[LFP] [5E] - Pirate themed game looking for Players - Tuesday 4-5 PM PST

Hello, I'm looking at starting up a 5E game with a heavy pirate theme and some moral gray areas. I'll likely be using some converted Pathfinder material as a starting point for the campaign, though I envision it branching off after the opening act or so to allow a bit of a more free form approach rather than a strictly scripted published adventure.  My vision of the game is to have a heavy focus on role-play and inter-party interactions, with a healthy dose of combat, intrigue, and exploration thrown in to add that danger and tension to the mix, and to accomplish this I'm hoping to find 4-5 motivated players who love to RP, are okay with a game that can sometimes be slow paced (Read: low-combat), and are willing to engage in the world and with their fellow players. This game will likely feature mature content, as a life of piracy is not always a pretty one, and I don't plan to gloss over things, though I also understand not everything should receive a great deal of attention or graphic detail, but anyone applying should be aware that we won't shy away from some of the more mature aspects of the setting. I'm looking for players who are more focused on building a great character, than a powerful set of numbers, and I'll definitely be discouraging power builds and min-maxing. We'll be starting around 4-5 PM PST on Tuesdays, the start time has a little wiggle room, let me know if that's the case and I can try to accommodate you, though the Tuesday date is pretty set in stone. If you're interested in the game please post in the thread, or PM me the following information: Applications for the game should include: Name: Age: Gaming Experience: A little about yourself: Describe your playing style: What are you looking for from the game? What are you looking for from the DM? A brief outline of what sort of character you might like to play, Race/Class/Alignment, and anything else pertinent, as well as let me know if you're dead set on a specific character class or race combination, or if you're more flexible with what you'll play. I'm potentially open to third party materials, though this will be on a case by case basis, and I'll be scrutinizing it fairly heavily.

Hi um I'm percy and I reaaaally love this campaign idea! I love pirates and damn that looks awesome! My tuesday's suck, but I'm free that day after 6 and I'd love to be a part of this.  I was recently introduced to tabletop D&D 5E and homebrew, but I have yet to play on the computer so you might need to be patient with me. I have experience playing roleplaying games and I'm confident I can be good player in this campaign. My style is very roleplay heavy, I love in party interactions and going off on different routes. I focus a lot of character development and development in the party. I'm looking for a creative and fun mind, someone who I can be friend's with.  I'd have to talk to you about what you're looking for, but I'm thinking a tiefling ranger or halfing rouge.  my discord is @smop#4877 Thank you :)
Well I’ve been looking for a game to scratch that d&d itch. Name: Brent age: 27 experience: mostly played 2nd ed and some 5e in adventures league at the local shop irl. Played some 5e online for a few months before we disbanded from lack of players showing up. about myself: well mostly work silent hours on weekends for private security so I have a lot of free time during the week but this means I could get called in but generally I get a good amount of notice if it does happen . Other than that im fairly easy going and I’d like to think I’m easy to get along with. playing style: well like I said I’m fairly easy going so I don’t exactly have a preferred ratio of combat/rp I generally just go with the flow. what I’m looking for in a game: just to have fun mostly. what I’m looking for in a DM: knowledgeable and able to keep their players from going to crazy. I like joking around but I find it’s very easy for a game to devolve into a lot of talking over each other and never progressing. As for a character concept I’m interested in trying a human or half-elf storm sorcerer from the SCAG. I’m not exactly dead set on it and can play whatever is needed if the party prefers. Sorry about the format I’m on mobile atm but I should be home Monday evening to talk things over if this application should interest you. I do have one question though what time zone is the game time?
Name: Fish Age: 30+ Gaming Experience: Very experienced, familiar with all of the rules with 5e, PF and PF2. A little about yourself: You can find a lot about me at the link below, but I'll also summarize.&nbsp; <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/lfg/comments/9q3emg/lfgonlineroll205epfpf2_experienced_roleplayer/" rel="nofollow">https://www.reddit.com/r/lfg/comments/9q3emg/lfgonlineroll205epfpf2_experienced_roleplayer/</a> I am a heavy roleplayer. I put forth a great deal of effort making my character come to life and living precariously through theirs. I do not metagame and make decisions solely based on what my character would do, even if they are stupid decisions. My characters are very diverse and I take pride in each and every one of them. Describe your playing style: My playing style varies based on the character I create. The actions I choose are the ones that my character would choose. I value roleplay over all else, but I enjoy a game that has everything in it, roleplay, combat, exploration, character development, story development, dungeon crawling ect. What are you looking for from the game? I am looking for a group of players that shows up on time, is prepared and dedicated to making this fantasy world a reality. I am looking for people who put forth the same effort I do and come up with diverse and unique characters that don't have a comical gimmick that defines their lives but is actually a person.&nbsp; What are you looking for from the DM? A DM that shows the players the same respect as they receive. Reads the player's backstories, incorporates them into a world. One who takes pride in the world they created and puts forth the effort to make that world a reality. One who doesn't cancel sessions very often or at all and is passionate about the game and its players.&nbsp;
The timezone for the game is PST, we're still accepting applications, and I'll start reaching out to people probably sometime Monday afternoon with the hopes of starting with a session zero on 10/23 to start going over game information, as well as begin working out characters to make sure we've got a group of characters, and players that can work and play well together!
