Away for a Month, Adventure Ideas?

[Silmarillius]

I'm off for work for about a month, and I need some adventures preferably for players who have never played, well, a roleplaying game.

I'm considering running it in either Greyhawk or Forgotten Realms, so, any adventure will do.

Thanks...

Six a.m. is a rough time to post here.

If you're looking for adventures for new players, I'd take a look at Goodman Games' The Adventure Begins book, if you have the room in your budget. It's 20 short level 1 adventures in a wide variety of settings, from urban to seaside to desert to traditional dungeon environment.

I also recommend The Dragonfiend Pact from Goodman for level 2 or 3 characters.

At a higher level, The Red Hand of Doom is pretty universally beloved and very cinematic, but the midlevel action might be a steeper learning curve for new players.

If you're looking for PDF adventures, take a look at Adventure I from AEG on RPGNow. It's a book of short 20 adventures for a variety of lower levels. I won't claim they're pinnacles of art, but then again I've never found a pre-gen module that I thought was the pinnacle of art. Some of the adventures are a bit off, such as wrong ECL on some encounters and maps with no "North" marked on them, but they're a pretty decent value.

There is a second book, "Adventure II", but I haven't read any of those.

You can also check out the WoTC site. They have a number of adventures for download in PDF format.

Thanks, budget is kind of down the toilet, but I believe I'll have enough time to write some first level adventure concepts. Mostly just to keep my mind occupied to prevent further insanity. Again, thank you kindly.

Why not just check out the free adventures on the Wotc website? I guess it's been mentioned, but it's worth re-iterating. Some of them are pretty good, too.
