Focus on player choice & meaningful or immersive combat. The Setting!- The year is 996 Post-Sundering, and the diverse, seclusionist nations of The Wayward Lands are stirring. Unsettled, and uncertain. Fueled with a new sense of urgency as beyond reason, in the last scant few weeks, the sky has begun to crack apart. And the dead... no longer seem complacent. Leaders scramble to understand, blame, secure, ...seize. Beneath all, however, darker forces stir, and a long-forgotten struggle between the known gods and the hidden begins anew. Your adventure starts here. The Campaigns!- Wayward Lands campaigns are paid , ongoing campaigns set in a single, unified homebrew setting. Though the setting is run as a living world, the heart of each campaign is the players. The core of the game is their story, their backstories and choices, and how their tales relate to the greater events of this potentially epic setting. Mechanics-wise, all groups play weekly and are run using a standard 5e ruleset with a few minor house-rules added to make the experience more welcoming to newer players. DM does character accents & voices! Leveling is benchmark. Sessions run 3 to 4 hrs. The setting is a complex and mildly a-typical homebrew setting, designed to provide optimal immersion with a gentle learning curve. More specific details about logistics etc are available via PM.

( The Planeshifters ) 7:30pm Pacific (10:30pm Eastern) - Currently Active- GROUP FULL! Application Process- 2 Questionnaires & A Trial Run! Step 1 - Please PM me your answers to the following. First name / preferred nickname ? Age & preferred pronouns? Which upcoming group are you applying to? ( Currently one spot each in Wed @ 7:30pm Pacific, & Friday @ 3pm Pacific/ 6pm EST avail ) Have you done tabletop or other formats of roleplay before? If so- what/where/when? What race/class would you most like to play in this campaign? What is a quickie-version of your potential character's backstory? What is your preferred balance of roleplay to combat in an average session? Can you afford to commit to a long term, weekly game at the given price, (listed below in rates/disclaimer )? What is your favorite color? What, in brief, is the coolest RP scene you ever participated in/watched? Step 2- Once I have your answers, I will contact you with a more detailed questionnaire on player preferences, character details, and playstyle. This may involve some back & forth. Step 3- Should everything look good after that, I'll work with you to set up a free, group "trial run" game to complete the interview process and see if our in-action playstyles are a fit. *Do note if you are joining a pre-existing team, there may be a slightly longer "trial period" to determine if your style will mesh well with the existing team long-term. About The DM!- Hi there! Name's September. I'll be your story-pilot for this evening. Buckle up! We're in for a nerdy ride! Seriously though- I am a 40-something creative writer, critter, & avid roleplay enthusiast. My DM experience began a bit unconventionally, as I gleaned most of my chops running persistent story arcs for large groups of players (30-100) in a variety of MMORPGs over the course of ~15 yrs. I have however switched over to tabletop, and am LOVING it, as it enables a much more personal, and immersive story. Oh, & I am also an artist & graphic designer. All your home-drawn maps are belong to me. :) Rates/Disclaimer- These games will require payment to the Game Master at a rate of $12 per player, per session, via Ko-Fi. The first "trial-run" game is always free. DnDBeyond is not responsible for any payment transactions and cannot enforce any private arrangements. Why Paid?- A girl's gotta caffeinate! But more seriously, doing these campaigns as paid games lets me focus exclusively on delivering immersive and beautiful, personalized tales to my players. It also helps cover costs for reference materials (I have content share for the legendary bundle and more!), as well as covers labor time making game-art! Spoilers!- I also provide personalized character-portrait tokens for all ongoing players. Examples: Essentially though- I do my best to make every session worth every penny. And I never ask for payment for our first "trial run." Roleplay is personal, and I strongly believe it's essential to ensure we are a good fit for each other before committing to a regular game. All that said, I hope to hear from you! & I look forward to crafting -your- story.
