Family of Three - Never played before

Hi Adventurers!        We have never played a RPG before; I'm not even sure if we should be looking at Roll20 or somewhere that rubes and newb's are banished to :)  With corona-enforced free time, this seems like the perfect opportunity to learn.     The paying part is fine; are there any games run more like a "RPG 101 - Welcome to Adventuring" sort of thing?  

Hello! I think you'll be fine here, tho maybe include a bit about yourselves, what sort of game would spark your interest (Like... general fantasy like LotR, maybe Sci-fi? if you know a particular system, that'd help too) and when you would all be available to play. I can't guarantee I have something for you, but might make it easier to find some place to belong :)

Hey Kevin!&nbsp; I just posted a new game that is great for new players:&nbsp;&nbsp; <a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/204643/sword-coast-excursions" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/204643/sword-coast-excursions</a> We're starting with Lost Mines of Phandelver, which is an introductory adventure- the first one they published in 5e.&nbsp; Let me know if you're interested.&nbsp; You can send me a PM or apply in the listing. I'm more than happy to help you guys learn.&nbsp; Would be a blast!

Hey! I just DM as a hobby (I DM a game for some close friends, not charging of course, and I'm a player in another game myself), but depending on the time I could potentially run a session or two for you.&nbsp; A word of advice for you though regardless of who it is you decide to play with as your DM: DMs have different styles, some are better at this some are better at that. Different players will enjoy different DM styles more than others. Don't commit to a campaign (meaning, a game intended to last more than 2-3 sessions) without first playing a couple of self contained "one-shots" (games you can finish in one or two sessions tops) with that DM. Get a feel for how they DM, see if its something you and your family are enjoying, and then take up a longer form game with them. You don't want to finish chapter 3 of a book you thought sounded cool, then suddenly realise you don't like how the narrator is narrating and have to put the book down.

Thanks Barney!&nbsp; That's awesome advice!&nbsp;

Welcome to nerd-topia kevin if u cant find a dm let me know lots of us out here that would love to bring the fun of roleplay to ur family.&nbsp; I can run a Dungeon and dragons 5th edition game for yall easily.

Along with everyone else, let me welcome you, Kevin and family, to the world of ttrpgs!&nbsp; Hopefully you enjoy your stay and decide to stick around for years to come like the rest of us. Working with new players is something that I love to do.&nbsp; Not only do I get to share my love for these games with new people, oftentimes the fresh new look they bring into the game is more fun than what a group of veterans will do!&nbsp; I have had the opportunity to get many people started on this hobby, and many of them are people I still game with years later or have gone on to DM their own groups. I have a few different timeslots open, and would be happy to run a game for just you and your family.&nbsp; We can do a published introductory adventure like Lost Mines of Phandelver, or I can create a homebrew adventure just for you guys!&nbsp; If you are interested, check out the link below and see if it matches what you are looking for in a new rpg experience. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/8283702/lfp-5e-paid-wednesday-saturday-sunday-commissioned-character-artwork-included" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/8283702/lfp-5e-paid-wednesday-saturday-sunday-commissioned-character-artwork-included</a>
