One of my players logged into the game with the name Izekeal and created a character sheet; however, he hasn't been able to switch over to his character's name. I suspect he named his sheet Izekeal, thinking he could change the character's name and adopt it later. So I guess my question is, how do you go about changing the sheet's name?

Lets see... I take it that you are still runing FG 1.5 then? If you are runing a straight outta the box D20 I'd recomend upgrading to 2.0 this will solve the problem much easier.

If you are running any other kind of ruleset things get a bit iffier of course and you will need to open the campaign folder and edit the DB.XML file with notepad or similar program.

<node name="Alexandra">


In it you should be able to seek for the current displayname until you find a "Node name" (Alexandra in my example) and then just change it there.
