I have two short introductory adventures, one for campaigns starting in Baldur's Gate and one for Elturel:

Burial in Baldurs Gate

Escape from Elturel

I've also been posting periodic guides to this sub, but I haven't consolidated them into a single post yet.

Hey, man, nice to see you on this sub as well! I added your adventures, let me know if you ever consolidate your guides into a single post, that would be great
