Already have five players, looking to pick up 1 more! We'll be running the full, new adventure, Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus. The adventure is expected to span levels 4-13 (but we may possibly go higher than that!) and should bring us from the city of Baldur's Gate into the very Nine Hells where we'll face devils and demons. We already had our session 0, but there's still time to join! First session is 10/23 @ 7pm EST <a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/178095/baldurs-gate-descent-into-avernus" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/178095/baldurs-gate-descent-into-avernus</a> __________________________________________________________ My
name is Dan, I am 26 years old, and I've been playing/dungeon mastering
Dungeons & Dragons for about 7-8 years now. That time has brought a
lot of experience that has helped me to develop my style of play. I
will aim to adjust things based off of the players, but generally I love
roleplaying and acting out interesting characters. With combat, I aim
to provide more meaningful, unique fights and scenarios (as opposed to:
"Here's 3 goblins. You fight. Repeat.") __________________________________________________________ WHAT I OFFER YOU Reliability: I will be ready to go and begin playing at the time we set for our games (barring emergencies). Availability:
I will be easily accessible for all of your questions and/or chatting.
We will have a group chat in discord (which we'll also use to
voice/video chat during games!), which I can also be easily reached
through during the rest of the week. Play How You Want:
Ever wanted to have a really in-depth roleplaying experience where you
get to immerse in your character, the story, and the world? Or maybe
you're uncomfortable doing a voice and acting in character too much;
you're here to kill monsters, get magic items and joke around with
friends. Maybe you really want to play a dungeon crawl. Or maybe you
have no idea how to even start! That's fine! Dungeons & Dragons
should be about having fun. If you're not having fun, why play? I'll
work with you to run the kind of game that's going to appeal to you. Effort and Experience:
I love Dungeons & Dragons and find myself frequently thinking up
ideas in my free time to make my players' games more interesting.
Encounters, magic items, monsters, character quests, and so on. Even
when I'm running a prewritten module, I'm not content to keep it that
simple. I put in the extra time to add things to the adventure to
provide a different experience, even if you've already played the
adventure before! ___________________________________________________________ PRICES This
game will require payment to the Game Master at a rate of $15/session
per person. Payments will be made via PayPal. Roll20 is not responsible
for any payment transactions and cannot enforce any private
arrangements. ___________________________________________________________ HOMEBREW/THIRD PARTY CONTENT "What's homebrew?"
Well this is content that isn't part of an official D&D release. I
do not have an issue with homebrew (in fact, I will have 100% peppered
homebrew magic items, characters, events, and more throughout your
game!), but when it comes to homebrew classes and races (with the
exception of Matt Mercer's Blood Hunter class and some Unearthed Arcana
material), it's more work for me to accommodate them in a normal game.
Not only that, but balance concerns can cause issues I also have to
figure out. Now that said, if you were having me run a homebrew
campaign for you (meaning I'm constructing a campaign for you, as
opposed to working off of a pre-written module) then I do not mind
working with you to include some homebrew character options. As a matter
of fact, I have quite a few that I allow in my home games! ___________________________________________________________ WHAT I ASK OF YOU Respect: Everyone
is here to have fun! But if your fun is at the expense of someone else,
that isn't okay. Any bullying or harassment will get you removed from
the game. Feedback: Do not be afraid to let me know your
opinion of the game! What are you enjoying? What are you not? I
encourage you to be honest with me! I want to create the best experience
I can. Commitment: By deciding to do this, understand
what you are agreeing to. Unless you have another preference, any
campaign is likely getting played weekly, at a time that everyone has
agreed to set aside for this. Showing up late is taking away from the
time your party members also set aside. Also, understand a campaign
likely will last for a few months. It's a bit dependent on the campaign,
but it's also something we'll try to estimate beforehand! Headphones: Cutting out background noise (especially your speakers!) helps everyone hear each other better and is overall less distracting. ___________________________________________________________ WHAT DO YOU NEED? Nothing! Well almost:
You just need to download Discord and create a free Roll20 account!
It's much more reliable for voice chat (or video chat! Whatever you're
comfortable with) and will prevent Roll20 from having to use more
resources (as it is a browser app). ___________________________________________________________ WHY PAY TO PLAY? The
reality is, I can only run so many games before I need to rationalize
my time spent preparing and managing games. By doing it this way, I can
also afford to provide you with resources and adventures that streamline
things, help you use Roll20 with ease, and just overall provide the
more polished experience I strive for. As a player, you also see
some benefits of going this route. If everyone in your game is willing
to pay, you know they've got the desire to actually be invested in your
game. Having been in the hobby a while, it's not uncommon for people to
cancel or show up late on short notice. It can be frustrating. It's also
not uncommon for games to fizzle out. It can be draining on a DM if
they're putting in the effort. Payment is $15 USD per session,
paid via Paypal before each session. Before we start full sessions, I
will host a "Session Zero" for everyone. This first session is free. You
will all learn about the setup and background for the campaign, figure
out who your characters are, how your party came to be, and get a
general feel for my style of DMing. I am happy to refund your
payment if you're unable to make a game, as long as you've given me at
least 8 hours of notice prior to game time.
