New to 5e, but I have read to rules and I'm about to DM with my GF.
However, I'm looking for an online group to play on sunday afternoons or evenings. I'm not much into spellcasting, I've mostly played fighter and paladin, played bard in NVN if that counts :-)
I guess that goes without saying, but I'm really looking for a fun group. I don't mind the game being a bit silly at times, as long as we're all having fun. I don't care too much for rule-heavy settings, as a DM I don't use minis unless it's a very specific situation or a huge fight involving lots of people/creatures. I'd rather play with a noob DM that is great as entertaining players than with a veteran DM that will be all about grids and spell-casting AoE, "you are one foot shy of making that attack", if you see what I mean.If it's your thing, great! It's not mine, so we won't fit, so it's better we know before hand!
I take DnD seriously. If I say I want to game on sundays, I'll be there. I'll joke a bit, but I won't keep the campaign from moving forward. I do roleplay, I do use the environment to my advantage (I might try to throw sand in the face of a monster if I get prone in the desert/beach...) and I do love players/DM with imagination.
Stuff I have done in the past :
I once got fed up of trying to find my way in a labyrinth so much I asked the DM if I could try to destroy a wall to get through. After arguing a bit (he was my best friend so no harrm there) he flat out refused saying it would be contrary to the spirit of the setting and he instead told me where to look (again) for a passage (i had searched there and failed...) At the ean of the dungeon, I understood why he refused. The treasure was hidding all within the walls of this castle millions of copper pieces filled the inside walls. It took my characters weeks to empy the walls, filling bags after bags of pieces, teleporting back and forth tp a bank where they would charge me a hefty conversion fee from copper pieces to gold pieces... I ennded up with more than 100 000 gp after all this. (I was at level 26-30 I think).
Playing late as a teen and being immature, I was rewarded a shit potion and a shit-control ring. I wrote them on my character sheet and forgot about them. fast forward 2 years, I'm about 16 and my DM (still the same guy) puts me in a pit shaped like a dome, no rope long enough to climb up, nothing to get me flying, teleported, out of there. He was the kind of guy to set traps without thinking of a way out. There were no ways out. After reading my sheet for the third time looking for a solution, I was about to plea for him to make something happen when it struck me. To be honest, it was late (again) and at 16, I was still (and still am) stupid and immature enough to find it funny, so I said, half jokingly, that I would drink the whole magical shit potion and use what came out of my body with my shit-control ring to sling me out of the hole at the top of the dome shaped pit I was trapped in. He found the idea so stupid, yet so inventive and out-of-the-blue that he accepted. I suffered a moderate amount of damage, but nothing a few healing potions and a shower couldnt restore. 10/10 would do it again.
I'm much older now and looking for a bit less silliness, but once in a while, I can live with some goofiness.
If you think I coould join your group, please tell me!
