Message: <blockquote data-quote="S'mon" data-source="post: 6163755" data-attributes="member: 463">I absolutely love CCs; I use the rules much more broadly, for many major NPCs, especially allies of the PCs, and I have them at a range of levels. I recently published a bunch on my campaign blog - <a href="http://frloudwater.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">http://frloudwater.blogspot.co.uk/</a> - the PCs are 14th level, the detailed CCs are 8th-13th but it's only <a href="http://frloudwater.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/sir-jorah-blackthorn-steward-of-travys.html" target="_blank">Sir Jorah Blackthorn </a>the 13th level guy who adventures with them. He's very popular and had at least 3 awestruck PCs romantically chasing him, but he seems to have settled for Lirael the competent but shy half-elf Ranger archer over Quinn the floozy Bard or Pealias the (male) Eladrin Ranger. <img src="http://www.enworld.org/forum/images/smilies/laugh.png"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="Laughing    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" />One thing I do with CCs is use them as temp characters for drop-in players; the fully designed ones like Sir Jorah are completely playable as PCs if you let them use Action Points. Other simpler CCs like <a href="http://frloudwater.blogspot.co.uk/2013/07/megana-nistral-loudwater-master-smith.html" target="_blank">Megana Nistral</a> are basically monster-statted but with CC/PC type hit points and healing surges, the stat block just helps them interact with the PCs and gives an idea of their capabilities.Overall, the CC rules work great and I will use them for many characters, long before I'd use the very poor "PC Class NPC" rules in the DMG.</blockquote>
