LEW has had a number of pairs who have formed especially cloes friendships: Telerin/Aranel, Iggy/Sara, Rurik/Sturm, just off the top of my head, have all done series of adventures together. SlagMortar has some other examples. The characters in the Monemvassia series mostly stayed together through multiple adventures -- Nurlan and Tenebrynn for all four, others for overlapping subsets.These have generally been characters of the same level, starting out together, but not always. The M-series crew recruited two first-level characters to join them in M3 when most of the rest were 4th. There are obvious reasons why many people prefer to play with characters of the same level, but if someone is interested in playing a mentor to another PC, and someone else is interested in playing an apprentice sort, and they happen to meet at appropriate stages in their careers, there's every reason they could choose to stay together as a team.Perfect! A built-in system for a character who starts as a sidekick of significantly lower level to gradually develop into a peer of her mentor.</blockquote>
