The supernatural aide is a protective figure who provides the hero with weapons and advice. They personify destiny and are outside of the hero’s control, pulling the hero into the adventure. These helpers are otherworldly, wise, and guide the hero throughout their journey. They are benign. Here are some examples: Obi Wan Kenobi (Star Wars), Galadriel, Gandalf, and Bilbo (Lord of the Rings), Virgil (The Divine Comedy), Hermes and Athena (Perseus), Father Christmas (The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe), Merlin and the Lady of the Lake (King Arthur), and the Hospitaler (Kingdom of Heaven). In my story, there will be supernatural aid.
