load, and have nothing in your hands. This bonus lasts for 1 minute.
Mystery Initiate [Link] Source Quests and Campaigns pg. 19 You were initiated into a mystery cult in your youth, and learned secrets that turned your understanding of your faith and the world on its head. This experience has given you a knack for lateral thinking. Once per day, you may reroll any Knowledge skill check. You must decide to use this ability after the first roll is made but before the results are revealed. You must take the second result, even if it is worse. Suggested Characters: Mystery cultists, Nethys worshipers, Norgorber worshipers.
Natural Ritualist [Link] Source Disciple's Doctrine pg. 3 You venerate nature, either by paying homage to your Shoanti totem spirit or by appeasing the kami around you in accordance with Tamashigo. In return, the spirits bless your path. Once per week, you can build a small shrine of natural materials and pay your respects in a ritual that takes 15 minutes.

Nature Worshiper [Link] Source Faiths and Philosophies pg. 0 When you were young, you saw a dead creature’s body fertilize a field.

Pact Servant [Link] Source Distant Shores pg. 23 The faith of Holomog focuses on finding the good in unusual places and appreciating the nuances of virtue in the world.

You may not select the evil domain unless your own alignment also contains an evil aspect.
Patient Calm [Link] Source Quests and Campaigns pg. 19 As a child, you struggled to suppress a sharp temper, but the care and patient respect of a trusted community leader rubbed off on you. As you grew older, you developed a remarkable ability to keep calm and collected when performing a task you are familiar with. Choose one Craft or Profession skill.

You can use your Wisdom modifier in place of your Charisma modifier on Diplomacy checks to ask favors or gain influence (Ultimate Intrigue 102).

Planar Savant [Link] Source Ultimate Campaign pg. 55 You have always had an innate sense of the workings of the planes and their denizens. You may use your Charisma modifier when making Knowledge (planes) checks instead of your Intelligence modifier.
Priest-Blessed [Link] Source Faiths and Philosophies pg. 33 You were guided to maturity by a trusted priest of an ecclesiastical tradition, who inspired you and made you understand that the authority exerted by a religious hierarchy is a blessing rather than a restriction, allowing the faithful to always feel confident in their direction and the righteousness of the guided actions. Now, your faith wells up whenever you are aided by divine magic, and you find it easy to open up to the magic and succor of any faith, seeing the similarities between all such traditions. Three times per day when you are the target of a harmless divine spell, you may increase its caster level by 1 for purposes of its effect on you alone.
Principled [Link] Source Ultimate Campaign pg. 55 You hold yourself to a strict code of behavior that guides all of your decisions and actions. You take a –2 penalty on Bluff checks and gain a +2 trait bonus on saving throws against charm, compulsion, and emotion effects.

Rebuke the Curse [Link] Source Blood of the Coven pg. 3 Once per day, you can attempt to suppress the effects of a curse on a single creature with a touch. This functions as a remove curse spell, treating your character level as your caster level. If you succeed at your caster level check against the curse, the curse’s effects are negated for 1 minute. This trait does not allow a person burdened with a cursed item to remove or discard it. Use of this trait is a supernatural ability.
Redeemer [Link] Source Champions of Purity pg. 9 You’ve always held the strong belief that morality is everyone’s choice, and that those who act in wicked ways have simply never been shown how their actions truly affect others. If they could be shown their errors, then they would accept a more positive course of action—and you have just enough patience to see this through. When acting as a sponsor for an evil creature seeking redemption (see page 18), your patience and kindness grant the creature a +3 bonus on its save rather than a +1 bonus.
Reincarnated [Link] Source Ultimate Campaign pg. 55 You lived a previous life as someone—or something— else. For you, life and death are a cycle, and you have no fear of death. You gain a +2 trait bonus on saving throws against fear and death effects.
Religious Reformer [Link] Source Faiths and Philosophies pg. 33 You have spent many years studying the tenets of your faith, and now believe that the dominant factions within the church have deviated from its true meaning and purpose. Rather than breaking with your misguided church, you’ve decided to stand up and fight to reform the organization you love. You have fervently studied scripture and steeled your will to combat the divergent beliefs of your peers.

Choose a domain granted by an evil aligned deity, such as an archdevil, demon lord, or Great Old One. You gain a +1 trait bonus to your caster level when casting spells that are granted by that domain. This doesn’t grant you the ability to cast such spells—you must still have access to the spells through some other means.

Wendifa Apprentice [Link] Source Faiths and Philosophies pg. 33 For a time during your childhood, you were left in the care of a juju oracle or wendifa, who saw your potential and taught you simple juju magic to influence the weakminded for brief periods of time.

You gain a +1 trait bonus on Knowledge (religion) checks, and that skill is a class skill for you. As long as you remain completely faithful to the tenets of your faith (as determined by the GM), you never suffer from the Bleaching.
Zealot's Bearing [Link] Source Faiths and Philosophies pg. 33 Your fiery passion for your faith or philosophy is obvious to everyone around you. Those who share your convictions automatically find themselves wanting to defer to your zealous authority, making you a natural leader of your faith. Unfortunately, your scorn for those who haven’t yet seen the wisdom of converting is equally obvious, and makes you a poor ambassador or missionary to the “ignorant masses” (as you notso- secretly think of them). You gain a +2 bonus on Diplomacy and Intimidate checks when dealing with adherents of your faith or philosophy, but a –1 penalty on Diplomacy and Intimidate checks when dealing with anyone else.

Acclimatize Alignment [Link]

Source Plane-Hopper's Handbook pg. 3
Like a climber ascending a mountain, you gradually grow acclimatized to an opposing planar alignment.

This does not affect the penalty from a strongly aligned plane.

Acolyte of Apocrypha [Link]

Source Divine Anthology pg. 22
Your religious studies hinged on teachings rarely recognized by your faith. You can select one of the apocryphal subdomains detailed below, provided the subdomain is associated with your patron deity. In some cases, you can select a subdomain associated with a deity despite that deity not offering the associated domain—these exceptions are noted with an asterisk (*), and you gain domain powers and domain spells from the associated domain as usual, even though your deity normally doesn’t grant access to that domain. When selecting a subdomain associated with two domains, a priest can choose only a subdomain that modifies a domain to which he has access.

You heal 1 additional point of damage when using lay on hands, channeling energy, or casting a cure spell.

Born Free [Link]

Source Faiths and Philosophies pg. 0
You were introduced to an individualistic belief as a youth. Thriving under the promise of control of your own destiny, you soon began to demonstrate the truth of this ideal.
