DM Help /u/Poison__Luna DnD: Roll for Initiative!

Hi all! Going to try my hand as a first-time ever DM for a one-shot my group has coming up. I’ve got the storyline and encounters mapped out, but needed some advice on how to balance encounters. Wanted to find that sweet spot where it’s not too easy or too difficult. I want my players to have a challenge but don’t want to kill them all off. Any advice would be appreciated! 💜
