What we’re about
Greetings fellow dungeon delvers!
I'm a DM looking for a bunch of enthusiastic, RP lovin' adventurers to embark on a new D&D 5e journey together... right here in Saffron Walden!
We'll focus on light-hearted roleplay with plenty of opportunities to shape the story as we go.
My DM style:
I include plenty of character development and RP (but try ensure the spotlight is shared). Give me 5 pages of PC backstory and it will come up in game. Long-lost brother? Showing up. Dead lover? Definitely showing up. Running feud with another family? Guess who's giving your next quest?
Newbies absolutely welcome:
If you're new to 5e, but dying to try out that new accent you've been secretly working on when nobody else is around, then this is the group for you!
Behaviour and table etiquette:
I like to keep things pretty relaxed, but it’s important to me that everyone feels comfortable at the table. So, before we dive in, here are a few ground rules we’ll set before session 0:
- DM ruling is final, we keep the game moving and pause for the occasional rule check.
- No premature dice rolls: Player describes their character actions, DM calls for appropriate dice rolls.
- Patience and kindness: Be willing to help others at the table.
- No PvP (i.e. no rolling against one another).
- Phones and other digital devices: Let's keep it about the game. Device use is discouraged unless it's for character sheets, the odd rule check. Urgent or important calls should be taken away from the table.
- Disruptive topics: Be respectful. No need to discuss politics, sex, religion etc. DM vitos any uncomfortable topics of conversation.
- No Min/Maxing, obsessive number-crunching or obnoxious system abuse.
Time & Location:
The exact time and location are still to be determined, but it'll be somewhere local in Saffron Walden.
Age:
Adults only, please.
