Ex-Scions

A scion who selected the modifier(s) to have a benefactor, belong to a code of conduct, or have a specific alignment who grossly violates their code of conduct or their benefactor's obediences loses all spells and class features (including the service of an animal companion, eidolon, familiar or mount, etc), except for armor and shield proficiencies and weapon proficiencies. They cannot thereafter gain levels as a scion until they atone for their deeds (see the atonement spell description).

Favored Class Bonuses

Instead of receiving an additional skill rank or hit point whenever they gain a level in a favored class, some races have the option of choosing from a number of other bonuses, depending upon their favored classes. Scions may instead choose a single of the other core or base classes to gain favored class benefits from, if desired.

Archetypes and Alternate Class Features

When a character selects a class, they must normally choose to use the standard class features found or those listed in one of the archetypes presented here. Each alternate class feature replaces a specific class feature from its parent class. For example, the elemental fist class feature of the monk of the four winds replaces the stunning fist class feature of the monk. When an archetype includes multiple class features, a character must take all of them—often blocking the character from ever gaining certain familiar class features, but replacing them with equally powerful options. All of the other class features found in the core class and not mentioned among the alternate class features remain unchanged and are acquired normally when the character reaches the appropriate level (unless noted otherwise). A character who takes an alternate class feature does not count as having the class feature that was replaced when meeting any requirements or prerequisites. In the scion's case, archetypes can be chosen only if they meet all class features prerequisites (including replaced features).

A character can take more than one archetype and garner additional alternate class features, but none of the alternate class features can replace or alter the same class feature from the core class as another alternate class feature. For example, a paladin could not be both a hospitaler and an undead scourge since they both modify the smite evil class feature and both replace the aura of justice class feature. A paladin could, however, be both an undead scourge and a warrior of the holy light, since none of their new class features replace the same core class feature.

Archetypes are a quick and easy way to specialize characters of a given class, adding fun and flavorful new abilities to already established adventurers. Characters may take more than one archetype if they meet the requirements. Players should speak with their GMs if they should instead wish to replace certain class features with others not included within the scion's options.

Scions and Multiclassing

Much like other classes, class features gained by scions do not stack with class features gained from other classes. For example, a scion who selects the channel energy feature will not have the feature stack with a channel energy class feature gained from another class such as cleric or paladin. Each instance of these features are counted separately.
