Game: D&D 5e Group type: Online / Discord + Roll20 (DnD Beyond campaign, but Roll20 for VTT) Age: Adult Schedule: every Wed at 9pm CST (~3 hours) ; Next Session 3/29/2023 Roles sought: Player 1 slots available Game style: 50% rp / 50% combat goal (avg across the campaign but some sessions are heavily more one than the other)
I'm fairly new to DM, and welcome feedback (even harsh) in discord dms after session, in fact consider such feedback invaluable.
The table has suffered a few losses due to changes in availability leading to scheduling conflicts, and we are now short handed for the upcoming sessions.
We generally have a pretty even split of RP and Combat. We had a long side trip where the party did a bunch of exploration and "side quest' wrap up, but now the party is pushing through the final stages of the campaign and is laser focused on the "main quest".
The party consists of: 2xRouge, 1xRanger, 1xWizard
Your possible introductions:
A) There are lots of reasons for "Harpers" or the "Emerald Enclave" to send reinforcements to the party, so any backstory that involves being members of one of those two organizations will fit very well.
Harpers: Concerned with keeping the balance of power, and preventing tyrants by keeping and promoting fair and just rulers by covert means. (Char who seek Arcane Knowledge are good fit)
Emerald Enclave: Preserve the Natural Order and destroy the Unnatural. (Characters with a focus / connection with nature are a good fit)
B) We can always go with the "prisoner" trope, and have you be a captured prisoner in the next section the party runs into. This will allow you to have any back story you desire.
C) Some other creative options you come up with, and I'll help weave you into the story.
Character Creation Rules:
- Point Buy
- Fixed Hp encouraged, if you want to roll for HP you must always roll. Rolls to be online with the party.
- Level 8, close to the level 9 milestone (the camp will take everyone up to 10/11)
- One +2 magic item (wep / armor)
- two common magic items
(that's it for special magic items, its been a struggle for the party to find magic items as they have been at odds with a syndicate that controls the magic items trade in the region)
- Gold : roll on the char creation table, and use to buy equipment (of non-magical nature) as needed (armor upgrades, spell components, ect).
Application:
- Confirm you can make the time slot (every Wed at 9pm CST) ?
- Are you sure you can make it? you pinky swear?
- Are you OK jumping in to the last part of the SKT campaign skipping 3/4 of it?
- What type of table do you prefer? serious? silly? a mix? RP focused? pineapple on pizza eaters?
(DM or post, either way is fine)
Response:
I will look at the thread fri 3/24, a quick intro on discord, and will pick someone then. Thank you for all who take time to show their interest (but only one slot open).
Seems like a fun last bit to join in on and help your party complete their campaign, the time and day works with me and as for table type just want everyone to be respectful. having go mic control is also important sucks when a character is having a good rp moment then another player just starts a convo over the player RPing ruining the moment. anyway hope to hear from you soon thank you!
