    umm.. before I start this operation I'd like to know if someone has tried this. Does this work:
    I need a good thief. Yoshi is out and Jan is not my type. I have played 1/3 or something of the game and I kicked Yoshimo out. Now to the idea.. can I start a multiplayer session from exact location where I am now? export a saved game? Can't remember but I think it was possible..
    If yes then I'd create the sixth character and save the game. Copy the file from 'mpsave' to 'save' and now I should be in same spot with a brand new thief. Right?
    But if everything so far has worked the final question would be will romances and other NPC interaction stop? Or will they make it through the multiplayer export?

    I know another way would be using ShadowKeeper, but I am not an expert with all those stats and stuff and I'd prolly get greedy and make so uber-killer character which would spoil the game. Is there a third way to do this? ..to add a custom character in mid-point?

    Thanks.

    You can copy a multi-player save into a single-player save, but I'm pretty sure that you can't copy a single-player into a multi-player. Ir would seem to me that a multi-player game would require a few tidbits of info that a single-player save doesn't provide.

    You're right though, you could export and import your character into a multi-player session.
