No. You can only dual from a KIT to a CLASS.

An assassin is a ASSASSIN KIT of the THIEF CLASS. You could dual the ASSASSIN to a FIGHTER, not a KENSAI.

Easy when you know how eh

If you're not taking Aerie, Jaheira, Anomen or Viconia - then you will definitely want to play a cleric in order to have some Healing available for the party.

You could also multi-class. You could choose a half-elf Cleric/Ranger (strong combo) or an elven Cleric/Mage (MEGA-spells)

ORRRRRRRRR you could try a Bard kit and get some spellcasting coupled with some fighting skills without the obstacle of taking so long to "level-up" with a multi-class character. I'm playing a Bard now (Skald kit - though most people would recommend Bladesinger) and they gain new levels very quickly (of course, going solo is also helping me "level up" much faster too ).

yes it does:

You kill a dragon with a party of 6, say you get 48,000 XP (i think this sounds a bit low for a dragon, can't remember)
If a party of 6 kill it you'll get 8000XP per character.
If you play a party of 4, and kill the same dragon (48,000XP) get 12,000 per character [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'd recommend being some kind of thief, whether it be a kit, a multi-class, or a dual-class. You'll have all the bases covered. (Perhaps Swash dualed to Fighter?) As for your other question, Keldorn and Viconia will eventually come to blows, so I wouldn't take him. You might want to replace Valygar with Korgan, though - he fits in the party better, both alignment-wise and actual combat style. Plus he'll be your only party member who can wear any armor without penalties.

My humble suggestion would be a PC with some melee ability, or at least good with projectiles. Otherwise, you're going to have a pretty hard time, at least at first. Since a thief would be handy too, why not try a figher/thief?

If you go with Heian's suggestion, then don't bother with Edwin. He'd be duplicating your PC.
