[Online][5e][free][Sat. 5-8pm EST] One spot open in semi-new Arcana Punk Homebrew campaign
Hi there! Due to scheduling issues, one spot has recently opened up in my current campaign!
About the campaign.
- Games run Saturdays from 5-8pm EST. If 2/5 people can't make it, I usually end up running a one shot, so we can still play without having multiple people miss out on story progression.
- We have been playing since April, so this is still a pretty fresh party made up from people who did not initially know each other - so great timing to bring a new addition to the table!
- Soon to be level 5.
- Right now, we are a party of four and it is the fifth player spot that I am looking to fill again. We use discord for voice, Roll20 as our VTT and dndbeyond with beyond20 for character sheets.
- Our current party constellation is: Human / Bladesinging Wizard, Elf / Lunar Sorcery Sorcerer, Human / Scout Rogue and Elf / Order of the Lycan Blood Hunter.
About the setting.
- Until three generations ago, the area where the campaign is currently set was a sovereign kingdom. That was until a war with the neighboring empire broke out. As the result, the place where we are set as well as many neighboring kingdoms were conquered and became part of the empire.
- The reason why the empire had such an easy time taking over is called magicite, a crystalline blue substance that can be used as an arcane power source for just about everything - including war machinery. Under the new reign, the country was plunged into an era of industrial revolution.
- Magicite, while powerful, is also very fragile. It reacts with spells and other magical effects in unforeseen ways. Power outages and misfiring spells were common when magicite was first widely introduced. Therefore, magic has been highly restricted for the past two generations.
- Now, the new emperor completely outlawed magic. The only exceptions are the few mages working for the state, mostly clerics and wizards, who spent years gaining the needed license. For everyone else, casting any form of magic is a punishable offense.
- By now, magicite is just about everywhere. It powers desks lamps and street lights just as well as railway trains and airships, and even keeps giant flying cities in the air. The world is still far from hightech. Anything more high tech than flintlock pistols, air ships, and radios is still multiple generations of technical advencements away.
- Quick Recap: The campaign started with the party getting arrested for casting magic, their prison carrier air ship crashing in the middle of the desert, and them finding their way back to the city. As of right now, they are still exploring a city in the desert.
- For vibes, think older Final Fantasy, Legend of Korra, and Treasure Planet.
About the dm.
- Hello there! My name is Dawn, I'm 27 years old and have been playing dnd for 6 years now, dming off and on for 2. I tend to steer more towards one shots, so this campaign has been my first time dming a long term campaign - and it is the most fun I have had playing dnd in a while.
- I love exploration in dnd. Not as in weeklong travel down a road where I roll for random encounters every other day or so. As in exploring abandoned houses. Investigating crime scenes. Exploring ancient ruins. Solving puzzles. Of course, there's also rp and combat, but exploration will always be so close to my heart.
- I love character driven and focused storylines. I love open ended backstories, mysterious backstories, backstories with NPCs - and players who let me run free with all of that to bring it back up in the game later on!
- I have pro accounts on both dnd beyond and roll20, so I got you covered on content sharing for character creation options as well as dynamic lighting and all the other fun stuff.
Application.
- I ask that all applications be made through this google form. I will then reach out to the chosen player via dm. Please be aware that depending on the volume of applications, I might not be able to message everyone back.
- You are also free to dm me for any questions you might have!
