Quick update on this, since I've totally missed my promised deadlines. My next semester starts up this coming week (which I knew about and was prepared to work around) and have also been getting pestered by IRL friends to DM for them (which I was not expecting to get or to take seriously). I've not played D&D in years, played 5th edition at all, or DM'd ever, and they want me to run a campaign ...

I would much rather do this right than do this fast, and that means right now it needs to sit on ice for a few weeks, until I'm in a more stable position to give it the attention it demands. The first week after throwing up an OOC thread is the most demanding time and sets the pacing for the rest of the RP. I would be remiss if I attempted to push forward knowing I couldn't keep up with that. I expect this hold to last between two to three weeks in order to stabilize and prepare.
