[@The Mighty Hero] A few questions:

1) Is this taking place as a play by post here, or do you intend to run a live game off site through discord or other means?

2) Are you accepting Unearthed Arcana content? There is a plethora of content out there, making up for the biggest lacks in D&D 5e.

3) Are you using any optional rules that would be useful to know about (feats, flanking, etc)?

4) If we start at lvl 1, we would be largely ineffective against even the weakest of the king's minions. Have you considered starting at a slightly higher level? A lvl 3 or 5 start gets characters into the feel of their characters much faster without the potential of being oneshot by stubbing your toe. It is also nearly impossible to run most casting classes at lvl 1, as well as classes like Monk that have limited resources. Heck, Monk doesn't even get ki until lvl 2. Tl;dr, I've played a lot of low level campaigns, and they aren't very interesting to me mechanically.

5) Since you don't have a lot of posts on the forum, it might be worth asking: how experienced with D&D are you? How do we know you will be committed to a long-term adventurer? Etc?

I'm not sure if I have interest or not, but these questions are, I feel, important to most 5e campaigns.
