"An impenetrable fog shadows the continent of Enhios for almost a decade. After the sun turned dark, a merciless endless winter began.

Every member of the order must contribute an equal share to each contract, which will then be provided to your headmaster.

Player Material and Contact
This campaign will take place during the War of the Ashes, a dark period the continents history. The game can played with homebrew rules. Currently, I am looking for new players who want to spice up their game playing with new in-game content, including a set of new races, classes, spells and many, many more that should offer a completely new experience to add the 5e ruleset. The participants will be supplied with ALL the new content coming up, including the main homebrew file, as well as future publications.
Regarding your choices, I will prioritize the content to be updated and revised if needed with my team of homebrew creators. As for now, all creations, including the rules, illustrations and worldbuilding is written down by me and the help of a year long friend and will be extended further. As the document is getting improved, I am working to improve its art to give you a look into the world. If you are interested in the vision of the world, check out my Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nicolasdifausto/
How do I join?
I am currently about to gather interested players and plan to host multiple campaigns at a time. We will be at the very beginning of the setup and I'd like to know everyone better before we start. The best way to contact me is via Discord (Corus29), where you can reach out, talk about your preferences, your character ideas and how to join for the adventures to come. I am more than happy to give you answers to every question you may have!
About the GM:
I am a passionate GM with years of experience, though mostly having run my campaigns in presence of my players. However, I have successfully run campaigns on Roll20 at least twice, boasting almost a year of commitment to it.
While I enjoy unfolding greater plots that drive the campaign, everyone of my players will experience their very own and personal quests, including single sessions or in pairs at the beginning of the campaign, to give a better feeling of the intensity of roleplay I want to achieve (those sessions will be offered for free).
I craft battlemaps with tools or paint them by myself, as well as creatures and/or important locations and other things of interest.
Our weekly sessions will be around 4 hours or longer and will be played every other week. Since there is still time until the campaign starts, this will be settled between us.
The playstyle will be heavily roleplay influenced with a healthy variation between social/exploring and combat encounters.
The leveling progression is marked by milestones rather than experience points.
Downtime will be valued as well, with a unique oppurtunity to embrace crafting or conceptualize ideas of your own even outside of the sessions. I will be active in our discord channel, where you can stay in touch with me at any time.
What are you waiting for?
If what you see has caught your interest, don't forget to reach out. For me, it would be existential to know my players, before we can kick this campaign off and I can give you guidance working yourself through the homebrew material!
Hi! I’m a 1st time DnD player but with decent knowledge about the format, lore and rules (also have played a LOT of BG3 and DnD style video games). Really friendly guy with limited time so thought the play-by-post would be the perfect format to get some actual experience :)
-Character Idea:
Deep Gnome Druid (circle of spore) with Sage background. His name is Magnus, 25 y/o, 3’6”, with dark gray/blue skin, long straight white hair and luminescent teal eyes. He will have the sage background, as far as backstory: He was left stranded and hurt (for reasons he cannot remember) at a very young age in the Underdark. A Myconid colony found him, healed him and raised/taught them their ways. He absorbed and craved all sorts of knowledge, being naturally gifted in magic helped a lot as well and developed on his spell craft with the archdruids of said colony (hence becoming a circle of spore druid). This expanding thirst for knowledge lead him to the outside world for truth and adventure!
I sent you a message request on Discord! I love the idea so far and would like to chat a little bit to discuss a few things. So if you find time, let me know and we can communicate on your preferred time schedule!
