Game: D&D 5e (2014 & 2024)
Group Type: Online
Experience: Everyone is welcome. Currently, we have three veteran players (including me), one somewhat experienced player, and one new player.
Location/Timezone: Online / 7 PM CEST
Schedule: Games are weekly on Saturdays. Attendance is required unless there are circumstances outside your control preventing you from joining.
Current Players: Zealot Barbarian, Lore Bard, Stars Druid / Life Cleric, Phantom Rogue
Roles Sought: Any class is welcome, but we could really use someone with arcane knowledge. You’ll start at level 5.
Game Style: My games focus on roleplay, characters, and story. That said, you don’t need to be an expert actor to join, none of us are either.
Tone: Neutral Fantasy Adventure, 16+ (with the occasional dip into 18+ territory if relevant to the story)
Warnings: Mild bigotry. As part of the plot, the players are part of a group that is not welcome in most settlements, and some NPCs will react accordingly if they find out. It’s not a focus of the game, but it may come up occasionally.
Hey, how's it going everyone?
We are currently in Chapter 5 of an epic saga. Our group values high-participation, meaningful roleplay, and reliability. If you're the kind of player who keeps a lore journal and loves a focused, cinematic narrative where your character’s personal journey is at the heart of a grand, unfolding story, read on...
"You are a part of the Hanataz, a group of outcasts who travel the roads and perform carnivalles outside of most major settlements.
The Hanataz consists of a motley bunch of people from all over the land. There are many different reasons why one would become Hanataz, but there is one that more or less guarantees your only chance of survival is with them: the Bloodtouch. It is a magical corruption, and those affected by it are seen as abominations by the rest of the world, guaranteed to be ostracized.
This particular tale centers around the Zatis, or 'the helpers' in the common tongue. As is tradition for teenagers and young adults - those too old to be babysat, but too young to perform - you are expected to help around the carnival however you can. For this particular stay, you were chosen as guards, tasked with patrolling the grounds and dealing with any potential troublemakers or threats as the troupe sets up near the city of Nevermore."
"That’s how it started at least, but those days are long gone. A lot has happened since that fateful day, as the Zatis now find themselves navigating an uncaring, often hostile world alone, as they seek to reunite with their lost family."
I'm sure the following is a bit of a big ask, but as they say: nothing ventured, nothing gained.
One of my players (our wizard) just got a promotion, and, while we are very happy for him, that unfortunately means he won't be able to make it to the games any longer. That leaves us in a bit of a pickle though. Due to the particular narrative of this game, him leaving creates a bit of a hole in the story that I would like to invite someone interested to help fill.
For clarification, we're just about to move into chapter 5 out of 5 released chapters (and 7 planned, though there hasn't been a release date for the last two books set yet) for this mostly story focused campaing. I can fully understand that the idea of joining so late might feel overwhelming to you right now, especially in a narrative focused game like this, but I'm more than happy to help catch you up on all the important details you need to know to feel right at home.
As for your character, there are ways to incorporate a new face into the game — even if it might need a delicate touch to pull it off successfully — or you could take over the NPC currently accompanying the group: a young half-elf woman, whose personality constantly shifts to match the situation.
I of course realize that the whole thing might look rather daunting at first glance, and I'm sure you might have some reservations about joining. However, I'm more than happy to welcome anyone brave enough to give it a try regardless; I'm sure you won't regret it.

As always, thank you for your time.
