EDIT: This is now closed! Thank you so much for your applications!
Game: A combination of D&D 5e and Good Society Group type: Online Experience: Anybody is welcome to apply! Location/Timezone: My timezone is EST, but as long as you can reasonably make it, timezone isn't a huge concern (the two people set up to play are both on the other side of the world lol) Schedule: The specific time has not been decided yet, but we'll be playing on alternating Saturdays! Roles sought: Player; I'm currently looking for 2-3 players! Game style: While this game will have combat, it won't be super frequent. This is a VERY roleplay-heavy collaborative campaign, so if that isn't your thing, this isn't the group for you!
Now, with all of that out of the way...
Welcome to Fold The Deck! It's a campaign in a homebrewed world that I began to design...somewhat recently? But due to my hyperfixation, I already have a ton of it done (most of it, really). In this world, you'll be playing as somebody of high social standing, someone that has to weave their way through the delicate nature of high society while also keeping your allies close and your enemies closer. In addition to this, there's a sinister plot going on in the background that you, and your newly found companions, just might have to stop in order to save your own skin.
We have two players currently! Each player is using one of the archetypes from Good Society as the launch point of their character; so far, the Heir and the Cornerstone have both been picked! Other than that, any of the archetypes are available as a starting point (again, that is as I'm writing up this message, so keep 1-3 in mind that you might want to play as! Your options, just in case you're unaware, include the following; The Socialite, The Dowager, The Dependant, The New Arrival, The first code word is Gambit, The Meddler, The Hedonist, The Tutor, and The Careerist).
The whole base concept of this is similar to the base concept for Dimension 20's 'A Crown of Candy', though I can promise that this will be nowhere near that brutal (at least, in terms of combat)! Except instead of Candy Land, this world (or at least, the society you're all playing in) is based on playing cards; more specifically, the game War (in which Aces are the most powerful (those are the gods of this realm), and 2s are the least powerful (the poorest of commoners)). So the social hierarchy is Aces (again, the gods of this realm; deity is the second code word), then the royal families (Kings, Queens, Jacks, and 10s), the nobility (9s, 8s, and 7s), the middle class (6s and 5s), and then the lower class (4s, 3s, and 2s). Your character will end up being a 6 at the very lowest!
The campaign will be beginning on the day before the most important event of the year, for commonfolk and royalty alike; The Festival, which is a one-month-long huge holiday event that happens during the exact middle of the year! I plan to have the campaign run through two separate festivals, so for at least a year and a month. And years last for 15 months in this world, so for at least 16 in-game months! Though we can certainly do more if the party wants to! I've had a lot of fun developing this world so far, and I can definitely find ways to expand upon the plot!
The reason for the rating is due to mature themes; also, myself and the current players are all adults, and we have an adult sense of humor. Also, there are themes that I don't feel comfortable exploring with minors, so if you're not 18 or older, please don't apply! Also, please don't apply if you're over 30; this is just a personal preference, I don't want to play with people that are more than a decade older than me, you know? Oh! Also! The final code phrase is 'The Horror, The Cat, and The Crow'. Thank you so much for reading my little posting! Oh, and here's the link to the Google application form! https://forms.gle/KxQ5Aninqj4sVDMs7
This is very different from the campaigns I'm used to and be apart so I am very much interested joining. I just turned 26 so I hope thats not to close to the age gap your trying to avoid and if it's not you should know that depending on the time the campaign starts I'll likely be late every other week because my working shifts swap between early and late every week but if none of that's a problem I'd love to join. I'll leave my discord here cause I assume thats what we're using GhostSavage#9506
