[QUOTE="Rashak Mani, post: 14467, member: 642"] Careful there... ok the idea is of course that a half Celestial should have PCs with 3 more levels around... but remember that the XPs are the same as those 3 lvls higher. If the XP was for a character 3 lvls lower the half celestial would quickly catch up to the other PCs since the XP difference to pass a level wouldnt be as big as the other PCs. All you do is consider the half celestials XP number necessary as his level +3 ... 1st lvl 1/2 celestial has the same XP as a 4th lvl PC 2nd 5th lvl and so on. I had a 7th lvl Celestial in a 10th lvl campaign for example... and needed same amount XP as the others to pass a level... yet I had only 7HD and the powers of a 7th lvl character only + half celestial bonuses (which are very very very good). In general half celestials arent worthwhile in low level campaigns... and in fact should even appear until a 4th lvl group exists (they would be 1st lvl.... with 1st lvl hps = certain death ). In higher level campaigns the extra CON can make up for the lesser number of lvls. [/QUOTE]
