Hello,
everyone; It's Ashley again! There comes a time when I want to work on
college, and a time where I want to be rolling some dice and
roleplaying. What better to do that with than good old Dungeons and
Dragons? You've probably seen many of my earlier ads, both for when I'm
DMing and when I'm playing. Let's have a look and find out what this
girl is looking for:

A
LITTLE ABOUT ME
- I
am a very hardcore D&D player and DM. I have DMed since 2012 and
I enjoy it a lot. I have been playing for 19 years, as my uncle
taught me at a very young age how to play. By age 9, I was very, very
good at AD&D 2nd Edition. I've been gaming ever since. I'm not
the prettiest girl in the world (In fact, I look at myself as pretty
below standard; not that I am in bad hygiene or anything). I play
only Humans, and it's not just in D&D, but also in World of
Darkness, Warhammer 40k, Exalted, World of Warcraft, Star Wars, D20
Modern; etc.. I am always Human. Some people have called me a
min-maxer type player, but it's not true. I have a theme to all of my
characters and I run off of that theme. For example, if it requires
damage output, I'll push my damage potential.
- I do enjoy rolling for
my stats. I absolutely despise having predetermined stats or stat
buying. It takes so much out of D&D. You're there to be different
from others, and having the same stats as everyone else makes the
overall game seem lazy. D&D is built on a game of chance and
luck, so if you get the short end of the stick, that's just how
things go sometimes.
- I am most comfortable playing in a group of up to 5 maximum players.
Any more than that gets really difficult because too many are talking
at the same time and it's hard to roleplay with everyone talking all at
once like that. I can do solo games, but I love interacting with group
members, so I do enjoy group games more.
- Regarding not playing with people under the age of 18, I will shed some detail on why this is: I have not
had any luck whatsoever playing with young players, and with how dark
my games get [as a DM], and with how dark I'm sure other DM's games
get, I don't want them dumbing down, or PG-ing the game down just for
the sake of catering to a child whose mind isn't as focused and
mature as ours are. And lastly, I don't feel like dealing with
parents (Had this happen one time where the mother snatched one of a
teen player's microphone and began berating the group and DM for
exposing her child to horrible monsters and blood and gore in such
detail. Never... ever... again).
- I am group-friendly, and I know D&D
rules, but I do my best not to be a rules lawyer (I'll add my input if
people aren't sure about spells or abilities).
- I love a challenge.
- I am also a 65/35 Roleplayer/Combat style
player. I hope that's all right, but can fluctuate between 60/40 and
70/30.
- I am a no-limits roleplayer (I roleplay the good, the bad, and the very ugly).
- And
last but not least, I am more of a typist-style gamer than voice
roleplayer [Meaning I love text games over voice games], but I will
do voice campaigns if that is what the DM is offering, as I do have a
microphone and webcamera. I'm not picky and I obey the DM's rules.
-
You can also see how I GM and how I play as a player on my Youtube
Channel (Just search Ashley LGRJ and my icon is the one with the Chandra
Nalaar icon as you see here in Roll20), as I livestream my
Roll20 games there.
WHAT
AM I LOOKING FOR IN A DM?
I
am looking for a mature DM who can and will challenge me; a DM who
isn't afraid to punish me for my mistakes and reward me for my
successes. I'm looking for a DM who respects backgrounds and
storyline information, applying them to their world to make it fun
for both them and me. I am also looking for a DM who isn't going to
railroad me. I am also looking for a DM who is over the age of 18,
can think big, and create really interesting storylines. I would like
to see my DM put us up against challenges that we are NOT SUPPOSED TO
defeat yet, that teach us about failure, and when it is time to run.
I do not want a DM who always ensures the players are ALWAYS the heroes and
wipes everything out. I want a DM who enjoys it when the bad guys win
some too. Like I said, challenge me, and I'll strive to be your
greatest player.
HOW TO CONTACT ME
You can reply to me here on Roll20 and then I will respond by giving you my Discord address. I know that was a lot to read up there, but I hope you enjoyed it, and are accepting of it. If so, I will be honored to play in your world, and hope that we develop a great friendship together OOCly as we progress through the story ICly. I look forward to hearing from you.
