I'M INTERESTED IN JOINING, WHAT DO I DO? Please post below! I'll provide you with a link to our discord and our website. WHAT IS A LIVING CAMPAIGN? ​​Living campaigns are a shared campaign setting with a codified set of rules for the campaign that govern how to build and advance characters as well as how the campaign will handle rules elements of the setting. Campaign staff create, distribute, and manage new adventures in that campaign setting, and quite often administer a player database and promote various products. A living campaign lets players build and advance characters, develop their personalities, and forge relationships. Living campaign games are run at conventions, game days and other gatherings. The rules for character tracking allow a player to take their PC they created for the campaign to any of these meetings and play it in the adventures offered. In this instance the&nbsp;OLC&nbsp;or&nbsp;Ohr Living Campaign&nbsp;is an online living campaign centered on using the programs&nbsp; Discord &nbsp;&amp;&nbsp; Roll20.net &nbsp;to create a living, breathing world where multiple game masters and players can come together to build a shared universe. Players can create characters and take them to multiple games to go on different adventures or explore dark dungeons as they present themselves. Always keep in mind however that actions have consequences and those consequences can affect the world around you!​ WORLD OF OHR AT A GLANCE : System :&nbsp;Torches in the Dark - OSR Inspired System. Classes to choose from: Warrior, Thief, Prelate, Wytch, Marauder. A dark,&nbsp;brutal setting . Inspired by the likes of Dark Souls, The Witcher, Conan, and Lovecraft. Mic required . Primarily voice based game using&nbsp; Discord &nbsp;and&nbsp; Roll20 &nbsp;for maps/tokens/music/etc. A living campaign &nbsp;with games ran as one-shots, campaign scenarios, large scale server events and more. Age Requirement : 16+ Registration required . We want dedicated players and game masters. LGBT friendly &nbsp;with a code of conduct in place. New player friendly &nbsp;and new players always welcome to join. Veteran players are always welcome as well. Game Masters who wish to world build , create lore or to run games in our setting are free to sign up as a trial GM and begin playing. You can visit our website here :&nbsp; <a href="https://www.worldofohr.com" rel="nofollow">https://www.worldofohr.com</a> &nbsp;for more information and to read some lore. YOU WILL PROBABLY ENJOY THIS GAME IF... You're okay with heavy homebrew. Stress, banned spells, spell points, critical hit &amp; fumble charts, madness and more! You want a large sandbox role-playing game where you can explore a massive ruined city, multiple continents, and countless deadly dungeons. You're okay with change. We're often adding in new class archetypes, races, maps, lore, etc. This is a constantly evolving project and sometimes that means we need to make updates to balance certain things or to ensure a fun gaming experience for our game masters and players. The world doesn't adhere to 'levels'; you may very well be adventuring into territory where a powerful troll has made his home. Just because you're level 1 doesn't mean he's going to scale to the level of your adventuring party. He might kill you easily. It's up to players to know when to run. You enjoy old school meat grinders, where traps are deadly, the world is dangerous, cruel and evil men are terrifying, and monsters? Monsters are the truly horrifying beasts of the night that pose monumental challenges. Come prepared for anything. If you want to help us create a world while we play games together. We reward players who world build and submit content to our website with 'Patron Points' that allows them new features and bonuses for their characters. IF you LOVE detailed and gruesome combat descriptions and gore. If you enjoy Dark Souls and Bloodborne. This setting is cruel and relentless. This is not a heroic world. The Meta-Game.&nbsp;I'm talking about features like 'Inspiration' that has no other point of being in the game other than because it's a fun mechanic and a way to reward the players for playing their characters well. We've gone a step further and have created a number of achievements, land ownership, and a few other systems that you're welcome to take part in but it's totally fine if you don't. YOU WILL PROBABLY QUIT AFTER THE FIRST SESSION IF... You're looking for a 100% genuine 5e experience set in the Forgotten Realms. You're a rules lawyer or you read through the monster manual while we play the game. If you've actually read this post please post 'silverstrand' somewhere in your application. If you don't like the idea of being able to shoot a goblin in the face with a flintlock pistol. If you're playing a character who is evil or more interested in their own goals than that of the parties, it's okay to be the renegade outsider but not if it means your goal is to back-stab or kill the party in the process. Don't be that guy. You know who I mean. The piece of ****.
Sounds fabulous!
Id be willing to join, but I'm not the most experienced. I've completed a few sessions of a gruesome zombie apocalypse type campaign called Silverstrand, and a couple one shots, and you can probably count on two hands the number of sessions I've completed. Your campaign sounds very interesting, and I'd love to join.&nbsp;
I would like to join as well, ✌🏽
