[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 6821734"] I do. One of my players constantly gets bored with their characters and wants to hop out into something new. I'd say it's probably every 2-3 months this happens. I want my players to enjoy their time at the table and not be burdened playing a character they're no longer enjoying. However, I want my group to remain cohesive so switch-outs need to happen at reasonable times. No switchouts in the wilderness. New characters come in with 1st-level starting gold and basic gear, rationale: the only reason your high-level character gave up their non-adventuring lifestyle is because they are currently down on their luck. Perhaps they pissed off a local Lord or alienated themselves from the local thieves guild, but whatever the reason, the end result is you are basically broke, homeless and friendless. And that group of dirty, smelly guys asking around the bar for a new adventuring companion might just be your ticket back in to the good life. Also, current level -2. Even with parties that all level the same. Opportunities will be provided to catch up, it's up to you to take them. I want you to have fun. But I don't want constant interruptions of the flow of the game because you're bored easily. Put some extra effort into the next one. DM reserves the right to deny switch-outs at any time, or increase the penalties. [/QUOTE]
