Background:: Hermit About you the player:: My name is John and I am 32 years old. I have played DnD for a couple years. My experience is exclusively with 5e.

He sees the beginnings of a new industry working with and building new types of machinery and he has hopes of making the move to the city permanent so he can put down roots and put his violent past behind him. Background::Outlander Pilgrim
About you the player:: My name is Billy I am 38, living in Las Vegas and I have never played within the 5e system. It has been many years, so I would consider myself a newbie and looking to get back into it after the popularity seems to have grown in leaps and bounds.

Born to a working class family he has 7 brothers and 1 sister. They all live with their parents in a small house inside the mountain.

Background:: Soldier About you the player:: I am John Nusbaum. I am currently hosting a small campaign of D&D on discord. I'm 23 years old and have a long history with D&D. I work as IT for apple and help out at my cousin's gas station. I'm raised by a military family so being strict, mostly serious and calm and collected in difficult situations is natural to me. I always try to switch up my characters as this will be my first soldier character if I'm accepted and look forward to what can happen in campaigns. My goal is to be a player in a campaign that will last over a year.
Any taboo subject matter If any: Real life racism is a very bad thing to me. I'm white but raised the way I was, racism is not cool in any way. Racism or racial biases in D&D is fine but if it's brought into real life. I'm likely to say something.
backstory: I’m a monk who grew up in a monastery( specific location up to you) where the most valuable thing one had was their inner self. I seek to make my inner self whole by mastering all the four elements and achieving what those before me could not.

For once they understand their inner self and who they truly are they will begin to allow themselves to accept others.

It was when her village was wiped out mysteriously that her domain was chosen for her. While still trying to uncover what happened to her village and family she seeks to put the undead to rest where ever she goes. Background:: Acolyte About you the player:: My name is Alexandra and I'm 28. I have been playing d&d for a few years with some friends. I love getting into a game with a good story and watching my characters change and grow. The setting you described sounds pretty neat and I would be interested in joining. I am mostly available on Sundays.

Waking a few days later to a new part of the forest once more to find the worse of his wound bandage and by a small campfire where the half elven women now sat tending her longbow with a large mean eyes eagle staring at him from a nearby branch. Being grilled with question he could not answer the orc, which he found out himself to be, had lost near all memory of why he was even out in the woods, let alone injured, seemed the women had a soft spot for injured beasts. A joke at the time but he hadn't picked up on it til much later. Background:: Outlander About you the player:: Friday and Sundays are my usual days off, but anything generally after 8-9pm MST I'm off from work and available for gameing
Any taboo subject matter If any: Character stuff stays in character, about it really
Character Name:: Wenceslaus (Wen for short) D'Xul nar Ranthes
Age:: 25
Race:: Dragonborn (Bronze)
Starting Class:: Divine Soul Sorcerer (Good)
Backstory:: Born to a royal family Wen quickly grew bored of the pampered lifestyle. Due to his gifts granted to him by his people's gods he was raised to be dedicated to priesthood, and he wanted nothing less. Once the day came for him to be handed over to the church he denied them and fled the city, buying passage on a ship and abandoning his family's name. After a few years of sailing he discovered that he loved the ocean and had a live at sea. Three years later, at an unfamiliar port, he waits for his next contract and next adventure but it's always in his mind that his family may want him back.
Background:: Sailor
About the Player:: I am Farwulf, Real name is Mickey if you don't like the alias. I live in Kansas for now and have been looking for a more serious RP oriented game for months. I've been playing for over a year now and seek a new adventure after my last one ended. My hobbies are video editing, recording, photography, and I dabble in art/paints. My life goal is to become a tailor. I'm hoping that I can get in this game and have the story adventure I've dreamt of. (Forgot to add on initially that I am also an actor in the theater program. Getting into character and separating character from player is simple for me. I also have a small media presence if you care about that type of thing.)
Taboo Subjects:: None. It takes a lot to get under my skin.
Character Name:: Jack Age:: 3 (or older, depending on setting) Race:: Warforged (or other)
Kobold and Tabaxi are also of interest here. Additionally, halfling (ghostwise), duergar, tiefling (winged variant) or even dragonborn (black) would work here.
Starting Class:: Rogue (TBD) (or other)
As needed, I intend to fill the "sneak" or "thief" role here, handling the traps and scouting and the like. This, however, can be done in a few other ways, by making use of the Criminal or Urchin background, which provides proficiency in Thieves' Tools:
Wizard (Illusion)
Sorcerer (Shadow)
Warlock (TBD)
Monk (Shadow)
Cleric (Illusion)
Fighter (Eldritch Knight)
Ranger (Gloomstalker)
Backstory 3-5 sentences:: (Warforged) Jack never met his creators. What purpose may have been served by his creation is unknown to him. He was discovered in an underground lair, but by the wrong sort of people. Just the folks you don't want to see with a fancy new toy. Since then, "Jack," as he is now known, has been optimized for missions of danger and discretion, where a "more valuable" life is not worth risking, but Jack takes the tasks on with the satisfaction of having a purpose.
(Other races) Originally brought by ship as a trophy for a wealthy smuggler, Jack's master was killed in a warehouse raid by the city watch. Set loose in the streets of Damos, he was left to fend for himself, snatching pies from windowsills and running the occasional scam with his only friend, a kobold (or tabaxi) named Elik (or Bites-the-Hand).
Background:: Criminal (or Urchin) About you the player:: Gained loads of experience with D&D 3.0 and 3.5, and then took a few years away from the table. Dabbled in play-by-post for a couple years. Returned to a regular game in 5th ed, and now DM a homebrew campaign. Classical music and teaching is my trade, gaming (D&D and videogames) and videography are my hobbies, and Wednesday or Sunday evenings will be the most consistent. I'm based in the Pacific NW. I'm very flexible with roles and can come up with something unique to fit any party - the above is just a sample. Any taboo subject matter if any: PG-13 and marginally R are probably fine. NC-17, X, or beyond does not interest me, especially in the case of Twitch streaming. We can keep sex "off-screen". There is also a difference between occasional adult subject matter and persistent adult "themes". We will need to come to a consensus in Session 0 or before.
Character Name:: nugri ihk iejir Age:: 18 Race:: dragonborn Starting Class:: ranger multiclassing to barbarian Backstory 3-5 sentences:: my village got destroyed by green skins when i was a kid (orcs and such). travelled alot till i fell uncosius they found me then took me to the wood elves. the wood elves thaught me about nature and its lovely aspects. sometimes at night i wake up with from these horrifying dreams Background:: hauntd one About you the player:: i do what i feel my character should do

About you the player::I'm new and have only played a few times with friends so I'm very excited
Character Name:: Double 179445 Age:: 7 Race:: Warforged (Envoy) Starting Class:: Rogue (Assassin Archetype) Backstory 3-5 sentences:: Double was the chef and poison maker of his master who was an assassin. His master suffered terrible anxiety and was schizoprhanic. He thought all of his servants were going to kill him so he killed them first, slaughtering all of Doubles brothers and sisters. Double seeing his kin die took a blade to his master and was shocked by what he did but realized it necessary. Something clicked inside of Double and he decided to assume the mantle of his slain master.
I am open to change in the backstory in order to fit into the world more which would not be a problem for me.
Background:: Criminal / Spy About you the player:: I am 18 years old and fell in love with dnd about 3 years ago. I am charismatic, I am open to anything and I love roleplaying my characters. I am currently unemployed so I have a lot of time for dnd and I am available almost 24/7. I have a very good quality mic and wish to become a narrator for audible as a side job and a therapist when I go off to college. I am open to changing anything I need to in order to fit in the team dynamic. I have a lot of experience, I recently finished up a year long campaign that did sessions that were 8+ hours long and were done 1-4 times a week. I am not shy so I am perfectly happy to talk in front of the viewers of twitch. I am very excited and willing to drop anything to play dnd.
Any taboo subject matter If any: I have no subjects that are taboo to me.
Character Name:: Keegan Bradley Fitzpatrick (Fitz) Age:: 25 Race:: Drow Starting Class:: Bard (Multiclass Rogue) Backstory 3-5 sentences:: Lays it on thick as a charming lady's man without a care in the world to hide from being just a regular guy who simply misses his twin sister and is scared of getting too close to anyone.

Any taboo subject matter If any: None, I'm game for whatever level of maturity the game calls for.
Character Name:: Therb Evileye Age:: 33 Race:: Human (Variant) Starting Class:: Paladin 5 (Backstory) Currently Fighter 3/ Cleric 2 Backstory 3-5 sentences: Therb was a Paladin of Bahamut, in which he was a dutiful and powerful force for good within the realms. At behest of his king, he was to overthrow/drive back an Orc horde that had within its ranks Half-Orc Necromancers that were reanimating slain warriors for their cause. In the midst of battle, Therb demanded Bahamut to interced and smite all of these foul wretches back to where they came from. There was no answer, and the light dimmed. Therb was then stricken down by an Orc barbarian and was left to die. Once again, he called out, but his god did not answer.... However, Gruumsh did. Background: Therb rose against his former forces and helped overthrow his own former king. He is currently conflicted with his ambitions, on one hand wishes to redeem himself to Bahamut, but then again, he could become a God himself and overthrow Bahamut. About you the player: Been playing DND since 1993 (1st ed), and just recently got back into it.
Any taboo subject matter If any: Anything is a go for me.

About you the player:: Gained loads of experience with D&D 3.0 and 3.5, and then took a few years away from the table. Dabbled in play-by-post for a couple years. Returned to a regular game in 5th ed, and now DM a homebrew campaign. Classical music and teaching is my trade, gaming (D&D and videogames) and videography are my hobbies, and Wednesday or Sunday evenings will be the most consistent. I'm based in the Pacific NW. I'm very flexible with roles and can come up with something unique to fit any party - the above is just a sample.
Any taboo subject matter if any: PG-13 and marginally R are probably fine. NC-17, X, or beyond does not interest me, especially in the case of Twitch streaming. We can keep sex "off-screen". There is also a difference between occasional adult subject matter and persistent adult "themes". We will need to come to a consensus in Session 0 or before.
