<font color="cyan">I've just defeated Dace The Creator, and I'm informed that Mazzy has levelled up.

Nice, so I go to her record sheet, and try to level her up to level 16. It freezes.

Ok, reload.

Try again.

Freezes.

I load up again, move to a different area of the map, try again, and it freezes.

It won't let me level Mazzy up.

Any ideas why? I don't want to have to lose her because of this.

Is there any way around it?

I'm running the latest ToB patch, and also the Baldurdash ToB fixpack.

Ta guys!</font>

I had a similar problem in ToB with Kelsey. When he hit level 26 and I leveled him up he lost ALL ofhis spells. Getting ready for the very end would have sucked with him having no spells so I just didn't level him up. However, in SoA and at level 16 it is a bit different. Regarding my problem it was suggested an XP cap remover was the cause. So, perhaps the problem is a mod???

Peace, John.

i have no idea what the problem is, but try placing her up 1 level through SK. Don't give her any proficiences since she wouldn't gain 1 at that level. I'm not sure what adjustments you should make to your saving throws, however. Give her 3 extra HP as well. Next time she gets enough XP to level up, check out if it freezes again.
This is in no way a fix...wait for another reply if you want...sorry

<font color="cyan">I'll try a complete re-install...

It might get me somewhere, you never know!!!</font>
