Frequently Asked Questions “What? When? Where?” I’m running D&D 5th edition (core books only). The game will be conducted via voice-chat using Discord. My availability is Saturdays, with flexible start times between 10 AM and 6 PM (Pacific Standard). "What's the group size?" I'm shooting for 3 to 5 players. “How long will the campaign last?" I’d like to run a long-term campaign, but ultimately it will depend upon player interest. “What setting are you using?” It’s a relatively custom setting, but with very familiar tropes. PCs represent exceptional figures -- not the norm. Let’s call it “mid-fantasy.” Think more Excalibur and Lord of the Rings, rather than World of Warcraft and Forgotten Realms. Also, no monks. No Kung Fu, Fists of Fury, Ninja Turtles, Dragon Ball Z, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon character concepts. “Do you have any character creation guidelines?” Yes. See Character Creation below. “What do I do if I'm going to be late or absent?” Let the group know -- the sooner the better. PCs of absent players won’t be included in the session, and consequently won’t earn XP for the session. If a session has less than 3 attending players, the session will be cancelled. “What if I disagree with the DM?” I strive to be fair and consistent. Disagreements should be discussed outside of a game session, not during. Ultimately, I’m a fan of the players. I want you to succeed. But success without struggle isn’t very meaningful. Character Creation Starting Level At the beginning of a campaign, all PCs start at 1st level. If a PC dies during a campaign, they may create a new character at the level of the lowest level PC in the party. PC Alignment No evil or neutral characters. PCs are heroes, even if they’re a scoundrel with a heart of gold. Ability Scores Distribute the following scores: 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15. Races You may choose any of the races from the PHB, except for drow, dragonborn and tieflings. These races exist, but not as PC races. Classes PCs may choose any class from the PHB, except for monks. Feats & Multiclassing Feel free to use feats and multiclassing. Starting Equipment You may opt for either the stock items provided by class and background, or roll for gold and purchase all of your equipment. But not both. About Setting Yor is a large, remote island on the world of Pelandria. The island is surrounded by stormy seas, and lies about 70 days northwest of Megala -- a much larger continent. Human colonists from the Megalan Empire settled Yor over 600 years ago. Resentful of a distant and demanding emperor, the colonists fought and won their independence. The colonies expanded and coalesced into two major kingdoms, Paragorn and Rathmyr, which have ruled for nearly five centuries.

I'm more interested in people who are a) interested in a mix of RP and action, and b) are more interested in playing D&D with friends than arguing over rules. About Me I'm a 39-year old software developer living in the beautiful Northwest. I enjoy reading, writing, programming, and gaming. My best friend is a cat named Shrody.
