There are hundreds of hours of content there and answers to all of the questions you have asked . For a quick and dirty response to your questions Three players can work fine for a group . If the encounters are a bit challenging for them you can adjust the monster ' s HP and AC in combat . I would suggest against a DMPC Dungeon Master Player Character , if they need an NPC to help then have them meet an NPC and keep what it can do simple . Think like a Champion Fighter that just hits things . Leave the challenge as something that the players can overcome , don ' t overcome it for them . When they have to think about what they can use to solve a problem it ' s engaging them in the game . You want the players to be engaged in the game you are running . To run a fair game let them know it ' s your first time DMing and that you will make mistakes yes you will , it ' s ok . That ' s how we learn . You aren ' t trying to mess the game up and you aren ' t there to fight them , you are just there to run the game and all .
