Note: this function is incredibly useful and is in no way restricted to Henchmen. The warnings that the function will fail if the class prerequisites are not met or if the creature didn't follow his level-up package, are leftovers from NWN1 and are no longer justified. This is the only function that can be used to make any multiclass combination you want, through scripting.

- The LevelUpHenchman() NWScript command causes the specified object (which must be a creature) to perform an automatic level-up process. The command is named for its initial purpose, leveling the player's henchman in the Shadows of Undrentide campaign. However, it can be used for any creature — including player characters, as is done in one case at the start of the Hordes of the Underdark campaign. (Player characters do need to have the experience points for the level first; non-player characters ignore this requirement. In either case, SetXP() can be used to remove levels.)
- function LevelUpHenchman (object oCreature, int nClass, int bReadyAllSpells = FALSE) Levels up a creature using default settings. If successfull it returns the level the creature now is, or 0 if it fails. If you want to give them a different level (i.e. Give a Fighter a level of Wizard) you can specify that in the nClass. However, if you specify a class to which the creature no package specified, they will use the default package for that class for their levelup choices. (i.e. no Barbarian Savage/Wizard Divination combinations). If you turn on bReadyAllSpells, all memorized spells will be ready to cast without resting.

- The LevelUpHenchman() NWScript command causes the specified object (which must be a creature) to perform an automatic level-up process. The command is named for its initial purpose, leveling the player's henchman in the Shadows of Undrentide campaign. However, it can be used for any creature — including player characters, as is done in one case at the start of the Hordes of the Underdark campaign. (Player characters do need to have the experience points for the level first; non-player characters ignore this requirement. In either case, SetXP() can be used to remove levels.) This command allows specifying the class to be gained, as well as the package to be used for choosing skills, feats, etc. This allows variability in how creatures level, as a different class or package could be specified for each level (still within the limit of three classes per creature, and prestige class prerequisites must still be met). However, when dealing with creatures created in the Toolset, LevelUpHenchman() tends to only work if the creature was created with a single hit die. There may be a way to create a higher-level creature that will work with this command, but it is generally not worth the trouble as the same result could be achieved by calling LevelUpHenchman() when the creature spawns. Unlike the normal level-up process for player characters, prerequisites need to be met before leveling. (Normally, player characters just need to have met prerequisites at the point in the leveling process when a choice is made.) For example, epic feats will not be taken until level 22 as they require character level 21, which is not met before the level-up process for level 21. Also, any feat assigned through the Toolset is not considered when the creature is leveling up, allowing the creature to select a feat it already has.
- function LevelUpHenchman (object oCreature, int nClass, int bReadyAllSpells = FALSE) Levels up a creature using default settings. If successfull it returns the level the creature now is, or 0 if it fails. If you want to give them a different level (i.e. Give a Fighter a level of Wizard) you can specify that in the nClass.
