I do not think you can use more than one trial key on the same account. But your best bet might be to pose the question to Support.

Your characters are tied to your account. So merely adding a key to an existing account will not do anything to your characters.

But Darcy has a good point, you may only get to add one trial key to a particular account. Not sure if that is true, but wouldn't be surprised if that was the case.

Makes sence that multiple keys should not be applicable to one account, to keep the characters, one may have to purchase the actual campaign in an instance of the such.

Sorry to say but by adding the other trial key .you will not gain any extra time ect if thats what your thinking ie an extra 10 hours or whatever.
As it will not accept another trial key added to a buddy key as both are Trials

only buddy key is used in a diff term.

Just go out and buy the full compilation and add it to the existing trial.

The trial key as such is a taster to create a char in a campaign of choice

Cool cool. Thanks everyone for your help. But the part of my question that wasn't address (the most important part imo): after exhausting the nightfall trial to 00:00, and then I use the Factions/Prophecy trial (one at a time as you suggested), will the Factions/Prophecy trial delete the characters from the Nightfall trial? Or will the Nightfall characters retain, and simply become 'unplayable' till a full NF is bought?

Thanks for your prompt help everyone.

I think the general opinion is that adding the Prophecies/Factions trial key to your account won't do anything, i.e. you won't be able to access the game because you already used a trial key. Therefore, your characters will most likely still remain, you just won't be able to play them until you purchase an actual license.
