Also, I was thinking that maybe what has bound the group together in recent history is protecting the same shipment of goods Hammer's character, Dok, came down with. I, at least, did imagine that for Ewyn and Dok... that Ewyn has travelled between Dok's homeland and where the campaign is taking place.

Just a thought.

For the last day+ each time I tried to get on the site it wouldn't load.  So a bit slow to respond.

The warlock looks good - I have never run a hexblade so I will have to read a bit about that to be sure, but beyond that it looks right.

Coming in with the caravan is one option - it would work for some or all.  

Please send me a new invite to the campaign as I created an acct on D&D Beyond. Thanks.

Keeper of Dragons – High Elf Thief Assassin - Hornet

Tann – Warforged Fighter - Steel

Nimu – Elven Wizard - Soledad

Hammer – Hill Dwarf Cleric – Dok

Mischief – ½ elf Rogue - Silver

Ayrn – Human Warlock (Hexblade)  - Ewyn Donnelly

Dragon-Sould92 – Elvish Eldritch Knight - Thaoran

I believe this what the party looks like.  Ayrn's and Dragon-Soul's characters aren't in D&D Beyond yet, but they or I will get them there fairly soon.  I also need to do a minor update on Hammer's character - probably within the next hour or so.  But the party is set and ready to go.  I am going to start working on the first post, well technically I guess, the second.  It will get all of you to Botkinburg to discover the trouble that has been affecting the town.  I'll probably make use of the caravan Dok is in to get most (or all, I have to check) of you there as it seems easiest.  This first part is just to get you into the town and start moving.  I'll tend to move through this quickly otherwise back and forth discussion could take weeks.  But feel free to ask whatever questions you want - and you can always PM me with a question for an NPC if you want an answer back to work into your posts.  I will also move this sort of discussion to the Q&A thread and we will be leaving this recruitment thread behind.

This game recently lost a couple of our player, one of them hopefully only temporarily.  I'm looking for one or two more people to join in to bring the numbers back up to 6 or 7.  We are only a little ways in and it will be easy to jump in.  The party is currently still pretty well balanced, so anything goes.

Still looking for a player or two to join in? I'm interested, if so.

Characteres are third level, 5th edition.  Most characters are set up on D&D beyond for the ease of rolling them up, but that isn't required as the game is run entirely on this site. 

The party currently looks like this:

Keeper of Dragons – High Elf Thief Assassin - Hornet

Tann – Warforged Fighter - Steel

Nimu – Elven Wizard - Soledad

Hammer – Hill Dwarf Cleric – Dok

Dragon-Sould92 – Elvish Eldritch Knight - Thaoran

That means that pretty much anything is open.  What are you interested in running?

Oath of the Crown paladin male dragonborn (blue) with the noble (knight) background. I'll likely join the majority on D&DBeyond. Do you need the sheet done by a certain date?

Not really a set date.  But the sooner he is rolled up, the sooner he can join the crew.  We can talk about how to mix you into the group.

Hi there my name is Mark known on the site as Dragonmist. I am looking to join a game online.

Now I havent played 5e before but i did play for several years on The Triolgy War with Tann Tanalas.

I still run  a table top game once every month as DM and think I could get the 5e down with a little 

work .If you think I might work out just give me an idea of the type of character is good for your game

     Thanks for considering me

     Mark aka Dragonmist

Mark, It is good to see someone who has been active on the site come back.  You would be welcome in the game.  I do the rolls also, so that makes it all easier.  I think the first thing to do would be to read the thread here and then the first couple of posts in the Blacktooth Ridge thread.  It will tell you what the game is doing.  We aren't that far in.  Right now we have a well rounded party which would allow you to do whatever you want.  I think we just added a paladin, assuming that works out we have two big fighter types plus a ranger.  But that doesn't mean you can't do that if you want. If you look down a couple posts on this thread I show who is in the game - plus add the paladin.  That's the group. 

Most people have set up their characters on D&D Beyond - I can send an invite to the game if you want to do that.  But that isn't necessary.  The game is run here.  What do you need from me?

Druids do exist and they can be quite good.  This campaign also has an outdoor component with no similar skill set.  A great choice. 

I believe we started at third level.  Stats come from a point buy system at the front of the Players Handbook.  Do you have access to it?  You can find a pdf of it online.  Or access to the site D&D Beyond?  Not needed, but it is quite useful. 

There is also some information on the first page of this thread.
