Quick Summary

Arelith has a number of options available regarding adjusting your Character and remaking them entirely.

Relevel - Using the console command -relevel, you will be returned to level 1 whilst retaining all of your XP. This will allow you to reselect Feats, Skill and Stats from level 2.

Remake - Using the ingame command -remake_character will delete your character without rolling on the Epic Sacrifice system. This will allow you to remake a Character of the same name. A server reset is required before you can re-select the same name

Character Adjustment - Character adjustments have been discontinued for the time being. For more information, please read This Announcement.

Process Explanations

Relevel

Using the ingame command -relevel will return you to level 1 whilst retaining all of your XP. It is imperative that you reach level 2 before logging out, as it may result in a loss of your inventory.

Note: Your crafting points are not reset with the -relevel command. This is only available through a request to the DM team and at DM discretion.

Remake

At any point, you may choose to use the -remake_character command to remake your Character from scratch. This process will delete your Character without rolling on the Epic Sacrifice table.

You may remake your Character with the same name and retain prior RP memories
Your Character MUST remain the same race
You cannot add new awards to a remade character
When remaking a character who had an award, you will need an award available to spend on it again for the remake.

This process will reset your XP, Bank Balance, Inventory, Storage, Properties and any other previously stored information regarding your Character.

Note: A server reset will need to take place before using the same name.

Vampires: Due to server population limits on Vampires, they are not eligible for a remake.

Rules and Etiquette

Muling is not permitted in any form. Following a remake, any property or posessions previously held by the Character may not be retaken or returned to them.

Note: Properties may be owned again, provided they are found for sale uninfluenced.

In the case of a character Relevel it is considered to be an exploit when abusing the command for examples such as:

Rebuilding to take and use Crafting Feats and then switching back
Rebuilding to take and use Class/Skills and then switching back
Selecting a class with a language and then switching back
Selecting a class to manipulate the crafting system and then switching back.

If in doubt of what is and is not "Gaming the system" ask a member of the DM Team. For most cases, if you are going to switch class, we will expect you to stick with it and have good RP reasons to have switched in the first place. Excessive use of the relevel function is monitored.

Character Adjustments

First Level adjustments have been discontinued for the time being. For more information, please read This Announcement.

-When remaking your character, you have three options.
+{{SystemsNav|title=Character Remake}}
-* Fresh Start: Remake with a slightly different name. No transfer of items, gold or properties is allowed. This is just like creating a new character.
-* Remake with same name AFTER you use [[Console_commands#-delete_character|-delete_character]] command. Again, you will not retain craftpoints, shops, quarters, etc. See below for an extended explanation.
-* Ask a DM to delevel you to any level you want. Those levels will not be refunded.

+Arelith has a number of options available regarding adjusting your Character and remaking them entirely.
-=== Deleveling===
+Relevel - Using the console command [[Console_command#-relevel|-relevel]], you will be returned to level 1 whilst retaining all of your XP. This will allow you to reselect Feats, Skill and Stats from level 2.
-You can ask a DM for assistance with deleveling, but you will be not getting the removed EXP back. There are several alternative ways in which you can delevel by yourself:
-* You can use the Book of Deities for removal of EXP. Every time you switch deity you will lose 500 EXP.
-* Go on daring raids, die and respawn.
-* Spent gold on [[enchanting]] items with very little chance of success.
-Remember: There are no refunds. You must gain the lost experience through normal means. Note also that the transfer of items or gold between any of your characters is not permitted.
+Remake - Using the ingame command [[Console_command#-remake_character|-remake_character]] will delete your character without rolling on the Epic Sacrifice system. This will allow you to remake a Character of the same name. A server reset is required before you can re-select the same name
-=== Remake with same name===
+Character Adjustment - Character adjustments have been discontinued for the time being. For more information, please read [https://forum.nwnarelith.com/viewtopic.php?f=23&p=327279#p327279| This Announcement].
-Due to a bug in Neverwinter Nights, the game remembers certain things about your character even after deletion, and applies that memory to a new character with the same name, even if it is not exactly the same character. Here is the recommended remake process.
-* Issue the [[Console_commands#-delete_character|-delete_character]] command to delete your existing character.
+== Process Explanations ==
-* '''Important''': Wait until the next time there is a server reset. There is usually one every 24 hours, and you can check [http://portal.arelith.com/] to track server uptime.
+=== Relevel ===
-* Create the new character.
+Using the ingame command [[Console_command#-relevel|-relevel]] will return you to level 1 whilst retaining all of your XP. It is imperative that you reach level 2 before logging out, as it may result in a loss of your inventory.
-Step 2 is very important, because the server must first "forget" about your old character. Failing to do so will result in the following:
+:'''Note''': Your crafting points are not reset with the [[Console_command#-relevel|-relevel]] command.  This is only available through a request to the DM team and at DM discretion.
-* When you first log in, you will see your full bank account, and have access to any quarters, shops, citizenships etc. that your old character had.
+=== Remake ===
-* After the next server restart, or when you change server, you will lose '''all''' of your character's possessions, bank balance will reset and you will lose those things which were previously carried over from the old character.
+At any point, you may choose to use the -remake_character command to remake your Character from scratch. This process will delete your Character without rolling on the Epic Sacrifice table.
+*You may remake your Character with the same name and retain prior RP memories
+*Your Character MUST remain the same race
+*You cannot add new awards to a remade character
+*When remaking a character who had an award, you will need an award available to spend on it again for the remake.
+This process will reset your XP, Bank Balance, Inventory, Storage, Properties and any other previously stored information regarding your Character.
