It is reasonable, since you're simply moving the bonus - so to speak. The hard part is the moving itself, you have to search through the Affects section - the bonuses are not simply stats changes, they are affects that are applied to your character. So you'll have to search through the list and find the one you want to move, then simply cut and paste it to the other character.

If I'm not mistaken, don't the bonuses go to the person who inserts the tears rather than the main character?

Well, only the main character can insert the Tears, so only the main character gets the bonuses.

Err, i just don't think that it's right for a "regular" person to receive a bonus that was especially entitled to the son of a god, by tests that are made from his own will.

If it was Imoen to receive the bonus, then i wouldn't know what to say, but viccy isn't a god-child, so...
Being an Evil Overlord seems to be a good career choice. It pays well, there are all sorts of perks and you can set your own hours. However every Evil Overlord I've read about in books or seen in movies invariably gets overthrown and destroyed in the end. I've noticed that no matter whether they are barbarian lords, deranged wizards, mad scientists or alien invaders, they always seem to make the same basic mistakes every single time. Therefore, if I ever happen to become an Evil Overlord, ...

But Viccy is banging a god child so you know..... maybe god-powers are like STDs.....

Anyways, I don't see a problem with it. All the bonuses are easy to change except the immunity one, still ahven't figured out how to do that :(

With the latest version of [url="http://www.mud-master.com/shadowkeeper/"]Shadow Keeper[/url] (2.1.4), all of the bonuses are very easy to change, since they are all listed with proper names - with the exception of Magic Resistance, which is listed as Type: 0x00A6. You can find them at the Affects tab of your character, once there you can just simply cut the affect and paste it to the Affects tab of any NPC you wish.

General - From your post, it seems that you are simply adding the stats to your character, this is not how the bonuses work - all of them are added to the Affects section of your character.

It gives you an advantage (though minor), so I'd have to call it cheating. Don't let that hold you back, though. ;) You could refer to it as customizing instead if it makes you feel better. ;)
