I think you just have to login to the game as you do at the moment, then either buy the game from the online store or you can then add a retail key using the option. It will then add that game to your account, keeping your current characters.

If you want to keep playing with the characters you have created then you'll need to buy the campaign that they started in, until then you'll probably just have a message at the character screen saying that they're unavailable.

Should be noted that you'll only be able to play your trial characters if they are made in the same campaigns as the retail keys you add. A ranger made in Proph during the trial, for example, will remain locked if the only key you add to your account is the NF retail key.

of course you can! how poorly designed would it be to start a game and then be forced to start over once the trial ends.

If you buy a campaign that's not the one your playing with the trial, make sure you dump all your items / $$ in your Xunlai Chest before your trial ends. It's shared between all players on your account, otherwise you won't have access to them since you can't join as that player.
