Asking for 4 to 6 adventures who are keen to heavy roleplay, working together as a party, and have a schedule that allows posting/checking forums at least twice daily.
Starting at level 1 characters will begin in a high magic world, think Fey Wild, with low human populations. What I can tell you about my lands are they are the 'dawn of humanity' but dominated by beastfolk, elves, dwarves, etc. All races allowed however as well as all classes allowed. Multiclassing will be allowed for levels up but must make thematic sense. Please add a short backstory too. Use 4d6 drop the lowest dice, no 1 rerolls. To bring the group together everyone will share the highest and lowest roll of the party but will be allowed to place it in any stat they would like. We will use DnD rules as written. I am flexible to learning; I have GM'd for 2 years with 5e but still learning. Let's build a story together!
Also addressing issues with character builds: It seems if you don't own editions digitally you can't add them to character sheets and I own nothing so basics it is for your character submissions unless you can sponsor the group with content.
Disclaimer GM doesn't think being rude as a player or a PC is a personality trait but an excuse for the unimaginative and lame. Be kind or move on.
Backstory: Bramnus is a hill dwarf barbarian who has been trained by his clan for adventure. His clan lives on the outskirts of Faerûn as the first line of defense. While visiting a neighboring town, Bramnus’ clan was killed by an army of orcs led by Vakgar the Wretched. With no home left to return to, Bramnus roams the land helping others while searching for clues to the whereabouts of Vakgar.

Name: Aliik
Race: Aarakocra
Class: Monk
Backstory: Raised in an insular monastery, Aliik grew up knowing only the other Aarokocra and Tabaxi who populated his very small world. However, despite his very scholarly appearance, Aliik harbors a deep curiosity about the world and its denizens, and he petitioned the head of his monastery to be allowed to travel, citing the monastery's need for updated maps and Aliik's own skills as a burgeoning cartographer (he'd often flown further than the monastery's boundaries to make his own maps of their territory and what lay just beyond, getting himself into trouble more often than not). He travels now to learn all he can about the world, to sate his seemingly endless curiosity, and to map out all he can of the known (and unknown) parts of the world.
Backstory: Ashul pledged herself to an ancient serpent god as a child. As she grew up and improved her skills and status amongst other yuan-ti, she was sent to one of the fledgling human towns to infiltrate the new society as it grows. Assuming the guise of Nia Mue, she inserted herself amidst the town's council and grew in status amongst the humans. Torn between her mission of infiltrating and reporting on the humans and enjoying the life she had made for herself, Nia struggles with her responsibilities to her yuan-ti heritage. Her drive for power and knowledge calls her to the road however, and she begins to dream of something more.

Backstory: Folk Hero. A bastion of calculated cunning and strict order among so many a flippant and whimsical creature, Garda is a rare solitary dwarf. Having spent her early life in a farm supplying her clan with fresh corn and wheat, she found the work too reliant on things like weather and seasons. So she set out to find like minded individuals and consistent structured life environments. (I don't want to go much further until the story starts... If I get accepted)
Backstory : dafran saw his family and clan murder by vampires after they were allowed to have a feast with them, after the ensuing battle dafran was able to go the near by temple of bohmeit and asked for sanctuary the preist there sent him to train with some dragonborn knights who trained him to fight and now he is on his way to seek a new family no matter the race
Name: Mírion Race: Half-Wood Elf Class: Paladin (Oath of Ancients) Background: Inheritor Backstory: Mírion was raised in the wild mostly by his mother. His father was a protector of the ancients, a wood-elf dedicated to ensuring the the woods remained a place of peace and natural order. When his father would come around he would find himself enthralled by the stories of the woods, the wilds, and the tattoos of his father. Eventually, when he was older he decided to follow in his fathers footsteps. He began to train with a blade and when it became his time to start his journey his father took him through the first rite of the protector. From his neck down his right arm, a tattoo of intertwining lines and knots sealing his fate with the ancients. Now he is on the second rite, proving himself a warrior for the ancients in the world helping to maintain balance and peace.

Character Name: Rinzak Race: Githzerai Class: Wizard (Graviturgist) Background: Far Traveler Backstory: As every Githzerai does, Rinzak sought to engrave his name in his people's history. Though he found himself to be a failure in the ways of the Zerth, when introduced to it Rinzak found himself a natural Wizard, in particular with the field of Gravity and the manipulation of it. However, in Limbo a world controlled by chaos and what would seem to be nonsensical rules an art which manipulates a law of existence such as gravity is an inexact science at best. In part to ease the burden on his parents who had just had two children, and in part to craft his own method of Graviturgy which could be brought back and shared with his people Rinzak set off to whichever realm he may find himself in.
Additional Note: I have a Master sub and all the content unlocked so I'd be happy to share my books so everyone has them available. Also I have a google doc with some more information on my character I had typed up at one point if you are interested.

Name: Rhogar Myastan Race: Dragonborn (Gold) Class: Paladin (Oath of Ancients) Background: Soldier Backstory: Rhogar's clan are part of an order dedicated to keeping the growing forces of dark at bay. The original community was formed by Dragonborn who had escaped their dragon masters. As such they have always been very secretive and have chosen to live in a secluded forest in the foothills of a mountain far in the north. Rhogar's father was a senior member of the order but he disappeared - he had been seeking to make contact with a human community and nudge them towards the light but he was never heard from again. Rhogar has left his home to find word of his father. His teacher's are concerned that he's leaving the clan too early and that the dark will come for him.
Looks like some double posted which is weird but some also posted stats that weren't rolled. You need to roll on here please using the dice roller. Stats are rolled 4d6 drop the lowest dice; no rerolls. Also any one with dice manipulation posts need to re-roll stats on another post. Apparently edits mess up dice rolls.
I am closing applications and will choose the party by the end of the day EST tomorrow. Thank you!
I've made my selections. Everyone thank you for your submissions. Those not selected this round if we have someone drop out I'll contact you first before reopening recruitment. Happy adventuring!!
