Thank you so much! That’s exactly why I do what I do, the more DMs out there the more awesome games for everyon!

Just be careful those who aren’t interested don’t ruin it for those who are! Keep us posted on how your game goes, I’m super curious!!!

Oh wow so 7 players total, that’s quite a bit, especially for a first-time DM, I usually don’t recommend more than 5. I pick 5 because if one player bails then you have 4 which to me is the perfect number! Having a ton of players can really draw out fights and for social encounters can leave people out of the limelight.

DMing can certainly be a lot of work but it’s real rewarding and hey guess what If your players love it you can always use any of these resources for future sessions!

100% agree that balancing encounters can be difficult! One tip is that you can take a look at other One-Shots/Adventures that are already balanced and around the level you’re looking for and use those!

There are different people in each community, wouldn’t I want to reach the largest audience possible? I may be confused, but isn’t this similar to Reddit in the sense that each of them are subreddits and different from each other?

Thank you for the kind words, always happy to help!!!
