Notes:

• Race/Class combinations marked with a “U” indicate that the character’s advancement in that class is Unlimited (can reach any level allowed in the campaign).
• Multi-class characters divide earned experience evenly between each of their classes.
• Firbolgs and Ogre Magi require 2x the normal amount of experience to advance a level (3x for Firbolg Priests).
  • Note that Firbolg priests gain additional spellcasting abilities above and beyond those typical of their class.
• Characters can exceed the listed limits, but must earn 3x normal experience for each level beyond the listed cap (4x for Firbolgs or Ogre Magi or 5x for Firbold Priests). In addition, characters with high prime requisite ability scores can exceed the listed limits as follows. For classes with multiple prime requisites, only the lowest is considered for determining increased level limits.

Prime Requisite Score	Additional Levels
1-13	none
14-15	+1
16-17	+2
18	+3
19	+4
20+	+5
