Hello everyone, We recently had someone drop for real life circumstances, and I am looking for any vocal players who aren't afraid of voice RP really love to absorb themselves in their characters and immerse themselves in the world. The world itself is rather dark, but I wouldn't say the game is humorless, just a generally dark setting. As mentioned, this is an ongoing campaign, but we are still in the introduction, so you won't miss out on much by joining now! Timeslot is usually 12:30PM/1:00PM Eastern Standard, and runs until 4:00PM-5:00PM Eastern Standard on Saturdays. The setting is in the 5th Age of this world. There was a prophecy, long ago, that said each age would end with an apocalyptic cycle, a calamity to end one age and bring about the next. There were supposed to be 5 ages, and we might very well be on the sixth. An apocalyptic event had devastated the world, but the mortal races persisted. 200 years later, some say the 5th Age is still ongoing, others say they are past it, but civilization has somewhat recovered and life moves on. Kingdoms and former powers are much reduced in size, and warlords, bandits, and other darker things now infest the devastated areas of the world, making things such as travel very dangerous, particularly at night. The story as it is takes place in the Kingdom of Heide, in the Grand Dutchy of Rivalin. The Duke of Rivalin has seen fit to sponsor an expedition to the "Ashen City", a large city that was destroyed during the apocalypse and has become a focal point for all sorts of dark things. When the undead, wrathful spirits, leftovers from the apocalypse aren't trying to kill you, other 'adventurers' are just as dangerous. The Ashen City was the former seat of power of an immeasurably wealthy noble house, and 1,000 men have been organized to attempt to loot it, even when armies have failed to retake the territory before. You would be a member of this expedition for your own reasons, though I would be happy to speak to you about further particulars. We do have a wiki for the world: <a href="https://vala.fandom.com/wiki/Realms_of_Vala_Wiki" rel="nofollow">https://vala.fandom.com/wiki/Realms_of_Vala_Wiki</a> for further information about background. It's a homebrew setting but we run it on 4th Edition Warhammer Fantasy. I should advise that the world has some pretty dark themes; some people are racist and xenophobic, this is not a 'socially just' world, so if you want everything to be a fun adventure where all species of the world are still rough human analogues like Critical Roll or contemporary Baldur's Gate, this isn't going to be a game you're going to enjoy. It's a dark and violent world. We have a specific lore and I do politely request that it be respected; no importing characters with histories rooted in the Forgotten Realms or species that do not belong. Please feel free to message me here if you're interested or on discord @SagaciousRo. Thank you for your time!
