This Starter Kit is designed for parents, educators, and brand-new Game Masters (GMs) who want to run tabletop roleplaying games (RPGs) for teens. Whether you're home-schooling, hosting a family game night, or guiding a youth group, this guide helps you get started with confidence, creativity, and zero overwhelm.

Here you will learn to use a standard five-act story structure using this easy-to-follow template to plot out a hero's journey for your players. In addition, you will understand how to help your players solve any mystery or reach a conclusion, by providing at least three clues. This rule helps prevent frustration and keeps players engaged and curious even if they miss something - which they will.

Later, there will be a quick checklist to help you prepare your adventure ahead of time, including a blank 5E compatible character sheet you will find at the back of this kit. If you are still on the fence, we show you the many educational benefits of RPGS that extend far beyond simply having fun with family and friends.

When you are ready to dive into your first experience, you will find a quirky one shot involving some "monkey business" at the end of this kit. Continue reading if you are ready for the adventure of a lifetime!
