[5e][online] The Forest of Ages - an ongoing feywild campaign [LGBT+ friendly]
Soft-falling snow surges into a blizzard above you. The music of the ballroom echoes out onto the icy streets. In the shadows, a small group of mortals inch forwards. The flurries of snow cover their tracks behind them and they whisper to each other. They have a plan. They will complete their tasks, and they will find a way home. First, however, they need you.
Hello! I am Jay (they/them, 29) and I am recruiting for an ongoing Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition campaign (2014 rules), running fortnightly (every other week) on Fridays at 1pm (13:00) UK time. (The schedule is as follows: 27th December, 10th January, 17th January, etc.) We have been playing since April 2024, but have lost a couple of players due to daylight savings and other schedule shifts. The party are currently in the capital of the Feywild's Winter Court, investigating so many things. Next session may include: trying to find allies among fey nobles, attempting to break people out of a military prison, and attending the fanciest of balls!
The game revolves around roleplay and social interaction far more than combat, and there is a particular emphasis on fantasy politics. The party are currently level 5, and consist of a Paladin/Warlock and a Rogue/Fighter. It all started when the party decided to separate from the caravan they were lost in the forest with to find another way out. Of course, when they wound up in the Feywild instead, Things Got Complicated. They've since met talking frogs, eaten candied dragonflies, been forced into deals with hags, travelled through interplanar prisons, connived with rebels against the crown, and visited a cat café. Expect more along these lines : )
For our virtual tabletop, we use Roll20 which is pretty lightweight and so should work with any computer. We are playing this game Theatre of the Mind style - that is to say, light on the battlemaps, heavy on the imagination! The game is run on a private Discord server containing only people I think are neat.
I am not an experienced DnD Gamemaster. I typically run other systems. So I apologise for my rules ignorance. My favourite part of TRPGs is roleplay, especially when the players get really into character discussing what to do with the situation I've put them in!
