For example, if the lv 1 PCs meet a lv 10 Cleric, by the time the PCs are lv 10, is the Cleric still lv 10?
It makes sense that the Cleric would also have gained a few levels, so maybe he's now a lv 14 or higher.
What about monsters? If they hear about a powerful dragon - adult red dragon - inhabitting a cave nearby, and go try to kill it at lv 10 and barely escape. They go back at lv 17, is the dragon still the same dragon, or did he get a few levels in Sorcerer? Or maybe, other adventurers managed to kill it first, and they find an empty cave, or even one with different creatures inside.
Or would the powerful dragon be nerfed to a young adult, so that the PCs actually have a chance?
What happens if the champion of an olympic-esque game is high level character that is constantly training to become better? Can the PCs ever hope to beat him, or is he going to keep on getting levels along with the PCs?
