Hey Gang!
I found a wellspring of interested players who submitted fantastic character applications to my Innistrad game. The campaign is something like Ravenloft with a number of "dark forces" conspiring to take over the world.
So why am I posting here?
I was hoping that the thirty character applications that I received could find a home
somewhere. I am not sure if it was the campaign, the parameters (level etc) or the RTJ set up but if you are looking for players, they are out there!
I am thinking that because of the thirty unplaced characters that this still qualifies for a Wanted GM post (because those characters do need a home).

Below were the perimeters that I used for the campaign's Player's Wanted recruitment efforts.
The World
In Innistrad, horrors stalk the shadows and scratch at doors in the night. Humanity is beset on all sides: vampires thirst for human blood, werewolves live for the thrill of the hunt, the restless spirits of the dead haunt the living, and no corpse is safe from reanimation at the hands of cruel necromancers or cunning scientists. Only their grim determination—and their staunch faith in the protection of their patron archangel, Avacyn—has allowed humans to survive in this nightmarish realm.
Horrors of the Night
The people of Innistrad are surrounded by monsters. Almost without exception, anything that is not human, whether it’s a rat or an angel, is a potential enemy. Even the traditional allies of humanity—from angels and gryffs to herons and hounds—are unreliable at best, as the madness that grips the angels seems to
seep into every living thing. And at the same time, humanity's age-old enemies grow ever more dangerous.
The specific horrors that the people of Innistrad fear most are all reflections of humanity’s darker nature. Werewolves are a living embodiment of the secret rage and violence that hide in the human heart.
Vampires are the bodily manifestation of carnal desire, hedonistic cravings, and bloodlust. Zombies and geists—the restless spirits of the dead—paint the eventual future of all people in the starkest terms, underlining the grim truths of human mortality. Demons are the unholy inversion of humanity’s spiritual longings—the shadow side of the angels’ brightness.
Still, the most dreadful creatures of Innistrad lurk within human towns and cities, pursuing their twisted schemes and unholy desires in the heart of civilization.
These are the humans that have been consumed by Innistrad’s darkness. Sinister cultists give themselves over to demons and other dark forces. Depraved necromancers raise the dead to do their bidding. Obsessives scholars pry into secrets best left hidden. Crazed scientists toy with forces of life and death in their effort to create artificial life or harness the energy that remains in the spirits of the dead. And even among the common folk—on Innistrad as is the case every where—some simply give in to selfish desires and violent rage, killing with knife and garrote rather than sorcery.
Innistrad Needs Heroes!
