I am completely new to D&D and purchased the essentials kit. Dragon of Icespire Peak adventure lists 4 races and 5 classes as character options. Do we need to stick to this list or can we create any characters from the players handbook and still do the adventure? Thanks!
You can make any character you want if DM allows it. The premade characters are there for new players who don't know how to make characters (so they can get into the game faster).

Thanks! I was worried we would get stuck during the adventure if we deviated from the character list provided.
