[QUOTE="ShadeMoon64, post: 2314753, member: 20501"] Thanks for all the input. A few points of clarification as to my particular situation: 1) The sub ran 3 sessions not just a single night. 2) There are no copies of the characters at their old levels changes are made on the original sheets. 3) The "side trek" was presented to me before hand as elements from the old [I]Keep on the Borderlands[/I] module. The sub "tweaked it a bit to fit the current campaign" after I had left town. 4) The other players were lead to believe that the rapid advancement was planned to get them ready for a major challenge I had planned when I returned. For now that group of characters in on hiatus until I can work out the exact means of repair. Exhausting the charges of most of the items or degradation now that the items are away from the location in which they were discovered (like the old drow items exposed to sunlight ploy) seem the most effective way of maintaining some sort of in game logic. A large portion of the gold will be spent fixing the con drain and petrified mage. As for the rapid rise in level, I will probably have to rewrite my new story arc to fit 10th level characters. As to what may happen to the sub's character .... let's just say it will be less than wonderful. :] [/QUOTE]
