So my current D&D game I'm playing a Human Swordsage, we're currently at lvl 6.
Through hibbity plot shenanigans (I have talked to my dm about this happening in the games distance future) My characters Celestial heritage is revealed, giving giving him the half-celestial template. When this happens, my dm want me to rebuild the character with the template including the +4 LA. The template is powerful, but I don't think that retroactively loosing character levels is the right way to do this considering you loose BAB, saves, skills, maneuvers known, readied, and stances known.
Seeing as how there are classes that gain templates with LA and don't retroactively loose class levels. As far as I can tell, if I a acquire this template I start being affected by the level adjustment at that point, leveling slower than the rest of the party and buying off the LA as I gain experience.
Playground, how do you think should this be handled.
