August 8 update - Space for 1. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/291094/the-world-of-eos-a-homebrew-journey" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/291094/the-world-of-eos-a-homebrew-journey</a> |The Nuts and Bolts| - Games will be played Sunday Night 6pm Pacific weekly 3+ hours. (No more than 4 max or 10pm) - Played using Roll20, Discord, D&D Beyond. - Voice & Video (Of course you can go off cam for a bit etc, but we prefer cam for interactions) - Characters currently are level 6 (Use point buy system please - we're using the Talent Tree System ) -
First 2 sessions are free - then it is $10 per session. Pay using Venmo
(US)/Paypal (Non US). This covers the enormous amount of time I put
into this fully homebrew world as well as all of the resources I will
have available to players - Access to all but 1 or 2 source books
through D&D Beyond. *Racism, Sexism, any real "ism"
that makes anyone feel othered won't be tolerated. If its an honest and
innocent mistake through lack of knowledge, we can work with that.
Knowingly/doing so with full awareness will bring a swift ban hammer
down upon your soul. We're here for fun. And occasional tomfoolery.* |About Me| Hi!
I'm Josh. I'm 35, from New Zealand (but I live in USA). I'm married to a
beautiful woman named Treasure (yes literally). Have 2 young kids, love smoking meat and fish that I catch. Enjoy a nice whiskey and
good company. |The Party| **Joe** - *Human Fighter/Ranger* - Dystopian human from Earth - displaced and throughly out of his depth. **Luka** - *Firbolg Druid/Ranger* - He has "Luka Logic" for many/no reasons. Infuriatingly Fun/Funny. **Kai** - *Half Elf Warlock* - We call him "Crit Kai". He saves the day more than most. Potentially killed his dad. **B'heir** - *Fairy Wizard* - Our newest character. Already a great design and concept. Can't wait to see. **Space for a potential Str/Tank/Frontline/Heavy Lifter ** |The Plot Thickens| No
one has come through one of the great portals of legend in some time.
The locals believe its been close to 1000 years since the last arrivals.
The sudden appearance of the adventurers challenges the very idea that
all the portals are closed. This brings rise to an old legend that there
was a traveler able to make it back through a portal to their true
existence...so the tale goes. Maybe these new adventurers can do
something to help? The adventurers are discovering and unveiling
many things, some political in nature, some divine or hellish...they
have encountered dragons, odd strange beasts and spirits, and no small
amount of odd chaotic cosmic situations! Being ok with the unknown is a
bit of a given here as discovery, puzzles, riddles and secrets abound. |Homebrew-y Rules| * Many D&D One rules - like no spell/NPC crits, Heroic and Regular Inspiration etc. * Potions are a bonus action on self, Action on others * Flanking is +2 to hit, 3 flanking is +5. - just like cover. * PVP is only allowed if all parties are on board before hand and I've been made aware. *
We try not to "perception" the forest or "Investigation the room".
Instead we use our describing words to tell me WHAT your character is
aiming to achieve in hopes of gaining a perception/investigation/other
skill check. Like wise we try not to discuss numbers (ability
scores/skill bonuses & modifiers) in character. The likelihood a
barbarian says "well my strength score is 19 so let me kick this door
in" is very low, but "I'm strong as a mountain, i'll kick in this puny
door" is likely. * Passive scores net you a fair amount of gain and aid story pace - make sure i know/remember them. |Read more About the Campaign and World| *------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------* This
is a homebrew campaign using the D&D 5e rules setting. Eos is
*outside of time* as far as the history and the lore of Dungeons and
Dragons are considered. Races long extinct can be found here as well as
future races or hybrids not yet encountered. The D&D World as you
know it with its rich history, amazing events of catastrophic
destruction and birth of new nations and lands....simply do not exist in
Eos. Instead - enter a world of all people and times. A world that due
to *cosmically* unique events, brings new souls, faces, races and
situations every day. There is magic (no advanced technologies
like steampunk era stuff) but there are gods, prophecies, myths,
legends, rumours etc. In adventuring through this world - the
adventurers will understand that the one thing they can always count on
is the unknown. *This a potentially epic campaign of astounding power
and might.* The adventuring party will have the opportunity to save
people & towns, hunt dangerous beasts of legend, change the course
of history, discover an unknown or forgotten race or perhaps even unseat
gods. |The 3 Empires| There are only 3 large empires on
Eos, each having a single leader in though are not necessarily
dictatorships. They have separate branches for *"The State/Government"*
and *"The Church"* operating as 4 different orders. The influence of
these 4 Orders brings an interesting difference in the interactions of
PC's and NPC's in the world. The empires are: **Duugath** | Capital: Drur | Lead by *Princess Delana* **Kalothal** | Capital: Kyatan | Lead by *King Kalai* **Zeitia** | Capital: Zale | Lead by *Emperor Zettal* |The Orders| The
orders fall into Good, Neutral and Evil. The Good and Neutral Orders
are mostly involved in protection and state/church balance. The Evil
Orders predominantly operate in the shadows of rumour, myth and legend.
The Orders are broken down as such: **State/Government** | Good - *Eagle* | Neutral - *Owl* | Evil - *Raven* - *The Knight Order* | The Martial arm of the State - *The Mage Order* | The Mystical forces for the State **Church/The Divine** | Good - *Rose* | Neutral - *Protea* | Evil - *Dahlia* - *The Templar Order* (The Sword and Shield of the Church) - *The Priest Order* (The Spirit of the Church) This
game will require payment to the Game Master at a rate of $10USD per
session via Paypal/Venmo. Roll20 is not responsible for any payment
transactions and cannot enforce any private arrangements.
