Hey Jimmy, I'm currently running several groups through a 5th edition homebrew game. I would be happy to teach all of you the ropes and get you going in a dynamic, unique D&D world where we meet for weekly games. I'll paste the game info below, hope to hear from you and good luck! Our story begins in city of Highguard, where a caravan is assembling to make a journey to the nearby frontier town of Chaur. Normally, this would be an easy trip, but recent attacks from hobgoblin forces have left several caravans looted and burning. In response, the caravan has brought in mercenaries to help with the trip, offering them coin and passage in return for assistance protecting the caravan’s cargo and people. This is where you come in, a skilled adventurer who needs to get to Chaur, and could use a little extra money for your troubles. But take care, because this simple escort job may reveal a much more dangerous problem that threatens the safety of this border town and the simple people trying to survive on the frontiers. About Me I’ve been playing D&D for close to thirty years, primarily as a Dungeon Master. For most of that time, I’ve designed and run my own world on a weekly basis. I also worked in the video game industry and for Wizards of the Coast. If you're looking for a weekly, reliable DM with decades of experience and a proven track record with many happy players and many successful games, I'm the DM for you! I’ve been using roll20 for about six years and am very familiar with the platform. In addition to D&D (2nd through 5th), I’ve run Pathfinder, Dungeon World, Gurps, Star Wars, Shadowrun, and Amber (though admittedly, my knowledge and experience running these is much more limited compared to D&D). I love storytelling and game design, I often try to come up with new and unique mechanics to make the games I’m running more fun (though don’t worry, for this game, we’re mostly sticking to RAW). My Style I like to define my style as structured sandbox. I have events taking place in the world which I insert players into and see how they change things. I enjoy working with and around player back stories, incorporating them into my world and giving their actions weight and substance so the player can feel like they’re part of a living, breathing world. Combat is important in my games, but there is also value to skills and RP ability as those can have a huge impact on the story. I generally try to keep the game running smoothly. If there’s a rule disagreement, I may attempt to look up the answer or I may make a calling and try to keep the story going. If this happens, I appreciate players who can accept the call and speak to me about it later if it really bothers them. The World Gaian is a world strongly connected to the flows of magic that is constantly undergoing change. For an unknown reason, arcane fires ravage the surface of the world every four-thousand years, completely destroying anything in their wake. To save themselves, the races of the surface flee into the depths of Gaian, waiting for a time when they can re-emerge and rebuild their great societies. This destruction has created time periods known as cycles in which great civilizations rise and fall. Perhaps one day a hero will put a stop to these cataclysms, saving Gaian from the never-ending cycles of destruction. The world of Gain is a deep, rich setting that's about 20 years old (real time). As such, it has a lot of history spanning thousands of years with the rise and fall of many civilizations whose ruins can still be found deep underground or in abandon areas of the world. Players will not only adventure within the world, but their decisions may come to shape society for decades to come. This game will require payment to the Game Master at a rate of $12 per person for a three-hour session made through PayPal. Roll20 is not responsible for any payment transactions and cannot enforce any private arrangements.
