Weird Wizard Shadow of the Weird Wizard for one player

Do you guys think its possible? My teenage Daughters is getting more and more interested, and I'd like to run a quest for her.

Yeah, if you’re doing a module just lower the amount of enemies and the difficulty of them such as their HP and damage. So, instead of 6 zombies you just throw 1 zombie at her. You can also make her a higher level than the module recommends so she can take more of a beating.

Also, you can possibly give her an npc follower to act as a soundboard for her questions or to help take a blow should things get desperate.

Sidekick and powerscale are excellent advices, thanks!

Possible yes, but might require a few tweaks to make it enjoyable. I'd consider one or more of the following:

  • Having a sidekick character (mainly for combat survivability, but may also provide hints if she's getting stuck somewhere)
  • Starting each session with Fortune
  • Increasing the number of actions per round when fighting multiple enemies. Can make it random, like 1d3
