I can only tell you how I deal with it, IMC:1) PrCs are a variant. (Therefore, I have absolute control over what is allowed and what isn't.)2a) I have ruled that every PrC must be a part of an organization or college or brotherhood or what have you within the campaign world. Therefore, the first requirement to gaining a PrC is to gain entrance to the organization. Which may be difficult, especially if a character is already a member of another organization.2b) In order to continue gaining levels in a PrC, a character must train with members of that organization.2c) Membership into an organization has its own benefits and hindrances. (Mwhahaha!)3) All PrCs must be balanced with core classes. (Since that is the entire basis of the CR system. Any PrC that is inherently more powerful than a base class is disallowed, right off the bat. I think I will bring up, maybe...Peerless Archer?)...Now I know this system has problems. The first being, where did the first member of a PrC come from? (I hand wave this by saying that PrCs happen after a bunch of people get together, form a group, train together, and slowly evolve together.)</blockquote>
