I am a long-time GM looking to bring the joy of D&D to more players (and hopefully broaden my horizons and look to tell stories professionally, through book publishing and paid DMing) This campaign has been 10 years running, and began with a group of highschool players. Since then, at least 40 different players between 8 groups have passed through this world. The decisions players make in the campaign persist in the world indefinitely. The friends and enemies you make continue on in the world until they die, even long after you have stopped playing. When you join this campaign, you are taking part in a world that has been built with the help of every player that came before you. When you act in it, you effect it for all the players after you as well. Multiple campaigns are played simultaneously in the same time frame, and some players have multiple PCs operating in different parts of the world at the same time. All player characters are level 8, and stay that level for the entirety of the game. Instead of levelling up, players progress their characters and build stats by taking action and roleplaying in game. New abilities are learned by finding a teacher, or experimenting yourself. Skills are progressed through study and practice. Spells are learned from reading and research. There are hundreds of avenues to take to progress your story and build your character, all it takes is creativity and curiosity on your part. Create a level 8 character, and join one of many ongoing campaigns, or set out on your own journey. There are so many ongoing, intertwining events that you're bound to be wrapped up in a storyline or meet other players eventually. Negotiate peace between gods, demons and dragons. Participate in hundreds of overarching storylines and conflicting faction interests, and uncover the mysteries of ancient races and technology. Fight back the tides of the shadow realm as they attempt to break free of the shade and merge with the material world. Delve deep into the ancient dwarven waterworks as the modern workers attempt to restore it to working order, and uncover long-kept secrets while Kobolds, Drow, cults, and crime syndicates vie for territory. Commune with higher dimensional entities, and bind your mind, body, and soul with unfathomably powerful meta-beings. Participate in politics and intrigue, as you expand your own empire, cartel, cult, mercenary or merchant guild, etc Fight long-term conflicts alongside or against other players, as you all set out to pursue your own conflicting goals or shared interests. Want to join? Inbox me on discord @ Bubbasmack#2651 and we can help create a custom character, flesh out a backstory, and build you a PC that you'll love to play as.
