Message: <blockquote data-quote="Felix" data-source="post: 3366783" data-attributes="member: 3929">If he just recently became Captain of the Guard and a leader of men, then why would his previous experiences reflect any ability to lead at all?He's 10th level. Take 2 levels of Marshall at 11th and 12th, and Leadership at 12th. Have him work for it.I never did really agree with the PHBII's "Retraining" focus. I felt that while characters may develop and change their attitudes, they will always have those skillsets that they choose not to use anymore. He chooses not to Move Silently or Sneak Attack? This becomes meaningful only if he is still able to do it. If he has the ability but abstains from it, then it is poignant. If he no longer has the ability, then not using it doesn't matter.Or he can use those Rogue abilities to color what kind of Captain he is. He moves so quietly, his men never know when he may be standing right behind them. He feints so well that none dare to spar with him. Those qualities may not define him anymore, but they color his background and color the choices he makes as a leader.If this job represents a change, then let him change: but from now on. His job now doesn't mean he wasn't rogue-y 5 levels ago.</blockquote>
