[QUOTE="Sunseeker, post: 7724218"] "Experience Points" are just a numerical representation of in-game experience gained by an in-came character while participating in in-game activities. NPCs can gain experience, gain classes and advance in level just fine. They are simply not the party and not the focus of the story so we don't talk about it, if an NPC survives an encounter, they get XP but they're less likely to ever be involved in another encounter. I think it's odd that one might say NPCs cannot gain classes or levels, if that were true, how would the PC paladin ever get trained? To whom would the Wizard go to learn from? While some classes are self-learning (like Sorcerers) and some degree of self-teaching can occur in all classes, most classes would at least require teaching for level 1. Which would imply that [I]someone else[/I] has made it to level 1 to pass on that knowledge, a someone else that is likely an NPC. [/QUOTE]
