[QUOTE="Cullain, post: 226149, member: 708"] first things first. 9 players is a LOT to deal with, without them playing two characters. Since the players don't want to start over, how about this: split them up into two groups, with alternating sessions for each group. This way, they don't have to get rid of their characters, but it becomes signifigantly more manageable. Second: a first level character is next to useless in a party like this, and it's sorta unfair to force a player to start at first. I'd up the characters level signifigantly. Third: a 19th level character is going to be way too much for a group like this. Talk to the player, see if he's willing to retire the character, make him an NPC. Have him start a new character. Fourth: rings of three wished, aye carumba! This is kinda cheesey, but force them into situations where using a wish is the only way to get them out. Force them to blow all these wishes. Fifth: personally, I'd just ask everyone to start over, with new characters. these suggestions, and others that have been mentioned, might do some good. But starting over would definitely be the best option, IMO Cullain [/QUOTE]
