This game is set for Sunday afternoon at 1pm MDT. I have three regular players and this is an ongoing campaign. It is 5e, and the characters are currently 4 th level. We have a Samurai, a Rogue/ Barbarian, and a Gloomstalker in the current party. I will be using the Out of the Abyss adventure as a framework for this campaign. It is set in the World of Ar'Neth (my Home-brew setting). Characters begin at level 3 and must have a tie to the surface world. You all begin the game as prisoners of the Drow, at their outpost of Velkynvelve. This is a paid game. I have 40+ years as a game master and charge a flat monthly fee of $40.00. Our sessions run about 4 hours - sometimes longer when the players are able. Some people balk at paid gaming but there are a lot of benefits to it. You get a higher quality of gamer, they are on time and looking forward to the game - they are invested in the game. Meet with me if you have questions or are curious about it - I do offer discounts at times. To put it in perspective I earn $10 per hour to run the game with 4 players. All the prep time and materials purchases are separate. I love to help create awesome backstories for characters and draw them into the story which makes this better than an MMO. You can contact me here on Roll20, I am Grundvarg#2627 on Discord. You will also note at the end of this advertisement that I have a list of games I am conversant in and able to run easily. If you have an interest in one of those games or another game do not hesitate to ask – I still have some game slots open to run additional games. I would like to add two more players to the game The application process is to aid me in learning about you as a player and what it is that you are looking for, I am more than happy to have new players to role-playing, roll 20, or D&amp;D. LFG Listing <a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/128384/-" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/128384/-</a> I am looking for players that have an interest in playing the game to its conclusion and beyond. # WHAT I BRING TO THE TABLE **40+ years of gaming experience.** I have personally been playing rpg's since I was 7 years old giving me over 40 years of experience. I have worked in the industry doing interior art, game design and adventure writing. I still do a bit of graphics design and create beautiful maps for the games. I have also dabbled a bit in converting and creating top down miniatures. **Solid Game Master Philosophy:** My GM-ing philosophy is simple and a little flexible depending on the system I am running. We are here to have fun. As GM it is my job to present you a credible world in which to interact with. I need to offer the players what they are looking for in a game. I am not there to “win” by killing players. That said, players do die and a game where the threat of death or failure, is an exercise in collective storytelling and not a game. I will say that I am usually cheering for the players to push the darkness back enough to live another day. **BUT**; I let the dice fall where they may. The characters stand or fall on their own cleverness, fortitude, guile, and resourcefulness. ..* I am Disabled due to car accident that happened years ago. How is this something I bring to the table – Well I have lots of time to devote to the game! ⋅⋅* Pay to Play: This is a Pay to Play game (disclaimer below). I have found that players that invest money in a game show up and are serious players. This makes for a much better game for everyone. I charge a flat fee for the month rather than a per session fee. Players that pop in and out of games are very disruptive.&nbsp; ..* I offer access throughout the week and the ability to roleplay via post using RPOL.net. I find this really helps draw players into the experience. It also allows for time-consuming or player specific events not to take up game time. ..* I tailor my games to fit the players desire. Good parts of role play and combat and problem-solving make for good solid games. # WHAT I ASK OF PLAYERS ..* Application: Include character type preference, type of game you are interested in (mix of rp and combat, combat heavy, rp heavy etc.), Your experience with roleplay in general, and your overall expectation for the game. - Please PM me with the above information as well as anything else you think I may need to know as well. Finally, let me know a time I can contact you on Discord – feel free to add me I am Grundvarg#2627 just let me know it is for the Friday night CoS game. ⋅⋅* Be on time ⋅⋅* Be present and ready to play. ..* Do not miss sessions- Sometimes life gets in the way and that is fine but excessive absences are disruptive and unfair to other group members and others who would like your chair at the table. ⋅⋅* PLEASE let me know if possible if you're going to be absent. (Recently a friend of mine from Denmark died unexpectedly and it was good that his friend was able to let me know what happened.) ⋅⋅* Have fun and provide feedback This is Pay to Play- here is the required information: This game will require payment to the Game Master at a rate of $40.00 per session paid via paypal to <a href="mailto:grundvarg@gmail.com" rel="nofollow">grundvarg@gmail.com</a> . Payable at the end of the month (for the next month) or during the first week of the month. I will meet with all players on Discord and discuss any and all questions as well as aid with character development. Roll20 is not responsible for any payment transactions and cannot enforce any private arrangements.&nbsp; z# This game is set for Mature 18+ ⋅⋅* What I mean by Mature: I mean that it is a gritty semi-realistic horror setting with dark themes. I prefer dark games, but there are lines that are not crossed. Most of those things that I don't allow in my game or that I skirt have to do with Sexual assault, and mature content of that nature. I am ok with role-playing romances but in general we use the cut to the fireplace for that type of adult content. If your interested in this game or have a game you would like to play in don't hesitate to ask. Below are listed some of the systems I am comfortable with and/or have run in the past. Those with an asterisk I am very keen to run again; All Dungeons and Dragons systems save 4e. Lejendary Adventures - the final game Gary Gygax published - very character focused - but rules light- lots of fun! Most Storyteller systems – particularly Hunter the Reckoning, Hunter the Vigil, WereWolf the apocalypse and WereWolf the forsaken, Dark Heresy Warhammer 2nd Edition Rpg Castles and Crusades Iron Kingdoms and Hordes rpgs- very good system Scarred Lands 5e and 3e would love to run this Freeport City of adventure (either Pathfinder Hackmaster or 5e) currently running Starfinder I am sure there are others that are just escaping me. We use Discord for Voice. Feel free to message me there I am **Grundvarg#2627** # Good luck and happy gaming
