This is an OOC chat thread for all Talaveroth players. Here, we can discuss both out-of-game topics (where we're from, General D&D discussions, stories) or in-game topics.
First topics I would like to bring up for discussion:
Where are you from in the real world?
How old are You?
Are there any things you are not comfortable with? E.g : Adult content, romance, etc...
I would prefer to stay light on adult content and focus on adventure, but as long as it doesn't go too far off the rails, I'm okay with it.

I’m a 25 year old Swiss Infantry Signals snd Intelligence Officer, currently doing national service, hence the occasional irregularity of posts.
As per topics, I’m fine with anything really, as long as it makes sense for the narrative, and player agency is respected as far as possible.
And just saying, but if Zyman were to find drugs that could enhance his studying, he’ll definitely “experiment”, for example.

Here's a good video unpacking how deep to go into adult or otherwise difficult content. Matt Coleville is an old hand to dnd and his videos do an amazing job at dealing with some of the most basic and most complicated parts of this wonderful game we play. (11 minutes long if you are on a tight schedule) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EHUCi6ZbVxU
Oh, and about me.
Moved around a fair bit, a few years in Spain, a few in Morocco, but I'm back in the US now.
22 years old, in college, so too much free time (and yet, not enough)
Aaaand I think that video sums up my stance on adult content or general uncomfortable things. I think dnd is, or can be, a good place to experiment and to work out solutions to real life problems - and also a good place to try things and fail. That said, let nothing be gratuitous. We are dealing in fiction, and fiction for the sake of fiction somehow misses even the relief of escapism into a world of dragons and magic.
As mentioned in the other thread, I am from New Zealand. I am a 40 year old English and Media Studies teacher.
I have dabbled in D&D for as long as I can remember but never got the chance to do anything with it until I got involved in PbP. I have also recently started DMing a groups with students at school. They are an...interesting...bunch. 4 of the 5 being in the autism spectrum.
Topics, I am open to most topics, they don’t see the need to go into explicit details about sexual situations for this type of game. Otherwise I am fine 👍
I’m a 27yo engineer from Sweden. I’m new to dnd (this being my first real campaign). I got a lot of time playing in the mornings and during my workday since i have an easy job ^^ During the afternoons though I’m spending time with my 6month old daughter whom I love to death! (Swedish time)

Newbie to the medium here, but not to gaming. Though, it's been a bit since I've played, too. (Super stoked to get back at it!)
I'm in Vancouver, Washington (the other Vancouver that no one seems to know exists, aka not Canada). It's just across the river from Portland, Oregon for reference.
Looking 43 years in the face and it's alright. Nothing too exciting, but I guess that has its merits.
I'm good with whatever is right for the story, too. Appreciate agency, good communication, enjoy different perspectives, and expect challenges to my creative comfort zone. Can't wait!
Spoiler Warning: Pretty sure all my characters have a potty mouth within context and reason, just like their player. Pls let me know if that's a no go for you. I'll try to reign it in.
I've truly enjoyed reading through the main thread. It's a true testament to everyone's talent, especially Grotex's. Bravo to everyone.
Happy b-day Dman! & Go Team 3!
PS: Kaddock is a dirty low down fool and he is not to be trusted. He's really 85 yrs old, but asks like he's 12. Pass it on.
First off this is my first real DnD campaign and Grotex you are making it awesome!!!
It great to meet you all, and thanks for adding to the awesomeness :)
As mentioned in the other thread, I am from Kuwait. I'm 33 yo married and have a beautiful 1 yo daughter. Also I'm kind of a workaholic (a full time job n 3 businesses ) so PbP hits the spot during my down time :P
Im good with all content, so I guess it depends on the crowd.
Dman Happy Birthday, all the best and I hope you have a great one.

Well, to answer your questions in order:
Michigan, USA
As of writing this I will be approaching 30, but by the time everyone has read this I will likely be 30.
Nothing I can think of at the moment.
Hi!
I'm from Portland, Oregon, USA.
I'm 34 and feel 98.
The more adult content and violence, the better. I also do cute and cuddly as well depending on the crowd. :-P

Torment Malichar - Level 8 / Tiefling / Druid of the Underdark, Cleric of Mielikki - Knights of the Hanging Chicken (Team 3)
Master Shovel of the Sandbox - Bane of Kerakys
Plenty! And personal questions are at the top of the list :)
With all seriousness, though, as long as player agency is intact and fun is not made on someone else's expense - everything goes.
Dman,Saerirra, Happy Birthday!
