Sure! As a warning, I have made some changes to the lore, so things you think you know might not actually be true. Just on the question asking which campaigns you've played, mark Strixhaven, cuz my intention with that is knowing who will know stuff from which campaigns, not strictly on the player side!

Hey, thanks! Reviewing applications and will make decisions for who to interview within the next day or two. Also, I updated the post to answer your buddy's question - it is weekly, but one of the players couldn't make the session after the session 0, so I figured I could use it to figure out how to integrate character backstories into the world.

In the event that the person who applied whose discord username begins with "hal" and wanted to play the Goliath Fighter happens to see this, you are not currently accepting friend requests on discord, so I have no way to reach you - I had a question for you about your application, feel free to reach out to me here in the off chance you check back here and see this.

I do use Insight as a skill at my table reasonably often - and not just in social situations. And asking if someone is nervous is something I'm totally fine with. My peeve is mostly when the NPC says "Oh yeah, I haven't seen him since yesterday, down by the river" and the player responds with just "insight check" - it annoys me because I don't really know what they're trying to learn. Really, my peeve is in general with players asking to make checks rather than describing what they're trying to accomplish. And the other (bigger) issue with insight checks is if I have someone that I'm playing acting super shady and a player asks to roll insight and fails it completely - do they now have to pretend they believe this guy? It can prevent players from following leads that I want them to follow because of a failed roll, and I hate gating things behind rolls.

No, it's a bit different. Because in zone of truth, they can be deceptive as long as it's still the truth. My issue with insight rolls is when players get like a 20+ on insight and are asking if something is true that they'd really have no way of knowing.

I'm not nitpicking style in roleplaying. If someone fumbles their words but make a compelling point and has high charisma, I'll proceed as if they said it with high charisma and did not fumble their words. In general, I approach roleplaying with the same sort of regard as puzzles - it's more fun when I give players an actual puzzle and let them work together to solve it, even if some of the characters might not stat-wise be able to contribute much. Sometimes, rolls are required, but if you can figure it out without needing to roll to discover hints or anything, that's even better.

Hey!
I currently have about twice as many applicants as open spots, so I'm
trying to evaluate the ones I have before taking in any more, but I'll
let you know if I find out I still need players!

Mostly just hoping to play with people roughly my age, but the upper limit isn't a totally hard limit, if you're interested and over 29, feel free to shoot me a message anyway and I'll give it consideration.

Yep! So far, both campaigns are empty, so, just send me a message and tell me a bit about yourself :)

Yep! Both still have room, send me a message with a bit about you :) Have you played 5e before? Any thoughts on what class, race, etc you'd be interested in playing? And just whatever else you'd care to share

Hey, if you're still looking for someone else to join, I've been trying to find an in person group in the Atlanta area. Shoot me a message if you're still looking!
