I am looking to DM a Curse of Strahd PBP. If interested, PM me. You don't have to have a character ready, but you can. Second level, any race/class that is in the PHB. (We can talk about other races, classes, spells, etc) I will not be using XP. I may end up using D&DB maps, and I will have a campaign, and players must be willing to use D&DB characters, and join my campaign. Curse of Strahd is in the normal D&D setting, magic, swords, bows, castles, dragons, you get the point. If you create a character ahead of time, don't add any magic items or anything, as we can talk about those if you make it into the game. Please only 'apply' if you are willing to play through the entire game, or at least warn me if you are thinking about leaving, so I can work that in. The more active you can be, the better. Remember, that this may be a learning curve for some of those playing, as most likely, not everyone will have played a PBP campaign.
Please reply if you think I should add more info, or edit the post in anyway.
I should add, there is a small chance it will not end up being a Curse of Strahd campaign. Depending on how long it takes to get players, I may have a different setting ready.
Sorry, I completely forgot what ASI stands for. Also, are you asking about homebrew and such?
Tasha's optional ASIs is about the racial stat bonuses being malleable. For example a half-orc gets +2 STR and +1 CON by default. With Tasha's you could swap those for +2 DEX +1 INT for example. Main reason for asking is that it helps to know when thinking of a race/class combination if the default racials need to be considered.
As for homebrew, depending on allowed sources would ask if homebrew-copies of official material is allowed. (Ex: replicating mind sliver if it's not a spell you own.) But not in regards to any original homebrew. I own the PHB so anything there I can just get from that.
Ok, I guess to be real, I'm pretty much okay with anything. Don't really care what homebrew (if any) someone uses, as long as it gets run by me real quick. But speaking from experience, from running campaigns in the past, I'm likely to allow almost anything players ask for, as long as it isn't TOO absurd.
note that I am a strict no money person, but I do have many sources shared with me... as such i will make notes throughout my character sheet where materials that I don't have would be

(NO MORE PLAYERS WILL BE ACCEPTED. SLOTS FILLED.)
Question: With limiting to PHB for race/class, would that also apply to things like spells, feats, and Tasha's optional ASIs? Just wondering.
This is a signature. It was a simple signature. But it has been upgraded.

I sent a PM. Something I didn't mention there is that I've never used DnDB maps before but I am willing to learn!
I'm interested...
How do you feel about the new backgrounds (such as from The Book of Many Things) that come with a feat?
Unhappy that the market got rid of individual purchases for one-off subclasses, magic items, and monsters?
Provide feedback!
