Hi There,

shortly a few questions arose concerning the following

1) Caster Lvl for creating Items. What is the Caster Lvl for Creating Items ? Same as for Casting Spells ? So can i use practiced Spellcasting Feat to also boost my item Creation? do the Spell progression increases from some Prestige Classes (Like Divine Oracle) also increase CL for Crafting or do they only allow higher Spells and more Spellslots ?

2) using the Leadership Feat I attracted a cohort. Now i was wondering how is the Cohort supposed to check for money. The LGCS states that the cohort may never have more wealth than apporpriate for his lvl. In my case thats Lvl 4 and 3300 gp. But how do I count the wealth regarding her Items. Do i use the full market Price to calculate or half the price (what i would get from it when i sell the items accordungly). If its the first then the only reason a cohort needs money is to provide for her accomodation and can always use Luxury upkeep (else she got no way of spending money at all).

3) When entering Metaorganisations, my Char would enter a church MO as a simple beliver, gaining Benefits. Then switch to Paladin Order gaining other benfits and at last enter the church ranks as cleric and get the rewards a third time. Since the rules dont state anything on having to leave church Organisations i guess i can remain in all three and still all benefits. Would like to have opinions on this.. .or do i have to pester my triad for this ?

THx

Caster level for creating items is listed in the DM (or other source) along with the item's description. Use your combined caster level of levels in your base casting class plus levels in PrCs that increase your casting and the practiced spellcasting feat, if you have it, to determine your caster level. This is for casting spells and crafting.

Buy items just as you would for your character. Your cohort can spend 10%, I think, on consumables such as scrolls and potions. Your cohort would have to spend money on upkeep and any purchases made between levelling.

How it works would depend upon the metaorg. I know of metaorgs that allow the benefits for being in different parts of the church to stack while other metaorgs in the same region do not.
