[QUOTE="Karrde723, post: 2551573, member: 35837"] I have a bit of a problem. I've been playing in and running D&D games for quite a while now and recently a rather long running campaign has come to an end so I've decided to start up a campaign at first level and build up from there. As I've started preparing for this I have come to realize something. I have almost no experience with low level games. I played in a few level three campaigns when I was just starting, but I haven't DMed a game of lower than fifth level in my life, or played in a campaign lower than tenth in a year or two. So my question is, how do people begin? How do you kick off a campaign with a group who really has no reputation at all? How to you make encounters that are so low level build toward an epic adventure to save the world? And how do you kick off an adventure to begin with? I've recently just had important NPCs hireing the known heroes to do this epic quest for him but when the PCs are unknown, I can't do that. So I beseech the gods of the boards to impart to me the knowledge that I am so glaringly lacking, which is how to start. Karrde [/QUOTE]
