Background:
Hi there!
My name is Gareth, I haven't played D&D for a few years now and even then i would consider myself a novice. I started playing 4E (I can hear some boo's already lol) a few years back but had to give it up due to real life issues. However now i have more time on my hands and I've recently purchased the 5E players handbook.
Roll20:
I heard about Roll20 from watching Youtube videos' as well as Twitch. So i decided to jump into it myself, seeing as i don't know many people near to myself that play D&D.
D&D Characters':
So as stated I'm teaching myself 5E, mainly towards being a player rather then a DM, but if a chance comes by where i can learn to be a DM, then i will surely give it a go.
My characters i usually run with are Human Ranger and Dwarf Fighter. Lord of the Rings is my inspiration for these characters, but however i do put my own twist and backstory onto them, so they aren't a complete copy of Aragorn and Gimli. But what i like about my characters is that they ain't afraid to charge in and get their hands dirty. That's not to say that Wizards etc can't do this, but in my mind and the way I'am in real life, I'm more of a hands on kind of guy, I would rather leave the intelligence to someone else.
What do i seek:
First and foremost, I'm hear to make friends and to enjoy a good campaign as well as primarily to have fun. If there is someone willing to teach me the game by including me in their own campaign, then please message me. I would love to hear from you.
Thank you for reading my short story about myself and i look forward to hearing from you guys.
