Hi there! I’m running a play-by-post campaign of the adventure Curse of Strahd on Discord. This game will be specifically for newer players, especially if you’re brand new to the hobby. I’m more than happy to teach folks how to play.
Instead of using voice or video, we will play by post, which means we’ll write what our characters do and say in text posts on Discord. “PBP” is a great way to learn the game and get comfortable with roleplaying since you will have time to think and write out your character’s actions. I include a lot of art and maps to help players visualize the situations we’ll find ourselves in.
The ideal player is age 18+, enjoys writing, and likes to share the spotlight. They are polite and friendly.
Game: D&D 5e
Style: Standard mix of RP, combat, and exploration
DM Experience: About 2 years
Schedule: Play-by-Post
Time Zone: I’m on CT, but time zone isn’t very important in a PBP game. We’ll post when we can post.
Pace: Each player should ideally post once or twice a day. If you have extenuating circumstances, the group will understand, of course.
Platform: Discord
Levels: 1-10
Players Needed: 4
If this campaign sounds like the one for you, post below. Let me know your experience and what type of character you would want to play. I’m looking for clear writing and positive vibes. :)
Hey! This sounds pretty interesting I'd love to be considered. I've had experience with text based d&d style RP for years. But in terms of official d&d game experience I only have a handful of sessions under my belt. I'm not exactly brand new, but I still have a lot to learn and plenty of questions to ask about the mechanics of d&d. I was looking to get into a regular voice campaign but I've found my confidence isn't quite there yet so I think a PBP will be much more in my comfort level right now, since text based RP with roll mechanics has been a part of my life for 5+ years now.
The character I'm currently looking to put to use is a Draconblood Dragonborn. He's a Fighter and his Archetype is Battle Master. I have his backstory mostly fleshed out but I wasn't sure how much information you wanted right this second.
Anywho, I would love to be a part of the action! My discord is 🐃 EffingWaterBuffalo 🐃 #6669 if you want to get ahold of me!
I’d love to play! I’m fairly new to DnD and have been playing with a group of friends in Roll20. I enjoy role playing and working through the adventure in character. Let me know if there’s room for one more.
Been playing the game for nearly three months now (discord only in one of those living world type deals) and would love the opportunity to participate in an actual campaign setting.
I like to play the more supportive roles and am willing to adapt to the parties needs dependant on the setting. I've played with a combat support sorcerer who is all about battlefield control, a conjuration wizard who is all about utility (creatively conjuring items and such for use in both rp and combat, demiplanes and magic mansions if we get to that stage) and have been playing with ideas for a healer that I'm looking forward to playing.
Never played by post but daily posts will not be a problem for me.
29M, based in the UK, GMT+0 if it matters. Thanks for considering.
Hey so I'm new and I'm interested in learning how dnd plays and work. I have a level 1 human barbarian that i'd like to use. Discord is dndpro100#2372.
myślę, że mógłbym dołączyć, posiadam 15 lat, gram w D&D od 2 lat, mogę wysyłać około 2 razy dziennie (oczywiście raz na jakiś czas może zdarzyć się wyjątek), gram łowcą krwi, jeśli to problem, to mógłbym stworzyć nową postać innej klasy, nie jestem toksyczny i posiadam discorda, pasuje mi możliwość pisanej gry, mam nadzieję, że zostanę przyjęty
My wife and I would be interested in joining. We have a little experience but definitely on the new end. We are CST as well, but pretty flexible in our timing, to keep things moving. We have some builds, but also happy to play whatever role or role type to make a cohesive group.
Hi! I am a completely new player interested in playing a cleric, but can adapt to what the current party needs in terms of class. I am on a GMT +3 timezone, though since this is text based I can for sure post a minimum of 3-4 times a day. I would like to try out role-playing and am interested in how dnd works, and have some character ideas with some backstory. Thanks :)
I'm late to the party but highly interested. (sorry I had to delete the last post. It caused a strange error and would not let me do anything. Made a strange situation there) I'm Z. I'm in my early 30s. I just finished my Masters in Library and Info Science (Diploma is in the mail I hope!); I work in a Records/Archives dept. Mon-Fri. So I'd most likely post in the morning before work, and then after work. Doubtful I'd pop it open during work lunch. I've got maybe 15hours of 5E between one shots and pbp that broke sadly. So I am a big fan of trying more PBP; as I like having writing time. I am super interested in Strahd; I know nothing of it. but I keep being told to play it. PbP sounds perfect for it. I have played Pathfinder/Starfinder/Exalted in the past. So i'm not new to RP in general. But i'm certainaly new to 5E.
As a player, I love being the side kick, I always identify with them more. I love helping the hero cluch the moment, or support their faultering. I love being a Gap-Fill character type. I love being ablt to do a lot-Even if I'm only decent at it; or aiding the other person doing it. (I really wish Tandeum Tactian had made it; as I loved bonus action Help!). Basically I tend to love being the sidekick of the group; helping others best I can.
To that end. I love playing Alchemist Artificers. While their restricted damage is rough; and the Elixirs are overly expensive(in terms of Spell Slots; but especially in Action Economy). I love the large amount of tools the subclass gives me. being able to heal, hurt, defend,tool use, utility elixirs, variety of spells. I don't know anything about Strahd, but the restriction to Fire, Acid, Poison could be problematic for the game. but still quite fun. Also can do weapons to a moderate extent~ could go Alchemist/Mastermind Rogue and rock a weapon and help action~ Also he can cook!
I've written out an Alchemist backstory a while back for fun, that might fit Strahd (I'm assuming its probably Dracula-esq setting?). So it actually probably fits decently. Though that one assumes starting at level 2+ (built for a warlock 1-4 (depenidng on story) Alchemist X) His master was a Genie without him knowing. Who granted his wish for knowledge and gifted him a Mobile Lab (the genie vessel); but uses thet vessel to also watch his life as a form of entertainment. With Red (the Alchemist) never actually realizing what happened. The entire skillset and magic is fluffed purely as Alchemy or enchanted items; as Red had no ability with magic, so he learned alchemy and enchanting from his Master. So I'd need to modify the story slight to remove the Genieness.. or just take it at level 2, and just have him not use his Mobile Research Lab until that point; with his backstory explaining the pact.
Long post there. Sorry about that. But if I sound like a potential good fit for you. I'm interested!
