I'm looking to recruit 2-3 players to resurrect my currently defunct Exandria campaign. The setting is the Shattered Teeth, which I've taken the liberty of creating a great deal of lore for due to it being largely untapped in the shows canon. The two current party members are a barbarian and a warlock, both 5th level, and we are looking to play at least to level 10 if not higher. It's fairly sandbox, though there will be an ultimate central plot to tie it all together. With all that, let's go over expectations:
1. While this is in Exandria and I'm a Critter, you are not required to have any background knowledge of the setting to participate. Likewise, I wrote the setting out prior to the start of campaign 3, and it seems like every other episode of the show drops a major lore tidbit. So considering we aren't canon, if anything on the show suddenly contradicts our campaign, we will default to our campaigns established lore to avoid derailing. This is set between the events of campaign 2 and 3, as an fyi. 2. I'm a super chill person and in general do not enjoy confrontation, as I'm sure none of us do. So, no drama. Ever ever. I will always treat you with respect, I will never "raise my voice" at you, and expect the same from my players. This is a game after all, so let's have fun. If I make a call you disagree with or something else comes up, send me an IM and we will talk it over. That being said, there will likely be confrontation in character, which is completely fine. In fact just to preface this, one of the current characters has a lot of trauma is typically pretty blunt or even rude without meaning to be, so please keep that in mind if you are chosen to join. 3. Speaking of joining, the spots are not first come first serve. We've had a long stretch of players suddenly disappearing off the face of the earth. I really do not want to recruit again. So I want to get to know everyone first before I invite you in. Please don't take it as an insult, I just want to make sure the group is cohesive and we are good to move towards completing our adventures. 4. Posting expectations - Please try to post once a day. We're playing in Discord which can admittedly get a little chaotic. If we start moving so fast we are leaving some of the party behind, I may ask everyone to pause for a couple hours. It's weird finding a balance, but once we do it'll be great. If you are going to have days or date spans where you can't log in and write, I just ask that you let me know. I'll do the party the same courtesy and let you know if I'm unable to post for a bit. 5. Due to content, I will only take applicants over the age of 18. The campaign will feature horror elements, violence, general vulgarity and gore. For any sexual content we will fade to black if it comes up.
Other than that, feel free to IM me with any questions. You can use the template below for your application, and I plan to close apps on 7/7/2023. I will also post on the thread once final decisions are made. Happy gaming!

Race/Class and Subclass: An Air Genasi Tempest cleric
Brief backstory or concept: Zephyr spent life on the sea as a simple fisher, his easy going laid back attitude allowed him to get along with everyone he met. Spending life at sea wasn't always pleasant, he learned the sea could be a cruel mistress and a power to be respected. It was this that lead him to pray to and follow the lord of storms Kord.
It was his dedication to Kord that led Him to grant Zephyr divine power. With this new found power, Zephyr stepped away from fishing to start adventuring.
I like your expectations; especially the no drama. I feel this pbp is a great low stress way for players and dm to have fun and walk an adventure together

Name/Pronouns: Gi Chalegre Character Name: Thaurea Prior DnD and Play-by-Post experience:
I´m a Dnd player for many years, recently exploring Eberron with more details and DMing a presential party.

Thaurea grew up in a nomadic tribe that roamed the wild and majestic lands of the mountains. From a young age, she were drawn to the beauty and balance of the nature surrounding her. While she has being trainned to become a skilled hunter and strong warrior, she found her special connection with the natural world. During one of her journeys through the forest, she stumbled upon an ancient druid, a wise master of the forces of nature. This druid noticed her affinity for the wilderness and began to train her in the ways of druidic magic. They taught her the secrets of communing with the elements, the importance of preserving the balance of nature, and how to channel the life energy that flows through all things. She spent time since then in training, learning to shape-shift into different animal forms, using magic for healing and protection, and to understand the patterns of nature. However, a disturbing vision began to haunt her dreams. She saw some darkness threatening the nature and adventurers in danger, and she felt called to intervene. Moved by this vision, Thaurea decided to leave her tribe and embark on a journey to Phandalin, in search of answers and to play a role in the destiny that nature has in store for her. Her tribe may not fully understand her choice to become a druid instead of a warrior, but they respect her pursuit of harmony and know that she are destined to tread a unique path.
Hey folks, loving the applications so far. If it helps with character building to see it put together from a math perspective, we are doing 4d6 drop lowest with a minimum total score of 72. All official races and classes/subclasses are allowed. Homebrew could be, but you would have to get it approved by me. Please reach out with any questions.

I'm an old-school gamer, even played some very early addition D&D as well as some other systems. I'm creative, fun, and play nice with others. I love the role-playing aspect of characters. I'd be interested in playing a paladin or cleric perhaps. I usually come up with interesting characters and mostly can post in a pbp 1/day or more. I would be willing to creatively customize the character to fit your campaign. Let me know if you're intrigued and we can talk more.
