A day late, but here we are once more.

The theme/prompt starting off this years #RPGaDAY is ”Who would you like to introduce to RPGs?”

Gosh this is harder than you think, and its only day one!

There are so many ways you can answer this.

Do you go down that classic dinner party with anyone route? Do you pick people you know? Or maybe go for a more general catch all answer?

Obviously if anyone posts on the Fenland Gamers Facebook page or Discord server they want to try D&D (Usually the one most people are aware of and ask about) we try and accommodate by running a specific beginners taster session first.

One or two of my work colleagues have expressed an interest in trying RPGs. I’d love to run something for them. But there seems so many obstacles to overcome before that happens. The main ones being conflicting shifts, child care, and where to host.

I’d love to introduce my son Nathan to them too. I think he might enjoy them. But it would basically be a DM and single player (Nath), as we would only be playing when I visit. I know D&D can be played like this. But I’d much prefer a system that excels or is made to be played like this. So I need to do some research in this area.

I’ve not done the dinner party route. And despite answering the question I seem to have just listed why I can’t introduce them to RPGs. But that has to be a factor. Unfortunately I have a job that covers evenings and weekends. The times when the majority are free. Which does make things a bit harder. Life does have a habit of getting in the way.

But when it doesn’t I love introducing folks to RPGs.
