D&D Beyond

“Roleplay Heavy” games place the focus on the story, the characters, and the world they live within, and tend to lean hard into the various roleplaying elements of the game. These games will frequently find the party talking with NPCs, exploring the personal elements of their backstories, or even having emotional moments around the camp fire.

“Rule of Cool” emphasizes creative story beats over sticking to a system’s rules as written. Players have the ability to push the limits of the rules or even break core rule mechanics at times if the Game Master thinks it is interesting, fun, or cool enough.

I've played D&D off and on for 10 years, mostly experienced with 5e.

I don't often min/max, I prefer to let it evolve according to the character I'm playing. I enjoy playing characters that are a little weird and eccentric.
