LFG D&D 5e -- Days Vary -- Central time

July 9 Update: I'm not sure how to edit the title of my post so I'm editing here. I just checked my schedule/had things added this weekend. I am now unavailable the next three weekends because of Magic tournaments and personal business. The next time I'm free on Sunday is August 5.  Free nights:  Currently, Monday, Friday. Every other Tuesday as well (I could join a game on July 10, 24, August 7 rhythm).  ****************** Greetings and thanks for reading my post. My name is Aaron and, while I've had a Roll20 account for approximately a year, I have yet to play using this site.  A little about me , I'm 43 and have been gaming for about...30 years? 31? 32 years? I'm in the central time zone (Minnesota. Not a native Minnesotan and I do not have that ridiculous Fargo accent. Ever seen the movie? You know what I mean). I'm a Roll20 novice, so I may need some coaching. I do have a Discord account that I set up and don't use...Ummm, what else. I do play Magic: The Gathering competitively. Which is to say I do travel to tournaments from time to time. No, I'm not famous. No, I'm not a pro. I just like to do it. This may impact my ability to attend weekend scheduled games from time to time.  Web Cam? Uhhhh, does the one above my laptop screen count? Headphones? Yup. I have a Sony Platinum headset I just bought.  Experience:  I started playing Basic D&D and moved to Expert, Advanced, Advanced 2nd Edition (skipped 3-4) and have started playing again using D&D 5e. In fact, I currently DM a group of 7 people on Tuesday evenings (every other week, next sessions is July 17), I'm currently playing in a Storm King's Thunder campaign on Wednesdays and I DM for the D&D Adventures League on Thursday evenings for a local store. I have played D&D, Cthulu (from the late 80s/90s), Paladium, TMNT, Rifts, GURPs, Car Wars, Paranoia, Vampire, Werewolf, Marvel Superheroes, DC Heroes, Battle Tech, Shadow Run, Twilight: 2000 (and a bunch of other GDW stuff), Star Wars from way back in the day, and more. So, yes, I'm experienced. What I'm looking for (D&D 5E preferred): I'm looking for a weekly or bi-weekly game that I can join. While I enjoy joking around, I'm not looking for slapstick goofing off or murder hobo games. I'd like something consistent and lasting as far as a campaign with 5e. Would you like to recruit me for something else? Well, send a message and we can chat. I'm not against trying something new/different, but I'd rather stick to 5e. Free nights: Currently, Monday, Friday. Every other Tuesday as well (I could join a game on July 10, 24, August 7 rhythm).  What I want to play (class): Actually, completely open on this front. Does the party need some healing? Sure, I can play a cleric. But it'll be a war cleric because I like to get into combat too. Rogue? Sure, I'm down for sneaking and stabby stabby stuff. Bard? Ohhhhh yeah. I'll bust out some 80s tunes for my bardic inspiration. Hey, if you want me to play a bard you're getting what I give. Tank? I played a lot of fighters/paladins when I was younger. Not against it now, in fact I'm playing a paladin in the Wednesday night group, just saying it's not foreign to me. Mage? Sure. I can run away at the first sign of combat with the best of them. Whatever is needed.  In closing, there you have it. Interested? Great! PM me.  Thanks again for reading my post and I wish you happy gaming.  Aaron  

Well I am running a campaign on Sundays at 1pm Mst time. The setting is in a continent called Zothar and is currently only taking place in and near a "home base" city. You would be apart of a government investigative squad out to hunt down and stop necromancy. All Necromancy (no matter the spell) is illegal and when people die they turn into an undead if not given the proper death ritual. If this sounds interesting to you I would be happy to have you join. My only real requirement is that you show up on time and if you can't do that give me notice beforehand.

Hi Dale, I just checked my schedule/had things added this weekend. I am now unavailable the next three weekends because of Magic tournaments and personal business. The next time I'm free is August 5.  I'm editing my post to reflect the unknown of when I'm available on the weekends.  Sorry for any confusion or inconvenience.  Thanks, Aaron

Okay. How do you feel about text only Play-by-post? Gets around all the scheduling problems, and if I get this going, every character would be afflicted with the 'phase virus/curse' which means that if you have to leave the game early, or if you miss some posts, your character will be "phased out" and safe. World = Like Earth (using Google Map images), only after a 'alien' invasion that has resulted in a world-wide domination by what look like the centaur idea applied to smallish (3' long, 4' tall) tigers. In most cities, normal humans continue their lives mostly as before, unable to see or interact with, or resist the occupying invaders (a la They Live),, but a few cities are designated "hunting zones" (The tiger-taurs cannot mate until just after a challenging, successful hunt), where they bring a good lot of normal humans, shrink them down to 1/12th normal size (which tends to drive them insane) and releasing them to roam about the city, unseen by the normal humans who live there. Around 3% of these tiny-men 'wake up', return to a sane mindset, and notice that while their eight has greatly reduced, their  has not, so they can reliably jump 80'. they have to find other awakened-ones to coordinate with, and try to 'take the battle' back to the on-vacation-while-hunting Tiger-taurs. strength. ....Hmmm, this is sounding specific enough to actually make a group with....

Thanks for the assist GenKitty!
