Your first explanation is correct. Your exp and level would be tracked separately for each class. You would drop to that level and have the opportunity to level it up until you had both at 51. Your hours, gear, skill levels, base stats are all shared between classes.

As for dragons... yes I can see that dragons (and to a lesser degree humans) can more easily level up opposing kinds of classes than some races.

I wouldn't sneeze at an elf warrior or a giant thief though. Those combinations have historically been VERY successful, although they do cost more exp to level up.

I am thinking and balancing other ideas regarding the eternal popularity of dragons.
