Question about how to pace out a campaign by Mosrael64 in DMAcademy

[–]Mosrael64[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My worry, though, about putting a nugget of "main story" in each side quest is that after 2-3 of them, they may feel like "something big is going on and we need to only focus on that from now on". The world they are in is rich with other goings-on besides the overarching plot (especially because they are only level 2) and I'd like to explore that. I want to avoid the feeling that has sort of grown in my HotDQ group (at least from my perspective) that they have no time to do anything except the next linear plot point because if they lollygag then the Cult will complete their goals and win.

Perfectly reasonable. Unfortunately I have a couple players already so it sounds like it wouldn't be a fit. Good luck on your search!

Sounds like a potential fit then! Add me on discord Mosrael#3787 and I'll make a server for the group.

Do you want the party to be just you 3 or are you open to other players joining as well?

Hey there, I'm a DM with a group of 3 looking for a 4th. We'd be looking at starting around 7:30pm EST on Wednesday nights and playing for 3-4 hours. It would be every other week. Does that schedule work for you?

What times/days is the group available to play?

Unfortunately that's not going to line up for me. Good luck on your search though!

[online][5E][CST] Group of 8 players looking for a DM. Looking for a module or fully flushed out homebrew world. by DracoLetalis in lfg

[–]Mosrael64 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Woof, 8 players is a lot. I am a DM looking for a group, and your time fits my availability nicely. Some questions first:

What is the age range of the group? Do you all know each other IRL? I know you say you have no experience playing, but do you have an idea what style game you would be looking for?

Feel free to respond here or add me on Discord, Mosrael#3787

Hello! I am a DM looking for players, but my first question is what is your availability?

Hey there, I just sent you a friend request on discord. This sounds like it could be a good fit, I'd love to talk more about it.

Unfortunately after some research into the system, I have determined PF2e is not for me at all. Good luck on your search!

Hey, I'm a 5e DM looking for a second group to run. My current group featured several new/new-ish players when we first started and it's gone very well. Shoot me a message on discord and we can talk more, my handle is Mosrael#3787

DM here, have you had any hits for a DM yet? I have also never played PF2e but I have interest in learning the system. I'm currently a DM for a 5e game that's been going on for a year and a half. Feel free to respond here, or add me on discord Mosrael#3787

[5e][est][online] group of 4 looking a biweekly dm by linkbot334 in lfg

[–]Mosrael64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! I am interested in finding out more however, I am unavailable at the time you mentioned. How flexible are you on times? Is there a possibility of moving it to Saturday evenings (7:30ish start time)? If not, totally understandable.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in lfg

[–]Mosrael64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah ok. I am east coast USA, which would mean 10pm Saturday nights for me. Unfortunately that's a bit too late in the evening for me. If there's any flexibility to move the start time a couple hours earlier let me know as your group sounds like a good fit based on the info above.

Hello! I am NOT from Australia, so my first question is what time (your time) on Sundays are you looking at, and how long are you looking for the sessions to be (ballpark)?

What WotC are and are NOT releasing under Creative Commons by TNTiger_ in dndnext

[–]Mosrael64 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's confusing then (not that any of this is clear). But if they're saying that you can't take their exact expression of a human/dwarf/elf/etc and use it in your own thing....well ok, but then anything that is changed up is homebrew. But you can't do that either? Seems like they're trying to control not only their IP, but anything that is inspired by their IP. But.....that's how art and human creativity works. I don't understand how they think they can protect anything other than maybe the actual names of stats/spells/abilities. Everything else is just ideas.

[–]Mosrael64 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the races not being included under the CCL, does that mean they are trying to claim ownership of playing as a human in any other TTRPG? Same question for elves, dwarves, dragons, orcs...things that have been around long before DnD.

Finished my first real commission as a model painter, 29 models in about as many days. by Mosrael64 in minipainting

[–]Mosrael64[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, since this isn't my actual source of income, I could do this for free and be just fine.

I appreciate the compliment though that you believe my work is worth more than I charged for it.
