[LFP] [D&D 5E] [Saturdays/?] DM looking for players willing to play a RP heavy campaign. Europe timezones.

Hello Gents, My name is Greg, I am 30 years old and I played and DM'ed RPG games for the last 15 years. I am currently looking for a group of 4 players willing to play in a campaign, which is a sequel to a campaign which I brought all the way from lvl 1 to 20 over the span of 2 years. This would take place 15 years after the events of my previous campaign, which will serve as a background for the action here. Your characters and their actions will then, in turn, become a background for my next campaign. I usually lean more to the RP side and get bored with endless dungeon crawls, but I like a fight or two each session as well. A bit about the world: Its been fifteen years since the powerful Lich Svarteld was defeated and the undead plague has been completely eradicated. The world could heal from four hundred years of dark ages, where the arcane magic was banned (Only mages sanctioned by the church of the Ever-burning Lady could practice it, and even then they were detested). The Inquisition of the Amber Flame slowly loses its grasp over the world. Once the Lich has been defeated they are no longer necessary and faith in the old gods begins to resurface. Long lost cities which were quite recently festering with the undead are now free to explore. There are libraries from the golden age, temples with secrets old forgotten that now need to be brought to light. Lesser races, like elves and dwarves are no longer forced to live in ghettoes. The world heals. The old northern empire of Valja, crippled during the dark ages, tries to reclaim its provinces and grow to its former glory (Think a mix of Vikings and the Roman empire). But its no easy tasks. Once the undead have dissipated its as if a great burden was taken off of the shoulders of the world. Off the shoulders of everyone. Orcs, bugbears and other beasts resurface to wage war with humanity. Mountain barbarians raid the farmlands and smaller kingdoms and city states are quick to wage war against each other. Its a world of rapid change. The campaign will start small and local and we will see where it takes us from there. There are probably a lot of details that I should flush out and will do so in proper time. As of right now I just need volunteers! The campaign will be voice only through discord. If you are interested please respond to this post by writing some basic information: Personal info: Name Age Personal experience with D&D (New players welcome and encouraged!) When you would be willing to play (Saturday is best but other days would be ok as well) Character info: Class and race you want to play Some backstory. You can be as detailed as you want. But prepared to change things to fit the world. If you want to keep your backstory more of a secret you can PM me.
This will be for both my wife and I as I tend to DM games, but we're looking for a game where we can both be players. Names: Daniel and Lizet Age: Both 26 Personal Experience: I have over 10 years experience with DnD and tabletop games, while primarily being a DM. While Lizet has about a year experience with DnD. Preferred  Time: Any time Saturday is fine, closer towards the afternoon would probably be for the best. But we're free all Saturday or Sunday, then evenings any week day. We are on CST Class and Race: We are both looking to play High Elves, with myself being a Celestial Pact Warlock. And her being a Divine Soul Sorcerer. Basic Backstory: Being a young elf during the end of the plague, our villages were among the last of those ravaged and decimated. It was in those dark moments where salvation seemed far, that there would be no tomorrow for all those I had known as the ghettos were torn apart by the undead. I had been sitting hiding inside my hovel, praying and beseeching any god that would hear me. Any being that would grant that salvation. That call would be answered by some greater celestial being (As of yet undecided we could work on something that fits well in universe). Not knowing if it was pity that it took upon me, or if it intended to use me as a tool of its own justice. In that moment it didn't matter as the powers it granted to me allowed me to break through the undead hordes to flee away from the ghettos into safety. It was then during that flight from danger that I heard the cries of another young elf in danger. Somehow another survivor of the unsettling carnage. Against perhaps any better judgement I charged through the undead into this besieged hovel finding only a young elf, no other corpses. Not knowing if it were her parents had fled or were slain. In that moment that didn't matter either. Doing what I could I snatched her from the devastation. Making our way as far from the ghettos as we could muster. During this it was I discovered how it was she was able to survive this as I had. Her soul had been touched by a being perhaps even higher than that, that had granted me its patronage. I had known what that had meant for us. Being elves, having such powers. And so we fled. Though eventually the news of the end of the undead plague had reached our ears. After many years of being on the run, finally perhaps we could find a place that we could begin to make our own path. We've tried to keep our backstories somewhat vague so that we may fit it within the world. Though if our character concepts don't quite fit in this universe we of course would be willing to rewrite or come up with different concepts for characters if need be.
Name: Jacob Age: 38 Personal experience with D&D: Well with D&D I started with AD&D when I was nine and have played all editions since then and have ran game from edition 3e, 3.5e, (not 4e because I didn't like it) and three games in 5e. When you would be willing to play: Saturday morning or early evening works best for me any time form 6am to 4pm CST   Character info:   Class: Cleric (not sure what kind but it's a class I have yet to play as)  Race: Human (unless we are allowed races beside the core then I would love to play a Centaur)   Some backstory: Basic idea, a traveling youngster from a far off village willing to help other in need along their way with the aid of their god/goddess.   Some secret reason has driven them from their home (to be determined later with gm input).   Seeking some way to regain their standing upon their people either with accomplishing a great dead or discoverer a long lost ancient artifact of significance to their people.

Name: Richard Age: 21 Personal Experience with D&D: I have been both GM and player for a few systems with this game. Having around 3 years of experience with this game.  When will you be willing to play: Saturday before 7pm or Sunday anytime.  Character info: Class: Paladin Oath of Devotion, Human Some Backstory: Born into a noble family whose land was stolen some time during the dark ages. Raised with three other siblings and being the second oldest, Oskar spent much of his time helping to raise his younger siblings while his older brother became a star to their father. Oskar would along with his older brother take up the quest of going out to once again find their long lost home and restore their glory. But when it came time for another of his younger sibling to join, Oskar took his little sister with him on the quest. Along their travel they explored the ruins of the world, but in once such area's they were ambushed and Oskar lost his younger sister in a tide of flesh and steel leaving Oskar with the image of his little sister being ripped apart. Unable to return home in his anger he placed on his families' quest, Oskar lost the purpose he had in his life. So he isolated himself and but would eventually find purpose in some of the old gods. Ready to do what it takes to honor his new faith and regain some purpose in his life.
Jacob 26 A handful of sessions played in PathF.  Couple hundred hours of playtime in 5e. (then a ton of Deathwatch and Edge of the Empire[starwars]) All day Saturday and Sunday. Character info: Pretty flexible, I like playing Barbarians, Rogues, and Clerics, but willing to switch it up to whatever the group may need to be more rounded.  Depending on what would be more fun in the story, either a Halfling or a Human are pretty easy to slip into.
Personal info: Name Jorik van der Veek Age 25 Personal experience with D&amp;D: Less then a year Started playing last years June When you would be willing to play: Saturday passed 2 PM CET i can always play and sunday i'm also free most of the day.

Some backstory. &nbsp;Never known his parents Darion was raised on the streets. Helping criminals with petty jobs and just scrounging to survive.

Yet after spending two years outside the kingdom he came back with the Headquarters empty and his liaison missing. His main goal to figure out where every one went and what happend.

Name : You can call me Ryo! :) Age: I am 24 years old! Personal experience with D&amp;D: I am fairly new. I have only played roughly 3 sessions in my entire life haha. :P When you would be willing to play: I am free everyday at pretty much any given time. As long as I would be told ahead of time then i would make it work! : ) Character info: Class and race you want to play: I would like to play an Elven Ranger or a Half Elf//Dragonborn Sorcerer! : ) Some backstory: I have quite a lot of information that I could put into a backstory, I would rather discuss it in person though. Especially since I want to make sure it would be a good fit for your world rather than mashing random ones out of no context hehe. PS. Thanks for reading! :)
If there are still openings, would love to join. Ben 29 new to D&amp;D.&nbsp; Familiar with online games. I've bought a few of the guides from D&amp;D Beyond to learn how to play + watching Critical Role. GMT+1 time zone.&nbsp; Anything after 6pm weekdays.&nbsp; Weekends during the day are best. Character info: Half-Orc Forge/War Cleric or Human Grave Cleric Half-Orc Forge/War Cleric (Mutare) - Born in a small mountain town of an unwilling union between a human priestess and orc pillager.&nbsp; Rather than leaving her son in the mountain to die, Mutare's mother raised him as her own as her faith would not allow a newborn to be left to die.&nbsp; Thus Mutare grew up ostracized by the common townsfolk and loathing his orc heritage.&nbsp; This, in addition to the influence of his mother, drove him to becoming very religious, questioning his purpose and looking for strength from god.&nbsp; As he grew older, the townsfolk talk turned to fear that the orcish bloodlust made him a hazard to the town.&nbsp; Then when he turned 17, another raid once again hit the town attacking the temple and upon seeing an orc descending on his mother attacked and killed the orc in a red haze.&nbsp; Realizing that his blood may really be a hazard, Mutare picked up the weapons of the fallen orc, bid his mother farewell and left hoping he could protect those he cared for better outside the walls of a temple than within. A little Boondock Saints mentality. Human Grave Cleric (Dorian) - I haven't fleshed out a backstory but my thought was a cross between Dandelion in the Witcher and Alan Watts the philosopher.&nbsp; Someone who does not believe death should be feared but rather embraced as a natural part of life.&nbsp; They distrust modern medicine thinking they profit off the fear of death.
Thank you for your applications. As of right now I have a full team and am closing the application process. I will however reopen it if someone drops out or wont show up for a session, then i will go thorugh the latter applicants and PM them chronologically. If you will still be interested in future we will talk.
