One of our players has had to leave due to life commitments affecting their availability, so I'm recruiting for a single spot.

Plot Hook:

You sit in a dreary coffee shop with the constant tic on the clock. You don't bother to look anymore, as what does it matter?

Again and again, like clockwork, a car pulls up, and speeds off again. In a few hours, it'll happen again. And again.

You drink the same coffee that you must've drunk a thousand times by now. There's no escape—this is really it—doomed to stay in the same coffee shop time after time.

But this time, you feel something different. As the vehicle pulls up, you wait—and begin to follow its lead through dirty roads that lead to an abandoned mineshaft. You follow.

Inside are strange alchemical machinations and a mask for breathing. You descend deeper through the mine; it is slick with a pollen-like substance that feels as sharp as glass. You see a pulley that leads deeper down. You descend. The people in the car are there—moving deeper into the mine.

It feels hot down here. Fated, almost.

A Quick Note on the Campaign Structure

The current time-loop storyline featured in the plot hook above is actually coming to a close very soon. A brand new plotline is about to kick off right after, making this the absolute perfect narrative window for a new player and a new character to jump into the party and get invested from day one.

Current party

• Tom - Goblin Sorcerer
• Niko - Goliath Barbarian
• Ladan - Sky-Kin Cleric
• Steve - Dwarf Artificer

The Campaign Overview

Campaign Expectations:

• The campaign is heavily story and roleplay (RP) focused. We will be using D&D Beyond for character sheets and Discord for voice communication, so a stable internet connection and a decent microphone are required.
• Kindness and respect are essential—I will not tolerate bullying, harassment, or discrimination of any kind.
• Once I’ve selected a player, I’ll likely give you a quick call on Discord after adding you, just to make sure your mic setup is working fine and we are on the same page.
• I expect players to act cooperatively. That doesn’t mean your characters can’t disagree or argue—but party cohesion is important, even when tensions are high.
• I use the Rule of Cool at the table—if you want to do something that's awesome and makes sense within the scene (even if it bends the rules a little), run it by me. As long as it’s not completely insane or immersion-breaking, I’m usually happy to accommodate creative play.
• For me to consider your application, mention the phrase "Paranells Law" in the "Other (Optional)" section of the form, this helps me whittle down applications as I tend to get a lot of responses.
• Sessions take place weekly on Thursdays from 18:00 to 22:00 BST. The goal is to keep sessions regular and consistent.

Character Creation

Level & Ruleset:

• Characters start at Level 5.
• You can choose whether you want to make a character using the 2014 or 2024 rulesets.
• Character sheets will be created and played on D&D Beyond.

Starting Feat & Progression:

• Each player receives one free starting feat at Level 1.
• ASI + Feat Rule: When leveling up, whenever you reach a level that grants an Ability Score Improvement, you do not have to choose between stats or a feat. You get both the ASI and a feat.
