I started playing Baldur's Gate after Big World Mega Mod, and in third area (Crossroads), since departuring from Candles Keep, I meet Eldoth the Bard. After joining with me he lost XP points. This is strange to me and I wan't to know is this supposed to happen, and why? After losing XP he was LVL 3 and my chars are all still LVL 1. Did this happen because he is much greater LVL than I am, and which LVL must I be to prevent the loss of his XP points?

This is a part of the "NPCs match player character's experience points" (or similar) component from the BG1NPC mod. If you take in a NPC with less experience than the main character the NPC gains some experience, if you take in a NPC with more exp he/she will lose some instead.
It happens only the first time you take them in anyway (so if you take in Eldoth, dump him, level up even 4 or 5 times and then take him in again, he won't gain any experience and won't match your new level).
All of the above must be considered totally IMHO.

Or the Level one NPCs.
PS: I bet you have about 2 000 experience points on your main char...

Ok guys that is what I needed to know. It's good to know that this will happen with all the NPCs I encounter. Thanks again.

Level1NPCs, yep - that component - and it will also work the other way, if you meet them at a higher level yourself! Any NPCs you changed will get this.

Ups, I must have switched BG1NPC and Level1NPC. My bad.
