This game has now started. Thank you all for the interest and be on the lookout for new sessions!
Game: D&D 5e Group type: Online (Video & Audio) Experience: New / a few years / veteran all welcome Location/Timezone: GMT+1 or GMT+8 Schedule: Tuesdays 20.00 weekly Roles sought: Up to 6 Players Game style: roleplay, exploration, combat, puzzles (in order of priority)
A tiefling wizard sets sail east towards the mageocratic land of Boregast, where she aims to uncover arcane secrets protected by the Violet Council.
A dwarf high priest of Lathander, god of birth and renewal, blesses the newborn prince of the Kingdom of the Sun, the first kingdom in Welmar in over two centuries.
A human bard arrives in East Exodia, ready to discover the lands that have banished his ancestors a millenium ago.
An elven ranger sends away their hawk to the Sovereign Land of Dawyn, with a hasty note on its talons. The Blue Dragon has risen, and the volcano is erupting.
All of these characters exist in the World of Mar along many others.
Whether you are fearsome half-orc barbarian looking to destroy anyone who challenges you, or a fearful gnomish sorcerer who just wants to be able to control their elemental magic, there is a place for you!
Mar is a new, custom-made D&D5E fantasy setting. The lands are filled with kingdoms, empires, city states and even republics, wildlands and uncharted seas, legends, myths and rumours.
Whether you are a first-time player or a veteran, if you want a fresh custom-made campaign with a setting that organically develops around you, this is the game for you!
THE GAME
Tuesdays: 20.00 GMT+1 // 20.00 GMT+8 (flexible)
I am in London, so I can accomodate European region OR Asian region. If there is enough attendance for both sessions, we can have both.
I plan to have Session 0 before September 2020.
Number of Players: 6 max
The maximum number of players for any campaign is 6, but we will start playing if we have 5. ALTERNATIVELY, if you already have a party of 4+ people, we can play without additional players (as long as the party already knows each other).
Sessions:
We will run WEEKLY sessions. Each session should last 3-4 hours with 1 or 2 breaks.
It will be a medium length campaign in the beginning, running for 12-14 sessions, after which the players can decide to continue playing.
We will use audio AND video communication. Roll20 will be used for battlemaps and combat, to see movement, positioning etc. but the whole campaign WILL NOT run on roll20. We will useDnDBeyond for character sheets (no charge on your side) and Discord for communication. In case the internet connection is not optimal for Discord for everyone, we can use Skype or Hangouts instead.
There will be a Session 0 which should be around 2 hours.
This game is intended to provide a safe space for all backgrounds and walks of life. Sensitive content will be kept to a minimum and I encourage players to voice their discomfort if anything triggers them. I apply the “I’m not comfortable with…” rule where if a player at any point says this sentence, we stop, reconfigure and carry on, no questions asked.
Payment:
This game will require payment to the Game Master at a rate of £15 per session per person, paid through Paypal before each session. DnDBeyond is not responsible for any payment transactions and cannot enforce any private arrangements.
Session 0 is free of charge. Session 1 is 100% refundable.
Any session cancelled at least 4 hours in advance can be refunded 100% or the pay can be carried over to the next session. This price is set until December 2020 or until the end of the initial 12-14 session length campaign, after which it may be readjusted.
THE DM
I am Orcun. A 29 year-old from London.
I am a published writer, filmmaker and a PhD candidate at the end of their research. My research focuses on narrative and storytelling in Netflix Originals and I also teach undergraduate level courses in Creative Industries. It is safe to say that stories, telling stories and thinking about telling stories is my life.
I have been playing D&D since 3.0 and 3.5 and have gotten into professional DMing with 5e in the last few years. I run custom-made (homebrew) campaigns and am running two groups right now, both adventuring in my main setting of the World of Mar.
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THIS GAME?
High fantasy setting. Mystery. Plot twists. Roleplay, exploration, combat and the occasional puzzles.
I will try to act out scenes, I will do voices. They will be terrible, but I have very low self-respect, so hopefully you will be comfortable with it and have fun.
We start from Level 2, and use milestone levelling. At the end of 12-14 sessions you should expect to get 3-5 levels.
If you want to hack and slash your way through dungeons and/or murder anything in your path, this is not the game for you.
WHY PAY FOR THIS GAME?
Payment ensures that all parties (including the DM) are invested in the game. Having played as a DM and as a player in both free and paid games, the difference is crystal clear.
All maps and battlemaps are custom-made. There are many items, spells, monsters etc. that have been custom-made for your campaign by me.
I use a lot of tools for the game that require subscription fees. Charging for my games means I can continue this hobby with as little disturbance in my income as possible.
I make a living from storytelling and this is a form of my craft. Having a fee gets me closer to a career of storytelling (and not doing other things just to pay rent).
WHAT I EXPECT FROM THE PLAYERS?
Respect each other. We are all here to have a good time and nobody is more important/smarter/cooler than the other.
Don’t be a rule lawyer. I run games in a very RAW (rules-as-written) way but I have a couple of specific table rules and I tend to ignore/alter some rules occasionally if I think it fits the story better.
Try to be punctual. I understand that some people can’t make it some weeks, that is fine. But when players are consistently 15-20 minutes late to a session, that sucks for everyone else.
Don’t sabotage the game. Everyone gets a loner character, but if your character does not agree with anything the party decides, tries to leave the party constantly or picks fight, you don’t really understand the nature of ‘playing together’.
GAME SPECIFIC RULES
No homebrew content from players accept for backgrounds (only with the DM’s approval). I only allow races, classes and subclasses from Player’s Handbook and Xanathar’s Guide to Everything. The reason for that is, it is very difficult to balance homebrew content, and I can’t guarantee balancing your Half-banshee fallen oathbreaker hexblade-warlock-paladin without breaking the game for others. MORE IMPORTANTLY, I have seen it again and again that usually a player gets too excited about their homebrew on paper, but get bored of it very quickly after a few sessions.
No age limit. But I do ask if players are over or under 18. I adjust the atmosphere and storytelling accordingly if there are any under 18s in the game.
We use DnDBeyond for character sheets. Your free subscription to DnDBeyond is enough for this game. Any paid content you will need is provided by me.
Ideally, all players should have access to Player’s Handbook (and preferably Xanathar’s Guide to Everything) but we can accommodate.
We will discuss ideas for your characters etc. but the actual character creation will be done together during Session 0.
You can roll your dice physically or digitally, but you should be able to show the result.

Hey! Trav/Travis here, 23 so above 18! I am AEST timezone, so GMT+10 i think. I do not know if thats any trouble but I understand <3 Played D&D since i've been a teen (ONLY 5e and like two pathfinder one shots) so about 3 on&off years of exp as a player! [very small DM Exp] Been lookin' for a D&D crew for a bit now, although i have never paid for D&D, i am not against it because it definitely seems like your playstyle/world has 'passion' and 'heart', so it lines up pretty well with my own!
I'm Rex, he/him, 23 and completely new to d&d. Except for playing around with character making and watching others play it, if that makes up for anything lol
I'm in the UK, so same timezone, and I'd love to try a campaign out and hopefully learn from you so I can someday DM myself, if that's alright with you. Also looking for a more story based play, and yours is like a dream come true!
I hope everything works out and sending thanks and good vibes! ❤️

Good luck with everything & Stay safe ♥
Hi there, AEST should line up quite alright with GMT+8, once we have the party set, we can arrange a time that works for everyone. Nice to meet you and thanks for all the kind words. I'll send a private message soon, once we have more players to have a chat, then hopefully we can start an exciting journey.

Hi, so nice to meet you. I'm more than happy to share insight into DMing as well. Just like above, once we have more players, I'll send you a private message to arrange a small chat, then hopefully soon we can start a good and exciting adventure together.
Looking forward to start this. This game has been posted on other platforms too, but we still have a few slots left! Come in! It's warm and cozy inside!
Hey there! I'm Chris, over 18. I am in the US (GMT-5) but I work the night shift so I'm usually up at around the same time you guys are. I'm extremely new to D&D and I'm definitely interested. My work schedule is a little bit wonky at the moment but it will be back stable towards November. If that's okay I'd definitely be interested if not then that's completely fair and I understand. Thanks for your time!

Hi Chris. Our first game (20.00 GMT+8) would be too early for you though right? I think it would be around 7.00 am.
But the 20.00 GMT+1 game should work for you pretty well.

7AM is about the time I go to bed so I think the other should be just fine with me as long as that's okay with you!
Aaron is my name, 28 and have been playing 5e for just over a year. I'm in Est zone, so I would have to join the GM+1 game I believe, if there is a spot for me.
I live in Asia with GMT+8 so this works out perfectly for me. I'm completely new to d&d, I've only tried to once with my friends on a mini dungeon crawl where I DMed but other than that i have only watched others play. Hope there is still a slot left for me to join!
