Hello all,
I'm at somewhat of a stressful time in life at the moment and looking
for a bit of an escape via AD&D 2E in particular, that being my
first and still favorite version of D&D to have played. I'd also
consider 3rd Ed or (less enthusiastically, I admit) 5th Ed. It's all on the table for consideration, even if I refer to AD&D a lot.
Faerun was always my favored setting, and I'm generally looking for that
or a similarly high fantasy but still mostly inoffensive backdrop, with
a friendly group appreciative of role-playing. I've fingers crossed there may be some games out
there to match! I'm looking for a long term campaign so that we can really get to
develop a rapport as characters and players, but stringing together
modules with the same party or something similar would also work. With
regard to my own preferences, it's all about role-playing as stated, but
I do have a particular liking in the case of AD&D for the odd classes requiring
those difficult rolls to get (paladin/ranger/druid/bard/etc)! Kits are
great, too. I'd want to learn about the setting and party composition
before deciding any of that, find my own niche. In 5E, well, you won't
be surprised to hear I consult Unearthed Arcana material a lot for
ideas. I'm burnt out on the core options. No matter the system, I like to fill an empty niche role which contributes something entirely new to the group.
I love an open world where choices matter and
we're not locked to the rails of the current module or plotline. The
ability to diverge and pursue some personal goals goes a long way with
me, as does freedom of creativity with regard to character creation. A
spread of options is a great thing to have, as playing what I truly feel
like playing brings out the best role-playing in me for all to enjoy!
Given this is AD&D (or whatever system, the point tends to still
apply) and the lowest levels can be both dull and murderous for lack of
abilities developed at that point, I'll consider the higher levels a big
bonus! I have no objection to joining an ongoing game which is at this
point, especially if you'll be going on for a good while longer. A group
of mature, relaxed friends within and without the sessions is a welcome
thing right now.
Thanks very much for considering my request for a place at your table,
and I hope to hear from you. Please feel free to reach out via Discord

SUMMARY INFO
Experience: 26+ years of tabletop, beginning with AD&D2E and every edition thereafter, along with many other settings! Professional GM.
Availability: Currently 2pm-10pm EST, currently open to offers every day of the week.
Seeking: Role-playing and good story, with flexible character
creation options and chances to evolve during play, I was a voice actor prior to disability, and I love to use those talents! As to favored setting, I'm most at home in Faerun - and in many more areas than the Sword Coast! Content mostly family friendly level,
excepting violence (kind of a hallmark of the game). Friendly, mature,
relaxed players. Long term campaign or series of campaigns, that we may become friends as players and better develop our stories together along the way. A
smaller group, 4-6 characters, suits me best so that everyone has a
chance to shine. I strongly favor a
high level game and do not mind joining one in progress if it's going to
last a good while longer!
