Of course we will be sticking to Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition 2014 unless we need to break up into two groups since my maximum player amount will be 6-7 player characters and yours truly as the Dungeon Master.
After the players complete the Lost Mines of Phandelver or get the hang of adventuring they will delve into the Dungeon of the Mad Mage.
I have 8 pre generated characters to choose from:
Human Fighter with Great Axe - Tank and DPS
Human Fighter with Longbow - Range and DPS
Halfling Rogue with Short sword - Sabotage and sneak attacks
High Elf Wizard - Your typical Wizard with access to all the wizardry spells
Hill Dwarf Life Cleric - Party Healer and Divine attacker
Drow Bard - Party Healer, party healer and Support
Half- Orc Paladin - Tank, party face and makeshift healer
Aasimar Great Old One Warlock - Battlefield control and blaster
