[QUOTE="OnlineDM, post: 5662486, member: 90804"] This happened by accident at the game I run online via MapTool last Friday night. I have seven players in the game, though it's rare to have all seven at once. This particular session began with five of the players in the game. One of the five normally plays a warlock named Alayne, but Alayne had gone off on her own during the end of the previous session to get a rest. Thus, I had Alayne's player and two other characters with no players, so I offered to let Alayne play Thorfin, the dwarf fighter who had led the charge into the current combat. An hour into the session, Thorfin's player showed up, so Alayne's player switched to running the character of the OTHER absent player. She had to scramble to figure out what the various powers and abilities could do, but she seemed to enjoy the change of pace (certainly better than sitting around doing nothing). The characters were 12th-level, by the way. Would I do this on purpose? Well, only if the players seemed to be really into the idea. [/QUOTE]
