Ideas for my campaign

I’m DMing for the first time with this campaign and we’ve made it to the manor, but my party is not interested at all in making it into a tavern. They are very interested in 2 things:
- class warfare (one of my party members is an urchin who wants to stick it to the wealthy and the guilds?)
- creating a tavern bouncer academy

Yes, that second one is not a typo. They are at level 2 and given these…themes? I want to do one more session to get them to level 3 and kick off fireball. I have story ideas, but I’m struggling how to turn it into interactive session ideas. Here’s what I have so far:

- they have made enemies with the Zhents, so I’m thinking a wererat raid
- IF they decide to spare any of the were rats, they can recruit them into their bouncer academy. (There is one other NPC that I’m planning to bring back as well)
- something around the bouncer academy? This is where I’m getting stuck…I want them to do some work to make a curriculum but how do I gamify this? Is this a good idea?

They have kept in touch with Renear and have gotten in with Mirt and the Harpers. I tried to spin Lif into a Mother mirthkettle side quest, but since they have refused the tavern rehab, thats kinda died, but could get picked up again another way? Haven’t introduced the Bregan D’arthe or the Casselanters but could? My party is not great remembering all the factions so thats a factor. Let me know what you all think or what ideas you have!!
