[QUOTE="Wolfpack48, post: 9314002, member: 6872648"] This is your perfect opportunity to totally railroad the party!! :ROFLMAO: Jk, but only halfway. Look for some good published adventures that are a bit "on rails." It sounds like your group is on board for more of the rollercoaster ride and perhaps just one shots. There's a number out there folks can probably suggest, but ones where the group is dropped into the adventure [I]in media res[/I] might be in their wheelhouse. I might also suggest Call of Cthulhu if they are more inclined to settings in the modern day. Sometimes it's hard for folks to imagine otherworldly settings if they are not into the genres. [I]Horror on the Orient Expres[/I]s might be a good campaign, and is quite literally a train. :p For D&D 5e, [I]Curse of Strahd[/I], [I]Lost Mines of Phandelver [/I]and [I]Dragon Heist[/I] are some of the more linear adventures. They might be fine with pregen characters too if they don't want to create their own. Maybe after some time, they'll get on board with backstories, but they need to get some experience first.
