[LFP][PAID][D&D5e][ExperiencedDM][GMT/EST] "Adventures of Heimland" - Epic Sandbox Adventure Campaign/s!

1609440691

Edited 1612457845
Introduction Hey. My name's Sol and I'm searching for six new players to join a brand new campaign starting soon. I've been running D&D games for several years now, and more recently I have been running Paid Games. Currently I have two parties, one on Saturday and one on Sunday, and each group play in my homebrew setting on the same time-line, meaning it's a living, breathing world. I'm comfortable running a weekday game anywhere from 4PM GMT until 2AM GMT (Finishing time). So if anyone globally is comfortable with that time bracket, feel free to continue to enquire. (For East Coast NA, we're talking 11AM EST earliest, 9PM EST latest. I'm an avid roleplayer, and I enjoy doing voices and accents for my characters (though I do not require my players to do that unless they feel comfortable). I'm also going back to University in the all to get my Ancient History BA and perhaps go into teaching thereafter. I also used to be a full-time livestreamer, but I have more recently started focusing on paid DMing alongside other things. I also started a new small project in the forms of a D&D YouTube Channel, if any of you are interested in checking it out, feel free to click the link:  My YouTube Channel Current Groups: Saturday - Start time: 4PM GMT-9PM GMT - 1 slot available -  Saturday Game Roll20 Listing Sunday - Start time: 4PM GMT-9PM GMT - 0 slots available -  Sunday Game Roll20 Listing Weekday - Start time: Undecided - 6 slots available -  Weekday Game Roll20 Listing Campaign Theme "The Heroes join a torn landscape which has seen better times. The Kingdom of Valoria, a Feudal-Imperialistic Nation, has ruled over much of Heimland for more than two hundred years. The current king, King Lothar IV, is old and dying, and a level of stagnation that has never been seen before is slowly starting to rot away at this world. Corruption and Greed stains the nobility, whilst poverty, ignorance, and plague destroys the peasant class. War with the Elves and Orcs have weakened communities, and many yearn for peace in this so trying time. With many men off on campaigns, a new class of commoner has appeared; the Adventurer.  Adventurers have actually always been a thing, but in recent memory that have become something of more importance to society, whether that's capturing bandits, escorting caravans, or slaying monsters. Something big is coming towards Heimland, and only those with an aptitude for heroism will come out ontop. Will you be one of them?" I run Modular Adventures in this world, some that I've made, some that I've purchased online and use from other sources, which means you'll always get a high level of quality in story progression. I use a variety of maps, music, tokens, and systems to enhance your gaming experience, without taking away from your enjoyment. My world is completely sandbox, meaning that player can choose where to go and what they'd like to do. Be aware that my world does have master plots and a central tension, but it's up to you, the players, what you'd like to do and accomplish. I offer a variety of feats, skills, exploits, and powers to my players to make this experience one that is not so easily compared. I do have some homebrew rules, which can be discussed if interested in joining. I have an easy to read PDF with some homebrew rules that I find greatly increases the fun and player experience of my group/s. Magic is cooler and more interesting, combat is faster and more cinematic, and your characters are far more customisable in my games. My games are LGBTQ+ friendly, and welcomes adults of any age. Creating Your Character All players create their characters together in Session 0, with me the Dungeon Master present. You will be permitted to roll your stats, and take a few perks and benefits based on what race/class you decide to play. Players are encouraged to use the Life Events under Xanathar's Guide to Everything to create fluid, interesting characters without too much or too little paperwork. These life events offer players perks and boons, such as extra starting gold, an interesting plot hook, or even their own fresh riding horse at level 1. All of my players, old and new, love rolling events, as it can make for some truly interesting, wacky, and wonderful characters that the players can then write their backstories for. This world is Human-Central, similar to Matthew Colville's world, and focuses more attention on a number of races, rather than spreading out over many. The race options are listed below: Human (Vandals) Human (Valorians)  Human (Pharonese) Half-Elf (Alfaran) Dwarf (Nords) Dwarf (Ancient Dwarves) Halfling (Little Folk) Half-Breeds (Half Orcs) Payment My games are currently priced at $15 per session, with sessions lasting anywhere from 3 to 5 hours depending on the player's schedules. Session 0 is free, and I have no problem with players wanting to wait to see how the first session was before deciding to pay or not. Roll20 is not responsible for any payment transactions and cannot enforce any private arrangements. Applying Make sure you meet the requirements in order to join this game before applying: Aged 18 or over. Willing to play for 3-5 hours per week. Own a microphone of decent quality (no stutter, background noise, etc). Have Roll20. Have Discord. If you are interested, please either respond to this post and express your interest below, or contact me via Discord to move things forward quickly; My Discord is:  Solmund#3522. Hope to hear from you soon!
Post is officially setup and done, so we're now accepting applications. My Friday Players would like to do Session 0 sooner rather than later, so if anyone is interested in starting a campaign next week, feel free to post your interest below or DM me. :)
Just finished preparing my Saturday Session, and we do still have one slot available for the group. Anyone who is interested in joining is welcome to spectate, and see what all the fuss is about. I'm also accepting players for my Friday Game, which should be starting next week. Thanks!
OK I'm starting my session soon, if anyone is interested, they may be able to join next week, or perhaps even watch this week. Feel free to apply if interested. :)
One of Sol's Saturday players dropping in here, he definitely doesn't have a gun against my head while I am saying this but you should join his games :). Seriously though, Sol really is the real deal, the bee's knees, the creme de la creme! He's got a real vision for his world and it feels amazing to have such a coherent and consistent world to play in, can't recommend it highly enough! Oh and we NEED another player for backup because we're gonna get slaughtered next week, so hurry up! ;)
Thank you Elias! They definitely need a sixth player to join for next week, as the culmination of their first adventure is about to commence. Feel free to add me on Discord;  Solmund#3522 - And we can go from there!
Copying over a Testimonial from a previous post: Brodie, who plays Aurelien in my Sunday Group:  One of Sol's players on Sunday. Been part of a pretty regular group for the last year and a half (Abi, above, is another one of them). We go EVERY week, and have only had to replace 1 new player since I joined that year and a half ago; that alone should tell you that even with a bunch of 18+ players, everyone's enjoying it enough that we all make sure our Sundays are always free, and no-one is looking for excuses to leave or miss sessions. He's a great DM and knows how to incorporate everyone in to the game and story. He's good with the build and release of tension, and makes sure that while no reward comes without the effort to earn it, and no endeavour is without risk, there will always be a payoff eventually. He takes a lot of time and effort with you at character creation too to really make sure that your character will have a clear sense of place and purpose within the world (not just hurr durr I'm an adventurer, cus money), while still giving you a measure of freedom to make/play what you want. I've played in games where there was no challenge, or players were overwhelmed with easy rewards. Similarly I've played in meat grinder games where it feels like the DM just wants to torture and control players. Sol's campaigns tend to toe the line very nicely between those two, making sure that every venture is suspenseful, requires engagement and thought on the players parts, but has payoffs in some way for success and creativity. 10/10 would sign away every Sunday Evening again.
Just finished my Sunday Session, was a great session with a great encounter at the end! I'll be looking to start my Friday group next week if possible.
It's a new week, therefore we're amping up the recruitment. We're looking for one player for my Saturday Group that starts at 4PM GMT, and we're looking for a few players for Fridays. We're not yet decided on our start time on Fridays, so if you are interested, let me know what your availability is so we can schedule accordingly. Thanks!
Copying over a testimonial from a previous post: Abi, who plays Ophelia in my Sunday Group: "I've been a part of Sols games for a little over 2 years now, and prior to this i had very little knowledge about D&D. He was very quick to show me the ropes and explain how D&D could be more than just a game. His campaigns are well thought out, and are very in depth. They aren't just stories, its like taking part in a movie. Sol has a way of incorporating each and every character into his games, making them feel like a part of a thriving world that they were actually born in, instead of just a token on a shoddy map. Character creation is thorough, and makes it easy for you to build a character that you can enjoy playing.  Every single detail leads to a bigger plot; like a road with many twists and turns, Sols games are a thrill ride, and will leave you feeling nothing less than impressed.  If you're looking for a game that will not only be fun, enjoyable, worth your time and money, then Sols games are for you. There isn't another DM out there that will give you a fulfilling story and a fun experience like this."
It's a new year, and a new lockdown in the UK. If any of yall are looking for a consistent, interesting game to sink your teeth into, I'm your guy!
Cant wait to find the right player for this game! Getting close to the pinnacle of the arc which means a boss encounter is on the cards soon! A super fun and exciting game, with a really good plot! 
Thanks Abi. Hopefully we'll fill those slots soon, especially with the Lockdown being underway in the UK.
Starting to get stuff prepared for this week as I've got multiple big sessions planned, still got a slot open for Fridays & Saturdays for anyone interested. :)
