Hi,

Before I subscribe to DDI, I want to check how the character builder is licensed and installed.

Firstly, if I wanted to use the character builder from both a home PC and a work PC, would I be able to do so with a single subscription? Or would I need to take out two subscriptions?

Secondly, if a friend has the character builder installed and licensed, would I be able to see my PCs from his copy of the character builder (with appropriate log-ins etc)?

You only need one subscription as you can download up to five updates to the character builder per month/update.

Having said that your work computer might not allow downloads. (Besides, you should be working. ;)

The characters are stored locally on your machine, not logging in. You would either have to copy your character to your friend's computer or build it using his computer.

My players all send me an email with their character files as they get updated so I can keep them on file and view them as needed. It works really well.
