Is it possible to create a prophecies character but play through factions or nightfall from level 1? I really like the prophecies character appearance choices, but I would rather play either the nightfall campaign or factions.
Nope, when you create a character, the options for their look is based on where they start. Prophecies, Factions, and Nightfall, although all have the 6 core classes, have different hair, face, and armor sets for creating a character.
The lowest realistic level you can get in another campaign is 5 orso.
Though from Proph to others you can go as low as lvl 3 if you're really careful with quests etc.
you can but its kinda hard make a charicter in prophences and get the mesmer as scecondary then get run from ascolon to la and then do the quest, ull be lvl 2 but better than nothing.
My ranger was started in Prophecies and I managed to get him over to Cantha at level 3 (reward made him 4) and then at level 4 did the Elonian crossover quest in Kaineng. I was pretty happy to have level 15 heroes at level 4
