World of Warcraft 5e Private Duet/Solo PBP

Creating your character

🔹 Character creation details can be discussed and changed! This is YOUR game after all. This is just a basis on what I typically allow. 🔹 I will be using Discord to help walk you through the character creation process, but please don't hesitate to ask if you need any help or have any questions. This game is open to new players, and I am happy to answer any questions and provide guidance. I also allow homebrew (custom content) and third-party content, with the disclaimer that if something is too powerful, we may need to adjust it to maintain fairness between players. I am willing to work with players to help them create the characters they want, including custom races or other special abilities. Here are some additional details about character creation: ✅ We will be using several Homebrews that provide World of Warcraft in 5e. We will discuss more once you sign up. ✅ Level 1 or 3 start. ✅ Free feat at Level 1. ✅ Heroic Array: 18, 17, 16, 15, 13, 11 ✅ Maximum HP ✅ Start with a Magic Item or Two (Within Reason) ✅ Starting Gear ✅ Be thinking about backstory and what kind of race and faction you want to be a part of. Do you want to be a part of the Noble Alliance? The Brutish yet Honor-bound Horde? Make sure to explain to me where you want the story to begin Era Wise (Warcraft 1, 2, 3, WoW Classic, etc.) and what kind of character you want to roleplay.

Preparing for the session

This is an asynchronous play-by-post game played by Discord with the Avrae bot. This means that posts will be made throughout the week; it's to the pace of the group. All playing will be done by text, making things accessible for those who aren't able to use voice. I will update at least daily. You will get to experience the story and the roleplay, while also learning about--or getting more experience with--play-by-post format and Avrae. ✅ Download Discord: https://discord.com/ Once you sign up, message me on Discord. I will link you to the Discord (you can also find it below). From there, we can get you prepared. The game itself will start once everyone is ready (you will not be charged until we begin). =============== PLOT: Expanded - This story takes place on The World of Azeroth, where various races live together and two large factions reign supreme. The Alliance, and The Horde. Most of the Eras involve conflict between these two factions and the races that bind them together. Whether it is The First War between the Humans and Orcs, The Second War with The Horde and Newly Formed Alliance, The Third War with The Alliance, The Horde, and many other fighting the Demonic Burning Legion, or even potential for more adventurous open ended adventures during the beginning of World of Warcraft Classic Era. More details can be explained about each of the eras, as depending on what era you choose to start in, the races and classes you can pick from will be tied to those eras and what is available.

What GM Ben brings to the table

Ben, your GM, provides an incredible experience, with the help of various tools from 10+ years of experience with text roleplay. His games include: 🔹 Working one-on-one with you to weave your character backstory in and make this a unique experience. 🔹 Adding his own twist to the story and accounting for character actions and interactions. This is not a static world, and the echoes of the party's choices will be seen. 🔹 Giving characters boons and magic items and scaling up monsters to make combat engaging and challenging. Monsters will not hold back, but the DM will root for your success. 🔹 Creating NPCs with motivations and personalities, who may help or hinder the player characters. Maintain friendships, rivalries, make enemies or even potentially lovers (with consent). 🔹 Customized heroic rivals that will try to oppose the party at every turn. 🔹 Custom (homebrew) content and systems for Warcraft/WoW from the DM and third-parties. 🔹 Pre-generated characters or concepts, in case you do not wish to create your own.
