Long ago in the glorious kingdom of Askal the mighty Cekin, a Fire Genasi, ruled with a humble heat which spread across the lands. Proven best by his leadership abilities and way of kin, he kindled this empire after striking down the original Frozen Queen of these lands. Centuries passed as his ruled continued flourishing the lands with crops and people's hearts with love and passion, until a chilling wind blew in that seemed to corrupt that sensation. This wind grew and grew over times until it was discovered that the Queen had someone been reborn and quested for vengeance upon Cekin. Eventually over many wars a climax came to where Cekin abandoned his throne and fled with as many people as he could into the mountains. Being a deserter of his people he vowed a life of isolation and after settlements were set up vanished one day, never to be seen again. Centuries passed again and a land ruled by the hunter-gatherer societies of Barbarians and the Strong Minded, toughened by generations of harsh winds and fierce beasts came to be what life was. Life is considered a daily task, and something that is cherished. The tribes of the Ashened Kin survive primarily by cooperating with each other and settling across a wide expanse near the mountains. Once a year these tribes come together under the banner of the Great Chieftain, in order to celebrate the end of the Long Frost, and the coming of 'Cekin'. This for them, is defined as the weather being a little less cold, and the sun being visible for a few more hours each day. Great feasts are held, weddings are announced, and at the climax of the gathering, the final hunt of winter occurs. This hunt is special, because it marks the passage from child to adult within the tribes. It is also used to promote boasting within the tribes for the following year. Though the fog has slowly been dissipating from the lands and crawling back towards the oceans over the lands and people have felt passion within' their heart's. The prophecy's and forgotten stories have told of a day like this to where they must retake what was theirs and the world so long ago. This is a game of Fifth Edition Dungeons of Dragons centered around exploration, world building, dungeon crawling, and discovery, based with theater of the mind. The sessions start at or around 1:00 PM EST and last up 3 to 5 hours or more on Sundays. This is my first time DMing, though I'm fairly confident in putting in the work so everyone enjoys themselves. Some of the players are people I've come to call family over time. The biggest thing I can stress here is that we like to be more than just strangers and more of a family. We talk even on none game days and sometimes plan bonus sessions, so having some availability is always nice. Communication is key! It brings people closer to one another and makes playing the game more fun than just only talking to the people on game day. Also there is a good amount of homebrew so come with a open mind, no rule junkies "Rules as written, blah blah." We are looking for one to two more players to join up with us! We use Discord for chatting and the game, but skype will just be for the interview and another way to contact me ! Requisites: Light, no pressure Skype interview, (I understand the nature of social anxiety). Skype is what the interview will be used for, though we use Discord for games and chatting amongst each other through the week and such. We love to be more a family than a group of random strangers. Please have at least a smidgen of courage to RP, whether you are new or a veteran embrace your character and make them known as a character and not just another background NPC. If you want to have a interview send me PM or a reply on here with your Skype and a bit about yourself as a person. (Job, Hobbies, Ect.) Also what you think you can bring to the group for fun and such.
