10 Ways to Start a D&D Campaign

Описание: A lot of D&D campaigns start the same way.
You meet… at a tavern.
And while that works, it’s definitely not the only way to kick off a campaign.
In this episode of SCROLL OF IDEAS, I’m breaking down 10 different ways to start Session 1 in D&D — from prisons and executions to disasters, mysteries, and... Yeah maybe a tavern as well. MAYBE!

These campaign openings are designed to:
Get players roleplaying immediately
Give the party a reason to work together
Establish tone, danger, and stakes from the very first session
Aaaaand give more options then your usual start of campaigns, y'know?
Whether you’re a brand-new Dungeon Master or you’re starting your 50th campaign, these ideas are meant to be easy to adapt, player-friendly, and ready to use at the table.

Which campaign start is your favorite?
Let me know in the comments — and if you’ve got your own go-to Session 1 opening, I’d love to hear it!!
