D&D Beyond
About me as a DM: I was first introduced to DnD back in roughly 2018 with Critical Role, and didn't start played till late 2019 (DMing a bit shortly after). I am a 37 year old, Genderfluid/Non-binary person who uses they/them pronouns. I am Autistic with ADHD and may fall back (to start) on to RAW (Rules as Written) to start with in the event of any "out there" ideas as the story progresses. However, I do absolutely LOVE when people get creative in their roleplaying and story telling and Rule of Cool is absolutely something I believe in and utilize.
System: Dnd 5E (primarily 2024 ruleset, but open to utilizing 2014 subclasses/species etc if needed)
Age: 18+
Session Times: Bi-Weekly on Saturday or Sunday's (basically it will be the opposite weekends that I play on Sundays ie: Nov 2/3, Nov 16/17 etc);
Exact Session time: Sundays - so far looking at Session 0 on Nov 17 (morning MT ish)
Session Length: Roughly 3-4 Hours
Voice Chat: Discord (webcam optional)
Maps: Most Likely Above VTT (chrome extension, that integrates with DDB), but possibly Foundry
Type of Game: I like to run games that are (roughly) 60% Roleplay, 25% Dynamic Combat, 5% Puzzles
Themes: Often some political intrigue, fate/destiny, a bit darker fantasy, possible plane hopping, tied in backstories
Safety Tools: We will employ standard "Traffic light" style safety tools (red X for stop etc) as well as I will have a fairly comprehensive Lines and Veils sheet for players to fill out. We will also have a Session 0 to go over safety tools, and other elements of the campaign.
Basic Rules: There will be specific Server rules in the discord server we will play in, however in general all I ask is that people Respect each other (pronouns, beliefs etc).
Character Creation:
Species: Anything Official EXCEPT Yuan'ti (Truly sorry I just can't make them make sense in my world)
Classes/Subclasses: Anything Official (just ask/provide a breakdown for Homebrew for acceptance or rejection)
Level: 5
Rolled Stats: (4d6 keep 3 highest) - (total stat numbers need to add up to minimum 70) + you can roll 3 extra Stat rolls (so 3 extra 4d6 rolls) and you can choose to substitute them in or not.
Extras: I am going to allow ONE extra level 1 feat (unrelated to origin feats) BUT it must make sense for your background not just mechanically
Backstory: I absolutely LOVE to integrate character backstories not only into the story but the world as a whole. The more integrated you create a character the better in my opinion. (and I am always willing to answer questions related to helping you create a backstory for the world.
World/Story:
World Lore: The world is called Atemnity. Atemnity was born by the will of those who would be gods. It began with two mortals on Earth who became gods known as Chaos and Harmony; they each have their own values, beliefs and tenants. After a 1000 or so year long war a new god was born from the conflict called Equipoise, A god of true Balance and Neutrality.
More info can be found on my ever evolving Wiki: The World of Atemnity Wiki
Story Beginning: This story will begin in a world simmering with potential conflict that could throw the world into war and more importantly out of balance. We will start this story at the graduation of the 6th (and final) year students of the prestigious Hawthorne Institute of Legends in Relarian. Players will be playing either 6th year students from any of the various school tracks (Hero, Villain, Guardian, Royalty) OR a character with a narrative reason to be either at the school or nearby the school at this time. If players would like to tying your backstories in with one another is encouraged.
This portion of the Wiki outlines Hawthorne School in detail.

5/5 Players (okay to take 1 more)
Hi me and a friend of mine are looking to join a campaign so this post is from me and him both.
We have made a unlce and a nephew. me playing the uncle who is a hunter that lives in a small village (ranger class). and him being a (druid) living with me because his parrents where killed. I like the idea of him attending the school and i happen to live close by, maybe even being a gronds keeper for the school.
I like to feel conected to a world and i can really immerse myself into a story. my friend really likes to explore different setting's and is very foccused in having a good bond in the party.
we have both played in two short campaigns where we tried to have a good bond in the party but people where more intressted in being murder hobo's. that kinda drained the fun out of the game for us.
Hi!
Only question I would have about this is the time of day this game would run and for how long. Other than that, I look forward to hearing back!
May our roads be lined with adventure, love, and laughter!
Time of day will depend on what those chosen can do but i plan for sessions to be about 3-4 hours long
Awesome, I'll just put forward that I can run up anytime up until 5pm on either day typically. Hopefully that works with the rest of the group should I be chosen. If not no hard feelings and thanks for the consideration ^_^
May our roads be lined with adventure, love, and laughter!
