[QUOTE="Goddess FallenAngel, post: 1152438, member: 11434"] Do you have a problem with a player running multiple PCs during the same game? Let me explain why I asked... If someone came to me with that character concept, I would rule that the player have 2 seperate characters sheets and 1 equipment list. Everytime the personalities switch, the player switches character sheets. Basically, completely different stats, skills, feats, max HP, etc. I would say no ECL. The reason I would say no ECL is because I would [i]award encounter XP seperately for each personality[/i]. Basically, the player is playing 2 characters and just switches off every once in a while. Thus, one personality may occasionally be a bit higher, XP-wise, then the other - but that can be balanced by causing the PC to switch personalities fairly often and rule that the role-playing XP given at the end of the night for the session can be split as needed between PCs to keep them balanced, but the encounter XP must go to the PC who actually was in the encounter (if both personalities were, split evenly or split as needed to keep PCs balanced in level).
