Pitch:

"Abandoned and alone a great structure breaks the skyline of the mountain-pass Dur-Umûr. A former nexus of trade and the seat of of a great dwarven settlement the 'sky-fortress' was known in general for its thrifty inhabitants but especially for its master who affectionately was called 'the great dwarven architect'.

Something happened 40 years ago, however. The castle quickly fell to disarray and became an open wound for adventures and local monsters alike. Strangely, though, none of the adventurers return and rumours of the old stronghold has spread. Rumours that the very fabric of the old dwarven stone is somehow... alive.

Few brave parties still dares to challenge this ancient complex, though. You are such a party. Some have come for wisdom, others to hone their skills and again some to claim the fabled treasures of the mountain for themselves.

Welcome to "The Mad Dwarven Architect"."

Details:

Okay. so I'm ready.

I've worked pretty extensively on a dungeon these last few weeks and now it's finally up for inspections. A few brave souls have dared peak inside and thanks to playing in a few campaigns myself I now feel secure enough to show off my baby.

The plan is to lead different groups into this monster and establish a long term campaign with a closely knit-together party or parties. These doesn't necessary have to agree on combat/rp - to my knowledge a party of both kind of players can work out great. I would prefer a mix of new players and one old fox to advice me on the rules. If not we will make do.

A bit about style: I don't like rule lawyers, texting and 24/7 combat. However... Last night I spend 5 hours texting out a combat and checking rules and I had a blast! So I don't know anymore. Maybe I learned. Maybe not.

I wing things. I make up worlds on the fly. If you like a DM that worships the rules. I'm not it. If you like one that let you roll (not succeed) for any crazy stunt. I am. If you want to correct me in the rules, I'm happy to oblige. If you want to correct my correction - I'm not (or expect something unexpected to suddenly happen). What I'm saying is not that I'm gonna impose any style on the players: I'm saying you decide what you're going to do.

Anyway. I'm new, and the most fun I've had so far was teaching others what I had just learned. Most of all: I just wanna have fun.




Introducing!

I am interested in joining. I would be looking at your Thursday game. I am looking at being a fighter build I have had in mind for a bit. For myself, I have been playing 5e and FG for about 8 months, so I know my way around both fairly well.

Thanks for playing guys.

As I told you next game is officially the 6th of august, but I -may be- able to make it back in time for next saturday. Let's get our initiates in the calendar and make them post their char's (yes, xlm-files) so we are ready in a week just in case.

Damn that was a fine battle.

Hey guys. No game today (30/7) - I found out yesterday that the festival I'm at last's until Sunday... and being trapped in farm-land I could only get to a PC now.

I really look forward to continue your campaign - alas only next saturday (6/8)

Please let me know what time would suit you earlier than set game-time (1 or 2 hours before 11 am PST).

Greetings,

I'm a player from Luxembourg, Europe (CEST). I play DnD 5E since early 2015 in RL (3.5 and 4e too)
I've fallen in love with the Minotaur race from Unearthed Arcana.
I'd be happy if the DM allows it in his campaign. I'm genuinely talking IN character and keep the OOT to a minimum, talk in 3rd person
to describe the actions of my character if needed, so I would enjoy a group of people that are immersive as well.

As for Alignment I mostly play Neutral or Chaotic Neutral for background purposes (goes in frenzy when provoked etc).
I work 9-5 free every weekend.
If you need me to provide more information, I'll happily answer.

You know somehow i can see my Rogue/Monk Hill Dwarf Tiergras hopping onto your solders and riding you like a mobile artillery turret. If he used crossbows that is. hmmm, i guess instead you can use the spell "midget missile" (in other words pick me up and throw me at the enemies) The best ranged spell of all.

Rizzit: I live in Lux last year. It is a wonderful country I wish i would have been able to stay forever. :)


I sent a message to Mori, I will not be able to make next week's game unless we reschedule it for another day or much later/earlier time on Saturday.

It's always fun popping a 1 use magic item, charging in overconfidently, then thanking yourself out with a critical fail. that was a really great fail there.

Well if Argo's defense, asfar as he knows. dwarves have been actively trying to get him killed since he step his first foot in those ruins.

In Agro's defense the Goliath wanted to monkey stomp all the dwarfs but the fighter.

Hi, I was just wondering if you might possibly need another player? :)

Mori
September 28th, 2016, 22:12
Need is loaded word :) We happily accept players as NPC's for a one-shot and see if they fit well into the group.

If you want to play this Saturday you are most welcome. Just send me your wishes (if any) and I'll write you in the plot.


We start at 8 AM PST, btw. You can join anytime you want.
