It seems bad to give out a bunch of free unique items and completed relics on premade characters. I imagine a lot of people would end up using the new enchanter feature to strip the relics off their gear and then the caravan feature to transfer the relics and unique items to other characters.
Part of our assumption with the expansion was that people buying it who had played through the original game would already have existing characters to use in the expansion or, if they hadn't finished it, would be able to finish playing through the original game with the addition of the new expansion features. Even if you deleted Titan Quest, I believe your characters remain saved in your MyGames directory.
Unfortunately, even if we decided this was a good thing, we cannot add any new features or content to the expansion at this point.

Heh, I was just actually going to bring up the item problem with having this feature. You are correct, though I guess people could caravan their existing items over.
Most people will approach the expansion pretty much how you said it. Either a new character from scratch or using an existing one. It's just when playing the expansion for the first time, using your "elite" characters may make the first play too fast. We all know how fun the first play is.
Food for thought anyway. I guess the extra work of sorting it out would not be worth it in the end.
