I want to try the taking out the divine arcane magic divide in D20 and see how it plays. I had success making all skill class skills. The doomsayers were wrong the rogue didn't get hosed everybody did not take spot. It opened up customization of the PCs especially for the fighter times.  How I handle city guard and nobles and other NPCs is I make them the level I need for the story. I view level as a mechanic to allow PCs new abilities. Like hit points it is really artificial and gamiest so I don't let it tie my hands story wise. As for a reason why the king sends PCs out to do the dirty work instead of the city guard or army that is really easy. The PCs are expendable usually if they die the king does not owe a death debt to family also why would he risk his city guards they are better trained at keeping order and are known by the people and him. As for the army they are fine for war but when you need a small group who better than a small group of adventurers.</blockquote>
