Are you new or relatively inexperienced to tabletop games like D&D? Would you like to play in a stress-free environment that understands you're still learning? I'm looking for players just like you for an upcoming campaign. Please keep reading.
Hello everyone, I'm a moderately experienced DM looking to run an online game for new and beginner players to learn to play the game in a low pressure environment. My DMing style has more emphasis on combat (we almost always use grid based combat) with an otherwise even split of roleplay and exploration. This is an LGBT+ friendly group, so expect that some players in the group may be part of the LGBT+ community. We're looking for nice, friendly people with open minds and a decent level of maturity. Please no 'edgelords' or people whose personality is 50% memes and irony. That being said, here are some details about the game:
First Session: This will be sometime later this month, the week after Thanksgiving most likely. We will do a session zero.
Campaign: Lost Mine of Phandelver from the D&D 5e Starter Set.
Group Size: 4-5 players
Time: I am looking to run games on Friday once a week, in the afternoon to the evening starting around 6PM or so. Sessions will ideally be around 3-6 hours long. My timezone is CST(GMT-6), so please only apply if you'll be able to play at the appropriate time. I appreciate the interest from overseas players, but I don't want to run a game where some of the players might be sleepy because it's something like 2am for them when we start.
Age Requirement: We'd like to stick to only 18+ players in the group.
Content Allowed: Official published content only. Core races only. No player homebrew or UA without approval. MTG backgrounds are ok if you work with me first to adjust them for the Forgotten Realms.
Homebrew: The game will be largely Rules As Written / Rules As Intended, but I will sprinkle a few homebrew rules here and there.
Stats: Standard array. No exceptions (15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8)
Optional Rules: Feats are allowed. Variant Human is allowed. Multiclassing is not allowed
Alignment: No evil characters or evil playstyles are allowed in this group.
Hardware Requirements: A decent microphone is absolutely necessary. We will be playing over voice chat (no video chat). If you don't own any official content, I can help you get ahold of the basic rules and SRD for character creation.
Software Requirements: We will play over Discord. I will be screen-sharing the battle maps. Players will also be rolling in Discord (Avrae bot)
Personal Requirements: Be a decent person. Don't make others uncomfortable. Don't be toxic. This is a party game. No edgelord or lone wolf type characters, players, or playstyles will be allowed. We're all here to have fun. No one is the main character. You do not have to roleplay or voice act your lines. Only voice as much as you are personally comfortable doing. I get that it's not everyone's style.
Surveys are now closed. Thank you for all the applications! I couldn't possibly fit everyone, but I might save some of your apps and contact you in the future for other games. Thanks again!

Feel encouraged to apply through the survey link. Just know I've gotten quite a few experienced players that also applied. I'm looking to have at most 1 experienced player in the group. If you're a good fit, I would absolutely love to have you though, so don't be discouraged from applying.

Thank you for your interest. I don't think I'm looking to take on a fully premade group right now, but I might be interested in the future, though that might not be for quite a while if so. Feel free to PM me and tell me about your group if you'd like, and maybe someday I'll contact you again when I'm not running other games in case you haven't found a DM by then.
Hello, new player here! Are there any specific character types you are looking for in this campaign? I want to make sure that the character I've created is compatible with the group and setting!

Hi, there are a few restrictions on character creation.
We're using the standard array for stats (15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8)
We're using core races only (The original races from the PHB and SRD)
We're using only officially published content (no homebrew/UA)
Any MTG or Wildemount backgrounds are fine, but I'll help you adjust the flavor for the setting if you pick one
Feats are fine, Variant Human is fine, no multiclassing for this campaign though
Everything else should be fine. If your character isn't compatible in some way, we could always adjust that or make a new one, so no worries.
I've applied and I let you know I am Aussie. Please take me into consideration though I would really appreciate it. Reading your description this sort of campaign seems like the perfect way for me to get into D&D, learn the basics and have fun!
I'm new too this community but thank you in advance for being a DM!
Would be well up for this 🎉☺️. I played about ten games around five years ago and I fell in love with the game. Im no pro but not a complete rookie either. I love to play rogues but will give my hand at other classes if need be. I finish work at 4pm gmt so no problem for the time of the game. If you still need another player then let me know. Alex
Hi am a amateur at dnd being fairly new to the world. I have been looking for a campaign for lost mine. I was wondering if this is still open. Here is my discord if that make communication easier. Str1ker#4684
Hi. Thanks for all your applications. Yes, it's still open to those asking. Until I close the survey and edit the thread to say closed, every application still counts. Thanks for your interest.

For this campaign, I'm strictly looking for 18+ players. In the future I might run a game for players of all ages.
