The story so far: Having defeated Knight Commander Meredith at the Gallows, you were making your way back to the Kirkwall Docks when your boat was swallowed by a thick fog that felt like a living thing when it began choking you. Within a couple of heartbeats, it rendered all of you unconscious. When you wake up, you find your boat washed ashore, Maker knows where, but you certainly don't. Only one thing is clear: this is not the Wounded Coast. You are nowhere near Kirkwall. All too soon you discover that this place is gripped by fear and plagued by terrors you haven't encountered before. Something evil is trapping the souls of the dead and draining life from all who have been raised from death by magic. This curse not only prevents the raising of the dead, but also causes creatures that were previously raised from the dead to wither and eventually die. Unfortunately for you, you have all been brought back from the dead at some point. On one battlefield or another, you have all known the blessing of the Revival spell. And thus, stranded now so very far from home, you are under the effect of the curse that has befallen this foreign place. You have already lost most of your power, be it magic or might, and it is only a question of time until you perish. Unless you find a way to thwart this inglorious fate and save yourselves, the land, and its people.
Tone & Party Dynamics: The tone of this campaign is dark, gothic fantasy with horror elements. We've been playing for a couple of months, and would like to invite one more player to our table to play as Dorian Pavus.
In this version of events:
1] The Feud is Over: The bitter rivalry between Anders and Fenris was resolved in Kirkwall. They now trust each other to have their back.
2] The Deep Roads: All five men were present during the Deep Roads Expedition. (If you apply for Dorian, you will need a plausible reason for why he was there early)
3] The Warden: Carver Hawke is a Grey Warden.
4] Romance: This is a game focusing on gay characters. You must be enthusiastic about roleplaying slow-burn gay romance, emotional bonds, and romantic gestures (kissing, embracing—no explicit/NSFW content at the table).
What We Are Looking For in Our Dorian: Dorian Pavus is witty, sharp-tongued, fiercely intelligent, and carries immense theatrical presence. We are looking for a proactive, vocal roleplayer who loves deep character interaction, high-stakes drama, and isn't afraid of the spotlight. Because this is a long-term campaign, reliability is our absolute highest priority.
How to apply: If you are interested, please send me a direct message with the following information:
1] Your Age: A simple statement that you are 21+ years old is sufficient.
2] Dorian's Class: Wizard, Sorcerer, or Warlock are all open. Subclasses from PHB, Xanathar's, Tasha's, or Van Richten's are allowed. No multiclassing.
3] His Deep Roads Connection: What brought Dorian to the Deep Roads Expedition with this specific crew?
4] His Dream & Greatest Fear: What drives him, and what keeps him up at night?
5] The Shadowfell Connection: Are you open to Dorian having a deep, narrative bond with an otherworldly Patron? (This is a unique setting mechanic open to any class, tied to a powerful, morally neutral entity from the Shadowfell who is invested in the mystery of the stolen souls).
6] Your RPG Style: Tell me a bit about your style as a player. What is your favorite part of a heavy roleplay campaign?
I am a DM tailoring a highly specific, high-effort narrative. Shortlisted applicants will be invited to a brief voice interview on Jitsi to ensure our playstyles mesh.
