3. The first character. Each player’s first character will start with a total level equal to the level of the lowest single-class character in the party. Dual or multi-class characters must share this level between the classes chosen. [I need a better system than this]
4. The number of experience points that a character starts with will be determined by the DM.
5. Each player’s second and subsequent characters will start one level below the lowest single-class player character in the party. Dual or multi-class characters must share this level between the classes chosen.
6. The number of experience points that a character starts with will equal the base XP for that level + (1d100 - 10)% of the difference between the current level and the next level.

· plus 1% for every point of Wisdom, Intelligence or Constitution over 15.
· plus 1% for characters 5th - 8th level
· plus 2% for characters 9th level or higher
· calculated chance is HALVED if the character is a Priest, Wizard or non-human
8. Read Skills & Powers page 156 for negative effects if the roll is higher than 96%
