[QUOTE="Cristian Andreu, post: 6596582, member: 23822"] On average, my main campaigns (to differentiate them from the short ones we play to try out new games or which are done for special occasions) last between 2-3 years, and though we use different characters for each (except one time about 12 years ago, when three of my players asked to reutilize their characters from an older campaign), almost all of them are connected in one way or another. Our current Planescape campaign (it's been going since November 2013) started in 15th level, so the PCs have been travelling a lot around the planes. Thus, they have been able to see first hand the consequenses of past campaigns, and two of their fondest previous characters played a pretty big role earlier in the story; depending on how things develop, they might have to face against another in a few sessions. There's also a reccuring former PC: Xarthon the Gnome. He was played by a friend who wasn't regular on the group but once every few years would ask to be invited for one session. As luck would have it, the three times he played he ended stranded in a different plane. So now Xarthon appears from time to time in the most unlikely -and most unlucky- locations, only to be invariably stranded somewhere else shorthly thereafter. The guy who ran it stopped roleplaying several years ago, but regularly asks about where Xarthon is currently at in the grand scheme of things. [/QUOTE]
