The next thing you should do is create an entrance of your hero in experiencelevels.ini. Right now your hero is level 0 and there's no leveling up for him, so he should have one of those. To achieve it, you can copy any other hero entrance and change it a bit; however make sure to add the new upgrades in the corresponding levels. What I mean is that, every time your hero levels up he recieves upgrades. Since we are doing things somewhat different to the normal use, we will "extra" upgrades, the ones it will be required for your hero to get the propper leveling up. In the end, the entrance of your hero should look like this:

Notice how the hero recieves the upgrades that we added a couple steps before to the upgrade.ini file. If at any point you reference an upgrade which isn't in the upgrade.ini file, the game will crash. Also, you can change the exp_needed and the exp_award to any other hero of the game, just replace BORMIR_LVL with ARAGORN_LVL or whatever other hero you want (make sure not to change the actual Boromir stats)
