[QUOTE="N'raac, post: 6725602, member: 6681948"] Is it possible his character SW is set on "Pathfinder"? Pathfinder made the even numbers the point breaks. But then, it also changed the pricing overall. Or 5 levels of Rogue effectively; L1 is 4 levels of skill points) = 5x8 = 40. 7 levels of SS x 2 = 14. So that's 54 9 levels + 3 more for 1st level (wasn't he supposed to be 8th level?) x 2 for INT + 1 for Human = 12 x 3 = 36 more. 54 + 36 = 90 Sounds like his math drags behind his writing. You mean like all melee attacks use the same to-hit so Focus in one gives you plus 1 to all to hit rolls in melee? Are you sure he's operating at a 6th grade level? I'd ban that character sheet generator as it is clearly buggy and require he use one that other players successfully bring in legal characters with. Actually, I'd resolve this some what simpler. You can only have one PC at any given time (call a vote - no one will oppose that, I suspect). So, while PC 1 is your character, she gives all her wealth to PC 2 (presently an NPC). In his rapture over the return of his sister from the clutches of the grave, the NPC falls to his knees, praising whatever Deity links to Sister's return and offering all of his wealth (now including all of her wealth) as a sacrifice to the Deity's greatness. All of the items vanish in a fashion most suitable to the Deity in question. Why, it's a MIRACLE! Now he can convert from PC 1 and NPC 2 to PC 2 and NPC 1. But neither one has any wealth, equipment, etc. any more. Or maybe the merciful Deity accepts only a portion of this offering (about the amount needed to put him back to appropriate wealth comparable with the rest of the PC's/his level/whatever) and an admonition to "Go forth and be a shining example of DEITY'S power and grace". Since he's found religion, he'd better stick to it - deities are fussy about that sort of thing. Weren't they supposed to cost 34? Seems like the SW is flawed. That - leaving your possessions to a new PC which explains where his wealth came from is fine. Leaving them to the new PC does not mean the PC gets his own WBL plus the inheritance. So how did she prepare a will before her death leaving her wealth to a brother she forgot about until after her death? YAY! Nothing prevents PC being told of the vote, which is being held by secret ballot. A secret ballot seems reasonable to me * [boring war story about secret ballots to follow] Absent group consensus on whether a secret ballot is appropriate, this seems a fair approach - one "No" to secret ballots means no secret ballot until we set the process for votes. Given the later developments, I'd say keep waiting for that final vote. Emphasis added. What happens if he does not? Presumably another vote. Condolences. Depending on where your 6 of 7 is, the 7th vote may resolve the issue in any case. * Boring secret ballot war story only related by the greatest of tangents. Way back in the 1e/2e days, we used to elect a party leader. "Leader" = person no one listens to, but who is to blame if anything goes wrong. What possessed them to elect my CHAOTIC good character as leader I will never know. But they did. Being a fair and reasonable person, my character held secret ballots for major decisions. [Each player would note their vote on a slip of paper, which they handed to the DM] Being the leader, my character counted the votes and announced the results. [I didn't have to see the papers as a player and my character just tossed them in a hat before counting them.] Being it was a secret ballot, my character would then toss the papers in the fire, torch, lantern, whatever. Being CHAOTIC in all caps, my note generally said "I am the leader. I count the votes. The vote was 4 in favour, 2 opposed, 1 abstention." The first time I did that, the DM's face should have blown the whole deal if anyone else was watching, but he regained his composure quickly. The first few, I just voted because my character did not much care about the results. But if he did...well, you all voted on a leader! [/QUOTE]
