It's even possible we would be lower level if you were just doing by-the-book combat-based XP. My point, however, was pertaining to state of affairs we often reach during a fight - particularly the reduced posts and therefore XP. I also know you tend to give a little bonus after the completion of a big fight and a more-significant bonus at the conclusion of a story arc, so it may well balance out. It just doesn't balance that little twinge of disappointment we sometimes feel after getting a nice load of XP during the RP segments, then something roughly half of what we had before (as pointed out by Fangor above). And as I said before, just food for thought. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the actual advancement of my character. PbPs are notoriously slow when it comes to gaining levels.No guarantees we'd really take that option, seeing as we've got some very thick-headed party members (Jareth included, naturally <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />), but it would add to the player choice aspect. And it would help emphasize the face-man style characters if/when they join the others.(Assuming they survive to do so and survive the meeting <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> - I foresee trouble between Jareth and Alexander.)Excellent. I settled on Sidestep Charge. And we'll just keep the others in mind for when I get the next Spell Power iteration, yes? Anyways, here is Jareth's level-up info for your approval.[sblock=Jareth Level 6 Changes]Jareth Level-up.HP increase in attached die roll (d8+2).BAB increases to +6/+1.
