Guest players can be cool as long as the regulars are welcoming or know them. You can give each guest a piece of lore that makes sense to their character that may or may not give the party an advantage on their mission.
Good session's 👍. For dual wielding, it uses the bonus action for the extra att and if you are Not skilled in dual wielding the second attack is at disadvantage and if you're not proficient in the weapon they are dual wielding they would not use the proficiency bonus on the role, and I might also add a -2 to -5 dependent on the weapon they're un-proficient in, either on the attack roll or as a bonus to the AC of the creature their attacking, depending on the players ability to do maths,😂,that's just something I do. As far as for your scroll question, 'I' now keep it very simple, I don't bother with them having to roll a skill check to see if they learn a Spell, after all the other classes don't have to roll to learn their new abilities or skills so I just say it's 10GP cost to scribe a cantrip scroll into your spell book and 25 GP x by the level of the spell on a scroll to cover magical material cost. As I don't think it's a fun part of the game... Oh you didn't get the roll.. oh well you didn't copy that spell and the materials is now expended... Not fun. As for people wanting to join in for one or two sessions, if they're used to creating characters I'd let them create characters up but if they're not I would have ones ready for them to run, simplified characters with the basics needed info. Kinda like a monster stat block but on a character sheet. Unless you want to go into greater detail. But that just my take on it.
@@Noob_DnD_Dad Oh there was a series of fantasy novels in the early 80s set in the world of Xanth, by Piers Anthony. It's a somewhat funny series, Xanth is based on Florida (at least geographically) and based entirely on puns. One of the early books was named Centaur Aisle
As far as duel wilding goes on page 195 of the players handbook it has the stipulations but anyone can fight with two weapons they do not get to add the ability modifier to the off hand attack or bonus action attack. Unless they have the ability of a fighter pg. 72 or the feat on pg. 165. Now you are correct scrolls are expendable and in the Dungeon Masters Guide on pg 200 and 201 it says the copier needs to succeed on an Arcana check with a DC of 10 +the spells level. In the case of a cantrip that would be a plus zero. If they succeed it is copied and if not it is not copied but in either case the scroll is destroyed.

Nice! Thank you very much for your input and feedback. Also thanks for watching! See you soon.
Xanth! that's awesome. Brings me back to reading those novels as a teen.
Wo is he from somewhere? Is this an Easter egg!? That's just what the manual called him. That's so cool.

@shadomain7918 amazing. Thanks for sharing
I might have to see if I can find that at my local used book store. Sounds like a good read!
