Name: Jay Age: 23 Pronouns: She/Her Experience: 5 years of dnd experience Expectations:When, it comes to games. I look for a thrilling game that has a decent amount of lore and world-building. I want the world the game to be an enriching experience in terms of story and I want it to be engaging as I play. I want the npcs and pcs to feel multifaceted and three dimensional with their own in depth personalities, backstories, quirks and faults. I also prefer a game where I feel as though I have real agency in my choices. What I mean is that, I want a world that allows for me to have free reign to give it that open world feel. Naturally, I expect that world to have consequences, both negative and positive for certain actions to add to the realism. If I am intelligent and or cunning in my decision making then I like to be rewarded. Likewise, if I do something brash and careless, I expect to suffer the consequences. I want a world where I feel as though my agency has great influence in plot advancement and provides me with many opportunities for character development. Essentially, I want a game with great verisimilitude that I can fully immerse my character in. I am interested in ttrpgs due to the roleplaying.My favorite aspect of dnd is roleplaying. I love being able to create my own character from scratch and be able to have an active role in the events that unfold in this interactive story. It's such an immersive and enjoyable experience that grants me complete agency over my own actions in a game . I feel as though I am an active writer in a shared interactive story that can be heavily influenced based on my own decisions. But, I also appreciate how despite the high fantasy there is a sense of realism in how events unfold based on my decisions. There are consequences to my decisions so I have to be careful in the choices I make in order to achieve the results I desire. Another aspect of dnd that I admire is the endless possibilities of outcomes that can be achieved through proper roleplaying. For example, if I am a strength weak rogue who wants to destroy a wall that contains secret treasure, but the team's strength character is a paladin who is disinterested in material things, I can just used deceit to convince them that behind the walls are important documents regarding the mission that are written in an arcane language. If the check works then I have accomplished my task easily. However, this will like cause tension between both players. Which goes to my next topic. I love being able to create unique character dynamics among playable characters as that adds a whole new dimension to the interactive experience. Having complex character dynamics between playable characters is fascinating to me because it can directly affect how well the party intermingled amongst themselves as well as the stability of the party itself. It can also be a great way of the intricacies of human relationships in the sense that I partake in different character relationships and directly effect how they change and grow with my own actions. I'm an amateur writer and my stories tend to be more character driven so I'm very invested in the examination of relationships and personalities from a psychological perspective. Roleplaying is my favorite part of dnd because it gives me an opportunity to escape reality and use my imagination to create a wide variety of characters while engaging in storytelling with other players in an entertaining fantasy environment with endless possibilities of how I choose to play a role in the plot.
