I cant seem to find the new spells added

Some feedback on the digital content. 

The character sheets need a grey scale version. I understand the yellow is the color of the character sheets from that specific version, but when you try to print in black and white. It waste ink trying making the page background grey. I know the character sheets can be downloaded as a PDF from the beyond character page, but the layout offered in this adventure set is more approachable to new players. I also don't think everyone knows that's an option. I'm someone that prints character sheets and laminates them for new players because mistakes will be made and I can reuse them indefinitely since they can be written on with a dry erase marker. 

A "download all"  PDF button would also be appreciated, but that's definitely more of a "nice to have" feature request. 

Isn't it good that you other DnD players can stop playing this game since all you do is complaining & all that in these comments🤔like EVERY post which I've seen in here only that. Stop playing DnD and play something else you like. Like monopoly or something PLEASE.

This is interesting, but I run campaigns for my 13-year-old sister and younger brother. Is something based off of Stranger Things going to be appropriate? I've heard of the show bu t never seen it.

I doubt there is any possible way to answer your question, because it all depends on what a person deems to be appropriate, and second, whether the individual child in question can handle emotional and moral challenges.

This content is framed as being D&D as it was in the 1980s (mostly first edition look and feel).  That said, there is no indication in my review that some of the more sensitive and I suppose "politically incorrect" content appears in this adventure.  Personally, I like my real life to be sensitive and devoid of causing anyone distress, but I do not want my fantasy world to be that way. D&D has always contained things like demons, necromancy, medieval style civilization themes like slavery, the oppression of classes, races, or groups of humanoids and other beings, because quite frankly, that illustrates exactly why heroes are necessary in the first place! 

If I had a 13-year-old child, I would encourage them to explore these dark and mysterious fantasy worlds, and to engage in critical thought and act with moral clarity about how to respond to it. How does one collaborate with others to achieve positive goals? How does one make difficult moral decisions when the world around them has so little kindness? What do you decide to do in a bad situation where there are no bright lines to guide you? How do you handle loss? How do you bounce back from difficulties and setbacks? (etc.)

With all of that being said, I would change my feelings about this, if I felt that a specific child could not handle these challenging themes. I would argue that for 90% of the young people I meet, roleplay like this is an enormously positive experience to share with friends, but I completely acknowledge that this is not and cannot be a universal truth. 

You know your sister better than anyone else does. Is she a strong person? Does she show signs of being able to respond to moral or ethical problems in a constructive way? If she is not emotionally capable of this just yet, then just about old school or OSR style D&D content would not be appropriate. Instead there are plenty of light-hearted and gentle adventures cast in worlds that offer some of the same intellectual and moral challenges, but in a low-stakes setting. 

I really do hope my thoughts are useful. :-)

 This is useful, thank you. A large part of my concern was simply how many of the more recent movies/shows like to make references or show how children are made, which is NOT -in my opinion- appropriate for a 13-year-old.

 I am glad to hear it!  I suspect you are well-equipped to run this (or any) module while keeping these considerations in mind.  It could prove challenging to describe a medieval Tavern with bar wenches serving drinks to randy dwarves, but you will find a way to do it. :-)  

this might be a different campaign

I really want this it sounds so cool
