[QUOTE="Quickleaf, post: 6758111, member: 20323"] I brutally kill off the old character in increasingly vicious situations that lead to humiliating and grisly death. The new character starts at level 0 with no magic items, and must roll 3d6 in order for stats. And I repeat until the indecisive player makes up his mind. Then I may subject the character they finally decide on to "rocks fall, you die" just to teach them non-attachment. :D But seriously, there's no one right answer. At my table this rarely happens because I work with the players to tie their characters together, and I work individually with each player to tie their character to the story. If they wanted to switch characters for some reason, I'd have them make a new PC at the same level as the rest of the party with whatever magic items are appropriate for the campaign (DMG has guidelines for starting characters above 1st level, with recommended magic items according to how high/low fantasy your campaign is).
