A low-level characther meets A Celestial Lord

[Bartmanhomer]

How can a low-level characther meets a celestial lord? (For example a level 1 wizard meets Erathaol the Seer!)

Plot hook for a first-to-epic long-term campaign?

I think that's mostly a DM choice thing.

 

[fafhrd]

What's the wizard's alignment?

 

[Bartmanhomer]

The wizard is Netural Good.

 

[Michael Silverbane]

For one character to meet another character, they generally only have to be in the same place at the same time. If you (fred the first level) desire to meet someone, then you should find out where they are, and go there.

Ok. Well what if "Fred" somehow fell at the cliff by accident and Erathaol The Seer saved Fred life in some way? Does that count?

 

[fafhrd]

Discounting the curious circumstances needed for one to fall at the cliff, it all depends on whether "Fred" and the wizard in question are the same person. Assuming that they are, the most important detail is whether the two exchange names and pleasantries after the rescue.

 

[Bartmanhomer]

Ok, that makes sense! Thank you fafhrd!

 

[fafhrd]

My pleasure. Truly

Possibly Erathaol the Seer might see that saving the life of one person is critical to the future. Possibly the low level hero has a destiny, or is the descendant of a legendary hero.

One possibility for a campaign might be to gather a party where various powerful figures have intervened in the lives of the PCs for some greater purpose. Of course, there may be other powerful figures backing up the PC's foes.
