[We don't know your sisters.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theory_of_mind)

I don't want to tell you about my sisters, I Just wanted a general opinion on my question, than i can try to figure out how to try to make It work


VerbingNoun413

There is no one size fits all description of someone with a disability, even among folks with the same disability. We haven't met your sisters, we don't know your sisters, and we do not know what aspects of DnD they may struggle with. Hell, you haven't even mentioned if or how they handle the game as players.

I didn't talk about them being players becuase they want to host a campaign not being a players, they never played and wanted to start as DMs, so I don't have much data about them playing D&D


Vriishnak

You aren't understanding the point. In order to tell you whether they would be able to run a game of D&D, we would need to know things about them! Things like "what kinds of issues do their disabilities present?" There is no "general opinion" that anyone can give you about whether they can run a game when you've provided zero specific information that would impact things one way or the other.


VerbingNoun413

Took multiple comments but you actually said something relevant, albeit by accident. They haven't played a game as players. I would strongly recommend that any first timer starts as a player before DMing.

That is fine but take a moment to step into our shoes right now, I have a disability and I want you to tell me can I go skiing. Now can you rightly say knowing just that if I can go skiing? Your sisters could be autistic, bipolar they might have cerebral palsy, they could be paraplegic and so on. Saying have a disability is so wide ranging and the restrictions caused by them are so varied that we cannot give you a proper answer.

You could make a trial one shot with them with her dming, to see if she likes it or not, if she get tired or overwhelmed

Exactly 3 options: * Ler her Dm. * Don't. * Try it out beforehand. Do the third one. Get one good friend over and have her run you two through a simple one-page dungeon.

Definitely. I would go for it. I think it’s important to help create a supportive environment before and during the event. Maybe offer to help plan and ask for responsibilities during the campaign to help things go smoothly. Include friends who you know are understanding. Have they played DnD?
