Variant of Wild Beyond the Witchlight

About Us Real-life matters There is no payment required. We are LGBTQ+ friendly and welcoming. Looking for someone over 18 as adult language is used. This is a fun game where players jump in and out of character, play off of each other and by the end of the session we aim for everyone to have a good time. If you are hard-core RP this is probably not the game for you; similarly, if you just want anarchy or a complete homebrew open world for you to main character, you should also look elsewhere. We are casual players and a (self-described) relaxed DM running custom or tailored modules that blend together for an overarching custom plot. This is an established group that had a member drop to IRL issues and we are looking to refill the roster. Most of the membership knows each other and this group has run ~9 years with constant weekly sessions with minimal player drop/swap. Everyone is now 30+ years old (though it is hard to tell sometimes). The hope for any player joining us is that they will continue to be part of our playing group for as long as they choose to participate. We play on Roll20 but use a private discord for voice communications, campaign tracking, memes, etc. Video is not required or used by anyone else at this point. Game time is Friday @ 6:30pm EDT/EST weekly but there’s usually a few in discord ahead of time. Sessions run with a quorum of 3 players. In-game matters As obvious in the listing, we are running a variation of the Wild Beyond the Witchlight module (with its own tweaks including a level 13 start). The campaign begins next Friday (08/28/26). Leveling is milestone based meaning when the party progresses through the storyline, they gain levels. New characters are always equal leveled to the party and come in with equivalent starting gear. Characters are made using the PHB +1 model; meaning you can use anything in the PHB and 1 other official source book for your character building (No UA). Some other minor character creations tweaks such as a background trait related to the larger plot that will be disclosed to those joining us. Backstory may have to be collaborated on a bit to work into the larger plot but I am more than willing to accommodate. Every character is a member of an existing in-world guild. The Party The current party consists of: a Fighter, Warlock, Cleric, Monk and Druid that walk into a bar; they are the joke. The DM Him/He/His I have played TTRPGs for over 2 decades and maintain a Pro level Roll20 account. In RL, I am married and work as a career firefighter. I am from the Northeast US and Liberal would be an adjective used to describe me and my views. An example of a hard RP limit for me is that I am not comfortable with RPing any sexual violence. I am more than willing to help newer players and take a very laid-back attitude towards things in general. Application Process If you are still reading, excellent! If you skipped to here and didn’t read the above, you will probably fit in great with the party but please read the above first (I used the word quorum and everything!). Please respond telling us about yourself in whatever detail you feel comfortable sharing. How long have you played TTRPGs? D&D 5E? Have you ever DMed? Have you played or read the module before? Are there hard limits on what makes you comfortable RPing? What pronouns do you use for yourself? Are there important answers you have to questions not asked? Tell me! If you want to private message me or speak in a non-public forum that works too, it will not affect your chances to get in. Are you an evil warlock looking to supplement your patron’s diet of souls, the nature loving druid seeking to spread peaceful coexistence, or maybe a DBZ character? Whatever it is, please include your character concept in that same separate post/DM as above. Include Race, Class, Subclass, etc. and general idea for the character. Next phase would be a 1 on 1 discord meeting to go over some things (session 0ish) to ensure that everyone is okay with the situation.
