I am a DM looking for one
player (to bring us back up to five active players) for the last leg of Waterdeep: Dragon Heist , Sundays from 1-4pm EDT (5-8pmUTC). I expect the campaign to last another 1-3 months. Check out the LFG listing here
About
Me:
I have over ten years of
DM experience overall, and I've spent the last five years on a
long-form D&D3.5 campaign, plus various one-shots, adventures, and
modules sprinkled throughout. Most of my time has been spent in D&D
3.5, but I also have plenty of experience with D&D 5e and
Pathfinder. I have worked with both newcomers and veterans, and have
helped a good many new players figure out and become comfortable with
the rules. I emphasize the group-storytelling aspect of tabletop:
I'm here to help the party tell their story, and look good
while they do it.
The
Campaign:
This is a
campaign that generally following the main story beats of the
Waterdeep: Dragon Heist adventure module, which I have run before. There are expansions,
additions, and improvisations to exactly how it goes, to better suit
group interests.
So what is Waterdeep: Dragon Heist? From the official roll20 blurb for the book: WELCOME TO WATERDEEP! A fantastic treasure trove is yours for the taking in this adventure for the world's greatest roleplaying game. Famed explorer Volothamp Geddarm needs you to complete a simple
quest. Thus begins a mad romp through the wards of Waterdeep as you
uncover a villainous plot involving some of the city’s most influential
figures. A grand urban caper awaits you. Pit your skill and bravado against
villains the likes of which you’ve never faced before, and let the
dragon hunt begin!
Expect lots of RP, interactions with NPCs, investigation, and indoors action, as everything takes place within the city of Waterdeep. Currently: The players are at level six. We're into chapter four of five. The intrigue is building to a critical
level, and the full web of what's going down is beginning to take shape
for the party. I expect the campaign to last another 1-3 months.
Schedule:
We meet once
per week, Sunday from 1-4PM EDT (5-8UTC). Sessions are three
hours long, with a five-minute-or-so break in the middle of each.
Rules
and Expectations:
We use Discord for voice
communication. Video will NOT
be expected of the players.

friendly. There will be zero tolerance for sexism, racism, homophobia,
transphobia, ableism, and other forms of bigotry.
Players of any level of experience are
welcome. Whether you've been playing since AD&D or this is your
first foray into tabletop, you are welcome to join this campaign.
Just be ready and able to invest yourself and try. I will
accommodate for newer or less-experienced players, to help get them
caught up.
No homebrew content will be allowed for
character creation. All official WotC content will be allowed. This
includes Unearthed Arcana content, with the caveat: all UA content
must be checked with the DM ahead of time.
Engage. Tell me,

this campaign and world. Help us all, as a group, to tell a
meaningful story.
Regular
attendance will be expected. I respect that sometimes life happens,
especially in the current ongoing global pandemic situation. Sometimes sessions will be missed. This is okay.
However, this is a paid group activity wherein your presence or
absence will affect the dynamic, so I ask that you do your best to
attend every session, and let us know as far in advance of any absence
as you can. If you have paid for a session that you miss, your
payment can either be applied to the next session or refunded to you,
your choice.
