I was mostly joking about her ACTUALLY being THE Liberator. Just a fun idea, but as you've pointed out, no good way to make it be so starting from first level. All I can do currently is set her up to where she'd be a possible candidate for being the Liberator and go from there. But if I'm still playing her at level 20 then the levels better progress faster here than in LEW, because otherwise I'll be dying of old age!
I've always liked the idea of seeing the time of the Liberator come to pass though, and maybe in this world that can happen eventually. I don't think I'd even make her kicker "hunted by Illithids" because that implies a reason for them to be hunting her beyond the ordinary. Of course, we don't even know for sure yet if we are actually using 'kickers' (unless that was decided and I missed it). Although it would still be part of character backround/origin even if there isn't a 'kicker' mechanic.
And yet another word from our sponsors
