Levels and Experience
In Forums and Dragons, a character's level represents the culmination of their skills, abilities, proficiencies. A high level character is usually seen as a very experienced and famous individual. While low-level characters are usually up-and-coming adventurers.
character levels start at 1, but can be increased all the way to level 20 with proper experience. Below is a table with the experience requirements to increase your level. Experience cannot be lost, and will only increase over time.
| Level 1 (N/A) | Level 11 (85,000 XP) |
| Level 2 (300 XP) | Level 12 (100,000 XP) |
| Level 3 (900 XP) | Level 13 (120,000 XP) |
| Level 4 (2,700 XP) | Level 14 (140,000 XP) |
| Level 5 (6,500 XP) | Level 15 (165,000 XP) |
| Level 6 (14,000 XP) | Level 16 (195,000 XP) |
| Level 7 (23,000 XP) | Level 17 (225,000 XP) |
| Level 8 (34,000 XP) | Level 18 (265,000 XP) |
| Level 9 (48,000 XP) | Level 19 (305,000 XP) |
| Level 10 (64,000 XP) | Level 20 (355,000 XP) |
Characters gain experience at the rate of 1 XP for each word written in RP. These experience points are awarded at the conclusion of a thread. Characters can earn additional XP when defeating foes, completing quests, adventures, and campaigns.
Gold Pieces (GP)
The primary form of currency in Faerun is the Gold Piece (GP). It is a small gold coin with various images embedded on the front of it. There are also Copper Pieces (Worth 1/100 of a GP), Silver Pieces (Worth 1/10 of a GP), and Platinum Pieces (Worth 10 Gold). Gold Pieces can be spent to purchase equipment, armor, weapons, magical items, vehicles, and even property.
Characters gain GP at a rate of +10 GP per post made in-character. They are awarded at the end of each thread, in a similar fashion to Experience Points. Some threads will award additional GP, such as completing quests, adventures, or campaigns.
