The Character Crucible puts your character concepts through their paces. Level and de-level or change alignment at will. Buy all the default items of NWN and its expansion SoU with an unlimited suppy of cash. Then, test your design on AC, SR and saving throw graded combat dummies and targets. Spell casters can test their offensive, defensive and counterspelling abilities against all levels and types of casters. Then when you're happy with the numbers, try your character out on spawns of every single default creature in NWN and SoU! If you're having difficulty against some opponents, consult the combat instructor for key monster statistics and directed analysis of both their strengths and weaknesses. This is as much a ruleset teaching guide for n00bs as it is a powergamer's character design utility.
Really well done. Better than the other 'level up' mods I have tried so far.
I especially like the details! Picking and choosing creatures to traing against is a great idea!
Now, this is NOT a complaint, just a simple request for an update if possible. Are you planning on adding HOTU and CEP 1.5x to the possibilites in the game?

Almost 2000 downloads and no votes? depressing. This is an excellent piece of work and achieves it's goals rather well. I'd hope for an update, but it is fine and useful as it is.
This is the most thorough level-up module I've ever seen! I use it to meet module level requirements, and this fits the bill SUPERBLY. XP and gold, as to be expected, are here. But then you get to break in your character by seeing how he/she does versus different opponents, helping you refine strategies against ever default creature in the game.
Thanks,
SewerbirdHrm.... wonder what I should put as my signature...
