[Online][GMT+2][5e][21+] Two experienced players looking for an RP-heavy campaign
Hello there!
We are two people, Filip (24M) and Alex (23F), and we’re looking for a DM and 2-3 more players around the same age or older (let’s say 21+). We’re both from Finland (UTC+3).
Platform: Voice chat via Discord + D&D Beyond. Optionally, we have some experience with Roll20 as well. Theatre of the mind is heavily encouraged (except for combat). We're open to new platforms if needed :)
Availability: Preferably Saturday or Sunday evenings, weekdays are negotiable (Sundays and weekdays on the condition that the sessions don’t end late at night). We're looking for sessions that are about 3-4 hours long. Weekly or biweekly, both are fine.
Experience: We've been playing 5e for 3 years, and have been a part of an ongoing campaign for 2 years now.
Player Descriptions:
Filip: I'm very fascinated by history and mythology, so naturally, I'm very interested in the lore aspect of D&D worlds. I'm a bit of a Swiss-army knife when it comes to picking classes, so I'll gladly fill any role - my previous characters have been mainly negotiators or problem-solvers. I'm keen on exploring different aspects of the game and interacting with NPCs and other players.
Alex: I’m a recent university graduate and have a degree in game design. I’m very interested in all aspects of storytelling, and I love to draw my own D&D characters :D I tend to create characters that are curious and outgoing, and would love to play a charisma-based class for once.
What we look for in fellow players:
- Preferably somewhat experienced with D&D or other TTRPGs
- Interest in teamwork: players who are interested in interacting with other PCs and NPCs, coming up with interesting/fun interactions, etc. + possibly crafting interesting party dynamics
- Situational awareness - as Finns, we can be a little reserved and don’t like to talk over or under people, so the ability to share the spotlight would be an important one
- Please try not to metagame :’)
Gameplay Preferences:
- We’re open to generic fantasy, steampunk, etc.
- Homebrew stories/worlds are heavily encouraged, would love to see your worldbuilding!
- Descriptive narration welcome
- RP-heavy, exploration and combat as secondary elements
- Slow in pace - we're not here to rush to the finish line, we just want to have fun on the journey there
- Involvement in the world through character backstory - hopefully each character would have a sense of purpose within the story
- Room for character development
- The tone of the campaign could be semi-serious with some room for light-heartedness, as we like to joke around a bit sometimes
- Dark themes welcome
We'd be open to testing group compatibility with a one-shot first if it seems like a fitting idea. If you’re interested, you can contact Filip via direct message or through Discord: Feewe#7616
May your world-building document and your character backstories be as lengthy as this unnecessarily detailed LFG post. Thank you for reading :)
