[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 6756802"] Depends, if the player is okay with their character participating and someone else runs the character, then everything goes fine. If the character is not present, then yes they miss out, in most circumstances, there are exceptions. EX: I don't run XP, so "missing out" means a character wasn't involved with a specific resolution of a conflict. If this means they didn't fight the bandits, it also means they don't get the loot. If this means they missed the meeting with King, that means they don't get the reputation and applause. But if their absence means they missed the BIG FINAL BATTLE and therefore didn't gain a level from resolving this portion of the adventure, they'll still gain that level. They just won't have gained any of the loot or special recognition. When the party goes to next meet the King or someone important, that important person may be wary of this person that they don't recall and may be less likely to share their information with them.
