Started by getting to know my wife's (solo player) motivations and goals. Used Session 0 Questions to structure the discussion. Swerved from traditional 5e D&D canon setting to Potterverse immediately as a much more palatable gateway for a diehard HP fan into D&D. Lighter, more whimsical tone became incredibly important.
Started creating Ellen as a player character. She soon began to form into a Magizoologist, like Newt Scamander, given my wife's love of animals both personally and professionally.
Settled on the time period of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, paired with Ilvermorny School of Witches and Wizards as the initial setting.
