LF1M for homebrew version of CoS

Hello my name is Fae. I've been playing dnd since 2015 and I'm an active DM for 8 years now. We have been playing as a group of five, one DM and four players. But unfortunately one of the players is stepping away and we wish to find someone to join us. We play bi-weekly on Saturday from 15:00 till about 20:00 CET Currently we are playing a heavy homebrewed version of CoS and just finished the House of Sorrows (death house) and the PC's just leveled up to level 4. My campaigns are always roleplay heavy with at least 1 combat per session. We play online using DnDBeyond and Roll20 and Discord for VC and keeping track of everything that happens in the campaign. I am a DM who uses a soundboard, imagery and storytelling to sketch the world we are in. I am very player orientated and do not mind bending the rules for your enjoyment. Over the years I have learned how to keep things balanced without sacrificing the fun of the players. I am also always happy to create something unique and custom for your character. Be it magic item, an event in the campaign, or PC specific lore inplementation. So don't be afraid to ask I am also very beginner friendly and welcome players of any and all expertise level Things I have zero tolerance for: - Harassment: zero tolerance for racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, or targeted personal insults out of character. - Boundary violations: disregarding established safety boundaries. - Sexual violence: complete ban on depicting, describing, or forcing sexual assault, both in active narrative and character backgrounds. - Unapproved PvP: attacking other party members, stealing from teammates, or casting harmful spells on allies without explicit, out of character consent from all involved parties. - Cheating: modifying character sheets retroactively, or intentionally mistracking resources. (if you wish to change something, just ask) - Tonal sabotage: Bringing joke characters, meme builds, or disruptive behavior into a designated grimdark/horror campaign. (joking among players, or as PC's during the campaign is completely fine and welcome) - Targeted DM hostility: Arguing aggressively against rules interpretations during the session or actively trying to "win" against the DM rather than engaging with the narrative challenges. (come to me after the session, I am very welcoming to feedback) Some of these rules only need to be broken once to get yourself a ban. So please be a respectable person, we are all here just so have some fun and share a laugh while building an epic world together. So what are we looking for: - Someone who loves roleplay, world and character development, and collaborative storytelling. - Someone who respects fellow players' time and commits to the schedule (this doesn't count for emergencies. we are understanding for situations you didn't choose) - Someone who is respectful of others, mindful of table boundaries and manners, and open to communication. - Someone who is excited to collaborate on their backstory and actively engage with the world's secrets. Not a hard requirement: - Preferably 18+, but we can make exceptions for mature teens. - Preferably a woman to balance out the table dynamic. One of our players would appreciate a second female presence in the group, though everyone is welcome to apply. If this sounds like the right fit for you, and you are ready to step into the mists and help us shape this world, shoot me a DM with a bit about yourself.
