That way the halfling monk knows all about halflings and all about monks, without paging through the PHB. Knowing what is coming at the next level might also make them more interested in sticking with the game.Minis usually go over well with new players. They are used to seeing an avatar of their character thanks to videogames and this can help them visualize what is happening. Try to make some 1 inch grid maps and get some minis for NPCs and you can really have things come alive.A little hand holding will probably be necessary. New player may need a little railroading and will probably take a little longer to "get in-character".Finally, be ready to roll with their play style. It will probably be different from your other group, so roll with the punches and throw them into situations they find fun.</blockquote>
