[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 5449531, member: 92511"] Well, I haven't been in any campaigns long enough to get anywhere since the 1 & 2e days. For actual, real, starting at 1st level...I have 3. A human magic-user up to 17, a human cleric up tp 15 or 16, and an elf fighter who I took to 12 if memory serves. Sorry, 4. THere was my halfling fighter/thief who made it up there though the actual levels right now escape me. (Our group back in the day kinda ignored demi-human level limits.) All of whom began in BECMI - the elf was just "an elf" then, of course, and transferred to 1e and eventually 2e. I am fairly certain all of them except the elf had to be raised/resurrected at least once. So a big "No" for the "not dying ever." My other characters who made it past 10th were usually begun either around 4th-7th or where old character who I "jumped" up to the appropriate levels the DM wanted for a particular campaign. i.e. a half-elf ranger-priest who ended up being, I want to say, Rgr 9/Cle 6...but don't quote me on that...it was decades ago. As for 20th? No. Never got past the mid-high teens...which, for me, was plenty high-level enough to kick some serious butt. :D *sigh* Good times. --Steel Dragons [/QUOTE]
