Princess_Salami's Profile

Preferred Name and Pronouns: Roxanne (or Salami, most online friends call me that), She/Her

Experience: Started in my first campaign a year ago, and it was also Curse of Strahd. However, the DM ended up not loving the setting and rushing us through (none of us opposed) to bring our PCs to Exandria for a Homebrew Campaign. We played weekly, starting mid-February, up until early October. We then took a break and played a short 4-shot campaign ran by a different DM while our main DM prepped for her campaign. Other than that, I've been playing in a 8-9 session mini-campaign that's coming to a close soon, in a Homebrew world, ran by a DM I met in a Youtuber's discord. 

How did you find D&D?: When I was a kid (way back in the late 90's, early 2000's) there was D&D in my city's "Sports and Activities" community booklet that I always tried to join, but they never had room for me (either no room for players or, as I hate to think about, no room for a girl). MUCH later on, in late 2021, I started binging Critical Role, and discovered an online friend of mine was also a fan, and her and other friends were all playing D&D. So that's how I joined my 1st campaign. Lately, I've been binging Dimension20, and I watched the 3 Roll20 "Chaos D&D", where the recurring themes are Aabria as DM, and Brennan as Citizen Doctor Abraham Mehermblur. 

What are you looking for in a campaign?: While the 1st campaign I played in was also Strahd, I'm looking for a different experience this time, since I don't want to play the same Death Cleric. I tend to... over-tune my characters, and I like to optimize their damage, but I want to try and focus a lot more on RP, because I feel like I have a really good handle on combat, and I want to find a group to enjoy RP-ing with. Since I've played Curse already, I am fully willing to make a PC with more of a follower personality rather than a leader, because I REALLY don't want to accidentally Meta-game. 
Also, I don't think I could ever play in a "play-by-post" way...
