Hey guys! I am just looking for a fantasy-dnd type of roleplay! I would like it to either be based around the Vox Machina show or something similar in a plot we create! This can either be a small group or 1x1 thing!

DnD chat ey? More of a Rotgrind kind of fellow myself but if you don't mind a more... grim tone I would be down. Dark Sun? Toriel (I will not check my spelling)? Sword Coast? Or something original?

Ooo I was thinking a little more original, although I just recently got into dnd and so I’ve been trying to learn more and create more cities and such! I have a few plot ideas and have been researching stuff

Original settings can be one hell of an undertaking, especially if your not experienced with such things yet. I love them, but don't burn yourself out for the sake of novelty.

...that being said, do let me know if you have something neat you want to try. With that out of the way: hit me with a hook! Tempt me with whimsey and woe! Or just let me know which setting you want to play in...

lol, I like how you talk/type, it’s fun. Okay, so here is one plot that I have been really interested in— I call it

𝒯𝒽ℯ 𝒮𝒽𝒶𝓉𝓉ℯ𝓇ℯ𝒹 𝒱ℯ𝒾𝓁

In the setting of the realm of magic, beginning in the city of Avingail, a city made nearly entirely of marble and precious metals. The people native to this city are mostly half-elves that have made names for themselves, deciding to ignore the discrimination from their full blooded families and home communities.

The plot continues as so,

The characters all meet in a small village outside of Avingail, known as Coppersdale. They are there for various reasons, but the main issue seems to be that a disturbance has been causing the village grief. Animals behaving erratically, crops wilting overnight, and eerie whispers through the woods. The villagers speak of a mysterious artifact, the Veilstone. This is believed to maintain a balance between the material world and the Feywild.
It is up to the characters that have formed a connection to delve deeper into this mystery, and as they do, they discover that the Veilstone was shattered during an scientific ritual that had gone awry. This ritual was performed by the religious leaders of Avingail, who pretend to worship the stone to give the people peace. This break caused a rift between the worlds, and is causing all of the suffering in Avingail and all surrounding areas.
Soon, the rift will continue to open until the material world as it is known will collapse.
But.
The shards of the Veilstone had been hidden in an attempt to coverup the mistakes of Avingails leaders. The characters must embark to find each shard and put the Veilstone together to create peace once more. Each piece is hidden in a separate location, the heart of a haunted forest, a disgraced temple, the peak of a mountain, and a Fey market.
There will be twists and turns in each location, along with new Allie’s and new enemies. Are they are up for the task? Or is the world forever lost?

These are the locations and other images-

Thank you, thank you. Your are too kind. I do however have a few questions about this setting for the sake of actually roleplaying in it.


I don't want to derail your thread in case you want to find other people to RP. PM me if you want to continue this delightful train of thought.

I’ll put the answers in here just in case anyone who may want to join is curious!

I could be tempted with this premise, honestly

Ooo wel I’d love to have ya!@Ducksworth

I am always down for that type of story.

@Aurkanthis Oh awesome! So glad! If everyone would like I can make a character sheet and we can start forming the roleplay a bit more

OK cool. Is it set in Exandria, or is it just similar to VM?

@AurkanthisIt’s just similar to VM, our own group with similar themes of fantasy and species

Awesome. Anyone already know what they want to play?

I'll typically pick up a niche when I know what everyone else is thinking. Are we using all typical DnD races/classes?

Kind of, I’m working on my character, but today will be a bit hectic lol

Yep!

I was hoping it would be along the lines of dnd classes rather than so directly, given this is free form rather than based on mechanics. The setting seems very distictly elf/fae-centric... so I imagine races pertaining to that..?

Awesome. Anyone already know what they want to play?

For me, I'm thinking a hag-cursed, strength ranger. You know very strong, a little dexy, with some mild wisdom to boot. Jason Voorhees as a half-wood elf perhaps?

@Lovely Bones Oooo I like that! Super radical

The Feywild is always an option. Yeah, I also like to see what others want to play. I am adaptable.

My character is most likely going to be a human bard, but yeah, I’ll get a character sheet out before the end of today
