Character remake

When remaking your character, you have three options.

• 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, except that the memory of the old one is retained.
• Remake with same name AFTER you use -delete_character command. Again, you will not retain items, gold, crafting points, 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. In this case, you keep all items and properties you may own. You also keep your allocated crafting points, but will not earn any new crafting points until after you reach your old level.

Longer explanations

Deleveling

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 Very silly and immersion-disrupting for other players if they notice what you are doing. Avoid this one.
• Spend 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 with same name

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 -delete_character command to delete your existing character.
• Important: Wait until the next time there is a server reset. There is usually one every 24 hours, and you can check to track server uptime.
• Create the new character.

Step 2 is very important, because the server must first "forget" about your old character. Failing to do so will result in the following:

• 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.
• 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 the data which previously appeared to have been carried over from the old character.

For Characters at or above Level 16

The automatic Epic Sacrifice system ("rolling") now applies to all characters 16 and above. If you want to remake the character, it MUST be at 15 or below.

DM Lilac and Mith said:

"If your character is below the threshold of being allowed to roll, then you are welcome to remake them all you want (with a reset inbetween to prevent bugs).

If your character is above the threshold, then get a DM to lower you below, and then remake.

If you roll a character for a reward, you are not allowed to remake them."

In fact, you may only remake a character as long as you delete them naturally through -delete_character being below level 16. If the character encounters any other sort of permadeath, they may not be remade.
