[QUOTE="rmcoen, post: 9733179, member: 6692404"] I guess I do the same (in my current campaign), but weighted closer to the Schulb side of the scale. level 1ish is kids, teenagers, and completely untrained. level 2 is normal competence or older-but-not great. level 3 is very competent or normal-but-experienced. level 4 is elite/master. level 5 is celebrity-status, everyone knows your name, grandmaster, amazing. Have you heard about the archmage of the Ruby Spire? I hear she can [I]fly[/I]!!! And that Captain of the Royal Guard... damn, I saw him take down two knights at the same time! PCs - by virtue of Fate, divine favor, extreme luck, insidious rituals during gestation, whatever - quickly rise through these ranks, and eclipse the normal scale. But because of that "quickly" aspect... don't necessarily achieve the same fame as the Captain does. The "Archmage" might try to push them around, only to see them facetank the [I]fireball[/I], [I]dimension door[/I] behind her, and pickpocket her spellbook.... [/QUOTE]
