About the adventure
This game is built for new players as a learning experience. There is no stress and no expectation other than a good attitude and wanting to have fun. This is to teach players character building, rule and giving them a chance to role play in a stress free environment. In the late 15th century DR, Phandalin was a modest and architecturally boring town of hard-working frontiersfolk built atop the ruins of the old Phandalin.The town quickly grew to about fifty well-maintained structures built of logs and flagstones with three deep wells providing water. The town was dominated by an apple orchard on the west side and a ruined manor atop a hill to the east. The townsfolk would congregate in a small town square and an adjacent town green

About me
Long time player of over 10 Years with multiple years of running games from different genres and playstyles. Really big on character building and helping people understand the choices they are making to realize the image of their OC. I love building story lines and making moments for players and getting to see the joy on their face. Personally I like overcoming challenges in and out of combat and sharing these victories with others.

Creating your character
We will go through character creation in a session 0 together. I will assist and explain from step one. Having read the players guide will be helpful but there is no expectation for you to have understood the entire process.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
The only things you need is access to a discord. You may need access to a computer for a VTT of some sort later in the sessions. We will start with theater of the mind first.
What Arzel brings to the table
I am a rule of cool DM but will stick closer to the rules as written to start out as players learn. I will create story lines for your characters and create moments to give people a chance to roleplay and bring out their characters. Combat will play out as a combo of theater of the mind and map based.
Homebrew rules
As this is a learn to play any home brew rules will be covered while playing.
