Im running a one shot for a different group to try and re-introduce them into dnd. They were my first group but there were some problems due to we never had time anymore that the group broke up. I now am running a 4 hour one shot and need it tailored to their play-style. This group is quite hard to run for as they play in a very interesting way. Note: I already have multiple ideas, just seeing if anyone had so better ideas.
The requirement due to their play style:
Not character rp: My players will role play with my npcs, but they don't feel comfortable with role playing with each other.
Clear story: My players won't investigate much, they want the plot to hit them in the face.
Big reason for a group of adventures to take the mission: I can say it now, their characters will not be good people. They want money and stuff.
Not just a dungeon crawl: They do like a bit of story
A chill style: When that group plays dnd its just us hanging out and doing some stuff. Usually not my cup of tea but it is a good break from my main groups intense focus. We want to have fun, things that get in our way of that are remove, npcs should be intresting and make a good joke. (Note: Your ideas don't need to worry about this, I can make it happen)
I need to have fun: This is the main reason the group broke up. I no longer was having it with their type of playing. The story needs elements that I can control and keep the story on track. I can't tell them, Kill random dude in dungeon because he has cut off the water supply, because they will wander around and do nothing.
Thanks for any ideas.
