About the adventure
This is an introductory session of D&D. The players will learn about the basics of the game, build new characters together, and have a small session to experience the basics of the rules. If you know nothing about D&D but you want to learn all about it, this is the place to start! The introductory game will include the first part of the Lost Mines of Phandelver adventure.

Additional Details
How to prepare
This game can be played either in person, or online through Roll20.net and Discord. If we are planning to play in person, then the players should bring pencils and erasers, and some spare pieces of paper for notes. Alternatively, they can bring a device that gives them access to DnDBeyond.com. They can bring their own set of dice if they would like, but it is not required. If we are playing online, they need to have an account for both Roll20.net & Discord (A free account for each is all that is required, both can be used on a browser). They also must have a microphone for voice chat. A webcam for video is optional.
What I provide
I will be supplying the necessary books and blank character sheets for character creation. For both the in-person and online games, I will provide the maps and story for the introductory adventure.
Gameplay details
Characters will explore a fantasy city looking for a lost person. They will run into gangs of criminals and get caught in the cross fire between waring factions. This game will include digital X cards and discuss Line's and Veils at the beginning of the session.
