Accepting six more players.. sign up before all the spots are filled!
summoning the dnd gangggFor a while now, i've had this mythology inspired d&d campaign sitting in my google doc drafts.. all these characters.. all this writing... So I thought it'd be fun to do an original dnd thread campaign on Hio! Mythology lovers... D&D lovers.. lovely friends who have no idea what i'm talking about..
welcome welcome! This is a game for all levels, if you have absolutely no idea what dnd is, please join us anyway.. it'll be fun!
What is DnD?
Dungeons and DragonsIt is a widely popular tabletop roleplaying game that first came out in 1974
Players create characters and embark on exciting journeys.. so if you like fantasy roleplays, this one's for you
Of course, I know many of you know this -- perhaps you might not understand all the rolls and the damage hits, etc. .. no worries, it will be explained!Note To Beginners! Dungeons and Dragons [Character Classes]
Perhaps one of the first thing you need to know before you embark on this DnD journey is your character classesEvery character must have a class and race -- and no, this does not mean any sort of social class or ethnicity -- it is a sort of fantasy aspect of the game that gives you cool powers and stat points and such! Please include your choice of character class and race on your sign up form, makes everything a whole lot easier when your stat points are calculated
And once you sign up i'll go into /all/ the detail about your character and abilities that you never asked for via owl, so I left everything a bit vague
Feel free to request one that I have not put on here, we can discuss... there's just so many that I couldn't fit them all (also it's 10:30 pm sob)! And yes, half races are more than okay but pleasplease specify it's wild enough as it is already hehe
Beginners! Hi! Sorry I know this was confusing.. a race is.. essentially your character's being, their genetics. A class is more their powers and their personality
If you're confused, perhaps think of it as your Hio character's special race and abilities, they affect your stats
Please pick one of each (unless you combine races
) Choose wisely, let me know if you have questions! If I were to give a tip, i'd suggest thinking of a character and their backstory before choosing a class

Short Character Backstory:

Have you played DnD before? Why did you decide to join?: Yes I have played before, but I haven't been a player in a campaign for ages and I really really need it back in my life. A mythology inspired campaign sounds so so cool and I love DnD so I figured why not sign up?
Anything you'd like to share? Special requests/comments/concerns?:
This sounds super cool!

Character Race: Halfling
Character Class: Rogue
Short Character Backstory:
Reducio
[Attach a cool picture of a d20 die that you'd totally use all the time if you had one.. humor me sob] (You said short so imma try my best to keep it less than a paragraph.) Left abandoned in a sea-port when he was four, Araeon was found and raised by a street gang, who used him as a way into buildings through small holes and gaps between window-bars. Taught the ways of the criminal he was soon scurrying through the flowing port, pickpocketing and picking locks like he'd been born into the life. The gang had dealings with many pirate crews, ad when he was ten, Araeon signed up to join one, wanting to see the world. Working as a cabin boy for a year, Araeon's theiving skills were soon picked up on, and he became a valued member of the raiding team. Adapting to and learning the ways of piracy, Araeon was taught to fight, as well as the intricacies of thievery on the ocean. He became a valued member of the crew and was promoted to Botswain when he turned 19. Three years later, the ship was attacked by the authorities, though Araeon (along with a few others) managed to escape, dissapearing into the mainland.
Araeon found that after a lie on the sea, normal thievery was a tad boring, and - having heard tales of epic adventurers, turned his sights towards joining a party. (Okay I sorta kinda managed to keep it to a paragraph, I'm very sorry.
