I know this from my own experience.I also agree that a newbie will have issues with a higher level character which is why I won't allow a newbie into a game with higher level characters over say around eighth. I don't agree that you have to play a character from first to be attached to it. One of my favorite characters came into the game at 12 level and I had a really great background for her that I could not have done starting at first.I usually don't go for characters from other games unless the setting is the same otherwise it is hard to make sense. I have seen a few rimes where it worked we had a PC come from Dragonlance into a Forgotten Relams game and it role played it very well.I also don't like them taking over an NPC I have seen that happen and from a role playing point of view I have never seen it work well. It is like the NPC has undergone a complete personality change. It can really ruin the immersion for me when that happens.</blockquote>
