Hi lemmings,

I've been asked to do DM a D&D introduction one-shot at work. I work in IT, and there are - as expected - a few nerds who are interested in dipping their toes in the warm TTRPG waters.

I've already run "The Wild Sheep Chase" (revised to be compatible with level 1 characters) in the past, to great success. But they want more!

Have you run short 2-3 hour one-shot adventures? Care to share them with me? I'm not against shopping around on the DM's Guild either, but there's ALOT. So I figured I could ask you guys to give me some pointers!

The first part of Lost Mines of Phandelver can be a quite fun introduction to DnD! Just add a traveling salesman or fortune teller to the road in front of the goblin cave and Bob's your uncle!

Sooo deadly tho. But I might think on this. I've got some kobold minis I just painted that could be used instead of the goblins. Thanks for the idea!

Have you DM'ed before? Besides the other oneshot?

Oh yes. I've run the Lost Mines, Hoard of the dragon queen, Descend into Avernus, and some homebrew quests. I'll be starting Rise of Tiamat next month.
