Rare Ancestries Info (piefed.social)

As we near session zero day my group is asking questions about ancestries. My question to you is regarding rare Ancestries. Not info about the ancestries themselves, but rather the (rare) tag.

I found this info (PC2) about uncommon ancestries and heritages, and rare backgrounds.

But does something like this exist for a rare ancestry? I was hoping the Ancestry Guide would have something.

As a Trait, the description of Rare applies to everything it is attached to, ancestory, spell, item, or other. You can find the full description at https://2e.aonprd.com/Traits.aspx?ID=683 but generally in non-PFS play it just means you should ask the GM before selecting it. In PFS play you will need to purchase a Boon.

Thank you, i looked at that table of terms but missed rarity because I was looking for rare specifically, and in the context of the box with the uncommon i posted.
