1) Treasure Hunt allowed 0 level types to earn 500 XP, then become 1st level. Did that ever become standard? It's a little like the 0 level Cavalier starting at -500 XP (or was it -1,500 XP?).
2) Did they ever create rules for an official O level Cleric or a 0 Level Druid (the blacksmith in Hommlet is a 0 level Druid, IIRC)?
I always used Men-at-arms w/4-7hp (1d10) and 3 weapon proficiencies as "0 level Fighters).
The middle-aged adept of Phyton did well with his long-deceased parents’ land is a newlywed, and carries on his father and grandfather’s role as an adept of Phyton for [insert village name here]. He genuinely enjoys gardening. Normally, he only leaves the farm or shrine if seeing a member of his flock. Since his grandfather’s time, the adepts have tried to get a fully trained cleric/priest for the village, but they’re still waiting...

AD&D1: 0 level Cleric (-242 XP; will not make 1st level until long after CY 591): HD 1d6+0; hp 6, AL NG (CG); Str 12, Dex 11, Con 13, Int 12, Wis 12, Cha 10, Com 10.

The original AD&D1 DMG had a skill list instead of proficiencies, which were introduced with the Wilderness Survival Guide and the Dungeoneer's Survival Guide. They basically meant the same thing, but it was more codified with proficiencies.
There are 0 level scenarios in the GREYHAWK ADVENTURES book. I believe it gives different XP requirements than N1. I also recall that it's all optional. I think the only non-optional "rule" was for the Cavalier in UNEARTHED ARCANA.

-DM Prata (above mentioned the XP needed for 0 level MUs (apprentices).
I eventually used a combination of N4 Treasure Hunt and UA rules for making 1st level through experience and GA for training your way up. That way all those hirelings, followers, and locals could get promoted from red shirt to mauve shirt. [/i]
-Now that you mention it, where does the 2,000 XP for 0 level MUs/Illusionists come from? I may have seen it in a Dragon.
Unearthed Arcana, p. 45
-Is that in the section under Cantrips?
So presumably, a 0 level MU/Illusionist would be an apprentice with the ability to cast cantrips, but not 1st level spells. That might make an interesting curiosity to introduce to my players' party at one point, a 0 level illusionist or something.
