Long-term Campaign Seeks Additional Roleplayer
posted on: 12/7/2004 7:36:50 PM

We're seeking the right player to fill the sixth slot of a serious, long-term, D&D 3.5 campaign that is approaching its 1-year anniversary. We are extremely selective in choosing players; we're looking for someone who's on our wavelength, shares our approach to gaming as a collaborative story, and whose personality will mesh well with our existing group. If we don't find the right person, we won't add anyone.

This is not a strictly PBP campaign. In addition to PBP, we play "live" using the free software program, OpenRPG (www.openrpg.com), every Sunday from 3 to 7pm CST. Between ORPG sessions, we play by post on our forums. There is both a Roleplay board for interaction with other characters and a Reflections board for in-character thoughts, journals, dreams, etc.

A few quick, additional notes:

The campaign is set in the Forgotten Realms, which can be a turnoff to serious RPers who find FR to be "too D&D" (if that makes sense). We have an excellent DM, however, who puts his own spin on places & people and welcomes help from the players in detailing/developing/creating the world. This setting was chosen because of the wealth of material available on it; the DM invests a large amount of time in the campaign, and he didn't want to have to spend all his time world-building.

There are some adult themes. This is a roleplay-heavy game centered around characters who are very human in their motivations and who have turned toward the darker side of existence, to varying degrees. If you're looking to play the knight in shining armor, look elsewhere. By the same token, if you're looking to play a sociopathic, heartless, back-stabbing fiend, this isn't for you, either. Advancement is slow by many standards and is based on participation (including amount of posting) and roleplaying, not monster-slaying. Power gamers need not apply.

If you:

1) like to write;
2) have the time to attend each Sunday session *and* check/post on the forums daily;
3) are reliable, mature, communicative, easy-going, devoted to making a 3-dimensional character, and looking to participate in a collaborative story;

...then take a look at the website for our game, www.somnium.org, paying particular attention to the forums. Then, if you're still interested, email me at webmaster(at)somnium.org and tell me about yourself, why our game appeals to you, and why you'd make a good addition.
