[STOPPED] DD5 - The Underdark Menace - English

The Duchy of Faywyr is a high security alert due to a menace from the Underdark. That sounds like an opportunity for fame and riches to a group of level 1 heroes traveling to the capital of Plumton. What adventures will they find in Plumton and the surrounding lands?

Hello, my name is Tobold, and I would like to try my hand at running a Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition game at the club. I've been a DM for a very long time, but this would be the first time in DD5, and the first time as DM at the " Saigneurs du Chaos". I am German, I do speak French, but far from perfectly. So with the rules and the adventure being in English, the game will be in "Franglais": Me speaking mostly English with some French translations when necessary, but if you prefer to speak in French that would be perfectly fine with me.

I have prepared an adventure of my own design that starts at level 1, but goes up quickly to level 3. I am not quite sure how many sessions it will take, but probably more than one. At the end of the adventure we can decide together whether we would like to continue with another adventure and make a campaign out of it. The setting is classic D&D medieval fantasy, but not taking itself too seriously. I am generally trying to achieve a balance between role-playing and combat encounters, with the goal being for everybody to have fun.

If you want to play you can either roll your own level 1 Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition character by your preferred method, or take one of the pregenerated characters I will be bringing. No experience in DD5 is required to play, and new players are welcome. 4-6 players needed.[/size]

hi tobold,

I never played D&D, and my english is not very good,
so like you it a goog exercice for me to playing in "anglçais"

when do you want playing? week/week-end?

Hello, I do play D&D (not enough for my taste) and I am perfectly comfortable playing in English. Same question as lemure, though: what sort of timetable are you thinking about?

I am pretty flexible with when to play, and will move the session to the time most people are available. As I get up early on weekdays, Friday evening would work well for me. Would that work for you?

For me, yes, except Friday the 17th (already 2 competing items in my agenda)

Let me know if you plan to bring your own character (and if yes, what race and class), or whether you want to use one of my pregenerated ones.

I'd like to play a half-elf ranger please.

Depending on when you are giving your party, I would be happy to play in English

Hi Tobold,

I'll be happy to join you on this one.
Let's doodle it to block the dates.

Cheers

I am interested. I always thought i was the only native germanspeaker here

What books can we draw from for our characters? Players handbook only? Swordcoast adventurer's guide? Volo's guide?

Good idea with the Doodle. Click here to state when you are available!

I only have the Player's Guide, but you can use characters from any book provided you bring the book with you to the table if I need to look something up.

Hello Tobold,

It's a  pitty that it is full.
If at any moment a place becomes free. I am on it.

See you

That might be possible. I don't know yet how many of the five players interested are actually available at the same time. The adventure would be good for 4 to 5 players, but 6 would probably be too much.

Yeah, it's too much :-)

Heldros, you should fill the Doodle.

On the proposed dates, the only one I might be able to join is the one on the 18th (and I still have to check it before confirming it).
If the game is on any other date than the 18th or if I cannot make it, I generously give you my slot ^^

Good idea.
But ... I had not yet looked at the doodle. You start playing too early for me :-(.

I will pass my turn.

This being my first time as DM at the club, I don't really know yet what time is convenient for most people. I'd rather start later than not finding people available. Would 19:00 work better for you?

Yeah, at 19h00, it's better :-).
But it depends on the other players.
And I'm still on the waiting list :-)

personally i prefer 19:00 to 18:00 as well

Okay, I changed the times in the Doodle to 19:00. Is 3 pm okay for weekends?

3 PM is OK for the week-ends.
Doodle has been filled in with, unfortunately, only one possible date (next Saturday).

Heldros, lemurs, Lyubina, could you please fill out the Doodle? We are still far away from having 4 or 5 players available at the same time.

If you are still looking for players, i would be pleased to join your table Tobold Let me know if you do. If so, i'll fill up the Doodle.

18th of March : I am mastering from 8
25th of March : I should be able to be there around 3 (I have a mapathon the whole day, but I could just go in the morning.

It seems most people would be available on Saturday the 25th.

By the way, once we settled on a date and the players available, how do I add the game to the calendar? Sorry, new DM question.
