My character idea is a simple hobgoblin evocation wizard. He is inspired by the school of devastation that magically inclined hobgoblin soldiers are forced into to be hobgoblin devastators. He showed a lot of promise and was very talented, but he had one fatal flaw: he hated being ordered around and fought constantly with his superiors. He ran away, hoping to make a way where he could be his own boss. Adventuring seemed a good application for his talents, and as long as his companions don't order him around like they are superior to him he is actually good in groups.

Why do I want to play in this game? I'm very interested to see how the mecha mechanics work and generally love sci-fi despite playing a lot of D&D 5e. This seems like a chance to see them both at the same time.

This looks crazy and awesome. I think a Paladin of some sort might be in order... I want to smite with a huge mecha sword!

I am thinking a Hafling rogue pilot.

Yes, interested. Back online after a break, looking to get back.
Ranger, hunter, favored enemy Aberrations. That might be metagame if we don’t know about the eldritch horror angle from jump, so can do something else if it makes for better tie-in.
Cheers!

I was thinking a half-orc monk specializing with the scimitar, inspired a bit by Power Rangers. He is following his monk school's tradition to wander the world and grow in understanding of the element he is most attuned with. I'm interested in the unique mechanics available and have been getting into Gundam. What a nice fit to combine D&D and mechas!

Concept: Aasimar aberrant mind sorcerer.
Backstory: Adrift in the Astral Sea on a crippled ship, his prayers for help were answered by an unknown yet obviously powerful entity. Once rescued and safely returned to the material plane, he manifested increasingly potent arcane talents, presumably sourced from the same entity. Now he feels that entity is returning, and it may not be as benevolent as he thought. He'll need to find help fast.
Let Me In: I'm a faithful Lovecraft cultist who loves sci-fantasy and giant mechs (especially Robotech). I wanna unload a Macross missile massacre at Cthulhu. Will there be a Wave Motion Cannon? ^_^

I love fantasy sc-fi mashup games, a love that goes all the way back to Expedition to the Barrier Peaks. I also generally like mecha. So this game really calls to me.

My concept is a gnome battlesmith artificer. He's a clockwork tinkerer and finding the Automidons will be like a dream come true. He's possibly more interested in learning the secrets of how they work than he is in using them to save the world. Of course, saving the world is important too.
