Episode description

Show Notes:

This week, Fiona and guest cohost Ty from Side Character Quest discuss how to run D&D sessions for a single player, using the supplement 'First Blush' - an introductory adventure by Jonathan and Beth Ball from D&D Duet - as an example.

Side Character Quest (SCQ) is an anthology of improvised fantasy adventures. In each short quest, the show's host takes a single guest player on a journey through a larger shared world. Check out Side Character Quest available on all good podcast providers!

From the 'First Blush' bio:

'Start your own duet campaign! Teleport your way out of the confines of a castle to an ancient mountainside cavern with a secret waiting just for you...

First Blush is the inaugural adventure of D&D Duet, bringing you high-quality, ready-to-play material focused on supporting adventuring parties of 1 Player and 1 DM.

This adventure is written for a first-level character in a one-on-one 5th edition D&D campaign. It encourages collaborative storytelling between the DM and the player and takes the PC through low-stakes social and combat encounters, culminating in high-stakes combat far from home.

You’ll find everything you need to jump-start your own two-person game! Our newest update includes two sidekick characters and stat blocks as well as DM's notes throughout to help with running a duet campaign.'

Supplement discussed: 'First Blush' - an introductory adventure by Jonathan and Beth Ball from D&D Duet

Additional mentions: 'Starcrossed' by Alex Roberts and published by Bully Pulpit Games.
