Or what you could do is play Jonny's dungeoun once, and then right before you leave, have your PC dump all hear gear on the ground. Then Save. Convert the Saved game to Multiplayer, and then whenever you start a new game, just use that Multiplayer save and roll or import a new character in the PC slot. Then boom, there you are, say Hi to Minsc, Jaheira, Imoen & Yoshimo, pick up your gear, walk out the door and Level Up.

Perfectly legal, saves a buttload of boredom.
