D&D Beyond
"In a galaxy far far away, these are the voyages of some people who travel with the Devil Merlin, the Archfey Morgana, and the Angel Arthur. You'd think those three are the heroes...Yeah no, not even close. THESE THREE NEED YOU! DARING ADVENTURER, Join the crew of the Legends of the Verse and explore the wider world of Dark Matter!"
Hey everyone, I am running a Dark Matter 5e Scifi campaign with some friends, and due to recent IRL events we have had two players leave the table, which has opened spots up for others. So the party and I are looking for some amazing players to join us on our wacky adventurers, and maybe even become friends along the way!
To leave a few things out in the open, I am an experienced DM who enjoys the roleplay ability of things over combat, but, I do run combat rather difficult, with some nice Sh*t kicker ones in as well, always good for stressful week therapy. I enjoy telling stories and while i always do write an over arching story for the campaign, I am equally intrigued as to the stories the players dive in to follow.
Also, I am a pretty easy going guy, but I wont be pushed or bullied into just giving things away. So the list below are a few requirements for players to agree to when reposting your answers. Thanks for your time!

Questions you have for me?
Hello!
This sounds like it would be amazing, I have been hoping to find someone wanting to play a Dark Matter game as soon as it would be available! I've included my answers to your list of requirements below.
A little info about me: My name is Jake, I'm 32, have played for 17 years, and have been involved in theatre and performing arts for over 20 years. As such, D&D absolutely scratches that performing/improv itch and I am always ready to jump into character. My IRL group of many years has fallen apart due to...*waves at all of 2020*...mainly because the majority were not interested in playing online/via Discord.
Play over Discord: Yes
You have a Microphone and understand that IT IS required for play, and not having one will disqualify you : Yes, a BlueYeti
You can make every Bi-weekly session unless extreme emergency : Yes
Your Experience In Role Play : I've played D&D since 3.5 Edition, have also spent a few years playing Pathfinder 1st Edition.
What you like about SciFi? : Like space itself, the possibilities are endless! The idea of playing in SciFi game just means so much can happen, I cannot wait for a chance to see what danger lies ahead and figure out the best way to make it out alive. Huge fan of Star Trek, Star Wars, Firefly, Stargate (I might be one of the few who loved Universe), Dune...name it and I've seen it. I was so stoked upon seeing the Dark Matter Kickstarter that I backed it as soon as I could.
What Is meta Gaming?: Using knowledge in game that I the player would know but that the character would not have any way of being aware of.
Do you own a copy of Dark Matter? Yes, I backed PDF and Physical Copies so I should at least have the digital copy in September per the pledge.
Classes : WOTC Published Classes (this doesnt mean UA), Mage Hand Press Classes - I agree
Races : WOTC Published Races, MHP Races - Agree
What Level Will you be? 6
You understand Stats will be rolled in R20 : I understand
Character Idea : An Orcish Bones McCoy/Hawkeye Pierce-esque cynical healer and practicer oftof Arcane. While other orc went about putting wrench and hammer to building their way around the 'Verse, I was more pulled by a feeling of how the old ways of magics helped to make and hold together the fabrics of the expanse. Down on his luck, he is just trying to get through each day without accidentally or intentionally killing someone. (Debtaing between Orc Divine Soul Sorcerer or Arcane Domain Cleric)
Character Age 18+ : mid to late 20s
Player Age 18+: 32
You understand that just because this is an 18+ game doesn't mean degenerate behavior.
I understand
Questions you have for me?
- What size of a group were you looking for?
- Voice only or would we also use webcam?
- How much character background/prep work would you prefer players do prior to coming to the table?
- Do you do a Session 0 to introduce everyone or do you prefer to jump into it at session 1?
