Username:    synwrath82 Time Zone:   PST Player Exp:   Started with 3rd Edition, dabbled in a little 5th, mostly joined in homebrew. Character Concept:       Class: Hunter / Druid      Race: Ancient Human (Lycanthrope)     Background: Searching for those responsible for the destruction of the temple he was to protect. Looking for:   Good, attention keeping story, decent action and world and character detail, flexible time(s).

Your Name/Username Time Zone: MST Experience Level: Experienced older player (versions AD&D second edition and 5e) Character Concept:  I like playing clerics, rogues and wizard types; elf or half elf but not exclusively; backstory: running away from incurred debts and possibly has debt collectors on his heels. Seeking work through legal or possibly nefarious means. What You Look for in a D&D Campaign: I'm interested in cooperative in game tactics and  role play and off-line rp in discord chat between sessions. I'm shite at accents and voices.

Your Name/Username: (ColonelOctane) (super_scifi_guy) Time Zone: (U.S Eastern.) Experience Level: (Experienced 3 or so years. Have DM'd before.) Character Concept: (Beast Master Ranger. Traveling nomad who rescued a animal when it was young and has raised it themself while fighting to survive the wilderness.) What You Look for in a D&D Campaign: (A steady game with lots of interactions and player involvement, knowing my decisions will make a impact.)

Will send a DM, but also posting here for visibility Your Name/Username: Rhesh Time Zone: CST, but can work with any US time zone. 5:30 EST will work for me (4:30 CST for me, I get off work at 4PM but should have no problem getting here on time) Experience Level:  Experienced, played quite a bit a few years ago and am looking forward to playing the new 2024 5E ruleset Character Concept:   Rhesh the Belligerent, and orc barbarian (Berserker subclass - Guard background) who moonlights as a mercenary for hire. Will do (or kill) anything if there's money in it. Chaotic Neutral, will never turn down a fight - or a drink. What You Look for in a D&D Campaign: Decent combat, boss fights, some puzzles to solve to scratch an itch, love to roleplay as the typical barbarian. Hoping to play with a friend that will post here soon, possibly as a brother/friend. We've played D&D together for years as a DM/Player experience, and long for a chance to both play D&D together without being one another's DM.

Your Name/Username Dylan Time Zone EST, no issues with session time-frame  Experience Level (New players are 100% welcome!) No experience with the 2024 updated rules, but pretty extensive experience as a DM and a player with the original set of rules. I haven't used roll 20 in a hot minute, but I have over a thousand hours so I should be able to get back into the swing of it pretty quickly. Character Concept (Class, race, a quick idea for backstory—doesn’t need to be final!) It really depends on everyone else honestly, I don't like to come with a preconceived notion of my character until we start to talk about it. I usually like to roll a couple of dice to randomize some things and then I go from there. I will  typically pick a class that supports the rest of the team, since I'm pretty flexible. My process is usually to figure out where the character comes from, preferably by two dice that randomizes X and Y coordinates or if you have a place in mind, then I will typically roll or pick a race depending on where they come from. After that I will figure out personality and motivations, and then I can figure out a brief backstory or at least a couple of events that push them towards those motivations or personality traits. I tend to pick the class last, as it usually is informed by everything that comes before that. What You Look for in a D&D Camp aign Roleplay, character progression and story progression. I like to interact with the other players and the world or situation to help create something that seems pretty plausible and interesting. The Tactical aspect of combat is fun, but not super important to me.

Your Name/Username: swampedbybunnies Time Zone: GMT Experience Level  ; since White Box ..... have played many games with many systems, though not bought 2024 version Character Concept : I'll really play anything other than a cleric/ druid type. I prefer flexible 2 line backstories which give the GM as much as they want to work with. A simple caravan or merchant guard sounds fine, with the 'background' trait having happened a year or two in the past. What You Look for in a D&D Campaign: reliable GM and players, which are hard to find on r20. Other than that a consistent story, and coherency in the world.

Your Name/Username Sunny Time Zone EST (GMT-5) Experience Level  Never played 5e, played many other systems and a ton of D&D 3.5 Character Concept  I've been drawn to Tieflings, but idk what all else I can do in 5e. Bard maybe? What You Look for in a D&D Campaign Chill vibes, no 'life and death,' 'seriously-serious' players. Lots of RP moments, not just combat. Routine games (ie: frequency/consistency).

Your Name/Username: Shadeakira {Phin}     Time Zone same as game time, may be late depending on wife work. Experience Level  10+ former DM, would really like to be a player Character Concept  Willam Sharp, Sorcerer/warlock leaning to warlock, he messed up a spell as an apprentice so in order to get home he made a deal with a Archfey princess. What You Look for in a D&D Campaign Roleplay and spice of combat. Willam is a talker and thinker, but he isn't afraid to throw an eldritch blast out when needed.
