Nothing new about doing that.My concern is how to address character level. Unlike earlier pre-3E incarnations of D&D (which I don't care for), 4E doesn't assume a 'rank' for each character. Instead it assumes a 'place in the world' based on tiers.At Level 1, you're already exceptional, but looking for a place in the world.At Level 11, you've found your place, have begun to specialize and start going into uncharted areas of adventure.At Level 21, physics and mortality are mere speed bumps, and the consequences of your deeds ripple into the future or the planes beyond.My character is entering the campaign at Lvl 6. I DMed the first adventure, incidentally. He can't just be sitting around town doing nothing, as he does have HEROIC levels, but he's not quite a figure of renown just yet.I want to know how you would describe that level of accomplishment. Consider it an exercise and question for feedback all at once.</blockquote>
