LFP Post - Hello there people of Roll20! I go by Res, I have been DMing for about 5 years now and enjoy making longer term campaigns focused on the players. I’m currently finishing up the general world building of this game that I am advertising for, and thus am inviting players to come apply to be players in this game. About the game This game is a longer term 0-20 level game that will be primarily focused on your characters and the world created around them. I have to collect the players before finishing any planning because I am practicing building the world around the players instead of vice versa and therefore need the players first! This will be a very high magic and fantasy game in an open world.&nbsp; About The World On the world of Skaiya rests an aged land known as Acrar, the largest continent of the known world, Acrar is home to many untouched ruins with an unknown origin. Within these ruins are objects simply referred to as Artefacts. Artefacts contain unknown powers and all seem to hold their own capabilities and magicks. The exploration of these ruins and retrieval of these artifacts are the main goal of the adventurers of Acrar. (It’s basically the fabled "American dream" of this world) The Artefacts are oftentimes sold at high prices to wealthy buyers. Some of the first who retrieved an Artefact was the adventuring party that is now in charge of the nation of Acrar. Though their leadership abilities of a large nation are obviously lacking and the citizens can tell as taxes begin to rise and wars begin to be waged over apparently nothing and then dropped the next week. Tensions of the nation and the neighboring nations are high as the nation slips in and out of hostility. Within the border, those that aren’t affected by the higher taxes are ignorant to the issues that plague the nation. What’s worse, some races of Acrar are having a hard time adapting to the newer, lax rule as slave trade run by the black market grows in power, making it progressively harder for their safety to be ensured. That all being said, those who live in Acrar may lack in technological knowledge but are very magically adept, most of them having at least a general grasp on how to cast cantrips for regular and personal use. Those who are normally learning magick’s at schools often only get to around the skill level of about 5th level unless they’re particularly and naturally adept. Those who get to the higher levels of magickal ability often become rich and powerful within the world, using magic to power the regular appliances and gadgets that most households end up holding. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; For the magic of everyday life, I am using the UA "Magic Tattoos" loosely. Additional Notes -&nbsp; Below I have a link posted for house rules and general rules for the game itself. Please read it before applying. To apply please send me the application to my discord: Ressykins#9122 I do have a little interview type of thing just to get a feel for the applying players and to make sure they’d fit. Oh yeah, Also, I love newer players as long as they think they could get into the roleplay of their character (That’s the main thing I care about, I don’t mind giving rule tips and reminders along the way). So don’t be discouraged from applying if you’re new!

Application Name/What you’d like to be called: Lee Age (It doesn’t matter much but I’ll ask regardless): 22 General Thoughts on a Character(s) that you might wanna play (Class/Background/etc): i actually have her background already typed up! I just need a group to play her in! FAELIEL ELANAE (Fae for short) Growing up in a brothel/inn, the half-elf Faeliel is no stranger to adventure. She's heard them a thousand different times from a thousand different people trying to impress the ladies of the inn. The stories never failed to captivate her and from a young age, she swore that one day SHE would have a fantastic life of adventure like the ones the adventurers told. Her family; consisting of her six adoptive "aunts" aka the brothel ladies, her elf mother, and her dwarven adoptive Ma, and Grandpa who was also the owner and barkeep, though at forst apprehensive, were always kind, humoring her pursuits. They figured this was just a wild fantasy of a young girl and that this dream would go away with time and their beloved (and spoiled) "Princess" of the inn would eventually settle down and run the inn as the rest of the staff aged, or better yet find herself betrothed to someone of immense power and wealth. Afterall, she was lovely, charming if not a bit vain and selfish, with a nice singing voice and a gift for the lute. It was no wonder she had admirers from all over. Wealthy ones at that. But Faeliel wasn't looking for that, not yet at least. She was still determined to have her grand adventure. So she tried to learn everything she could from the passing adventurers, but it was to no avail. She tried to become a ranger but was a terrible shot. She attempted to learn to fight but was too small to be a barbarian, and too reckless to be any other type of fighter. She wasn't stealthy like a rouge, or eager to learn like a sorcerer. All she had was her good looks and charm. It seemed fate had her penned for a boring life after all. It wasnt until she came home dragging the dead body of a large bear from the nearby woods that everyone realized that Faeliel was serious. Deadly serious. They begged her not to. Told her to look at the perfect, easy, life she was throwing away; a life she could be happy with. But it wasn't the life Faeliel wanted. She would never be satisfied. She wanted more. More than the simple life; and she'd do anything to get it. Even strike a deal, a deal that would cost her an eternity of servitude. Still, an afterlife living as one of many consorts of one of the most powerful demons ((Details can be discussed with DM)) couldn't be so bad, right? Especially in exchange for unrivaled power among mortals. Now all that was left was to find the adventure of her dreams and put said power to the test. Staying in Character (Just rate yourself 1-10 on how good you are at this): 5- I'm REALLY new but i think I can be in character or out of character depending on whether others in the group are in character as well. Otherwise i kind of default to talking about her in the 3rd person. Just gently reminding that *I* am her right now. ^^' My character and I are wildly different so you'll know if I'm in character or not. I also have no problem giving her an accent just to help differentiate and for the lols because i am awful at accents XD Additional Info?:
