I have a lot of new players about to join my 4e campaign and I want them to get a taste for role-playing before they get into the roll-playing learning curve of first time D&D players.Since they are Zombie survival horror fans (movies, TV, board, and video games) that seems to be an easy transition for them <G>.As for using Dread in my D&D campaign I think I have the answer for my game. I am going to setup a Dread scenario involving an underground temple and a demonic cult that must be stopped. Have everyone answer questions about their hero and then game it out. When we complete the Dread scenario I will say, "You wake in a cold sweat in your tents after having a most vivid nightmare about the forgotten temple that you have been helping excavate." Welcome to a new day and it's time to crack the entrance you help dig out.What they find inside will be influence by what they did or did not do in the Dread scenario and now the PCs will have a connection to the back story and the BBEV they encounter in the boss battle.Thank you all who have contributed to this thread. It has been a joyful to see the excitement people feel for this game.</blockquote>
