I was thinking of running Death in Freeport as a solo adventure for my girlfriend. This will be her first time playing D&D (or any RPG for that matter) other than an email game or CRPG.
Is this doable? I've only skimmed through it, so I'm not sure how much I'd have to change. Right off the bat, I know I'll have to weaken the opponents (one is CR4, frex).
How tough is the puzzle aspect. Is it something that will give a newbie a rough time? From what I read, I don't think she'll have a problem, but IME adventures where the PCs have to figure stuff out are always a heck of a lot easier with other players to bounce ideas off of.
Any suggestions on how to scale back the encounters? I was thinking of adding an NPC, but I don't want her to feel like the NPC is running the show or anything like that.
I was also thinking about NeMoren's vault, but that seems more combat oriented.
Any other suggestions for solo mods?
Edit: Me spell bad at 2am
