Hello, currently looking for one or two more members aged 18 or older to join a 5e campaign that is currently a very very short ways in. New players are totally welcome! Sessions will take place according to player availability, and generally are starting around 9:00 PM PST right now, so they are late-night. The campaign description is as follows: "A pre-story to a planned campaign set in the Underdark. This campaign starts from level 3 and follows a group of evil-aligned adventurers on their quest to reach the Underdark for varying personal reasons, starting from the city of Waterdeep. A mysterious spell has washed over Waterdeep, putting all of its residents into an unwakeable slumber. Aside from a few sightings of cloaked figures in the area and a cryptic message to head for Velen, the exact cause and purpose of this spell is currently unknown. Campaign is run primarily through discord with use of roll20 for combat." As implied, this campaign will be leading into another, larger one starting at level 10 that is set entirely in the Underdark. We operate primarily through discord, so ability to join the discord group is necessary if you'd like to get involved! Current characters include a LE firbolg druid, a LE goliath barbarian, and a CE tiefling warlock. We're not looking for any specific roll to be filled, so you're welcome to create any character you'd like so long as they are not good aligned and have some motive to be traveling to the Underdark. House rules are as follows: - Intimidation will be categorized as a strength stat rather than charisma - Due to the nature of the Underdark and me not wanting to undergo a total party wipeout the moment we reach the place, races considered to be "common" are going to be a little different for this campaign. Encouraged character races include drow, half-drow, dwarves, deep gnomes, tieflings and feral tieflings. Because the native playable races to the underdark are quite limited, homebrew will be allowed in this campaign for converting other underdark creatures into playable races. Two that have already been pre-approved include illithids, found here: <a href="https://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Illithid_(5e_Race)" rel="nofollow">https://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Illithid_(5e_Race)</a> and myconids, found here: <a href="https://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Myconid_(5e_Race)" rel="nofollow">https://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Myconid_(5e_Race)</a> - Homebrew duergar pc's will not be allowed unless you can find me a version that seriously nerfs their enlarge ability - Evil alignments are strongly encouraged for this campaign, and good alignments are not allowed - If you get the opportunity to learn a language of your choice and don't already know it, I highly, highly recommend you take Undercommon. The level 10 campaign is going to be a nightmare without it - Rare languages can only be known if your character has a good reason to know them. If you are picking a language, the list that anyone can pick from without question will be Elvish, Dwarvish, Orc, Halfing, Gnomish, Giant, Goblin, and in this campaign, Undercommon - Your character must have a motive for trying to go to the Underdark - The campaign will start in Waterdeep, a city located on the west coast of Faerun. Your character will need some reason to be there, even if they are only stopping by - Experience will be awarded through a combination of combat and milestone. Because of this, exp gained from enemies will be halved - If you refuse to write out your backstory, I will have random people on the internet write one for you. It will not be good - Any inquiries regarding rewriting tabaxi as catgirls will result in immediate dismissal from the group If you're interested in joining the campaign, just reply to this thread requesting the discord link, and I'll send it over!
