So, I've never been a dm before, but I kind of want to run a one shot with my friends to dip my toes into it. And I kind of have an idea for it, I'm just not entirely sure how to execute it.

My idea:

Rescuing a baby dragon. I want it to be framed as them rescuing a normal kid until they actually find the baby dragon, who was caught by poachers. And they'll have to fight the poachers to save the baby dragon.

So how would you go about it? Is this even a compelling oneshot idea? What tips do ya'll have for me as a first time dm?

Thank you!
