LFPs 5e - Unknown Whom (by Rob2e) 3-4 sessions beginning Sunday, Oct. 29th

UPDATE - GAME IS NOW FULL. THANKS, EVERYONE!

CORRECTION - THIS IS FOR SUNDAY, OCT. 30TH FOR 3-4 SESSIONS

So, I'm looking to run Rob2e's Unknown Whom module. This is a very non-standard 5E module in that everyone starts at level zero and you build your characters to start the game. (You will get to 3rd level by the end of the game). You will roll your characters, so be prepared! No point buy. Old school. You will roll 4d6 for each stat (in order) and drop the lowest die.

If you are up for the challenge, PM me! If someone has a group of 4 already, I'm happy to run them through this. BTW, Rob ran me through this with a group of players a few months ago and I really enjoyed it. That is still the only game I've actually been able to be a player in!

Also, NEW PLAYERS ARE FINE!! I have no problem running new fg players through this. I think both experienced adventurers and new adventurers will have fun so if we have a party of all new adventurers, I'm fine with that, it just may take us a bit longer to get through the module. Game will start next Sunday, October 30th at 6:00 am MDT (which for UTC/GMT 0 is noon), and will run 3-4 sessions.

One more thing. I will be streaming the sessions on twitch and uploading them to youtube, so please only sign up if you are ok with your voice being taped and published. I do this as I want to expose more new players to fantasygrounds and 5e.

See below for more info.

FG License: Ultimate (anyone can play even with the demo)

Game System: D&D 5e

Day of week and time: Sundays, Beginning October 30th (6:00 AM MDT - 10:00 AM MDT); (noon UTC-0 - 4:00 pm UTC-0)

Duration: 3-4 sessions (4 hours/session)

Text or Voice: Mostly voice

Voice software used: TeamSpeak

Number of Players: 4

Character restrictions: You will build your character as part of game session #1. No characters built in advance! We will be using Player's Handbook, Elemental Evil Supplement, and Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide for races. Only races that will be excluded are the Aarakocra and the Human-variant.

Roleplay & Combat mix: I'd say 40/60 (but probably more depends on the group's personality)

Calendar Link: https://www.fantasygrounds.com/calendar/?id=2233

Story: This uniquely styled adventure involves players starting out with little information about the characters they will play. No characters are prepared in advance. This is a nonstandard method of play. Player characters only know their names, ability scores, race, and background. This adventure was created to give the feeling we got as kids just starting out with D&D. It will be great for new players and seasoned vets alike. Let the chaos begin…

About me: I'm still a pretty new DM (less than a year and only a few groups), but learning all the time and know fantasy grounds pretty well. I try to listen to what the players want during the adventure. In my view, I'm doing this for you guys and if you don't like something I'm doing, I'll try to adapt!

I'm a relatively new player, player, played one 5e campaign in person and one on FG, this sounds like an interesting game and I'd love to sign up.

I'd be interested as well. I've never played 5th Ediition, but quite familiar with other versions of D&D. Not sure if I'd need to own rule books or not? Also, I'm a bit familiar with FG and have no problems having my voice recorded.
Thanks!

All you need is the demo license. I'll have everything else and we will create characters during the first session. Glad you're up for it! I just sent you an invite to the game through the calendar. Once you accept you are in! I'll send more info this week.

Hey guys. Somehow I screwed up the calendar. I'll fix it tomorrow but it should be Sunday mornings starting next Sunday 10/30 at 6:00 am MDT. Sorry about that. Still love to have you but understand if you can't since it as posted as Saturday. Will fix in the am.

Ok, I'd like to play. I'm experienced with 5e and fg. this will be fairly early for me, but that won't be a problem. Do you plan on continueing with the group to othr 5e modules afterwards?

Awesome. I'll send an invite from the game calendar, but you are in. I don't know about the future. My schedule is tough and hard for me to commit to long-term, but if the group really gels and we can figure something out, I'm open to it. Glad to have you!
