Playing with additivity conditions in multiplicative functions

Let $f:\mathbb{Z}\to\mathbb{C}$ be a multiplicative function. Assume there exist integers $a>1$ and $d>1$ such that $(a,d)=1$ and let $\mathcal{P}_{a,d}=\{a+kd:k\in\mathbb{Z}\}$. Under mild extra conditions on $d$ and $f(a)$, we prove that $f(n)=nχ(n)$ for all $n$ outside an explicit exceptional set depending on $d$, and some Dirichlet character $χ$.
