[QUOTE="fba827, post: 4846252, member: 807"] My name is fba827, and I too have character ADD. No matter how much i like my current PC, after about 2-3 levels of the same PC, I start thinking about tinkering with other ideas/concepts/etc. (hmm... i hope that's not saying something about me and long term relationships :P ) In my previous game groups, this was not much of a problem because I was almost always a DM and only got to play one-shots here and there. In my current game group, I am more often a player so I am just trying really really really hard to stick with a single PC and control my character add. As for your suggested idea, it sounds feasible. As you said though, the only "hurdle" is the DM liking the idea enough to be able to come up with feasible concepts for you. You'd also have to be careful that it didn't annoy the other players ("why does asmor get to switch all the time? how come i can't do that too?") - so you may want some obvious deficit (such as always a level lower than everyone, or something like that). So rather than calling yourself a "Player", it might be best to have yourself playing under the title of "assistant to the DM" for the purpose of running some of the NPCs. Another option would be something like the same character/body but with multiple personalities or several reincarnated spirits. Though this means keeping the same race/physical description/equipment/stats , just swapping in different classes and personalities.. though that may not always work wonderfully depending on the stats you start with. I have never had the opportunity to try either of these ideas. So everything is all just theoretical. :) [/QUOTE]
