Looking to start a campaign with my friend and 2-3 other players. Will be using Discord and Beyond for everything. Its been exhausting trying to pick a specific campaign so just be ok with forming a group to play D&D and have fun. Tell some stories and maybe flesh out our characters. Nothing too serious. Actually bother to fill out the stuff below. If you think its a drag, this isnt for you. Ok? Great.
Player
Age 18 up?:
Gender/sex/whatever: (Just put something)
Experience with D&D: (New player? Veteran? Just wanna know what im dealing with)
Good mic/head set?:
Fluent English?: (I need to be able to understand you otherwise there just isn't a point.)
Anything else?:
Some character ideas you have swimming around your head. Feel free to post more then one but just show me you care about your character.
Player Age 18 up?: Yes Sex: Female Experience with D&D: 6 years playing dnd 5e, 1 year dming 2024 Good mic/head set?: Not streamer quality, but not a Walmart mic Fluent English?: Yes Anything else?: I really enjoy combat in DnD, but most of my fun comes from roleplay and flavor. I'd say I like a 40/40/20 split between combat, roleplay, and exploration. I try to make decisions in and out of combat as my character, but I'll always prioritize group cohesion above and below the table.
Character
I'll preface this section by saying that I'm happy to fill whatever role or class the party composition is missing. I've played most of the classes and enjoyed each. I'm also a character sheet junky, so if the characters I've described below don't make the cut, there's plenty more where that came from. I'd also be happy to create a new character to suit the campaign and party.
Name:Aggimak Race/Subrace: Orc Class/eventual Subclass: Bard, College of Creation Short Bio: Aggimak was born to a clan of orcs caught between the Old Rites of Gruumsh and the innovations of newcomers bearing riches and splendor. Though her clan engaged in trade and some degree of diplomacy with other races, their traditions and social hierarchy were still ruled by overt displays of power. For a child born sickly and weak, there was only one path that offered honor and acceptance: the Path of the Shaman. So it was that Aggimak was given to the clan's spiritual leader in her early childhood to learn the ways of magic, tradition, and history. Though she had an innate talent for channeling the arcane through performance, oration, and her clan's ancestral smoke tricks, she never quite fit in with the culture of her people. When it came time to follow the Coming of Age Ceremony, she instead broke ties with her people and sought the comforts of urban life, only to find new challenges and tests of strength. After a few years of growing pains, she established connections with the underbelly of Waterdeep and began work as a private detective, putting her quick wit and survivalist mentality to work for the lost and desperate of the sprawling city.
Name: Jahir Race/Subrace: Human Class/eventual Subclass: Warlock, The Hexblade Short Bio: Once an ardent follower of Kelemvor, Jahir tended to the resting places of the dead and the hearts of the grief stricken. He dedicated his life to upholding the balance between life and death and healing those who teetered on that thin line. One day, his purpose was violently uprooted by the incessant whispers of the damned, beckoning him to take up his censor and light incense for their souls. He knew it was a trick, but as the whispers grew more desperate night after night, he succumbed to their influence, and his life purpose was twisted. Now he struggles to maintain his sense of self against the hungry, warped souls within his sacred instrument that call out for the life force of the living. (Side note: Originally, this character concept was made as a back up for a Curse of Strahd campaign.)
Name: Brody Smith Race/Subrace: Human Class/eventual Subclass: Paladin, Oath of Glory (Maybe a smidge of Warlock on top) Short Bio: Born to salt of the earth farmers who lived miles and miles from the nearest city, Brody wasn't born into greatness. He was a simple boy living a simple life amongst simple people, but he was always just a little stronger and a little faster than the other boys his age. Farm work became mundane by the time he'd hit his teenaged years, and wanderlust began to set in. One day as he was searching the forest for firewood, Brody encountered an injured horse and helped to mend the beast's wounds as best he could. He was clumsy, but sincere and guileless in his compassion, and the horse revealed itself to be a celestial unicorn. The two became fast friends as the unicorn healed, and Brody began to learn to channel his innate strength of will into power to help the weak and defenseless. Once the unicorn returned to the celestial plane, Brody left his childhood home in search of adventure and wrongs to right.
i want to paly sharp shooter or a monster hunter that like box her hunts
johnny Appleseed & ebony Vernon
human & orc
Johnny is a marksman that prizes himself on clean kills. As a bounty hunter he tries to keep his bounties alive. He used to be a face for a company of bounty hunters, The lackey for everyone. Now he gets his shot at the big time to get the bounties that actually matter. Now that he's off the chain he can know flourish
Ebony is a hunter of the highest caliber not relying on the normal means of hunting. She thinks most weapons and most tools of the trade are for weak men when you have the best God-given gifts to weapons. Monsters have various types of ways of hunting that are unique why don't we primalize ourselves to their level. Make it the equal playing field and have a fair fight.
Experience with D&D: New. I've been studying the 2024 handbook and watching games on YouTube. Some friends and I recently had our first 'session zero' and are planning to kick off the campaign (Waterdeep: Dragon Heist) soon, but with scheduling conflicts, I think games will be few and far between :(. I'd like to find a regular group so I can learn faster and just have fun.
Good mic/head set?: Yes
Fluent English?: Yes
Anything else?: I'm up for whatever. Even though I haven't played yet, I'm a writer (novels, screenplays), so storytelling and character development are basically what I think about all day, every day. I'm hoping D&D will be a natural fit.
Character
Name: Wick
Race/Subrace: Human
Class/eventual Subclass: Sorcerer, Aberrant
Short Bio: On rugged islands, battered by chill winds and freezing rain, a male child is cause for joy. Someone to brave the sea and tame the coast. But no sooner had the first son of the family Thulin breathed the salty air of his birth home than the winds began to curl, the sea swelled, and clouds, black as coal, portended a night of calamity that no sunrise would erase. As Whelan the Solitary, a shameless opportunist, picked through the ruins, he stumbled upon a mother still clutching her baby--a baby that had somehow survived the night. With a surge of compassion that surprised even Whelan himself, he scooped up the child and surrendered his cherished epithet. Seventeen years passed, and he taught the boy every art in his power: from fishing to literature, and how to read the stars at sea--along with a deep distrust of all things arcane. That is, until the night a storm cut their hearts to the quick. As the rock thundered beneath their feet, and hail scourged their home, smashing windows and piercing the roof, in the distance a single wave began to rise. Whelan watched from the window as his son planted his feet where the stone was slick... raised his face to the blows of hail... lifted his hands to meet the Sea. Even as the towering wave crested, so it parted, sliced from shore to sky as if by the blade of heaven--and so too would father and son find themselves rent asunder. For Whelan grew bitter, and Wick departed in shame. Five years he worked the seas aboard merchant vessels, until a chance encounter with an old wizard awakened the spark he had tried so hard to forget. Now he wanders, following the magic and listening to the voice that whispers within...
