DM Name: aDM Final Girl (she/her)

GSID: jamais vu

Discord ID: satanicpixiedreamgirl

Timezone: EST/EDT

Availability: Random, due to the nature of IRL. I'll try to be available in the afternoons at my time (17:00 UTC - 0:00 UTC during EST, 16:00 UTC-0:00 UTC during EDT).

Preferred Number of Players: 4-8, though I will try to make whatever number of players work.

Preferred Length of Quest: 1 to 3 hours - Expect dedicated intermissions of 15-20 minutes around the 1.5 hour mark to allow for whatever players (or I) need to do.

Thematic Styles:
Setting Reinforcement - Forgotten Realms has been my primary RP setting for D&D since I started, and there's a lot to love that's unique to it that I want to highlight and introduce people to!
Factional Activities - A character's faction is an important part of their identity. Similarly, a faction's identity is affected by the characters within it. My goal is to have factions and characters affect the world around them and be able to interact, while making it accessible to those who want to be part of those stories.
Intrigue/Politics - I like when characters are allowed to bring up good ideas and change minds. I like when people invest in social skills and want them to get the chance to use it.
Horror - I love spooky stuff.
Morally Grey Purposes & Evil Alignments - What can I say? I love antiheroes, I love villains, I love moral complexity.

Wishes to avoid:
Unnecessary, Lengthy Diversions - My plots are meant to be malleable, and their purpose is to allow players autonomy, so don't be afraid to veer off. Merely, given that everyone's time is limited, I just ask that players respect that everyone made time for our sessions.
Slave Characters - Don't bring enslaved characters into my quests.
'Wacky' Quests - I don't mind being light-hearted or silly at all! I just think right now there's other DMs who are probably more well-suited to this and could execute it better. Maybe when I get a better feel for it, but right now, I'm just focused on trying to learn and work with the community.
Apathy - Please don't just sign up and not have your character say or do anything for the possible reward at the end. The journey through the quest is part of the reward of questing, and I'd like everyone in my quests to be at least a little invested, both in and out of character.

Miscellaneous Notes:
We'll use the usual things for quests: /touchon, /diceprivate, hold after transitions, use Quest chat. I'll do a quick reminder in game before, too.
I'll try to get less-quested players, factions, groups, etc. If you feel like you haven't had attention for your group in a while, feel free to send me a Direct Message, either on the forums or on Discord, and we'll see what we can work out!

I'd love to see more things on the server able to actually be done without DMs. More power to the players' RP allows for less burn-out, more influence in the game world, etc.

It just feels difficult to actually do anything without DM help in character. Taking steps to allow for characters to cultivate things to do in-game will help with that, I feel like.

Lots of love sent out to Edge/DM Szuriel for the Far Realm quest today. Clearly a lot of care was put into it and you did an amazing job of making sure it was well-paced and worked to include everyone. Looking forward to more!

SettingQuestions / Marsember?
May 09, 2016, 01:23 PM
If one wasn't involved with noble politics, would they have come into much contact with this plague? Since it seemed to be widespread, did they ever figure out what it was? What were the symptoms?

I'm really very curious about all of this! Thank you all for answering my questions!

SettingQuestions / Marsember?
May 08, 2016, 05:07 PM
Sorry it's taken so long to post this, but I was made aware by another player that there's some server-specific information about Marsember. Is there any common knowledge that someone who lived in Marsember before taking up their adventuring career should know that I wouldn't? I've tried putting things together from the forum posts, but I'm afraid I get a little jumbled up and I don't know what's available knowledge, things that wouldn't be necessarily 'canon' in lorebooks concerning Cormyr.

Thank you, all!

Off Topic / Favorite underrated anime
Apr 27, 2016, 07:38 AM
Le Chevalier D'eon is probably the only one that comes to mind... It's rather good, and an alternate historical fiction set in France.

I used to be big on anime, but I honestly fell out of practice, although I do like indulging with the occasional Inuyasha.

Unfortunately your best option right now is to simply not play those characters.

If you absolutely must get on, do not equip or unequip any items you're currently wearing, as the code to add/remove properties will fire and potentially strip them.
I think the best thing to do is just not to play them right now. The last time this happened and I hopped on Aunra, equipping and unequipping didn't matter, they were all stripped anyway. I ended up having to pester poor Belladonna to help me replace all of her daggers...

....that's genius.

Trying to level up a Pidgey or a Rattatta in Yellow version to try and even do damage against Brock....

I didn't actually get to post this the other day, but I was very impressed of what I saw of Myv Rodale and Brigur. Keep it up, friends!
