Next week, I’m going camping with my wife, my brother and his wife, and my 9-year-old niece… My brother asked if I’d prep a DnD game to play. My niece knows the basics and I’m modifying rules to make it easier for her, and I’m making a bunch of characters for them to choose from based on Gravity Falls characters.
I’m prepping A Wild Sheep Chase for playing out in the fresh air, but we have a chance of rain I’d like suggestions for another short adventure i can prep. The sillier the better!
You’re looking for a oneshot. (a dnd campaing meant to be short and completed in a single session.) The joy of oneshots is that your players are usually not particularly attached to the characters, so a TPK won’t necessarily piss everyone off, and you can ramp the difficulty some.
plenty of sources for free (and not free,) oneshots in a variety of the usual places.
DMsGuild has plenty that are free, or ‘pay what you want’ as a tip, if you feel so inclined.
Yea, Im a DnD vet. I’m definitely looking for a oneshot. But im looking for a silly, fun one that my 9-year-old niece might like.
how’s she feel about cats?
or maybe she’s more into doggos?
there’s also the 15 minute dnd set, which are a few oneshots in 15 minutes; more of your ‘normal’ dnd. has he advantage of being broken up.
That’s a fun-looking one and she loves cats. Lord Bitey even sounds like a Gravity Falls character.
