[QUOTE="DND_Reborn, post: 8606701, member: 6987520"] Cool! It is interesting to hear how other people have their settings. :) You know, this reminds me of what I used to do in AD&D... You could "earn" 1 XP / level / day while "not adventuring" but through using your capabilities in every day life. Back then a spell was worth 50 bonus xp / spell level IIRC, so every 7 or eight weeks a 1st level caster might have cause to use their single 1st level spell. I actually wrote a VB program so I could select the class and amount of time in it to determine level. For 5E, 300 xp for 2nd level would take about a year, 600 xp more for 3rd level about another year, and so on. Here would be the chart for 5E: [ATTACH type="full" width="275px"]155460[/ATTACH] So, after about 10 years an NPC would be 6th level, and would take over 81 and a half years to make 20th level. But, of course, it never really felt right since that meant basically most NPC levels would be level 20... :D [/QUOTE]
