Maybe when coming out with Future hero's instead of having them right there available to start new mayby make it so you have to go out into the world (or chaotic for some) and kill boss's and collect a part of "essence" that they have to collect several parts (more for better hero?) and have them turn into a quest giver (or random spot in world to make it harder to get) and have it spawn a Creature they have to defeat (again harder the better the hero is) and when (if) they kill the unit it drops a usable item that will change their current hero into a lvl 1 (yes lvl 1) and wipe their Gold/wood and plat/arc to 500g/500wood 0/0 plat/arc. when saving it gives them a new code for the new hero they have. Example - Phoenix Ranger
Kill the person who drops Medean curse (the name slips by me atm) and Deis (i think the green one right?) for two essences of the ranger. Take to xxxxx and have An archer spawn of medium difficulty (about avg of a solo god + the -1000 armor spell). upon killing you gain "Pure essence of Pheonix ranger" upon using you turn into a Pheonix Ranger
