This is my first time playing IWD but I just finished the BG series and want to give the infinity engine another go...a couple of quick questions about creating a party:
I played around w/ importing characters but was surprised that a couple were already level 12...it seems Easthaven is designed for 1st level play. Is this a function of having Heart of Winter installed? BTW, I created and am playing six 1st level characters.
Is it correct that my mage can memorize only 1 spell (1 slot) at the beginning? This seems a tad light when compared w/ the clerics three spells at the beginning of the game.
Thanks. gb

The high level characters were created for players who want to start with the expansion, not for the normal game. It's correct that your level 1 mage can only memorize 1 level 1 spell, level 1 clerics gets only 1 spell too, but they receive bonus spells for high wisdom.

Right on...thanks. GB

Mages can get an additional memorized spell slot if they were specialist mages (i.e. conjurer, invoker, etc.). Regular mages will only get the one.
