The embers of war have finally cooled across the continent of Cin'Dor, but tension lingers. A year has passed since Ulvric Gilltar seized the crown, reshaping the old Ratar Kingdom into Cindaval. Stripping the traditional nobility of their power and enacting a system of viceroys. Filling the nobility with thoughts of treachery while the common streets simmer with whispers of rebellion.
Beyond the stone walls, a darker menace stirs. They call it Moonblight, a mysterious, arcane plague creeping from those forsaken by the gods, the Lesser.
Now, the fate of the realm hangs in the hands of the unassuming few. Will they... nay, will YOU follow the threads of fate and bring salvation. Or will you stand idly by, watching it turn to ash.
Hi everyone! The world of Vindralia, specifically this campaign I'm calling A Kingdom's Blight takes place in my homebrew world of Vindralia. It’s based on a recently cancelled campaign set in the same continent and country. But don't worry, this is a new campaign which takes place 3 years after the previous one with new villains (mostly) and new storylines. This campaign will centre around your characters and your choices. Even subtle decisions can ripple outward and drastically affect the world!
Quick info about me:
Hi! I’m Mert, a 26 year old from Sweden. I’ve been playing D&D for roughly 6 years and have been DMing for 2 of those. As for my DMing style, I’d classify it as player focused, as I love shaping a story around the characters in mind first. That said, I tend to include elements of political intrigue, realism, mystery, and morally grey scenarios.
Campaign info:
We will start at level 7 as the remaining 3 players of the previous group want to keep playing out their previous characters' stories. We all aim to make it a long lasting campaign where we follow an arc based format where we finish "smaller campaigns" all interlocked. Each arc aims to resolve a main story as well as aspects of the players backstories.
Game: D&D 5e (with the 2024 rules) Group type: Online Experience: All are welcome, as long as you enjoy a roleplay-focused game Platform: Discord for voice, Foundry VTT for maps and visuals Schedule: Weekly on Wednesday 19:00 GMT+1/CEST Age requirement: 20+, this is to avoid large age gaps (average group age is around 30) Available spaces: 2 Game style: Roleplay-heavy. Approximate split is 30% Combat / 55% Roleplay / 15 % Exploration split. Roleplay percentage varies with player decision.
Notes About the game:
Picking up from a previous story means certain story beats are already established, such as dissatisfaction of the new king.
Character creation will be a collaborative process during Session 0. Please keep this in mind and don’t get too attached to a specific concept beforehand.
I generally allow any official content like Xanathar's Guide to Everything and Tasha's Cauldron of Everything.
Homebrew content is discussed and agreed upon during Session 0.
Unwanted PVP and evil PCs will not be allowed. However, character conflict based on well written backstories such as clashing ideals may be permitted with the understanding that everyone is okay with it.
I'm not working against you, I'm working with you to create a great story, I merely react to your decisions and narrate your story. This means that if you have a cool idea you wanna execute do tell me and I can assist you (within reason).
Reflavouring content to achieve a desired fantasy is allowed and encouraged!
The game will be run closely to the official rules, this is to keep consistency in the world. . Exceptions can be made if situations arise where the rules don't make sense or excessively limit player agency. This means that the rule of cool will take priority but I will use the official rules and agreed upon homebrew rules as a strong guideline
Notes About the campaign world:
Mid-high fantasy setting. Magic is common, but powerful magic such as 9th-level spells are rare. Even archmages often cannot cast them.
Tinkering and advanced mechanics (for instance clock towers) are rare and warforged do not naturally exist in this world. (You can still play an artificer or warforged, just be aware of how rare such things are in the setting.)
Everything is negotiable in sessions 0 except for:
Meta gaming, meaning acting on info your character doesn't know such as a monster's stat block isn't allowed (if you read this far randomly write banana in your application). You’re expected to act only on information your character would reasonably know.
Intolerance towards people of specific ethnicity, sexual orientation etc
Sexual Assault and eRP won't be allowed. Romance such as flirting with NPCs etc will be allowed, and amongst players even flirting requires established consent.
Boundaries must be respected. For example, if a player says they’re uncomfortable with child endangerment and you deliberately introduce it anyway, you may be warned or removed from the game, depending on the situation.
Player Application
Please use the following format to apply. You may post it in this thread or fill this form if you want more privacy.
What I should call you (name or nickname) and your preferred pronouns.
How long you have been playing D&D 5e and/or other TTRPGs.
Favorite D&D moment. Or if you're a beginner, why do you wanna play D&D?
What kind of character you would like to play, personality-wise. Try to avoid mechanical descriptions like “I wanna be a human grave cleric with the observant feat”, instead write something like “Horim Doomhammer has always been quiet, he prefers winding down his day in a tavern with some ale and friends. Nothing seems to provoke him except when someone insults his friends, he always springs to action to defend those dearest to him and seemingly loses his reserved mannerisms in the face of abuse”
EDIT: I've found plenty of people to interview and I'm very likely to fill the 2 slots. Therefore I've closed this thread, if the circumstances change I'll reopen the thread
I am aged 21 and have been a TRPG player on and off for 4 years by now. I have been a player most of the time, but I have DMed some one-shots. I am experienced in DnD and competent in GURPS.
My favourite trpg moment was when I was playing an archaeologist/scholar the go-to party member for any non-magical questions. I was able by using suttle cluews to figure out what happened to the kobolds in the city and why even though they were the main builders of the city now (200years after the city was built) gone and hiding. It turned out that the city had fallen into some very hard times and the ruling families blamed them for the hardship and basically had a Kristallnacht organised against them. For DND, especially my favourite moment was when our DM said 3 seasons ago for fun (mostly so we would stop asking questions and leave) that a magic newspaper dispenser was stupidly made and contained enough stored energy to explode as a mini nuke. We used this magic news box as our trump card to save a city for one of the evil orc generals (it was an end game level boss, we were level 3 and supposed to run). 2 of our party members died, and my pc got heavily injured, but we managed to save the city.
As far as what character I want to play, I don't have any limitations or specific goals (I need to see what the party is like and what we need) I can play anything from evil nobles trying to enslave villages to quests and well-meaning but scary beasts. I can't fully tell you now what I want to play as I need more info on the lore atmosphere, expected play style and party requirements. I am super flexible on my RP and can fill whatever role we need.
But if you want an example from one of my favourite PCS, I can give you one: Leonidas is what some people would classify as an introvert, never outwardly speaking to people, and always afraid to speak his mind, yet you could always understand what he wanted to say from his body language. A leonin warrior and fighter he has to show the world what he is capuble of.
If you would like to ask more questions or formally accept me I would like if posible to get in to contact with you via Discord, if possible, as I may not see the DND beyond messages. My user name is: mr.peoulis
