As the title says, mostly. But a bit of explanation.
Party wilk consist of three to four players, that never ever played D&D. One of them played a different setting once, maybe three sessions in total. I never DMed a D&D game myself, akthalth have some experience with running RP events in MMOs, so am hopeful.
I sat down today and wrote down a few characters for my players, because Beyond lacks the premade ones. Standard array style. Not a big deal. But I wanted to ask for your advice. Here's the list:
1. Human Life Cleric: 14 10 14 8 16 12 with War Caster feat
Most/All of them have some background story about the campaign already built in.
I checked the story hooks and want to add them to the characters they pick. Want to make them pull the hooks from cards, so it's more varied. But on the other hand one player already wanted to play a druid, and I thought it would be mean to let someone play a class outside of the box and force others to pick from the premades. Hmm... Maybe a Half Elf Archfey Warlock as last.

5. Tiefling Bard: 8 15 12 14 10 16
6. Forest Gnome Wizard: 8 15 12 16 14 10
7. Lightfoot Halfling Rogue: 10 17 14 8 14 12
8. Wood Elf Druid: 10 16 12 13 16 8
My question is, is that a varied enough of a choice? I could add a halfelf sorcerer I guess.
On a side note, any advice for the first goblin cave?
9. Ghostwise Halfling Ranger: 10 16 12 13 16 8
half orc barbarian please! maybe a human ranger, instead of the ghostwise, it's a little exotic for premades.
goblin cave advice: understand one thing... the players will not do anything that you planned or expected... go with it, be flexible and have fun!
Jesus Saves!... Everyone else takes damage.

Human Ranger sounds interesting. Also forgot about the Barbarian. Thanks for the good advice.
