How into Greyhawk are we going to be? Like, is the Free City the name, or The Free City of Greyhawk?
Shayuri: I've got a Ranger who doesn't much care for Undead. He's ambitious, and sees it as a difficult challenge. As soon as he discovered how dangerous they were (ghouls slew his retainers while they were traveling) he dedicated himself to slaying them, and wants to take out powerful undead; path to legend.
However, if we're in the same group we could know each other. The Undead side of things will come up eventually. And he's going to be a wizard/Eldritch Knight, so we've got the Arcane thing in common.
I don't know if the DM has a particular plan, but if not maybe my EK discovered you when the Ghouls attacked him, and got you out of there as the Undeath taint was overcoming you.
I can see him fascinated by the transformation, and as his family is fantastically wealthy (nobles in elven kingdoms; don't worry, he's left that behind, money-wise, wanting to make it on his own for a while), he's easily charitable: sees a guy attacked by the Undead, slays them, takes the guy to an Inn and nurses him back to health.
Or maybe we've met later.

And then the usual stuff: spellbook and components, I suppose, as he's studying the arcane for later. And rope, always need rope, and the basic adventuring tools.
