Greetings Thelanis RP Enthusiasts

[Mazeratti]

Hello Thelanis!

My friend and I are returning players to DDO.

We are tossing up an idea of doing things a little differently this time round. Having a background in Permadeath and Role-playing, and leisurely dungeon crawling as opposed to rushed zerg fests. We are thinking of starting a guild of a group of RP focused adventurers to run weekly dungeons as a static Role-playing group.

Ran very similar to a Table-top/PnP type experience. It is something I have never got to do and am extremely keen to try it. I love to Role-play and DDO is so well set up for such a deeply immersive game-play we think it could be a lot of fun.

Please register you interest below, we are really only needing 3 extra players at the moment but if there is a huge amount of interest perhaps we can expand our vision a little to accommodate others.

This could take awhile to get truly organised, we are still in planning stages.

No experience is necessary, I will happily guide you teach you.

Primarily it will lean toward Heavy RP

You will need

1. An interesting but not OP character i.e must be believable and conform to in-game abilities and lore.
2. A character sheet
3. A backstory
4. An ability to write legible English with a reasonable level of skill
5. A basic knowledge of game-play is an advantage
6. Eventually VIP status will be required to access all dungeons.
7. The desire to have lots of fun and meet new people.
8. Probably best if you are 18+ given the types of activities that can occur.

Last but not least - GMT +10 AUS/NZ time will be the timezone we play in.

Glad to see the Roleplaying community isn't dead. I hope you find more members, and if I find anyone interested in an RP-heavy guild, I'll definitely send them to this forum

Thank you Zachman, that would be much appreciated.

I just hope the Heavy RP doesnt put people off... it really just means everything is entirely in character.\

I also want to point out my friend and I are not Grammar Natzi's or Heavy Lore focused - the goal is to have good fun with friends, we are very easy going people.

[zachmandude]

I don't think it will, really. I do miss seeing the roleplayers in the various taverns and such, getting ready to go on an adventure, or just having a full roleplaying session.
I was always partial to mixing the roleplaying and the dungeon crawling myself but, I think if you give it some time, you'll find a lot of people that are looking for full roleplaying sessions. And again, if I find anyone who is interested, I will definitely refer them to you

Hello,

I downloaded DDO for this exact reason. I was hoping to find someone running some RP dungeons. I have no experience but i have seen some youtube videos (Role Critical) and I've played a lot of D&D based video games. Let me know if you still have room. I just rolled a Drow Bard.

Thank you!

Hello back and welcome SlickPrince, nice to meet you.

Yes we have room - you are our first enquiry LOL

We are thinking of having a meet-up... maybe this weekend... night-time AUS/NZ time. What Timezone do you play in?

US EST, so it might be tricky. I can make it work on weekends.

Okay yea - we will work it out. Weekends we can all be flexible pretty much.

We have played with US time peeps before.

We can even do some planning here, outside of game time.

Our meeting/starting place setting so far will be the Fight Tavern in the Marketplace - forget its name (I am so rusty LOL)

I have not decided on a character - I have multiple. I may run all and see which gives me the most fun.

To get started you need a character sheet. Do you have one? Do you know what it is or how to make one?

Ask as many questions as you like I am only too happy to teach you the basics. RP is a lot of fun and there is no strict way to RP - just be your character.


Also think about names for the Guild if you like. You can have multiple RP alts in there if you like.

I just bought some D&D books today. When I get into something, i try to go all out. I should be able to make character sheet, the stats should reflect my characters level one, right?

I have not written out his backstory as yet - stay tuned.

Do not worry about stats and stuff - just stick to your story/bio and general information about your character - character development.


Since this is not PnP (Pen & Paper/Tabletop).

The game will take care of the info/stats - however if you like to post that stuff... go for it as it is part of who your character is.

Cool. I got his backstory already worked out.

I wish I could commit, but I'm a full-time mommy, and my play-time revolves around that (plus I'm on CST in USA.)
However, should you find yourself running into my girls, I'd be happy to consider impromptu r/p.
The guild that used to be pretty heavy in Thelanis was The Fellowship of the Golden Night. Maybe some of them can be nudged in your direction- I'll give it a try.
Happy Hunting!

My girls: Tyrynyn, Uamhas, Aurea, Avuna, Oloth, Bhudah... the rest are sleeping.

I do not actually want to roleplay in DDO, but I would be interested in some story line emersion, and a slower exploration and tactics approach.

My characters do usually have a little of a backstory and are designed with a certain amount of flavor in mind.

[Mazeratti]

Thank you everyone for your interest.
This idea stalled for awhile due to computer issues.
I am back on board and in game.

Current Character : Charazan - feel free to add me to your friends list and if/when you see me online say hi.

I am currently just soloing around having returned after a long break (pre-druids/artificer) LOL so there is a lot to relearn and explore.

I quite possibly will create an RP Guild in the future and if that goes well set up some ingame events for outside of questing.

Hope to meet you soon.
Cheers
