Recruiting for a D&D 3.5e Campaign

[Altrunchen]

LOOKING FOR 1 NEW PLAYER(S)!​

Hey there, name's Alt. Just a DM who plays CoC a fair bit.

I was wondering if anyone in this forum wanted to do a D&D campaign that would meet every week, so I decided to post a thread here about it. Given the nature of this forum, you can surmise that the campaign could contain adult themes and situations. But they wouldn't necessarily be mandatory nor would they be the entire focus of the campaign. My intent is to provide a space for the players to occupy and to make their own story in, however perverted, violent, or otherwise it may or may not be. I'm not in it to tell the players what to do or to get off on controlling people, that's just not me. I'm in it for the story. If you are too, then maybe you should give this a shot.

Basic Information:​

Game: Dungeons & Dragons

Version: 3.5e with Homebrew elements

Campaign Motif: Sandbox / Story RP

Max Players: 6

Current Players: 5

• Dreaming Ardent (Cleric)
  
• DaBomb (Paladin)
  
• Shebi (Rogue)
  
• Theannoyingnoob (Fighter) (Sorceress)
  
• JCC (Fighter)
• Scratchtastic (Homebrew Mage)
  
• Tentacle Corruption (Bard)
  
• LewdPopcorn (Barbarian) (Wizard) (Fighter) (Bard)

Content Description:

• Sexual Content: Party defined limitations AND DM defined limitations
• Violence: Party defined limitations OR DM defined limitations

Session Times: Every Friday at 11:59pm (Eastern Time) to 3am Every Saturday at 7:30 pm (Eastern Time)

Software: Maptools b91, Skype & Discord

Gameplay:

• Sessions: Live
• Chat: Text only

Character Creation:​

Starting Level: 1 7
Alignments: any non-evil
Ability Rolls: Done in Maptool with DM present.
Rulebooks: A loose DM preference for content to remain within:

• Player's Handbook 1
• Monster Manual 1
  
• Dungeon Master's Guide 1
  

Homebrew Content: If a player has a particular idea that they want to incorporate into their character, then they should PM me here on the forum.

DM's Note: I'm more interested in a "character idea" rather than a "character build", so if a character is highly researched and optimized but requires material from other sourcebooks then I'm less likely to be alright with it. Conversely, if a character is more of the player's own innovation and creation then I am more likely to be okay with it, provided it can be balanced.

Characterization Questions:
These are various questions and fields that I require players to fill out when making their character. I allow characters to be powerful, as long as their powers enrich their character and do not define their character. If you are joining the campaign then answering these fields and providing me with your entries is mandatory.

Alright cool, do you think you'd be able to make it to the sessions consistently?

 

[DaBomb]

Yeah, most definitely. I may fall asleep before some sessions end, but i'll be there 99% of the time.

 

[Altrunchen]

That's great. Most of the other people who joined left later on either because of their schedule changing or various other reasons. It's my hope to form a consistent and strong group of not only players but also characters.

 

[Shebi]

I'd like to join. On most evenings and weekends, at least with an iPhone and the unreliable Skype app. If the campaign's fun, I'll stick with it as long as it lasts.

Welcome!

Well as long you're able to come to meetings consistently (as long as it's fun and so on) then we shouldn't have a problem. I do run campaigns using Maptool which is a program that works on Macs or PCs but I don't think it runs on mobile devices. We'd need ya to log into maptools to move your token around and such too. So as long as you have access to a computer, you should be fine.

Hoping there's still room. It's late here, but I figured I'd get my foot in the door tonight and catch up tomorrow.

Looks great! Go ahead and send me a PM when you want to roll up the stats for your character.

 

[TheAnnoyingNoob]

I should be able to make the meetings. I'll get a sheet up in this post tonight/tomorrow.

Alright then, just so long as you wait to roll up the ability rolls with me.

Welcome!

Well as long you're able to come to meetings consistently (as long as it's fun and so on) then we shouldn't have a problem. I do run campaigns using Maptool which is a program that works on Macs or PCs but I don't think it runs on mobile devices. We'd need ya to log into maptools to move your token around and such too. So as long as you have access to a computer, you should be fine.

I usually have my laptop, but if I'm on the road, it's mobile only. Unlimited data is my friend. Tomorrow looks like an easy day, so I can start on a character sheet in the evening.

I got your message, but first I need to make sure that you'll be able to attend regularly. So tell me, will you be able to make it like 90% of the time at least?

 

[JakeCWolf]

Room for one more? I warn you in advance I'm not new to RPing but I'm a total novice at D&D and Pathfinder.

 

[Altrunchen]

That's no problem. My main concern is whether or not you will be able to make it to sessions at least 90% of the time. They are pretty late at night and are regular so this isn't something that most people will be able to do.

 

[Pushtomorrow]

You fill up or still looking for another? And yes I could make these times easily.

I would have been able too, but sadly that doesn't matter anymore.

Looks like no dude.

I'm sorry but we are currently full.

I'm sorry dude, but the timing was bad and a decision had to be made. I'm sorry you got the short end of the stick on this one.

Probably still needs some tweaking, but it's good enough for now.

You had me until text only.........

The campaign has also been full for over a week. It's good practice to read the contents of a thread before complaining. And then don't complain anyway, it adds nothing.

No need to get snippy with me man. Geez some people just don't know how to go "Sorry for your trouble" so I can be like "It's k It's like whateves" and then we can go on with our lives.
