EDIT: This post is now closed. Thank you for those of you who applied and if I have not gotten back to you yet, I will within a day. Have a great life! People of Roll20, hear me! Okay, now that the Matrix reference is out of the way, my
name is Joe and I am searching for 4-5 new people to consider the loves of my
life. My current group has been having
some scheduling issues and we have decided that the best route to take would be
to add more people to our 2-sessions-deep campaign. This campaign is starting off with Lost Mines
of Phandelver, and thus will also be great for new players. We will be forming a West Marches style of
sorts, but with only one DM (me) and much less players (8-10). This way, all the players can still be close
and we can form our own small, active community! Note that this also means that
you don’t have to be free every single week.
Now please, take this opportunity to read about our little group and
fill out your application! I look
forward to every one of your replies! :) Premise You are part of a group that is familiar with magic in a
nearly magicless world. This makes life
difficult, especially when the rulers of the world have made sure that magic is
hated when it does show up. People
resent it, taking advantage of every chance they have to undermine it. This will surely make your adventure
difficult along the way, even since you’ve adapted to such a cruel world. After defeating a small cave full of goblins, your group has
decided to continue on the quest given to you only a day prior: deliver the
supply wagon to Barthen’s Provisions in Phandalin, a quest given to you by a
dwarf named Gundren Rockseeker. However,
that might be a bigger problem than was originally intended, as Gundren’s
bodyguard that you found in the goblin cave has told you that the dwarf has
gone missing, captured by goblins. As
you approach Milltown, a town several miles upstream from Phandalin, you
wonder: just how deep will this supposed “short quest” take you? Campaign Features [NPCs With Depth]
Each NPC is fleshed out with a personality, appearance, profession,
background, and more. Earn favor with anyone you want in order to
gain more quest opportunities, treasure, and more! [RP] This
campaign is filled with roleplay scenarios with plenty of NPCs, some of which
might contain adult themes. Be prepared
to roleplay in any way you wish but be careful!
It isn’t all dew drops and sunshine in this world. [Political
Intrigue] It might not seem like it right now while you’re just sitting
around in smaller towns, but there is a political system controlling every
region. Trade information, power, and
blood to work your way up the system that has worked so hard to oppress you
your whole life. [A Complete
World] There is, indeed, a fully fleshed out map that contains this
campaign. However, this will be hidden
from you as you work your way through a world mostly unknown to you. [Grit and
Glory] We will be following certain rules from a subset called Grit
and Glory. See this link for more info. Not all rules will
be taken from it, but it will add a feeling of realism in the campaign. How to Apply The application is linked HERE . Please be sure to review all answers before
moving onto the next section. The hope is to have a session 0 of sorts on Wednesday, July
17 at 7 pm EST with the new players to see how everyone meshes with the current
players. This means I would like to
review applications by Monday, July 15.
However, if you see this post after then, feel free to still contact me!
My discord is Sloppy Joe #0690. We will be running a game every Wednesday at 7 pm EST. As I have stated before, you will not have to
attend every session, but please make sure you can still attend a good amount
of times. For Questions/Details Please feel free to contact me directly if you have any
questions regarding this campaign! I
have stated my discord above. It should be noted that I don’t have much of
a life so even if you just want details regarding the campaign, let me know! Mandatory Items Please have a good mic, as well as a voice. A voice is necessary. Be prepared to communicate through Discord.
Please have a voice. Things You Must Be Cool With -Do not metagame.
There is positive metagaming, such as discussing what to do in combat at
times and such, but you can always tell when metagaming is being harmful to a
group/story. -Humor. I love having
a serious story going on but I always try to be funny, and I’d like people in
my group to understand that and go along with it -FRIENDS. I want us to
build a group together where we can all hang out outside of DnD as well, just
talking/playing games, etc. -Flexible rulings. We
will be using different subsystems in tandem with each other. Please bear with me when I’m using rules. -Maturity. We need to
still have a mature group, where adult themes can find their place in our world
in order to make it feel more real.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO APPLY!! :)
