(read the Thread above for further information)Now I have nearly the same problem with one player who became a lycanthrop with LA+2. But I remembered the Forgotten Realms Setting where is written that if you start with a powerfull race you start with some XP - even if first level.Which made me think of: If you get a level adjustment by getting a template (like the lycanthrope) - do you get a XP boost? Like if you have started with it?This would explain the sacrifice of the Saint - he does not get a XP boost. He has two work through two levels without getting any benefit of them.What do you think?Cheers, Evil DM</blockquote>
