So, right now I am in a campaign group with a DM that doesn't really have access to anything beyond the free content. I, myself, am just using the free content as well, but the character I'm playing technically uses content from Volo's Guide. This isn't much of an issue since we use off-site PDFs for the most part, but the rest of the party has also managed to make their characters in full in Beyond's builder so they show up properly in the Campaign screen (mine's sort of the odd-one out with a race-less barbarian placeholder).
That said, I'm about to join a campaign where the DM has all of the content and will be sharing it so we can get our characters put together here on Beyond. I have a few questions.
1.) If I get shared all the content for the second campaign, does that allow me to technically finish my character from my first campaign in the Beyond builder?
2.) If it does, what happens to that character when I lose access to content that was used to build him later?
3.) When I build my character for the second campaign, I will most certainly be using content that I do not normally have access to. What happens to that character in my roster when the campaign ends and I lose access to that content?
No, technically you have the content unlocked in the builder only for a character which has joined a campaign with enabled sharing.
If you lose the shared content, you can still see and use your character, but as soon as you modify something that includes non-free content, you can't take it back.
