[QUOTE="Ezequielramone, post: 7442922, member: 6762048"] I'm running a dark sun campaign and between modules a player asked me to change his pc. The original had a focus (a madness every dwarf have in Athas). And he went on a solo quest to complete it. He needed a champion and at that point he realised the party's gladiator was that champion so he could go on with the second step of his focus. They were fighting Hamanu's army and the player asked me if he could play a halflings who changed side. So he was playing the second pc. The first dwarf came back one session (because two players couldn't play) and gave the sword he created to his champion and then he disappeared (first time running 2 PCs). At the end of the next adventure in the final fight I called for the dwarf to show up. Everyone at the table was happy to see the dwarf again. And for fighting by his side again. So, for that (long) encounter he played with two pcs. So I allow it in some cases Also, in the original Dark Sun box there are rules for having more than one pc, so it was something I wanted to try it, maybe more than on pc at the same time could only happens in certain circumstances. Now the gladiator want to change for a while and play an elf. It has to be said that from the beginning the player was very respectful about this. He wrote me saying that he wanted to try another character and he didn't want to have any kind of advantage, he was ok if the next pc had a lower level or something. And both times he told the other players the same, he asked if someone was uncomfortable about him having 2 PCs, but everyone was ok and all of us were happy. [/QUOTE]
