Can you save the abbey before winter descends? Learn to play D&D in a play by post setting that happens at your pace and on your own schedule. This game is billed weekly, but play happens throughout the week via text on my discord server. -Learn to play - High fantasy setting - High RP game play. You will be in a world with many loveable (and hate-able) NPC's that you will want to interact with. - Combat streamlined for the PBP setting. Theater of the mind, with maps and images for visuals.
Game style
Theater of the Mind
“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.

Gameplay details
This is a play-by-post game played asynchronously throughout the week on my discord server, you will be charged weekly. I post multiple times a day 6 days a week (I take Mondays off of game updates). I encourage players to check once daily, but pressure is not placed for rapid responses. I run a rules-lite system to encourage role play and streamline combat for the PBP format. That being said, what your characters say and do will have consequences. I make efforts to weave in back stories, and encourage players to share the spotlight. I aim for immersive game-play in a cooperative environment. I do not allow PVP, evil characters, and expect players to respect each other's boundaries. I have safety tools in place on my discord server. At any time if you are uncomfortable in game or out, feel free to stop play and we will adjust accordingly. I send out safety surveys to new players, and at the start of any new game. Once in the discord server you will be assigned a role, and join the game specific channels. We will discuss character creation as a group and go over options. I have links and guides to help with this. Plus when in doubt - just ask.
