Dungeons and Dragons 5e Campaign Interest Thread

Post Post #0 (ISO) » Tue Dec 10, 2019 5:52 am

Post by Korina »

So, after getting into some discussions on site, I've found a few people who are interested in trying to start a 5e campaign. I'm willing to DM, I just need to know who's interested in playing. Hence this thread. The basic information about the campaign are as follows:

Spoiler: Campaign Information
  1. Fifth Edition (5e)
  2. Homebrew/Custom World and Campaign.
  3. Will be designed for roughly four to six PCs.
  4. Quest-Based EXP system. You level up after certain quests/story events.
  5. PCs start at Level 3.
  6. Kinda newb-friendly, but not really.
  7. Played on Rolegate or potentially MS directly.


The books we'd be using are as follows. Most of these allow for more character customization, and more foes for me to mess around with. If you do not have the physical copies of these, I have PDFs of them; just ask for them or google it.

Spoiler: Books
  1. PHB
  2. DMG
  3. Monster Manual
  4. Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide
  5. Volo's Guide to Monsters.
  6. Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes.
  7. Monster Manual.
  8. Elemental Evil.
  9. Wayfinder's Guide to Eberron.
  10. Potentially
    Unearthed Arcana - Artificer1
  11. Potentially
    Homebrew2
1 If the majority of people who are going to participate in the campaign say they are fine with Artificer, I'll allow it. Otherwise, I probably won't allow it.
2If there is Homebrew added, it will be very limited in what it is. Additionally, if I do decide to add it in, you will have to run anything homebrew past me before I say yes or no.



People Who Said They Were Interested
  1. Mitillos
  2. Equinox
  3. Creature
  4. gobbledygook
  5. xofelf
  6. mastina
  7. Haschel Cedricson

Do you have a basic idea for how it works or no?

I have too many commitments already, but if any of the new players need help with rules/building a character, feel free to poke me.
Taking a break from the site.

^ This. I'm also available to help out with making characters, or anything that anyone is confused about.

Ooo, I'm interested. How does Rolegate work compared to something like roll20 or the sheets on D&D Beyond? That's all I'm familiar with. I've only sorta started a handful of anything so put me on a very lowend understanding of anything.

Rollgate from my experience is mostly focused around text-based interaction. It gives you more options with how you're going to say things, (like if your character is saying it angrily, happily, etc.), and it allows the campaign to progress if everyone isn't around. The way how I've done that is just by creating a discord group and saying like "Alright guys, if you notice you can do something and you have a moment, feel free to do it," until we've managed to find a time that everyone is around.

Character sheets and stuff are similar to Roll20's ones. You just fill in the information and then you can later edit them if you need it. It's something that I feel is easier demonstrated/learned via experimentation than explaining.

The main thing that would be different on rollgate would be the fact that character sheets could be edited a lot more smoothly, instead of having to rely on me constantly updating the OP. Plus, a few other quality of life things, like foreign languages. If I understand one, but you don't understand it, instead of me having to spoiler it and rely on the honor system, rollgate simply censers it for you, if you don't understand it. For example, if my character understands Elvish, and you don't, and someone says "Hi, how are you?" in it, I'll see the actual message, but you'll see something like "ahd dasuqu fsdnua?"

Also, if everyone is fine with seven people, I'd be willing to start up a campaign.

as long as I can be a paladin I'm in
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
