Message: <blockquote data-quote="rounser" data-source="post: 257469" data-attributes="member: 1106">You could make the NPC classes the only starting options, and take on PC classes as prestige classes with prerequisites.  Adept maps well onto cleric and druid, expert onto wizard and bard etc.  I think this even works for the sorceror, since I can envision a commoner's powers "awakening" one day.Just so there isn't a sudden shock of abilities kicking in at level 1 in the PC class, you could also give the NPC class character an apprentice level in the class the level before they qualify for it.</blockquote>
