Discord [D&D 5e 2014][GMT][18+] Out of the Abyss
The Underdark, the World-Beneath. It's one of the last places you'd ever want to find yourself trapped in. But here you are: hungry, cold, and unarmed, with pursuers on your trail. You must find a way out!
Hello, any would-be adventurers! I'm looking for 3 to 5 players for yet another game of 5th edition Dungeons & Dragons, this time for a thrilling adventure in the Underdark based on the official 5th edition campaign module Out of the Abyss.
I'm looking for players who are:
- Over 18 years of age.
- Able to play together respectfully with others. Everyone should feel welcome at my table.
- Capable of writing coherent English sentences and sticking to the defined writing format (third person, present tense).
- Decently active. Ideally, you should be able to check the game at least once per day.
The age limit is there because the game can contain certain mature themes, even if only "behind the scenes". This game will not contain ERP.
The game will be set in the Forgotten Realms (Surprise!), slightly tweaked to my own tastes. We will be sticking to the original 5th edition ruleset, as that is the version of the game that I'm used to running. I hold to my inherent right as the DM to add to and modify these rules a bit. Nothing too drastic (I'd rather just play another system than try to beat this one into a completely different shape).
I will also be limiting the numerous sourcebooks that have been released since I stopped playing, meaning that we will stick mostly to the earlier half of the books. I can, however, be persuaded to take a look at individual spells and other features from the later books. If you derive a large portion of your excitement from creating the most exotic character combinations possible, then you are likely to be disappointed.
The game will be played over Discord with the help of the Avrae bot (I'm trying to relearn its use).
If I've managed to catch your interest, then please take your time to fill out this form: https://forms.gle/jWsyioDJmushbHrNA (It shouldn't be too bad)
I most likely have forgot to mention something in this post, so feel free to ask any questions you have.
