Hi all. I posted my campaign in the Looking for Group Listing about a week and a half ago, but I thought I would go ahead and place it on the forums as well--for anyone who is interested and might have missed the opportunity otherwise. Here is the link to the campaign: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/11849/ultimate-" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/11849/ultimate-</a>... And here is the description, for easier reference: "This will be a sandbox campaign which takes place on a new continent. I will be using many of the features from the Ultimate Campaign rulebook to add flavor to the game. Kingdoms will form and grow organically over time, and the players' actions can certainly affect how these kingdoms develop. I am looking for a group of five players who ideally would exhibit the following traits: -enjoy lots of role playing -are able to adapt and react on the fly, without having to think too much -care much more about the experience of the game world than in simple power and meta gaming -have a strong desire to participate in downtime activities and kingdom building -enjoy the process of continual character development What to expect: -heavy amounts of role playing -tense tactical encounters -evolving relationships with NPCs over time -the ability to alter the course of kingdoms through heroic actions, decision making, and influence -exploration -non-linear story path -use of Downtime Events, Campaign Systems, and Kingdom rules from the Ultimate Campaign book How to apply: You can either PM me or make a thread about why you would like to join this campaign and tell me what you have to offer. You don't need to make a character sheet right now, although you can certainly link me to a sheet if you wish. Tentatively I am planning to start play on March 9th. I will take applications until March 2nd, at which point I will invite those who I feel will fit in the best for this campaign. That will give everyone a week to discuss what they would like to play on the forums. I would recommend forming a balanced party. Doing so isn't absolutely necessary, but I do tend to make encounters challenging. I have some experience as a GM and feel I have learned quite a bit about what and what not to do since playing several campaigns here on roll20, but I am hardly a master at the craft yet. I realize this campaign is a rather ambitious undertaking as a GM, but I feel I am ready to take this next step. What I've listed here in the initial description does not cover everything I plan to do with this campaign. I will likely alter and expand upon much of the downtime and kingdom building rules. Anyway, feel free to ask me any questions you may have, and I look forward to receiving your applications. I will also post details about the campaign setting within a day or two. One more note, since I have been asked a couple of times already--this campaign will be using Skype for voice chat, and a mic and a willingness to converse verbally are required. Also, on a more personal note (since I just reread this description and it sounds extremely formal), I like to joke a lot during game sessions, both in and out of character(s). And I am totally fine with, and even encourage, the other players doing so as well, as long as we don't drag down the pace of the game too much in the process. We're all here to have fun more than anything else, after all. Lastly, I'll just mention that I do not plan to entirely dictate the story to the players. If they have ideas of how things should be in this world, then I am quite willing to listen and adapt the story to reflect those ideas. Even what I have written in the "Campaign Setting" thread is not set in stone and can be altered before we start, if the majority of the players agree on changes." For anyone interested, feel free to either respond here, PM me, or make a thread on the campaign forum.
