I pitched it originally because I noticed how few adults wanted to play with kids at their table at a local con.  It was unbelievable to me, because that's how I and pretty much everyone else I know learned to play — someone else taught them. Then one guy broke out his dragon storm deck and had some dozen plus kids captivated (and quite) instead of racing all over the gaming hall.  Note to con going parents: the gaming hall is not daycare so you can run off and listen to your favorite author.  Be a parent or don't.Yeah, I really like the backgrounds, so I'm not looking to get rid of that.Most of the time consuming parts of chargen seem to be copying down information.  So I've started working on some cheat sheets that make everything a bit more workable and abbreviated.  I'm thinking about color coding the character sheet and the cheats so that it is very clear what information goes where.  That should speed things up a bit.  I'm also going to have the library put together multiple copies of the basic rules book and maybe score a copy of the PHB (maybe two if the budget allows).  Between those and the cheat sheet, everyone should be good.  I might even have extra copies of the spell section printed out because that's the thing I can see constantly being referenced.Not going to play LFR. Instead, the setting is going to be a fantasy Romania with plenty of Ravenloft inspired gothic goodness, while still being dungeoncrawly.  Sorry, but FR is just not my cup of tea.  I thought about Greyhawk, but here I'm using a setting I've been wanting to use for years: the Epic of Ærth.Tom</blockquote>
