Hi, I'm looking for 4-6 players to join my first php campaign. I've been DMing for 2 years in 4 campaigns.
PCs will start at level 1 unless the group feels another level would be better/more fun. Plans for when the campaign will end will be discussed between the players and myself. The campaign will be run in my homebrew world and will basically be a sandbox with many stories they can follow. Slight lore will be provided through the game but I am willing and able to make the lore less apparent in the story if the players deem it so. I am generous with magic items (some also homebrewed). Level up will be by milestone. Players can use whatever 5e applicable character sheet they desire. Ability scores will be generated by point buy unless the group feels otherwise.
I enjoy deep storytelling and observing character-driven role-play. Backstories for the PCs will be created by the players with help from myself through privet messages. The players can then decide when and where they divulge their backstory.
I am willing to answer any questions you may have before joining.
Hi CDShark, are you willing to accept players inexperienced with D&D5e?
I have been playing D&D for many years, but not 5e - do you think over the course of the game if a player finds he is... Unhappy with a certain choice he has made mechanically, you would be open to character modification, etc? (Not sure if there is such a thing as a re-training rule in D&D5e) Obviously not complete 180 degree changes, but adjustments here and there, as one gains more knowledge about the game mechanics?
Very open to players new to 5e, and I'd be willing to work with you and your character throughout the campaign. Yeah, if you decide a number of games in you decided you didn't like something mechanical about your character, I'd help you find something you would enjoy more.
Good to know CDShark - I always have a lot of ideas mulling in my head, but I think I will want to give the Eldritch Knight a twirl. I am just a sucker for gishes :D
Can you give a little detail on what type of campaign this will be? Urban, coastal, combat, investigation, social, etc? It affects what kind of character I create.
Looking to at least check in every day and post accordingly.
sounds good to me.
Do you have the book sharing and do you plan to open a campaign here for us to join?
I don’t have any books on this site so if not I’ll have to do it the old fashioned way and share it some other way like via google drive or something. I have no problem either way.
I would like to join. Here’s info on my character:
Name: Bramnus Axebane
Race: Hill Dwarf
Class: Barbarian
Background: Folk Hero
Backstory: Bramnus is a hill dwarf barbarian who has been trained by his clan for adventure. His clan lives on the outskirts of Faerûn as the first line of defense. While visiting a neighboring town, Bramnus’ clan was killed by an army of orcs led by Vakgar the Wretched. With no home left to return to, Bramnus roams the land helping others while searching for clues to the whereabouts of Vakgar.
Ok, I have a base profile for Hedrak here (I may still juggle his ability scores some, but I think they look decent?).
Race: Half-Orc
Class: Fighter (into Eldritch Knight)
Since I am not experienced with D&D5e I just went with a straight sword and board approach - I imagine Hedrak as having been adopted by a band of orcs, after the shaman managed to convince the tribal leaders she 'saw something in him'. As part of his apprenticeship, he is expected to 'travel the world. see what is unseen, kill the unkillable, master the Weave, and return to claim destiny!' - yeah... He is not really sure what that means either. Either Aggradar, the leading shaman is really a visionary, or she has completely lost it...
Also interested, bit of a veteran to D&D and pbp, I would much rather make a character that will be interesting in world so if you're willing to have me I'd like to workshop the character later
Heyo! I would love to join if you are still accepting applicants. Been playing as a character for almost 3 years now. Your campaign sounds pretty awesome to be honest.

(ALSO - please be kind to your fellow players)
Thank you.
I am interested. How often do you plan on posting/interacting?

Hi, I'd love to join this group. Is there an application I need to fill out or something?
I will protect those I hate. Even ... even if the one I hate most ... is ... myself.
I don't believe so. I'm new to the platform but I believe we can just go when the players are set.
Good to know CDShark - I always have a lot of ideas mulling in my head, but I think I will want to give the Eldritch Knight a twirl. I am just a sucker for gishes :D
Will start working on it.
Im flexible on class to play. I am most interested in a wizard or a rogue but I can come up with a character for any class really.

I'm interested. Looking to play a human rogue, going arcane trickster, with a sage background, kind of a failed wizard/finder of lost books backstory.
