Wassup everyone!
My name is Donnus and I have been a DM since 2016 – running various TTRPG systems and campaigns. Following a hiatus, I am looking to kickstart a homebrew campaign building on the foundations of my lore over the years. I already have at least two players and depending on the interest here I could take on 2-3 more. Beginners are of course welcome, and the campaign will be well suited for you, beginning at level 2.
The sessions are expected to run Wednesday evenings from 6-10pm GMT. As such, I am looking for players who can reliably meet this window on a weekly basis. As can be expected, some weeks will be missed, however half-party or rescheduling options would be available.
For some context on the setting, it is based on a mixture of Homebrew (which draws from classic sources such as the Forgotten Realms) and was expanded by Ebberon (particularly in relation to ancient history and geography). Now the homebrew has evolved into a sandbox of brand new and classic content, and I am always interested in expanding the canon so please do not feel hamstrung.
The campaign will take place in the seas between two major continents on the plane of Lorei’un - called the Termini String. The region is a hotbed of commerce, piracy and exploration, believed to still hold secrets in the last strongholds of an ancient empire long withered and forgotten. The islands of the string have frequently changed hands between three main factions which will define the campaign: Rialto, an expansionist colonial power built upon commerce and subjugation; The Capstan Coalition, an alliance of pirate captains and criminal syndicates sworn to a bizarre piratic constitution; and the Vond, the strange oricsh natives of the string which now strive to reclaim their domain.
Our campaign will explore a region dominated by these waring factions as a new, mysterious force emerges, threatening the balance of power entirely.
As such you can expect a campaign influenced by swashbuckling, naval exploration, city intrigue and island hopping.
Though, at least at the start, I aim for the campaign to feel familiar and slowly open into a sandbox with space to explore. Should you choose to become pirates? Sick. Do you lead uprisings with the Vond? Equally sick. Do you confront the new threats to the string and garner renown as heroes? Sweet. Do you indulge in the corruption and betrayal of Rialtese politics? Nice. Why not do a bit of everything?
We will be using discord for our in-session comms platform and Roll20 for mapping and handouts. As such I would kindly request some minimum proficiency with these two applications, though I am happy to tutorial everything. Please do not approach the campaign with a character in mind, this will be a job for session 0 between all the players to make characters together.
I would request all applications begin with the google form below, I have tried to keep the questions brief in respect for your time.

I will reach out in DMs via discord if you are selected - please do not show interests in the comments for this post alone.
