Draconis

Welcome adventurers to a land of wonder and awe. At first glance this land seems normal, but at closer glance, things are not what they appear. The world is full of things, new and old alike. From airships to guns to simple swords, the world has it all.

The campaign takes place in Dracoris, a land brimming with divine influence and the scars of ancient conflicts. Vast forests, glowing crystal caverns, volcanic wastelands, and shadowy marshes are scattered across the realm, each tied to the influence of a god. Mortals live amidst remnants of divine power, shaping their lives around faith, magic, and the ever-present threat of imbalance.

Character Creation:
24d6 drop the lowest 6 arrange in sets of 3 or standard array or point buy.

Races available in the forums (almost all races are available).

Any official Class is acceptable.

Nothing from DND One or 6 or 5.5, whatever they are calling it.

Starting level 3. Base equipment +3d6 gold only.

I should note that while guns and airships are in this world, both are extremely rare. Most people go their whole lives without seeing either.

@The_DM settings sound fun and character creation attractive, but can you tell us what the story is about.
What are PCs going to try to achieve: save the world (or at least a region) from the threat of imbalance; earn money doing simple quests for simple people; just trying to survive and live another day?

Honestly, it could end up being just about anything. I have some world events happening and you’ll be thrown into a faction war right off the bat, but I like to be pretty open ended and give a variety of options for players.

What about making a rogue state? Best part of a faction war is selling arms to both sides and killing the weakened victor.

If that’s where your adventure takes you.

Sounds interesting. how do i join in?

I’m not sure entirely. I’m new. Maybe if you click game details at the top?

The_DM can invite players by entering their name (copy/paste makes this easy) in the 'Invite Players:' section of the Game details page.


Or a player can Apply to jion the game with the small 'Apply to game' link on the Game details page (this link is bigger if the game is not linked to a recruitment thread like this).

Here is a link to game
@The_DM let us know if you want players to apply and you will approve them or you would like to be sending invites players you select. Most of the DMs here on gamersplane prefer to send invites based on applications. Because you don't want conflicting PCs to be in the same team.

For example I would like to play a druid (loxodon) who loves and is concerned with retaining "Vast forests, glowing crystal caverns, volcanic wastelands, and shadowy marshes" and find faction wars unacceptable evil. It looks to me that my PC and PC chosen by Jomsviking wouldn't get along in the same team.

You can just apply. We can work out details in game. I'm fine with a little bit of internal conflict, as long as others are too.

I just want to reinforce interest on this game. I've applied and realized that despite laconic game advert DM provide a rather detailed settings info, including the list of deities and factions and they are strongly interrelated. Eight factions differ in their alignments and cover most faction ideas from a typical 5e. I believe less is more: having only 8 not 88 factions will allow players to understand each faction and it's place int he story. Looking forward to explore the world and it's politics.

Anyone who want to join just open game link and click the small "Apply to game" link

Before you get married to this, let me send you an invite so you can look at the lore and stuff.

Ok, I have invites sent for @sneepy, @MadCrazyAngel, and @AugustineIsHere

Is it too late to toss my hat in the ring? Because it sounds interesting.

If I do not have all of the invites accepted in 48 hours, you're up.

Much obliged.

Interested! This sounds fun. What kind of frequency were you thinking? I'm new to pbp and still figuring things out, but I know 5e quite well.

I currently have 2 invites pending and 1 on board if one falls through, but you can be next up if you’re still interested.

Posting 1/day minimum is ideal (weekends excluded for me) but at least once every 48 hours.

Awesome. Keep me posted.

Posting interest as well, simply if and as space allows.
Cheers. :)
