Looking for 4 players for a One D&D Playtest Game.

It'll be played as close to RAW as I can get.

Set in a city with several nearby dungeons.

4 Players, each playing a different class.

Bard:

Cleric:

Ranger:

Rogue:

Starting at 1st, super rapid milestone advancement.

Recruiting will close fast, as I want to get going quickly.

PBP in this forum, will obviously not expect characters to be created with DDB.

I’d be interested. I’m thinking I’ll play a goliath cleric. How should we determine ability scores?

I've never played a PbP game, but here goes I guess

What methods are allowed for ability scores? Also, how long is the adventure expected to take?

I should mention that I'm considering playing a rogue or bard, likely a half-elf or halfling

Okay I think I'm going to play a halfling rogue.

I'd love to play a ranger of some kind! Maybe half-orc? 

Edit: forgot about dragonborn changes, I'd love to test those!

I'm new to PBP but would love a chance to join.  Looks like the bard is the last spot, maybe I could be half-elf bard?

I have nothing against new players joining, but everyone must understand this is a playtest first, Game second.  If you aren’t aware “One D&D” refers to the rules currently released as Unearthed Arcana for testing.  The biggest thing is the only species(races) I will allow are the ones in the Character Origins pdf and the newest pdf.

Ability scores are default array..

leveling will be rapid and the story will time jump

Pbp adventures are played asynchronously, posting once per day or so.  This game will hopefully run for months, testing new rules as the release them.

I could do a dragonborn bard.

 Got it. I'll start work on my character. I assume the setting is Forgotten Realms?

Setting is a homebrew city and surroundings.

Human Rogue, in training to become an assassin

Eldon Jamjar

Halfling Rogue

Str 8, Dex 17, Con 14, Int 13, Wis 13, Cha 10

Criminal background

Will post backstory in a bit

Standard D&D fantasy.

I will repeat I only am taking one per class.  I’ll select who gets in based on my whims.

Update: it's like 11:20 PM where I live so I'll write up my backstory tomorrow

I understand the playtest priority and have reviewed the relevant documents.  If chosen to continue, I would like to be:

Sierra Fireflower, a late-20s Human-Elf species mix with High Elf traits and appearance that passes as human.  Her background is a customized Entertainer.  She grew up with her human mother while traveling with a small performing group.  Sierra learned to sing, dance, and play the flute as part of the act, but also learned the subtler arts of charm, and persuasion.  Despite never knowing her father, her half-elf heritage aided her grace and keen perception.  Not long ago, her mother accepted a permanent position with a noble family as a retirement from the burdens of constant travel.  Sierra gathered her belongings and a few gifts from the troupe before setting out for her own bardic career.

Sorry I'm late

Eldon Jamjar was born in the outskirts of [large city]. His parents were absent since he was young. A gang of bandits/marauders/thieves guild took him in, where he learned to pick pockets and avoid direct confrontation. Over the years, Eldon became the go-to guy for stealth and scouting jobs, earning himself quite the reputation among the gang. Recently, the group's base was sieged by (either the city watch or a rival gang), forcing them to flee. As he escaped, Eldon picked up whatever supplies he could, and set off to forge a new identity as an adventurer, where he hopes to reunite with his group one day.

Closing Recruitment.

The following are already selected.

caelT8 Goliath Cleric

Lillypaddles Dragonborn Ranger

The other four are competing for 2 slots.  Hambergler, and Aaggie, It would help me make my decision if you gave a sentence or two to flesh out your character.
