Welcome one-and-all! Welcome to a tale of heroes and villains, troubles and triumphs, and above all, a story of one party of brave adventurers... Campaign and logistical details: - Sessions will likely run from 4 to 5 hours, meeting weekly, depending on player and DM schedules. Sunday and Tuesday evenings PST are the favored times for now, but exact times for each session will be based on player schedules - We will be playing D&D 5e in a custom campaign setting - We like players who have a webcam in addition to a microphone, but only a microphone is required Important: The campaign is operated on a pay-to-play basis of $10 per person, per session. We are currently running three pay-to-play campaigns and have had exceptional results with this method. We've found that pay-to-play allows us to maintain a high level of art and narrative quality and encourages player consistency and involvement (see "What you get", below). If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about pay-to-play gaming, please send me a PM as we're trying to keep this thread reserved for inquiries related to the campaign. About me: There are several DMs behind this account; my name is Patrick, and I'll be your host for this campaign. I'm a Story Teller first and a Dungeon Master second. I work with the players to form an intricate story and to offer everyone a fun experience. I was an alpha tester for 5e, and am extremely confident in the mechanics of both DnD and Roll20. I'll be utilizing the many features Roll20 has to offer, ranging from intricate and interactive maps to dynamic lighting! As a DM, I've been running games for about 6-7 years, ranging from a variety of different gaming systems, worlds and home-brews. I favor the role play aspects rather than the crunch of mechanical play. The combats I do offer often utilize environments and reward creative thinking. I dislike putting players through a hack and slash, and always put in alternate ways around obstacles. I enjoy nothing more than incorporating personalized, interwoven stories that tie the players to each other, and the characters to the world. What you get: - Commitment . Not only from me, but also from the people you'll be playing with. Flaking sucks on either side of the GM screen and many a beautiful campaign has been ruined by scheduling and inconsistency. - Personalization . Not only will I tailor the campaign to your character, weaving your backstory into the fabric of the campaign, but I will also adapt the feel of the campaign to everyone's playstyle preference. Not enough action? Not enough politics? I’ll adapt future sessions to suit the party. - Guidance . If you're new to roleplaying, tabletop, dungeons and dragons or even 5e. We're available to answer any and all questions you might have. We can walk you through some of the more technical aspects of the game or act as a sounding board to bounce your creative ideas against. If you're interested in DMing, we can put aside some time to teach you how we DM. - Customization . Working with a paid group and two other GMs allows more flexibility to bring in detailed art, tokens and maps, more intricate and challenging puzzles and a better all-around experience. The campaign has only just started, and currently has three players. The first few sessions will be using a post-session payment model. This is not intended as a free trial, but if you decide early on that this isn't the right fit for you, you won't be out any money. Please send me a PM if you're interested in getting more information! Thanks for stopping by! Two's Company
