A New Beginning

Hey there! I'm looking to set up a Curse of Strahd campaign and I'm in need of a DM to run it! I already have a list of potential players from a reedit post I made, I'm just waiting on a DM before I reach back out to any of them Little bit about me: my name is Psychi (they/them). I'm a goth, queer, disabled TTRPG player who's been playing DnD for just over a decade, and DMing for about a year now. Despite this, I've never been able to play a COS campaign before. It's always been on my list, but I've never had a DM willing to commit to such a long campaign... 😓 Welp, I just moved to portland a bit ago and I'd love to see if anyone was interested in starting a game with me? I'm hoping for a fun, spooky, queer-friendly experience that doesn't shy away from the horror and upsetting nature of the setting I'm flexible on the location, as long as it's in the portland area and easy to get there via public transportation. I'm also flexible about whatever date/time we end up playing because I want to try and find something that fits with everybodies schedules. Pls feel free to reach out if you're interested in DMing for us 😊

We still have an opening. Every other Sunday starting on the 6-9pm Pacific time. We are just starting Eve of Ruin over Discord and Fantasy Grounds. We use 2014 5e rules with Xanathar's and Tasha's guides. I do add in a bit of homebrew to expand and balance the best I can. Our group is 35+ Adults. Welcoming and friendly. We enjoy the combat bits with a bit of problem solving aspects. We have a Ranger, Warlock, and Fighter right now. Trying to recruit a couple more. I've been DM'n for about 2 years now. I have been interested most of my life and play in another group as a player. I'm open to ideas and try and say 'yes' or 'We can try' rather then shutting down ideas as long as they are reasonable. I am more a rules lawyer then Role-playing but I'm trying to be better at the talking bits.

Elaria: Breaking the Chains Elaria is a land of powerful kingdoms, ancient magic, and prosperity built upon slavery. Humans, orcs, beastkin, prisoners, and countless others are bought and sold while those in power grow wealthy from their suffering. Within the slaves social circle classes have been established, the house slaves see themselves as better then those who work the grounds and so on. The party begins as ordinary adventurers with no army, rebellion, or grand destiny. But as they travel across Elaria and witness the cruelty of its kingdoms, they will have opportunities to fight back. You will not start in a inn or town, it will be a suprise Freeing a few slaves can become rescuing a village. A rescued village can become allies. Allies can become soldiers and soldiers can become a rebellion. The players will build that rebellion themselves—recruiting allies, establishing bases, gathering resources, liberating territory, and deciding how far they are willing to go to end slavery. Eventually, Elaria's kings will learn their names. The only question is whether history will remember them as heroes, rebels, or something far more dangerous.
