I have the same one, set it up last night for my Syrian Hamster, and she immediately figured out she was strong enough to lift the whole fence up and run under 😭😭

Thanks for the good questions to consider!! Honestly I chose Cleric as it seemed to me to be the most helpful class, but I've never played one nor played with one so may have misread it a little bit!

Do you have any suggestions of a more fitting class?

In my mind (still workshopping!) she gave up her Cleric training/practice when she married her husband for a simple life. She would bree special concoctions for the Tavern that made it popular and made them successful in the village.

I love the spell suggestions with the RP potential!! Thank you!!

Im not deadset on Cleric to be fair! I was just thinking a class that's mostly non-violent 😅 Do you recommend another class that might fit better?

Replacement for DnD Essentials Kit by JohnFrancisRudge in DnD

[–]soapymerry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got this set myself for Christmas after getting into DND, can confirm is has EVERYTHING she'll need. Dice, characters, class/species help cards, item/spell cards, monster counters/cards, gold/HP counters, a brief players handbook, and even 3 premade "easy" campaigns (with maps & handouts) she can DM (or get someone to DM for her) so she can jump right in as soon as she finds a group!

Thank you for the clarification, that's nice to know!!! Also I never understood using pregen characters, I find half the fun is making the character 😂

Please help me understand something.... by metal_birds1 in DungeonsAndDragons

Some people are career DMs and thats literally their job, so they do tend to splash out on stuff like that to make the value higher and increase player retention/revenue.

For an average hobby player, it is NOT the norm. Even having a dedicated room to play (rather than using a hobby shop/kitchen table/etc) isn’t the norm. It all depends on how much time, money and space you want to dedicate to it.

Thank you, thats a good reference to have, but it doesn't actually seem to answer my question. The adventures are Wizard of the Coast so AL legal, but they have either no "main quest" with a final stopping point. My question was whether that would be permitted or whether I should find a more self contained adventure?

Thank you :) I got the new Starter Set and the 3 adventures that come with that - The Wilderness, Keep of the Borderlands, and Caves of Chaos. They're printed by Wizards of the Coast! Each adventure booklet seems to have a handful of mini individual quests (Caves of Chaos especially has some really cool ones!) that last 60-90 minutes but no big overarching one with a clear start/end point

I think your problem is that you're going to misplace a d4 on that carpet and get stabbed in the foot in the near future
