I'm looking for someone to play in a story that I'll be DMing. Now, thing is, I haven't really DMd before, and I know that what exactly that means depends from one DM to another, so let me make that part clear right away.
I hope that sort of makes it clear what can be expected from me as a DM. Now as for the sort of RP this will be, it will be a fairly normal RP. I'm not intending to make this an RPG with stats, abilities, or anything like that. Although you may discover things that aid you in the future, it can be assumed if you find a vial of cure poison, that you will of course, be more prepared should you come across a situation involving poison. But as far as enemies having hp or finding a weapon that increases your stats, there won't be much of that. (I say 'much' of that because, you could certainly find for example, a sword that makes your character physically stronger, which you could certainly consider a 'bonus to strength')
Now onto the RP itself!
'Lords of Camelot' is a story based loosely on the many King Arthur stories. If you are familiar with those stories, then you will likely recognize some of the characters in this story. However, don't think that just because you know how those stories go, that you understand how this will go. When I say it's based loosely on them, I mean to say that this RP is set in Camelot, it is ruled by King Arthur, you will recognize many other names, but otherwise, things from character relationships to roles within the story could be very, very different.
This also means that if you have any favorite characters from Arthurian Legend, they either A: May not be anything like the character you love so much, or B: May not appear in the story at all. (I have no intention of including every single Knight of the Round Table from legend)
In this world, you are a Soldier of Camelot. You will be given a choice in class early on, and that will dictate some story aspects going forward. That is to say, each 'class' of soldier answers to a different Knight, and so who you interact with the most will differ depending on this.
Your character also won't necessarily be the main character of the RP, but will be heavily involved in it. I can say that, while you aren't the main character, you also aren't a nameless grunt either.
In this story, you will champion a Knight, learn from an instructor personally, and become the personal agent of the most powerful people in Camelot, and be at the forefront of conflicts that could very well lead to the ruin of the land. Your role will start off small, but as you prove yourself, and become more involved with the 'Lords of Camelot', you will rise from the rank and file to stand beside them, perhaps, even become one of them.
This is very much a 'Knights and Magic' sort of theme. For example, Wizards are Rare, but Common. That is to say, not many people can wield magic, but within the confines of a city you can locate someone to enchant weapons and armor or imbue magical potions with relative ease. In other words, Wizards are Rare, but their services are commonly found.
Note that 18+ versions of this play are available, but that is entirely dependent on your interests and the characters you are willing to play.
Currently I work 3 days a week, 9-6 Central US time, and during those days and those hours, my availability is volatile as my job is the kind of job where some days I may be at home with not much to do pretty much all day, and other days I may be home for me one hour lunch, and otherwise be out working sun up to sun down. The other 4 days a week however, I am completely free. I am very active, and am looking for someone who is also very active, because at this point every single time someone messages me with interest and says 'However I'm a bit busy with work but I should be available during these days-' they disappear or stop responding entirely at some point.
Really, I'm just looking for someone as interested in exploring this world as I am in sharing it. I can't promise perfection or that everything will be awesome, all I can promise is that I'll do my best to create a world you can have fun in and to tell a story that you will hopefully enjoy.
PM me if interested, I won't respond to comments here... as if you do comment here, I'm just going to assume you didn't read this.
