[5E] [D&D] New DM LF Players for a roleplay-heavy, sandbox-style homebrew campaign. Saturday 11:00 AM PDT.

1428739664

Edited 1428884954
I'm a new DM looking for 1 additional player to launch a weekly game on Saturdays at 11:00 AM PDT. While this will be my first experience DMing, I'm well-versed in the 5E rules and I've played in a number of games through roll20. The campaign will take place in a fairly low-magic world and offered in a sandbox-style. This means you will be free to do whatever you want to do. After the first session and initial story and introductions, the characters decide where to go next and what to do next. What you should bring: - Time. I invest time and I expect you to invest time as well. - Dedication . Design a character you care about, write up a backstory that means something and that has impact on how you act. Be what you want to be and see where it goes. - Voice . It's somewhat obvious, isn't it? I understand everyone who's shy and doesn't like to be the center of attention, but if you apply I want you to be willing to speak up and live your character ( and this will happen via skype ). - Tolerance . Don't expect people to act like you would act. In character interactions can always escalate, they are even expected to do so. But afterwards there should be room to speak about what happened and to resolve the conflict. I personally don't care whether you have 30 years of experience or are totally new to this, in general, everyone is welcome. And those who aren't used to the system will receive as much help as they want. ps: english is not my native language, so a few confusing moments are guaranteed.
Hi Milan , my name is aledas and id like to aply for your campaing given a few more details . The time translate into 8 pm for me , wich is perfect , you say the campaing its goin to be low magic , i asume this is a world you created ? Is there a reason that the world is low magic ? , people fear it or is much simpler ,not a hole lot of magic around ? :P , im starting with 5e , and have not have that long expirience with the rest of editions , been playing for 2 years maibe . im spanish , so we might make those confusing moments more often now , i made a post sometime ago , were i think i describe myself pretty well , if you like to give it a look its this link <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1787002/adventur" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1787002/adventur</a>... . Well good luck with the searching , and happy adventuring :)
Hey Milan, The post by aledas made me realise that this is indeed at 8 pm, which would be great. I very much like sandbox style games, where the player has a nice illusion of freedom. This does mean I would need to know a few things about the world, mostly so I can make a fitting character. I already have 2 concepts in mind, but the world will decide which one i use. I will probably send you some questions in a PM if you do not mind. I am quite experienced in D&D4e, so I will take some time shortly to read up on d&d5. I am however somewhat new to the roll20 mechanics, but i"m sure i can make it work. If there is anything you would like to know more about me, let me know. Hope to hear more about this. Either way, i wish you all the best.
Hello Milan, I've played some 3.5e and 5e and I've also done my fair share of DMing for both editions. I'm pretty big on role-play and would like to join in on your sessions, however... I think I can only make half of them, every other Saturday. The good news is that I have a friend who is available on the Saturdays that I'm not, in case you'd like us to make a character with MPD (Multiple Personality Disorder) or something. ;) If not, I wouldn't mind dropping in on half the sessions, but I also fully understand if that's not something you're okay with. Let me know! :)
Hi Milan, I'm brand new to Roll20 and D&D, I have read through parts of the handbook so I'm slightly familiar. I'd be really interested in learning more about the D&D. I'd be interested in joining your group the time would be 7pm for me locally which works well for me personally. I have skype and a working mic. If you'd like to know more about me to see if I'm a fit for your group please let me know.
Hello milan. I wish I could join it would be interesting to see what you will do with your world. Pity Ill be most likely asleep during the time your starting the campaign. Let me know how it goes
Hello! If you still have room for one more I would love to join in. I am currently looking for a lengthy campaign (was supposed to start one today, but campaign was deleted 1 hour before start time )'= ) I am most interested in playing a wizard or sorcerer, but am willing to play whatever to make a better fit for the party. A little bit about me - 27, male, live in southern california so I am in PST. I am experience with roll20 and 2e (currently in a 2e homebrew on tuesdays) I love campaigns that last a long time allowing rich stories to develop. If you think I would be a good fit I would be able to have a character ready by your next session. Feel free to ask me any questions. Look forward to hearing back from you, Chris
That's too bad, Puck. I'll keep you in the loop. Would have been interested in seeing you as an actual player as well.
This is probably full but if not I would definetly like to join in!
Greetings Milan. I played 2e a little way back in the day. So, I'm effectively brand new to d&d. If you're willing to deal with my newbie-ness I'd love to join.
Would love to join Love a good homebrew! pretty new to D&D but I have a pretty good grasp on it! Got a couple characters made and ready to go
I would love to join in to see what kind of low magic sandbox game you can come up with. I am well aware of your understanding of the rules and would love to run around in a more vanilla campaign where there are not weird variations to every encounter you run into. Yeah i'm looking at you puck.... I would like to play either a Rogue or Barbarian if group composition allows for it. If I have to I can go full heal monkey and just stand in the back and look good. 8D PS. Milan will punish stupid with extreme vengeance. He highly encourages strategic conflict resolution that doesn't result in using all of your resources in the first fight against 2 Kobolds.
Thank you for the invite, this does look right up my alley! I would love to play, if you would have me. I like coming up with voices for my characters and love taking the time to build a story around them. As i've said before, I like Druid and Paladin classes, but I can play others, and favor Dragonborn but always willing to try out something else if you'd rather not deal with it so much. As far as magic goes, does 'low magic' restrict anything a Druid might be able to do?
Apologies Milan, dont intend to hijack your thread. But thought, if you have spill-over applicants, they may wish to check out my game, its around the same time (i think). Im running a long-term Forgotten Realms campaign (5th Ed). Our core 4 hour session is at 5PM GMT on Sundays, and we aim to have a shorter 1-2 hour mid-week session on alternate Wednesdays at about the same time. We're a group of matured players with a strong focus on RP and have been playing for the past month. We have two slots that have become vacant and need filling. You can find more about this here: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1836712/one-last-player-needed-5e-long-term-fr-campaign-5pm-gmt-sundays/#post-1843904" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1836712/one-last-player-needed-5e-long-term-fr-campaign-5pm-gmt-sundays/#post-1843904</a>
Apologies Milan, I dont intend to hijack your thread, but thought maybe I could steal some of your applicants..... HEY click this link......... Poor form Sid, Poor form.

One of our players suddenly dropped out, therefore we have at least 1 slot open for a new and ambitious adventurer. The party is currently level 3 and is starting to bond over the hardships they had ( and will have ) to face. If you're interested, please feel free to post here or write me a pm. Edit: Oh wow, that was fast. Thank you for the replies, we're already at full capacity again.
Id be up for adventurer! I'd love to do a Elf Rogue...and female, if you allow me to roleplay different gender!
but but I wanted to make a drow warlock!
Our group recently suffered a few losses and is now looking for 1-2 new adventurers who'd like to join their ranks. We now have progressed to 4th level and are heavily in need of a sturdier frontliner and/or healer. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Hi Milan, I would be interested in joining your campaign. I have been looking for a long term group/campaign. I have experience as a DM and player in 5E. Mostly DM hence me looking for group :). If you could give me some intel on the world then i would very much enjoy making a backstory. What is the party's makeup, I don't want to step on someone else's toes.
Hello there Milan, This sounds great, I am very into character development and Roleplay and just from this post it seems I would enjoy this type of game. There is a caveat or two however, I'm new to tabletop in general, and the few games I have run have been rules-light systems and I have literally no experience with D&D any edition and as such would require a moderate amount of hand holding in the beginning. I am a passionate RPer however, and would be willing to make it work if you would as well :) If I sound acceptable let me know, I'd love to start working with you on character creation and such, thanks.
I'm interested sure. I have played in a number of games/groups period. I have all the requirements you ask for. I usually enjoy playing the beefy frontliner so I don't mind filling out a Battlemaster Fighter based on defense. Lemme know if you are interested. ^^ "Currently I run the online Adventure League Club for 5th edition. I have been DMing for a good 5-6 years give or take. I am a university student and working on getting a degree in Psychology. Feel free to message me if you want to talk and play etc."
Thank you for all the replies, the slots have been filled already.
