[QUOTE="Just Another User, post: 3800539, member: 23516"] Or another possibilities is that the local menace need the intervention of the higher level NPCs while the global menace can be dealt with by the much lower level PCs, let's take his mage guild example, sure the high level wizards could dispatch the the evil cult in a wink, but while they do so the enemy country would invade and pillage their country, the world is safe but their country is booped, a raw deal for them,I'm sure you'd agree, so what they do is send a group of adventurers (of an appropriate level) to defeat the cult while they protect their nation, (something the PCs are not high level enugh to do efficiently) and everybody is happy. After all it is not like they aren't doing something for it, they sent you to solve the problem, didn't they? [/QUOTE]
