[Closed] The Prentice - silly DnD 5e vignette lvl1

Be sure to read and follow the guidelines for our forums.

ClosedDungeons & Dragons 5thPublic1 / dayAdam


Their signs were everywhere. Earn GpGpGp!!! No XP necessary!!!! Be your own questgiver!!!! What the signs lacked in information, they made up for in exclamation.

The Waterdhavian Bogg franchise (Slop Street) of Acquisitions Incorporated are hiring!!!

Although their lawyermancers made it quite clear that their offer wasn't technically employment (which would mean healing potion benefits, support from humanoid resources, and pay), and the ideal candidate should be happy to be paid in exposure and AMAZING!!! portfolio opportunities.

This is a lighthearted and silly game played for laughs. You'll be trainees, interns, apprentices, temps so far down the corporate ladder that you'd need a ladder to grab the first rung. Powergamers and heroes need not apply.

The vignette will be adapted from the start of the AI sourcebook. It's a vignette - a short game - there will be no opportunity for promotion or career progression. However, there will be opportunities for rapid hinsizing, and post-corporeal challenges, a.k.a. vis-à-vis TPK.

Try and lean into corporate and workplace tropes:
The overly enthusiastic trainee.
The sulky teenager whose mom forced them to get a job.
The ambitious go-getter who's all about thinking outside the box and actioning win-win scenarios whilst leveraging their, y'know, lack of talent.

To apply, don't submit a CV just post an animated gif or meme for your character below.

Okay. That's three.

The personhell department has one more vacancy, so if you have a vacant character then apply today.

This is Mike the Warlock. He uses his powers to make it look like he is working. His favourite things are getting praise for work he didn't do and taking short rests.

No introduction was necessary - we've all worked with Mike.

...and that's four. Let's skive.

This is Gob, he’s a perennial slacker with a penchant for showmanship who is typically only interested in get rich quick schemes, or magic, ideally a combination of both.
