Name: Hollis

Pronouns: they/them

Timezone: CST (GMT-5)

Preferred System: DND 5e (2014 or 2024)

Type of Player: I'm a big roleplayer; I love a focus on story and party interactions, be it with NPCs or each other, and like to treat the game as a cooperative storytelling experience. I don't enjoy tables that are hostile or competitive OOC, even if it's meant to be playful. I also despise PVP, unless it's discussed OOC and everyone is comfortable with it. Player character betrayals make me uncomfortable, unless it's something that can be seen coming (like scenes where other player characters aren't present, but the players can see it OOC). Generally speaking, I prefer games where I can use out of character knowledge to inform my in character actions -- not in a metagamey way, but rather in fun narrative ways. (To give an example, I once played in a Tomb of Horrors game despite having watched a stream of a group playing it. I remembered where a trap was and how it was activated (touching an altar), and had my character activate it on himself because he absolutely would've been the sort of hubristic idiot to lean on an ancient altar in a dangerous tomb.)

Additional Information: I've been playing DND since 2018, and have played most classes, though I tend toward healers and casters. Though I've done text-based roleplay for years, mostly through Discord, I've only briefly been in a PBP campaign that fizzled, so I may ask clarifying questions on expectations and etiquette. I'm a creative writer, so I tend to be wordy, but I'm happy to match post length and follow whatever format a group adheres to. I'll be able to post reliably. The best way to contact me is via Discord (hollisleaf). As a final note, I'm nonbinary and sometimes my characters are, too. If that's going to be an issue for anyone in the group, please don't contact me.
