I will say this at the beginning as I have received requests to join stuff I am not interested in. You do not need to read any of this if you are recruiting for a Non 5e game. Im not interested in any of the following: Non 5e, Homebrew campaigns, Tomb of Annihilation, Any campaign which you have heavily modified the core mechanics of DnD or added some weird crit mechanic cards that overrun the game. Instead of sending out 30 applications for games to which never get a response. Here is a single Application for any DM looking for a dedicated player. I will include all the information that repeatedly gets asked for. DM's pick me up if you need a player. Use this information to determine if I would be a potential good addition to your game, or not. If you ask me to go to your thread and post an application there, i'm just going to cut and copy this in your thread. I'm tired of creating individual ideas for each of your games and never getting a response. About Me: I am a 43 year old disabled and retired Army veteran. I have the luxury of time on my hands to dedicate to your campaign and story. I'm wanting to sink my teeth into the world you spent so much time creating. I want to love it as much as you do! I want to meet the other people you invited into the world and have danger thrown at us and figure out how to solve your mysteries and mazes, while figuring out how to get along with strangers and turn them into friends in and out of the narrative. I am serious, but I can laugh at a good joke (adding Yeet to the end of a sentence does not make it a joke). I speak English, not "Meme". What I am looking for: A fun group of welcoming players. Preferably not a "good ol'boys club" of life long friends, and I am the odd man out. I find that this causes for a lot of inside jokes to which i'm left sitting with a deer in the headlights look on my face, just waiting for the joke to end so we can move forward. A healthy Mix of Role play and Combat. I want to play with players that love their characters and put effort into creating them and exploring them and watching them grow. Not players that make meat puppets for their version of "Dungeons and Damage, the Diablo table top edition." Anyone can create a damage monkey. I want to play with a creative bunch of people. That being said, Its fun to actually fight with a character, so I am looking for combat aswell...just not a campaign centered around it, unless the campaign is Dungeon of the Mad Mage. Structure. I would like to find a group that meets once a week and where everyone shows up. I know everyone has a real life and that should always takes precedence. I would like to find a group where its not missing someone every single week due to a Headache, stress, sick..ect..ect...Its no fun when the group is ALWAYS missing someone. A group that is looking for someone who wants to play the game! I love sitting around and telling "and one time i did this.." type stories, but I want to do that before or after the game. When the DM starts the game...lets play the game! Looking for an actual Sanctioned Campaign. I will include the list of stuff i'm looking for down below...spoiler, its mainly Curse of Strahd. Example Campaigns: Curse of Strahd , Dungeon of the Mad Mage, Storm King. Any of the most recent and newer ones. What I am Not looking for: Incredibly slow Leveling. I'm not looking for a power campaign where we level up each session. But being in the same group for 5 months and only going from level 3 to 5 is unacceptably slow. I need something new to play with every once in a while. The same old toys month after month gets stale. Not looking for special home brew mechanics that take over the game. Unique home brew rules can be fun. But if your "new" home brew stuff is causing players to die, then your home brew rules are writing the story, and the players are not. Not looking for a home brew campaign, only pre made modules. My Availability: Any time, Any day What I would like to play: Character wise: Cleric or Paladin. Race: Half Elf or Minotaur Why: I am disabled in real life after years spent in combat. I want to spend my time healing and protecting people when i get the chance to roleplay. Something i didnt get the chance to do in real life. For me, Role play is a form of Therapy. Campaign wise: I'll be honest, i'm really only interested in Curse of Strahd . However, i am willing to consider something else. NO Tomb of Annihilation and No Homebrew made up stuff. If its not Curse of Strahd, then another official module. Experience with DnD : I've played on and off since the early 2000's. The most I've played was in 3.5e. I only have 75 hours played on Roll20 and 5e.
