After making it to the temple of xerzia i determined that one of my party members just isn't cutting the mustard and i swapped her out for another member. the problem is that the new member is a low level character.
i realize that i can use the teleporters to go back to previous areas of the game but where specifically is a good spot to get her upto speed quickly?
on a related note, if i drop a character will he retain all the items/equipment that he had at the time i dropped him off?
where is a good place to level up a weak party member?

It depends on the level of the new party member. He gets the most XP killing monsters at roughly the same level as he is. If he is too low(10+ levels below your other characters), then I think it's best to leave him at the inn. Sometime later he'll level up to only 2 levels below your main character.
And yes, he will keep everything in the inventory if you drop him off.

When you first add a henchman to your party, they will be a certain level
(based on your position in the main story); but, most of their skill points
are unspent--so you can take them on any skill path you desire. The first two
henchmen, Deru and Lothar, are low level and can be leveled any way you
desire. Later henchmen are pretty much already set in their class path;
though, Taar could probably be leveled in a class other than nature mage, if
you start on it right away.
Henchmen do not level up if they are not in your party. They will also not
level up when you first add them to your party. However, if you re-hire a
henchman from the Inn, they will level up based on the following criteria:
If the henchman is more than 15 levels below your level, the henchman will
gain 20 levels or enough levels to rise to two (2) levels under you,
whichever is lower. Thus, if you are 30th level and you add a henchman from
the Inn:
And the henchman is 5th level, the henchman will increase to 25th level
And the henchman is 10th level, the henchman will increase to 28th level
And the henchman is 20th level, the henchman will not increase in level
