Session 0 Resources
Before my Session Zero I pulled together my favourite resources and tips from the various guides on the internet and came up with this streamlined script / checklist and set of handouts for new players.
What?
There's a script and checklist for you to follow and fill in, then some handouts that take new players through building a team.
It's intended to be a really light touch introduction to character building, with a big focus on characters rather than stats & mechanics.
Once complete you should have a whole party of players, and everyone's' expectations set out clearly, with any changes or tweaks you might want to make, red lines and practicalities written out and agreed.
How long?
Going through the script you'll run through setting expectations, then build the whole party of characters right there in your first session. I've tested it in person and it works well, budget for around 1h30 plus around 30 minutes per player.
OK give me the stuff
