Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [PF1e] [LGBTQ+] [PST] Looking for 4-5 players for an adventure and lore-heavy game

10 Upvotes

Hey! I'm Audrey, 21, She/They, as a disclaimer I love being elaborate when it comes to my RPGs and this post fits this trend. Another disclaimer is I'm attempting to get back into RPGs after a little less than a year break.

This game will take place every Friday at 11am PST. It will be Pathfinder 1st Edition, no previous rpg or pathfinder experience needed.

My experience:

I've been playing TTRPGs for over 8 years now, almost exclusively running them. I could very likely count the number of sessions I've been a player in on both hands. I'm not complaining though, I love GMing and I love storytelling.

I've played around with a lot of systems, from things like Mork Borg to Call of Cthulhu to Cyberpunk Red and the slightest bit of GURPS. As much as I love the narrative aspect of RPGs, I still heavily enjoy the actual game component. I've found a home in PF1e over the past couple of years mainly because the granularity of it.

I am massively into writing, worldbuilding, and game design. I am even working on my own system with a public playtest out right now. I have publishing software I use to create in-game handouts and lore documents and such. I give these out fairly often either as digital props or setting guides. My goal is to never give homework, but I find the players who read them are also the players who enjoy my games more.

About Me:

I'm Audrey, 21, She/They, west-coast based, trans, queer, and a number of other descriptive labels, but fuck all that. I'm into baseball, lacrosse/hockey, literature, hip hop, jazz, coffee, and other things I hope that I can't think of off the top of my head.

I am also genuinely a little too silly and devilish at times, so forgive me for that, and know I am truly never trying to be an asshole.

About the setting:

The game will be set within Idor, a land made for adventure. I have probably 100+ lore documents and descriptions written about the continent that I've been running in for 5 years. Too much to fit here, but it has a lot of the standard fantasy settings just with some added depth or twists.

There's a lot of typical fantasy fare, but Orcs can theoretically live forever and the further north you go the less reality starts to matter.

About the game:

Basic themes of the campaign include Powerlessness and Beauty. I'm big on juxtaposition. It will be a travel-heavy game with an emphasis on wandering and exploration. Working title is "Let the Sun Talk". Happy to give more details when we talk.

A modified E6 ruleset will be used along with Elephant in the Room for feat taxes.

What I’d hope from you:

  • You are at least 18
  • You have a general interest in lore and understanding more
  • You are invested in the game, but still treat it like a game
  • You have an adventurer’s spirit
  • You are a kind, welcoming person

If you like what you’ve read and want to reach out, please send me a chat here. I’d like to talk for a minute then maybe move into a voice call when we’re both free!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][EST][5e][2014] Mythwalkers. A Folk Punk Campaign for 3rd to 11th level characters (Tuesday Nights, 6:00 PM to 10 PM) [Session One is Next Tuesday, 11/03]

• Upvotes

(Repost, our Meet and Greet is tomorrow and we need a few more players to fill out our ranks)

Campaign Trailer: https://youtu.be/3FxC7bNMz0M?is=YIbAIvUkKx5KXX_6

Campaign Documentation: https://docs.google.com/document/d/12A1MVjiuPGo5ad0AOnJOnMdb0yRBpqXVJC2Rjn3RanY/edit?usp=drivesdk

“The Manic God plied the realm in its creation yearning for something beyond its coiled form. An immovable mass of creativity and boundless design. Yet the two halves could not decide upon which creation was superior- for the two halves made upon their own design. One, that of the mundane- found logic and reason superior, he manifested every nook and cranny with a design that seemed to take upon the mathematics and sciences of the universe in its hold. This was the realm of man.

And the other- the other formed a realm of boundless creativity and chaos- where reality could be split by the hairs of those who demand it. And this realm was the realm of the Spark.

Yet what happens when two halves disagree on what makes the whole? Simple: they split.

And what happens when two split suddenly and violently combine? Unfortunately, that is what has become of this realm- and so what will become of this realm again.”

The Continent of Kroot and Her High Concepts

Myth Walker is a high fantasy adventure bound in the realm of the mundane. Sure, technology has overtaken magic, now a forgotten and feared art, once the two realms soon collide, all that is magical will soon invade the realm. You are heroes of this world- bound by ancient magics, larger than life figures that exist in an elevated form from the mundane.

Myth Walker is also a “Frontier Punk” setting. Technology rules the day, simple steam engines are prototyped in the large cities as guns have often replaced the bow and arrow in militia and hunting in the country. There we found ourselves, far from the toils of the big city where factories reach their infancy.

Myth Walker is a game of Myth. The “Myths” of the setting will soon become reality. Inspired by both American Folk-lore and Arthurian legend, cryptids will soon walk the land, and ancient magics are infused in the world in places few people dare look.

Myth Walker is a game about justice. The “High Theme” that I hope to explore in the setting that we are making is the concept of justice. In these unprecedented times where Myth walks the land, Myth Walkers are the torrid defenders before civilized states respond. Ancient treaties give you access to the noble courts and people look towards you to defend them from the unknown. Yet, as you explore the world, I hope not to paint a picture that is black and white: perhaps these Myth’s are not invaders, but victims of these convergence. As Myth Walker’s, you must decide who wins, and who loses, or perhaps a third way that the order has not yet considered. 

Myth Walker is about telling a story. One thing I like about American Folk Heroes is their position as storytellers and soothsayers. I like the idea that as Myth Walkers, the knowledge you gain from the “Invigoration” allows you to share stories and create ones. You will essentially play the folk heroes yourselves, spinning tales and making decisions that will be remembered by future generations.

Please message me if interested. Thank you.

Session Zero has already been completed. The party consist of the following:

A Dwarf Paladin of Grief (Homebrew sub-class) that had recently lost purpose during a battle that slayed his band of warrior brothers. After receiving a mysterious bell without a tongue, he could hear it responding in the distance and now follows the sound.

A (Unknown Race) Cleric of (Unknown subclass), a gaudy individual, she seeks the Mythwalker in the region due to his uncanny ability to hunt "Myths and Bumpkins" that truly haunt her as-well. She has found him- including the dark secret that he brought from the Bastionlands.

A human warlock of a dragon lich (Homebrew sub-class), she has the embodiment of the dark lord manifesting inside of her, asking her to do vile things. Arriving at a celebration of a local god, she felt peace until her master struck, forcing her to retreat into the sounds and voices of a "cooing voice" as the practitioners looked in fear towards her.

A "Human" (Rat-Man) Artificer, at 6'10, the manifestation of a veil portal research project, the normal rat has grown to immense size and intellect of a giant human. After devouring the flesh of an oracle he found deep in the sewers, him and his rat pack have seen prophecy of the end times- and perhaps the beginning of a rat-topia that would bring his people from the shadows. He now follows the fleeting visions of the veil portal- perhaps a sign from devouring the flesh of the sooth-sayer?

Player(s) Needed by GM (5e 2024, Online) Players Wanted for Ongoing Multiverse Spanning Mystery Sandbox Campaign

5 Upvotes

Howdy! I'm looking for a few players to join our ongoing 5.5e homebrew Spelljammer/Planescape game.

Sessions take place **Tuesdays at 7:30 pm Mountain Standard Time**.

This is a multiverse-spanning campaign where you will explore the far-flung corners of the planes to investigate the mysteries behind a cosmos in crisis. The places you will visit are not only limited to Sigil and the Outerlands, but also the Inner Planes, the Feywild/Shadowfell, Wildspace, and the Far Realm. In other words, the multiverse is your sandbox! And given the homebrew and sandbox nature of this game, you as players will have a lot of input on the story (e.g., where to go, what leads to chase, which faction ally with). Expect lots of detective work, exploring uncharted territories, and perhaps even philosophical debates!

Player(s) Needed by GM [5E, 2014] [Online] [Tuesdays, 6PM PST] [LGBTQ+] Come to Alubia! Keep a shattering world intact, or die trying.

7 Upvotes

In the world of Alubia, everything is falling apart. In the orange sands of Karitavia, a schism in the church is soon to pit brother against brother. In the revolution ravaged jungles of Kanor, a devastating plot has spiraled out of control of even it's masters. In Oakley, the mage hunting parties grow bolder by the day, and anti-mage sentiment is spiking. And far across the seas, the prying eyes of ancient evils seek to divide the continent up for themselves.
All of this begs the question- what will you save, right before this world changes forever?

Good day, everyone! I'm but a humble player in the campaign we call Alubia, looking for another fellow player or two after some scheduling issues. It's a high stakes, high fantasy, and high level campaign focused around tough choices, a constant stream of new problems, and far reaching consequences. In this campaign, you deal with not only the fate of people's lives but the fate of nations and cultures as a whole, and often even bringing about a better end comes with unpleasant consequences.
As an example, this group has saved multiple countries, created two gods(both accidentally), and assisted in two revolutions.

A few requirements:
- 18+ individuals only
- You must be knowledgeable enough with 5e you could pilot, or learn to pilot, a high level character. This doesn't mean you have needed to play in a high level game before(I didn't before this game!), but you should be experienced enough in 5e that you could reasonably learn it.
- LGBTQ+ friendly. We love our queer players. Our group diversity is a strength, and we want a open minded group.
-Be willing to commit to showing up. Life happens, and there's nothing wrong with that- we're not expecting a 100% attendance rate. But we should all try to make it to sessions very often, and communicate when we can't!
- Be friendly :) We're all here to have a good time!

This is a long running campaign, and players are at high level- there's a lot that's already happened, but if you're okay with everything so far, we'd love to learn more about you!

Apply here!

If you have any questions for me as well, please feel free to ask! I look forward to reading your response!

Group Needed by Player [Offline] [Online: if no Offline] [D&D 5e 2014/2024] [Maryland] [48M] [Flexible Schedule] Returning player looking for a free campaign

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m hoping to find a free D&D campaign to join as a player. I played with a group for about six to eight months a few years ago, and I’d love to get back into it. I still consider myself fairly new, so I’d especially appreciate a group that’s happy to help someone get back up to speed. As far as I know, I haven’t played using the 2024 rules—but I suppose I never thought to ask!
A little about me:
• Availability: Weekdays work best, though I may also be available on some weekends. I’m based in Anne Arundel County, Maryland, and can travel about 30 minutes, give or take 15. I’m happy to compare schedules.
• Online tools: I haven’t used a virtual tabletop (VTT) before, but I’m comfortable with technology and happy to learn whichever platform the group uses.
• Group atmosphere: I’m hoping to find a welcoming, patient group. I’m friendly and inclusive, and would be glad to join an LGBTQ+ welcoming group.

Feel free to message me if your group has an opening or if you’re putting together a new campaign!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Other][Online] Exodus TTRPG, Sci-Fi D20 campaign, Sundays, 9am US Pacific, LF 1 player for party of 5

3 Upvotes

Looking for a 5th Traveler to join the crew of the Persephone and explore Lidon and beyond! This D20 tabletop sci-fi RPG is based on the upcoming video game, Exodus, heralded by many to be the spiritual successor to the Mass Effect series. This Sunday is our 2nd session, so you'll begin at Level 2.

Fleeing a dying Earth, your ancestors found refuge in the vast Centauri Cluster. They settled on Lidon, a moon in the Malakbel Star System. It’s the only home you’ve ever known. And now, it’s dying. The Rot, a mysterious phenomenon that degrades Celestial technology, consumes everything. To save your world, you must confront the Celestials and steal their technology that could give your people a fighting chance. Time is running out.

Current Crew Classes: - Prodigy (sci-fi mage) - Daemon (silicate symbiote fighter) - Ranger (just like a DnD ranger, complete with a fully sentient raven companion) - Cataphract (mech pilot)

We're going for a different class for each crew member, so I'll be working with you to create a custom class distinct from the ones above. Exodus RPG is an official product built directly from DnD 5.5e. If you're familiar with 5.5e, the mechanics of Exodus are virtually the same.

If interested, please fill out this questionnaire, then DM me.

We play using the Roll20 virtual tabletop, which you can preview in this 15-minute excerpt of the 3.5-hr 1st session.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][Wed 8pm EST] Sandbox, story-Focused Mercenary Campaign [5e 2014][LGBTQ friendly]

0 Upvotes

To start off with, this campaign is focused on allowing you the player too grow and develop your character, to play out the parts you may have never been able to with other characters.

You will play as a group of mercenaries taking contracts in a world recovering from an event that shattered civilization and changed centuries of social order. while taking a sandbox approach where your choices, relationships, ambitions and backstories help shape the direction of the story.

Roleplay heavy with combat. - The setting is well developed and unique, focused on bringing new powers, animals, societies and cultures never seen before for you to explore, while the setting also allows Parallels to the kinds of stories and systems a Society with similar limitations to our own might have.

The campaign is realistic in the sense that the world follows its own logic and rules and doesn't break them. while also being believable and familiar to reality in many aspects. With that said, to bring a lot of that and to allow you to explore something brand new, the magic in the world story wise is not DND magic, but something more hidden and rare. So all magical mechanics are just explained in different, more technological ways. the only big restriction is limiting you to one of the worlds unique Species(races)

Player(s) Needed by GM Repost: [Offline][5e 2014][EST] GM Looking for 2 players, southern Fairfield County, CT, every other Friday night

3 Upvotes

Game: D&D 5e 2014
Experience: Beginner is fine, though minimum age is 25+
Location/Timezone: EST, and playing in southern Fairfield County, CT, though if you're in Westchester County near the CT border that's good, too. I host the games and I'm in Greenwich (last CT town before Port Chester in Westchester). 

Game play: offline, face-to-face only, no online component unless someone is sick or traveling in which case we'll hook up a camera so they can see the table, but no Roll20 or similar.

Game style: Long-time homebrew campaign. Lots of lore, so each PC will build a good backstory that blends into the campaign world. Then we'll be doing story arcs (both group and individual). Tend to try for 50-50 RP and combat with an ongoing plot. 

Other: We had a current game of five people, but two just dropped. Everyone is over 30, most over 40, me over 50. Accepting and friendly to all creeds, genders, and orientations. The only thing we don't do is NSFW/sex stuff; just good old-fashioned D&D on a table with minis, dice, and whatever snack food people bring.  Any questions, ping me here, and if it looks good, we can move it to Discord and meet the group.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][Dead in Thay][D&D 2014 5e With Homebrew][5pm Tuesdays EST] DM looking for 1-2 more players

5 Upvotes

Edit: We are an 18+ group only!

Hey everyone, I am DM Pinkalink. I am looking to recruit 1-2 more players for my upcoming mini campaign expected to last about 10-20+ sessions choice dependent. This will include homebrew for both players and me that will be talked about during session zero. I've made some changes to the base module in an effort to make it more challenging while keeping it fun for everyone.

Hook:

You are a group of adventurers from a small city named Godric's Hollow that is under constant attack from warring tribes of orcs and other monsters. A magical wall has protected your home for a millennia but the magic has been failing for centuries. The wall is crumpling under the relentless attacks. You need a powerful relic that is said to be contained deep in a place called the Doom Vault.

Homebrew and other rules for character creation:

Level 8 Start. No rolling for stats (point buy or standard array) but ASIs plus Feats Allowed starting at level 4. Begin with Feat.

Magic items: 1 common, 1 uncommon, 1 rare. Attunement takes 1 minute or if you want to attune in combat, it takes an action or bonus action taking a level of exhaustion when attuning this way.

Duel Concentration: You can concentrate on more than one spell at a time but doing so incurs a level of exhaustion for every spell you concentrate on above one. You gain this exhaustion after 1d10 minutes. The rules are the same. If you lose concentration, you lose concentration on all spells.

Devil’s Bargain: You can bargain with the DM for more power at the cost of something important to your character. This is usually in the form of an ability, spell slots, etc. A character can only perform a Devil’s Bargain once per campaign. The terms and conditions will be set during the negotiation.

Journal Entries: Keeping a log IRL of your journey through the dungeon will reward you with DM inspiration.

I may add additional homebrew during session zero or we may decide that some of these homebrew rules are unfun. We will be working on character creation during session zero but you can brain storm some ideas before then.

If you are interested, please reply below!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5e 2024][Sunday][8:30pm EST][LGBTQ+ Friendly] Long Term Group in Search of One More!

17 Upvotes

Hey there! My name is Vivian and me and my group are currently looking for a new player to join our ongoing campaign! We've had a bit of a rough patch lately with life getting in the way, but we're hoping to get back on track by adding someone new to our group!

About the Game

The game is a long running homebrew campaign in a world I've already run two successful campaigns in. The focus is on High Fantasy and good triumphing over evil at the end of the day. We're a pretty RP heavy group, but I'm also known to throw in decently challenging combats, so it's a healthy mix. The party is currently level 11, but I've designed the campaign to run into higher tiers of play, so there's still plenty of game left. We use the 5.5 ruleset though I am happy to incorporate Legacy material.

The party is currently consisting of: A Gloom Stalker Ranger/Assassin Rogue, Achfey Warlock, Moon Druid

The Hook: The Party is working to defeat a powerful necromancer from taking over the world. However, this necromancer has firmly established himself within the nobility of the campaign's main area of focus: The Republic of Zidain. Kicking down his door, while tempting, and has been proposed at least twice, is not an option. The Party is working on gathering allies and undermining the necromancer's grander ambitions. Right now they're in a the middle of the jungle looking for a long lost artifact that supposedly rests in an ancient temple.

About the Group

We're a pro LGBTQ+ group and we're looking for people who want to have a friendly and safe place to enjoy the hobby together. We will not be tolerating bigotry.

While I've been DMing for close to 11 years now, our current group has been together since 2022 and we're all friends at this point. We're looking forward to meeting some new people and sharing some adventures together and we hope you join us.

If you're interested in joining please fill out the following application in the comments bellow and I'll message you for an interview.

Player(s) Needed by GM DM Looking for Players - [Online][5E 2024][SUNDAYS | Est-7:30pm]

9 Upvotes

Hi! I’m Noel! I’ve been DMing for a couple of years now, and I’m looking to broaden my horizons and tell some different kinds of stories together.

My DMing style is roughly 60% roleplay / 40% combat. I really enjoy collaboration, creative problem-solving, and players who like contributing to the world and story rather than just following a set path.

🎲 What I’m Looking For

I’m looking for semi-experienced, inclusive players to join a Bi-weekly online campaign SUNDAY 7:30est.

New players are absolutely welcome too, as long as you have a basic understanding of TTRPGs and are willing to learn!

I’m currently running D&D 5.5e, but I’m also interested in systems that are less complex than D&D. The system is ultimately just a tool — the goal is to create a great story together.

🌎 The Goal

I want to tell vastly different stories across worlds and IPs we already know and love, while still putting our own spin on them.

Some of the campaigns I’m currently planning include:

  • ⚙️ Fullmetal Alchemist
  • 🗡️ The Legend of Zelda
  • ❤️ Kingdom Hearts
  • 🐲 How to Train Your Dragon
  • 🦸 Justice League
  • 💾 TRON
  • 🍄 The Last of Us

🐉 Dragon Ball Z will be the next campaign, planning to start next month!

Each campaign would have its own tone, setting, and style, so there should hopefully be something for everyone!

If any of this sounds interesting to you, leave a comment or DM me! Tell me a little about yourself, what kind of games you enjoy, and what campaign caught your eye. I’d love to chat and see if we’d be a good fit!

[I HAVE 2 slots available! So please follow the directions above so we can expedite the process.]

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][Other][Flexible] 3 options for a HORROR ONESHOT (possibly a 2shot or 3shot)

1 Upvotes

[Aiming for this Friday starting at 7pm EST but I can be flexible. I'll work with you!]
SO... Every year around Halloween, I like to run a horror oneshot. I've been learning about new horror RPG systems and I want to run one of these! I have several HORROR options I want to pitch to you.

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME, YOUR GAMEMASTER:

I've gamed for 11 years and GMd for 10 of those years. I'm a role-player who loves spinning interesting motivations for my characters. I'm a storyteller with a vivid imagination who absolutely relishes the epic cinematic moments that these improvised stories create. I love taking your ideas and working them into the narrative! Epic character moments and descriptive immersion are my bread and better. I love to have fun! And I love to tell a cool story!

1

CHILDISH THINGS 

—immersive horror

Keywords: PCs are children: ages 4-9, monsters, small secluded town, high immersion, nightmare-like, run away the terrors of the night to find your missing parents and classmates in your small secluded town. What is seen the shadows is easily misunderstood in the mind of a child…

Roleplay: HIGH

Combat: LOW

Technology: MODERN DAY (but before cell phones)

Player buy-in: For this game, you will need to be able to act, react, and talk like little kids. You will need to have some form of family in your backstory that you care about - and want to find when they go missing. Because this is horror, you won’t be able to FIGHT the monsters; rather you’ll need to RUN. This game won’t work unless you can react to things as a small CHILD, i.e. with FEAR. We only play after dark, preferably with your lights out, with headphones, and clutching your childhood blanket or stuffed animal. It should be an extremely immersive horror experience.

**note: Before the first session, I ask you to list out your ACTUAL fears to me (clowns, spiders, being kidnapped, etc) so that I do not include them in the game. In addition, I ask all my players to read and sign a waiver, telling you (among other things) that if it’s getting too intense, you must TELL me right away so that everyone has a safe and enjoyable time.

2

MOBIUS

—paranormal exploration

Keywords: modern-day teenagers, trapped on an abandoned island, paranormal, time loops, strange and terrifying secrets hidden, investigation, time travel

Roleplay: LOW (You don't need to be an actor/roleplayer to enjoy this game)

Combat: MEDIUM

Technology: MODERN DAY (but before cell phones)

Player buy-in: You don’t need to be a good roleplayer to enjoy this mysterious game. There won’t be much combat, as anything truly dangerous you’ll probably have to run from. You WILL need to be curious, investigative. You’ll also need to be driven to escape and survive, because there won’t be an opportunity for you to create another character if you die; you’ll just have to take over one of the 3-4 NPC teenagers who came with you. In other words, be careful! 

**Helpful hint: The last time I ran this game, everyone signing up initially wanted to be “the quiet nerd type”…I would encourage you to go for something else if you think you can. :) 

3

TEN CANDLES

—tragic horror

Keywords: modern-day teenagers, trapped on an abandoned island, paranormal, time loops, strange and terrifying secrets hidden, investigation, time travel

Roleplay: MEDIUM

Combat/Lethality: MEDIUM

Technology: ANY (Our setting can potentially any era from real-world history)

Player buy-in: 10 days ago, the sun went out. No one understands why or what happened. But then... that's when They started to appear. You can't kill Them. You can't understand Them. The only thing they fear... is light. But the electric grid (or village bonfire or whatever light source you have) has been mostly wiped out... and so has the rest of humanity. This is specifically a "tragic horror" narrative - there is no way to "win." This is a story of the last few people left alive, and their final struggles before ALL of them die at the very end.

This is a powerful narrative-driven system where we really try to tell a compelling narrative together. This system is intended to be played in-person in a dark room with actual candles that are purposely extinguished as the game progresses... so I'm honestly not sure if this sort of style can be run online. Still... if there is sufficient interest, I'm down to see what can happen!

WHAT SYSTEM WOULD WE USE? 

To be honest, I’m not entirely sure. I would prefer to assemble my players first. Then we can decide the system together. 

I’ve had great success in my decade of GMing running a heavily simplified system called The Bare Bones System, but I am open to running any of the following: 

- Dread
- Ten Candles 
- Kids on Bikes 
- Everyone is John
- The Bare Bones System

Several of these systems imply that we might have a scenario not covered in my 3 ideas above. That is ok with me! :)

YOU READ THIS FAR? Great! Can't wait to meet you! Leave an application below! :)

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [WoD] [UK] New player looking for a group

0 Upvotes

Howdy hey!

I’m a new player looking to find a game. I prefer playing 5th edition because I actually have the books. I’m pretty into the lore of VTM, so I know a little more than the basics. I really wanna play a fledgling Malkavian art student, who is just having the worst time; he is my blorbo.

This will be my first VTM game ever, but I’ve played D&D for almost ten years.

Unless you live in Wales (around Mid Glamorgan) I assume we will be playing over Discord, or other VTT’s, which I’m fine with.

DM me if interested!

Group Needed by Player [Online] [5e 2014] [Flexible] [US CST] Looking for a Spelljammer game

0 Upvotes

Hi I'm looking for a Spelljammer game to scratch and itch ive been having. Official campaign, Unofficial homebrew campaign, even Starfinder 2e, doesn't particularly matter to me, just anything similar. I'm available almost every day except friday saturday and sunday, and I can do almost any time except afternoons on Tuesdays. Otherwise im almost free whenever although I prefer afternoon or evening games. Anyone with a similar timezone would be preferred but again depending on the time I can be somewhat flexible. I'd also like to play a specific character that I have in mind that might need some homebrew to work but if it cant and I like the concept I'm still willing to play and fit in with the party roll. Otherwise, thank you for reading and feel free to message me or comment
