Hello adventurers!

I'm an Australian DM who runs a long-term, RP-heavy homebrew campaign on Thursday nights. We're currently scouting for new players, so I thought I'd run a one-shot (or more than one, depending on how many responses I get) so we could meet some new D&D players and hopefully find the right people to fill out our party. We play by voice on Discord, using Roll20 for maps and combat. Due to ages of the current players we're only looking for people who are 18+, and you must be LGBTQ+ friendly. No homophobia, transphobia, aphobia, etc, will be allowed. You'll also need a stable internet connection and decent microphone. The games are very beginner friendly.

If you're looking for a chill campaign to join with opportunities for exploring character backstories, travelling across a homebrew world, and forming lasting bonds both in and out of character, this might just be the game for you! If you're not interested in a campaign, or you're not sure if you want to commit to it, you're welcome to come along to the one-shot and give it a go. (Although if a lot of people apply, preference will be given to people who are interested in joining the campaign.) Like the campaign, the one-shot will be largely RP, with some exploration and puzzles.

The day of the one-shot is yet to be decided, but it will be at or around 7pm AEST (probably on a weekday). If this time doesn't work for you, please don't apply. If you've read this far, ticked all of the boxes, and are still interested in the game, please either reply to this thread or message me with the following:

• Name, age, pronouns, & Discord ID
• If you're just interested in the one-shot or the campaign as well

Hi, I would love to join! 

• Name, age, pronouns, & Discord ID: Lydia, 28, she/her, icyii#8202
• If you're just interested in the one-shot or the campaign as well: I'm good with both one-shot and campaign
• What D&D experience you have and what you like about the game:  I'm a newbie, still looking to play my first game, but I've watched youtube video tutorials + read some rulebooks. I love the RP aspect + fantasy elements as I'm an aspiring fantasy writer.
• The time this game will take place in your timezone: 5pm.I'm in Singapore and our timezone is GMT +8. Weekdays work for me as I work from home and get off work at 5pm.

I also have 2 fairly experienced friends who might want to join. They're also located in Singapore. Will forward this thread to them to see what they think :)

• Hi! What a great opportunity!
• Name, age, pronouns, & Discord ID: Tami, 57, she/her. I just recently got  Discord ID MonsMons#9941
• If you're just interested in the one-shot or the campaign as well: One-shot. 
• What D&D experience you have and what you like about the game: I'm a newbie and I've played a a short introductory trial game with a small high school group that was nice enough to help acquaint me with D&D: however as they're near the end of their campaign, I could not join them for anything long-haul. I'm truly interested in the RP and improvisational aspect of the game. I'm a high school teacher (with a high school son), theatre actor, and stage director researching for a school production. Am eager to learn. Open-minded.

• What D&D experience you have and what you like about the game: My practical D&D experience amounts to a handful of one session one-shots that left me wanting so much more.

Hi, this look very promising and interesting !

• Enguerrand, he, EleKTriiK#7597
• Interested in the One-shot
• I've been playing for about a year and a half now, doing just as much DMing as I've been a player, but mainly irl or play by post, so I have very little experience with roll20 etc... I love the freedom the game offer, and the time you share with interesting people when playing the game!
• This should take place at 11:00 am in my country as I'm french (I also have french pronunciation, so i hope it's okay)

Hi

I would interested in playing in both a one shot and if I fit, your campaign.

• If you're just interested in the one-shot or the campaign as well: both
• What D&D experience you have and what you like about the game: I’m only really a beginner having played a few nights at a local game store and I have never played online. I like a good mix of RP and combat, not a murder hobo.

 I don’t really have a preference for the type of character I play and are happy to fill in the gaps, I do have a family and should be able to play at 7pm on either Monday, Tuesday or Thursday. Friday is a maybe as we often head off Friday arvo for the weekend.

Cheers
Jaytas
