[LF2P] [5e D&D] 9am CST Saturday - Long Term Game

Greetings fellow travelers! We are a group of three adventurers and a DM who are looking for 2 additional players. We are playing in a custom setting with standard 5e D&D ruleset. We do both theory of the mind for most RP and maps for most combat encounters. We play on Saturday at 9:00am CST. A session usually lasts 3-5 hours. We use Discord for voice. As a party we have a Wood Elf Shadow Monk with dips into Warlock, Dwarf Fighter, and Elf Wizard Blading Singer. Our current storyline has us working with a Dwarven faction to stop several bandit attacks that seem to be turning into a full blown invasion. We assume once we remove the bandit threat we will be seeing other elements of the Raven Company who seem to be funding the bandits. As far as players we are looking for classes that will compliment what we already have. A utility Cleric or Bard with a heal would be highly desirable. A tank would also be desirable. Barbarian or tanky Cleric. As far as magic users a Druid or Sorcerer would also work. We are NOT looking for a Rogue, Warlock, Ranger, or Fighter class. If you’d like to multi-class that is an option as well. As far as character backstory we ask that you have one. We also ask that you work with our DM behind the scenes to integrate your character into the ongoing story. Meaning you will need to come up with some short and long term goals. These can be anything from discovering who your parents are, why you grew up in a monastery, why your lover ran off, ect. That he can work into our sessions. As far as our players. We love RPing and continually try and RP as closely to our characters as possible. We aren’t looking for characters who will lie and cheat the party. We aren’t looking for characters who act dumb because they have a low Int score. We aren’t looking for a character who is just going to rush rush rush in every combat scenario. Our DM will do a lot of RP during some parts of the combat encounters so if you're the type who just wants to burst through a door and starting attacking every time then this won’t be a good group. That being said we do like our combat encounters and there will be time where the best plan of action is to just face roll everything. We are currently at level 2 with one character just hitting level 3 so it's a great time to jump in. We plan to do a few interviews and then invite several people to play with us a few times before making a final decision on permanent members for our last two slots. We are looking for long term players. As far as our DM goes. He is a new DM but a very good new DM. At the end of each session he asks for critiques, opinions, and ideas about how the session could have been better. He takes what he is given and applies them to the next session. He is very fair when it comes to characters, rolls, and what we want to do in-game. He rarely says no and tries to accommodate us during our sessions on whatever we want to do. He is on time and prepared for the sessions. He doesn’t keep us on rails though. If we deviate from his session plan he keeps things going on the fly and things can end up in totally different spot than he intended. We have had a death in our party so be aware that decisions have consequences. If this sounds like something you might be interested in please make a separate post using the below template. If we select you for our party we will PM you our Discord so we can do an interview.

Hello there! I would like to join the group, though I do have a worry. From my timezone, it is 9 PM here, and it may be a bit too late for my taste. If the group's time is more flexible, then I may think harder of joining.

Hello, my name is Javi and I am 25. I do not have any 5e experience but I have watched all of Critical Role if that counts. I do have half a year playing pathfinder. I do have a working mic and discord is currently what I use for my pathfinder sessions. Being newish, I am still unlocking my ability to create characters but I would love to play a Forest Gnome Druid who spends a lot of thier time in wild shape. His home was destroyed in a fire when he was very young. All he remembers is being awoken by laughter and then intense searing pain as the flames destoryed everything around him. Thankfully a Druid was passing by and was able to put out the flames. Unfortunately, he was the only survivor. The druid took him in.
Hi, I'm new to roll20 (and the forums of such), but an old hand at D&D. Real Name: Kin Age: 37 Working Mic: Yes Have You Used Discord: Yes Sample Character Name: Iksith Class: Cleric, Knowledge or Nature domain (haven't made up my mind, depends on what would better serve the group) Race: Lizardfolk Backstory: It sounds like you're in Faerun, but I'd want to know a bit more about your world and if it's stock or not and then temper my backstory around that. In general, a member of a relatively peaceful tribe of Lizardfolk. If Knowledge domain- the village lore-keeper. If Nature domain, the village Shaman. Either way, their village was assaulted by a neighboring Yuan-Ti tribe (or similar threat, again need to know your version of the world). Most of his tribe was killed and he now wanders the land looking for a place for them to settle once more. And if a group of adventurers happens to need his assistance, well perhaps with newfound power he can retake his ancestral lands. I've been playing D&D since the early 90s, though I haven't played many 5e games.  I'm a writer and a roleplayer, so I'll definitely be down to get involved in the story.  Let me know if there are any other questions. Thanks
We are not in Faerun. Its a custom sandbox but so far only the basic 5e races have been introduced. So anything out of the published materials. Including all the recent stuff they have put out online.

Hello I am pretty interested. Real Name: Anthony Age:24 Yes to the mic yes all the time. Name Arellian Leingod Class Cleric War or Protection Domain (if your DM allows the Unearthed Arcana released) Race Human Variant  Backstory. Arellian was a simple boy living in a small family. They barely had enough to go around and everyone had to get a job doing whatever they could including Arellian. Arellian was bullied because of this and often got picked on from the other kids but he endured what he could in order to help his family. One day on his way home he saw that his father had openly dissed and assaulted a noble who had almost run over a little girl with his carriage. After hitting the noble, the guards put him to death right on the spot. Guards then broke into his house and assaulted him mom. Orphaned the boy walked the streets looking for any bit of hope. He was watching in the streets one day when that same carriage passed buy. Angry the boy threw a rock at it. It halted to a stop and the same noble got out and stared at the boy. It was then Hope was brought back into the child. A loose pin popped and the inn sign just under the noble fell and with one loud crack the noble lay lifeless on the ground. Just then a man approached the alone boy and took him in to his church (now normally this church depending on the setting belongs to a god of Justice and example would be Tyr). He explained to the boy that this was Tyr's ( or the diety of choice) doing. It's here he trained the boy by having him to hard labor for the church and eventually teaching him to fight. Turns out this man used to be a great fighter. By the age of 26 Arellian was ready to go fourth into the world, with Tyr watching over him, he would be the justice the world so desperately needed.
Real Name: Sean Age: 21 Working Mic: Yes Have You Used Discord: Yes Sample Character Name: Reid Hawkin Class: Sorcerer Race: Half-Elf Backstory: Born and raised in the country as a farmer, Reid is one child of many in the large Hawkin Family. Born to a stoic father, and a lively mother, he has always treasured the advice and council of his parents and his family around him. Sometime in the history of his family, a Red dragon was in conflict with local powers. In the night, a battle took place between the dragon and these forces. The dragon lost this battle and had its horde and its treasures taken from it. Still reeling from the loss, torn and tattered, the dragon fell upon a farmhouse on the humble plot owned in part, by the Hawkin Family. Polymorphing into an elf, the dragon talked his way into the good graces of the Hawkin family and used its silver-tongue to get aid and rest himself on their farm, all the while plotting his revenge. With time, the dragon had lost its aims of reconquering its lost horde, instead finding an even more valuable treasure amongst the land, the quiet pride and diligence of the Hawkin Family. The polymorphed dragon took the hand of one of the Hawkin’s daughters, and has continued living with them on the guise of being of elf heritage. Reid himself is the offspring of this union. Though as geopolitics of the land itself had crept on the Hawkin homestead, and the family had found refuge in a nearby city. The complexities and bush-beating of city dwellers were lost on the earnest Hawkin family. Soon the once large, tight-knit family had found itself fractured, finding different successes and approaches to living in the city. Though one to make fast friends, Reid never enjoyed the disposition of city dwellers. With an uncanny grip on the arcane, Reid seeks work and the knowledge to understand why his control over the arcane arts is so intuitive, requiring no spell book or extensive classes or lessons.
Still looking for more players.

Real Name: Christian McKinzie Age: 23 Working Mic: Yes Have you used Discord: I'm fairly new to it but i'm a fast learner Sample Character: Revan Nalasar Race : Dragonborn (Bronze) Class : Paladin (Oath of Vengeance) Background : Soldier Story : Combat Medic for the 36th regimen of the Draconic Army of Aebir. Fairly decorated early in my career, I gained a reputation as a medical tactician, conducting the health of my allies in battles in order to help push my platoon towards victory. But no one's record is perfect. To this day, I still don't know what happened. I was cocky. The rhythm of battle was in our favor. There was no way we would or could lose. But in the middle of my orchestra, my plans fell apart, shattered. A mysterious and small Tiamat platoon from an even small draconic kingdom overpowered and decimated my entire squad. As if my platoon was a team full of rookies. Leaving me alive in order to tell their tale... And when it came time to report back to my counsel, I decided to keep that aspect of the battle... a secret. Deciding to carry this burden and the mission to exterminate those who took my honor, my reputation, and my friends alone... Not in the name of my god but for myself... And joining a rag tag group of random people will hopefully disguise my intentions and bring me closer to each and every one of those Tiamat worshipping bastards.... Revan’s goal :To avenge his fallen teammates, ad kill the squadron that killed his platoon. Appearance: A younger Shenron/Godzilla with a strong jaw, two pearl white fangs in the very front. His scales look sharp as if they are armor themselves. His eyes a piercing yet calm combination of yellow and black. His body has an Athletic build, and it’s absolutely covered in battle scars (Tough enough to scar scales). With a scar right above his heart and thick scar across his right eye.

My name is Rune , I'm from Sweden(Central European Time) and I'm 24 years old . I have about 5 years of experience with Roll20, the system I started out with was 3.5, then Pathfinder and finally 5e, which I have played since it came out and I have most experience in. What I enjoy in roleplaying is creating my character, explaining the cool ways I kill monsters/people in, how awesome my magic looks and making a story. I like a nice mix of roleplaying and combat, I'm not one to take too much space to do my roleplaying and I am no tactical mastermind of combat but I enjoy both of them as much. I have a working Mic. And regularly use Discord. Name: Haven't made one up yet Race: Hobgoblin or Deep Gnome, whichever the DM find suit him best. Class: Theurgy Wizard (from Non-Divine Faithful; Unearthed Arcana) Background: Far Traveler Backstory: As the Hobgoblin the story will be something of failure and desire of doing something great for once. He have left his community due to getting tired of their failure against simple adventurers and bored of healing them over and over again without any changes happening to his life. Him leaving left him marked for death by his community, but planing on becoming an adventurer himself, he believed they would be no problem for himself and his companions to be. He is a dreamer and want to change, he want to prove to the "higher" races that Hobgoblins ain't all bad.  As the Deep Gnome the story will be something like. During his life in the mines he has worked as a healer and as a earth-sculpturer. Healing miners who have gotten hurt, saving trapped miners with his magic and sculpting the actual mines is what he has worked with for most of his life. But once he met surface dwellers, nothing else has been on his mind. These surface dwellers was adventurers who was looking for ancient passages in the mines, he don't remember the specifics, but among them was a spellcaster off amazing power. After seeing them take care of a group of hook horrors with ease, and envying their casters power, he decided that he too wanted to be an adventurer. So after a time of preparing, he left his friends and family behind to grow his power with magic and knowledge of the world. He is also a dreamer and wanting to change, he is looking to gather knowledge and power to later return to his community and help it grow. Edited; I'd also be willing to play a Human Variant Cleric/Wizard Multiclass if you don't like using Unearthed Arcana. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am also interested in playing a Circle of the Beast Druid (druid circle : circle of the beast; unearthed arcana). Name: dunno yet Race: Forest Gnome Class: Druid, Circle of the Beast Background: Hermit Backstory: A Forest gnome and his trusted Large snake companion. a Gnome who got excommunicated from his society for befriending a snake, an animal that kills and eats the usual animal friends of a forest gnome. So he left to walk the large forests of Faerûn and tried to teach himself about the power of the druids, of which he was an apprentice of when he still was accepted in his village. He focused his endeavors on making himself a better friend to the snake and how to empower it, but after a few years he began having this strange urge inside him. Something is telling him to leave seclusion, to walk out of his beloved forest. And even though he doesn't know what it is or what it wants, yet, he obeys and follow wherever this urge guides him. With his trusted snake slithering besides him.
