Last time I read some 2ed extension and 3ed standard manuals, I got struck with an idea of making prestige classes for BG2 with ToB installed. The only trouble is to add the prestige class features without unintentionally worsening or removing any parameter/ability already had. Aha, and 'remembering' the initial class. Anyone tried that already?

In the year of Our Lord two thousand and second at the seventh day of December the saint Ganeo did from heaven descend and unto the noble lord Lucas such he spoke words, lowering the holy arm in which he held the chalice: 'Pious paladin and beloved son of mine. Take ye the very chalice and upon his flowing streams found ye this noble order'. This said, the saint extended the holy arm in which he held the chalice and bade him drink. When the noble lord Lucas received the last drop, the saint raised the holy arm in which he held the chalice and blessed the order.

If I understand you correctly, then you could try using scripts to allow your character to gain abilities if they choose a prestige class. They will also still be identified as the original class.

More than correctly. Thanks a lot, Sim.If I understand you correctly, then you could try using scripts to allow your character to gain abilities if they choose a prestige class. They will also still be identified as the original class.

I'd also like to make it look like a multi-class feature or choosing where to assign a level. Also adjusting the hitdice for the prestige class would be possible this way... I guess it would be a good deal of heavy scripting.

Prestige classes for ToB? If I'm not mistaken that is a 3rd edition thingy, isn't it? The way 2e's multiclassing works, that would be rather difficult, wouldn't it?

A bit... It's making multiclassing asymmetric. And allowing humans to add a second class without forfeiting the previous one. Unless one makes it like real dualling, but something should be done to prevent taking such classes at the creation screen.Prestige classes for ToB?

I'm afraid, I'm not good enough.
