Currently looking to find a group with space for two, or a DM to run a campaign for a friend and I. We're looking for a story rich campaign with RP opportunities and exploration. We both have 5th Edition experience and have played in several games, I myself have DM'd. We're both in our late 20's, our time zone is EST/UTC -5, and are LGBTQ+ friendly. We would like a serious setting with opportunities for fun, but nothing too goofy or zany. We would be comfortable with either core adventure or something homebrew.
If interested please be 21 and over, and add a little sample of your DM style.
Below I will link my character, and give some details about them.
Still looking for a group, I'll close the thread when I find one.
Background: Deep beneath the green fathomless depths of The Dawn Sea, seated on a throne of death and bone, crowned by countless drowned stars 'it' resides. Served by a court of its' chosen dreamers, it rules over a nameless city; a city where dark things walk and madness sings. There, lost in their dreams do wayward souls come to grow twisted by their darkened reflections. Herald to the court of drowned stars, servitor to the pale serpent; exalted Calsipher gathers the wretched, downtrodden and the meek. With promises of hope and power he lures them to the dream. Sa that they too may one day see the truth.
Home: Calsipher was birth from the sea itself, a creature born to be the perfect tool for it's maker. He wandered onto the shore of an unsuspecting town of little importance, and fueled by instinct, assumed a personality and began to work. An observant predator he lured those that he could with dreams of power, turned the people of the town against its mayor and offered salvation through his master to the forgotten. The night the Captain took the mayor in, he wondered the snaking road of this new playground. There in the night, underneath the cascading light of a full moon he heard the call of something.. an ornate key. He followed the road up the hill, towards the temple that Fiona now resided over and used the key on its door. This felt fitting to him, after all, this was his masters new temple in this world.
RP Sample: A dirt road emerged from a thick forest, snaked its way down towards the cost then through a large town, comming to its end atop a hill just before a modest temple. A lean woman dressed in black robes stood at its entrance, she looked on as two distant figures argued by the wayside.
"Like morning's mist he drifted into town, innocuous and subtle," spat the Mayor, disheveled in tattered clothes. "With an inviting smile painted on his lips, he whispered words like warmed honeyed milk," each word uttered with a healthy dose of contempt. "Lilac eyes hidden behind a cascade of golden locks beguiled us with their stare, a false trust our faux ami." he bleated.
The Captain of the Royal Guard shifted his weight and said nothing, hoping that the disheveled man would finish his flowery tale.
"He peddled compassion... but little did we know! We allowed a serpent to make its way into our home! Poisoned the well, that viper! Then, they came in the night... those filthy lepers!" he turned red as he flailed his arms with heated vigor. "They dragged the priest out of bed, took him to the lake, and drowned him... and they didn't stop there. They burned the holy icons, and replaced the priest with that, witch!" he said, pointing accusingly towards a woman that stood at the hill. "No one goes near the temple anymore... they can't. It's Blasphemous!" he let out incredulously, almost foaming at the mouth.
After a silent moment, the Captain took his gaze off the woman and brought it back to the Mayor. "I questioned these... 'lepers', they made no mention of a 'golden haired snake'. They did however mentioned the arrangement you had with the priest," he gave pause and observed the Mayors rage vanish, replaced with a mixture of guilt, shame, and fear. "You blame this all on snakes and vipers, but it was the two of you who sold the people snake oil." They mayor's eyes darted, like that of a caged animal looking for an escape. "We have also reason to believe the priest drowned himself," he continued, and pulled out a folded parchment with. "He left a note, its addressed to you. An admission of guilt and a final goodbye."
The Mayor's face drained of blood, he turned to run. His escape quickly halted by a well primed foot. Behind him stood a guard, his uniform immaculate, and one the Captain did not recognize. After a moment of hesitation the Captain, moved to grab the Mayor. "Thank you... recruit, but I had it handled." he said as he restrained the Mayor in hempen ropes.
"Of that I have no doubts, Sir Captain," said the Guard, each word dripping with 'genuine' heartfelt admiration as he looked down on the Mayor through lilac eyes.
I have a campaign, and only one day has passed in-game. It's about a kingdom having strange attacks and a strange storm, and the King has taken some adventurers to go to a Temple in the desert to see what is happening. If you join now, you won't have missed much. Basically just a small goblin attack.
We do need a couple more players, so you're welcome to join.

We started, but very recently. One day passed in game, and nothing important happened. And we did lose 2 players already at the very beggining, so we could use more.

Here it is. You missed nothing important, and we will catch you up to speed. Just get a character. One question though, how often can you post? One of us posts once or twice a day, the others a few times a day.

I would love to join do you want me to PM you?
FYI - we used the ability score rolls in the forum for the character builds, like this: Ability scores: 131214121413
We have a dex-focused tabaxi ranger, a bugbear barbarian, and a half-elf homebrew class. IMHO, we could really use more coverage in magic, face skills, and healing. If we added 2 characters, then it would be great to get a combo like a bard and a wizard. Or a cleric and a sorcerer.
