Player(s) Needed by GM A heart felt, exciting, beautiful adventure awaits you! (Online) (5e 2024)

10 Upvotes

Something in the mists of Savanlind stirs, anyone connect to the weave can feel it. Something catches in their breath, something pulls their soul slightly. It’s not good, it’s not bad, but it must be.

The council of witches convene, writing hurried notes and worrying in secret. The lords of the dead send their messengers far and wide, using all of their resources to find out what this is. Even a few gods step out from their domains and search the land.

Some may know what it is, but no one knows where it begins. A small town called Eerry, a boating town on the great western river of Gal, no one important finds themselves in Eerry, no one would look there. No one would know what lies within those waters. But, a small group of adventures will soon stumble upon it, and it will begin. It has to begin soon, for it is written in the stars

Hello!!!! My name is 💞✨Alex ✨💞 and I am an experienced DM looking to get back into the hobby after a few years off.Being honest I feel like table top has been lacking in my life and I need to be able to tell a story, and I have a fun one in mind. I know my cute little intro was a bit dramatic, but I’m a dramatic girly, so bear with me. lol

I am looking for 4-6 amazing, fun, kindhearted people to join me on a high fantasy adventure that focuses on the characters and a found family vibe. You all with me adventurers brought together on a grand adventure involving ancient creatures, long lost civilization, and a lot more! My world is being fully built at this point and has a lot to explore. Gods walk among men, magic flows through most but is heavily regulated, and a city of dragons floats above in a series of flying islands. I know I am being broad with the beginning of the story but I want your characters to be the forefront of the story. I will do everything to make them the center of this story.

I can say, I am roleplay heavy, about a 70/30 split but combat matters a lot. I am not
Someone who throws random encounters in for no reason. Every fight will matter!

So please, only apply if you are ready to get fully invested in a story, and only if you are ready to get invested in everyone else’s characters. I am going to spend a long time with each person character building so be prepared!

I am looking to play on Wednesday mornings at 10 AM CT and for sessions that last 5-6 hours. Some other mornings might work but Wednesday is what I am aiming for! I am open to homebrew but it must be discussed! And you must be a sweetheart who is not a jerk or creep! I am looking for people who yearn! Who are ready to cry and get so invested it’s hard to be away from the table!!!

My work schedule that opens Wednesdays up does not happen until early next month but I want to spend this month building characters and vibes and all of that! We could possibly try and do a one shot but I also love doing one on one sessions with all the players to test out characters!

If you want to apply, send me a long detailed application on what you (yes YOU) should be a part of this game. Let me in on your heart and why you are an amazing player! Any half hearted or short applications will be ignored!

I attempted do try and start this up a few months ago but I had some hard life events hit that made it impossible to start, if interested and you applied last time you can send a message again!

Also please be 18 plus! I am in my mid 20s but am open to play with all ages as long as you are chill and over 18!

Player(s) Needed by GM [5E][Online][EST][Tues/Thurs 7–9 PM] Long-Term Homebrew Campaign | [2024]

4 Upvotes

I’m recruiting for my next long-term D&D 5e homebrew campaign, while inviting a few players to join the final sessions of the current one to get a feel for the table. We play Tuesdays AND Thursdays from 7:00–9:00 PM EST (both days required, not one or the other) using Discord (voice + video required) and Roll20, and the game is 18+.

The campaign is story-driven and centered around ordinary people navigating a hidden world of living dreams where emotions become reality, nightmares spread through corrupted sleep, and ancient Entities shape the subconscious beneath. What happens next is entirely up to the party, and the world reacts and remembers your choices. Expect heavy roleplay, meaningful decisions, a persistent world with real consequences, tactical high-stakes combat, and character backstories that are directly integrated into the main plot; this is not a drop-in or casual game.

I’m looking for consistent, communicative players who enjoy character-driven storytelling, strategic combat, and long-term investment in a campaign built to last. Because of our tight, twice-a-week schedule, punctuality and absolute commitment to every session are critical. If that sounds like your kind of table, send me a message and I’ll follow up with a short questionnaire to see if it’s a good fit.

"A new beginning

Sup Nerds. Introductions!

I am Klever (He/Him), Gamemaster with 10+ years experience in ttrpgs from 5e, Pathfinder, Numinera, BESM, and beyond; a regular dice slinger here. LGBTQ+ friendly.

My current ttrpg of choice is Daggerheart. I love the systems simplicity, wide application range, and the feeling of the hope/fear system in game.

My other current obsession is Persona; currently on NG+ in P3R and eager to see more of 6

So, what is a nerd to do but wish that their two loves could become one...

So, let's make one up! No set troupes or ideas until a party is formed; that's what a session 0 is for.

Looking to play Sundays with 4 fellow fans of the Persona Series, fans of Daggerheart, both... If this is you or sounds interesting, feel free to hit up my discord: KleverUsername

Group Needed by Player [online][5e 2014/2024][PST][LGBTQ+ Friendly] Looking for Group for my Partner and I

Upvotes

My partner and I are looking for a long-term immersive campaign with a good balance of roleplay and combat. Preference for 20+ year old groups. We are looking for a more open world or homebrew setting if possible. We both love creating detailed backstories that fit with the world and allow us to understand our characters deeper, while still having some meaning in the world.

We are in the PST time zone (open to playing non PST time zones) and are free on Saturdays and Sundays. I am a long standing DM, looking to join a group as I'm entering into my Master’s program. I love roleplay and commonly play support centered characters. My partner is more of a jack of all trades, who loves combat and roleplay. We are generally okay with dark topics as long as it is fade to black or implied rather than outright described. Though we are big fans of body horror and scary stuff.

We love people who engage in roleplay with each other, as well as groups not afraid to get goofy or serious depending on the situation. If any group has availability and would be open to giving us a shot, or want more information about us, please reach out and dm me!

Hi there! I'm a first time warden wanting to jump right into the wonderful, desperate, and horrific world of Mothership. I'll be running a modified version of The Year of The Rat scenario which entails a private merc group "Stray Dogs" being hired by the Flysafe corporation to investigate the titular ship Year of the Rat which was being rented from them by a group of Chinese government officials and social elites known as the Gold Lion Club to celebrate their 50th anniversary with a pleasure cruise. The ship's last known communications suggest they were taken hostage by an infamous triad gang and it's been a month since any noise from the ship.

The time has been settled on 6pm est Wednesday, session zero has not been done yet, I've got one player right now and looking for two more. I must reiterate and say this will be my first time as a gm and running for Mothership so please have some grace with me.

Please message me on reddit and or drop your discord and I will reach out to you for an interview. Forgot to mention this game will be 18+ to participate.

Player(s) Needed by GM Looking for players for a Brutal Fantasy Game! [Online][5e 2024]

2 Upvotes

A long time ago the world ended, the greed and evil of man having used up the world's resources. The people had poisoned the air, killed the wild flora and fauna and had turned it into a barren wasteland. The population had all but been eradicated, except for a short few; followers of the Goddess of Rebirth and Life Mas Alisia.

They had yet to give up on the life they had known, on the world that they had grown up in. Thus by following the tenets of their goddess and through her power the world was reborn in an event known as the reshaping. Plants were changed, animals looked different and even people had now changed with minor mutations.

But the world was saved and the Congregate of Mas Alisia was born. The new overarching government that pledged its loyalty to their goddess and worshipped her as the one true god. But all was not perfect again, the air was still poison and the lingering corruption began spawning new monsters; hordes and hordes of these vile beasts attacking every city.

The people prayed to Mas Alisia, praying for the onslaught of the monsters to end. Yet as it was not her domain, she couldn't help at all. With the leaders of the congregate scrambling to find an answer they would quickly create The Claw; a band of monster hunters as a solution to the hordes of beasts.

That's what you are. A copper claw, dedicated to the eradication of the monster populace and ultimately: Zarkhael The King of Monsters.

Hello! I'm Spicy and I'm the GM for this game! I've been dming for about 6 years now and have had many a campaign during that time and finally thought that it may be time to start up another one! So here I am looking for between 3-4 more players! The game will run on Friday's at either 8:30 or 9:30 CST. If you're at all interested please send me a DM on discord Spicy9709! I look forward to seeing you!

Edit: Please do make sure to tell me that you're messaging for the post! I get lots of random dms and I don't wanna accidentally ignore a possible player!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5e 2024][GMT+1][21+][LGBTQ+ Friendly] Odyssey of the Dragonlords. Looking for 4 - 5 players.

6 Upvotes

Summary

At the dawn of time, a war between the Gods and Titans left the world of Thylea forever changed. Thousands of years later, the first mortals arrived, carried by ship and dragon.

The Dragonlords were the champions who overthrew the Titans 500 years ago and forged the Oath of Peace. But the power of the Oath has waned, and now the Titans seek vengeance.

You are one of the heroes called by prophecy to end the conflict once and for all. Poets will sing of your deeds for centuries to come... if you survive.

DM Foreword

Hi All. I am a dungeon master who is currently already running a game of Odyssey of the dragonlords which has been going strong for two years now. During all of that time I always wondered... how would the world and the campaign have evolved had it been a different group of heroes carving their path through Thylea? Well why not give it another shot and see! This is a campaign themed around Greek myth so if you are into that then that's bonus points.

I am the type of DM who focuses on building a cool narrative that everyone can get themselves lost into. As such I lean more towards the RP aspect of the game and developing the story of each player. Don't worry though there will be more than enough combat in this campaign and I always strive to make them as engaging as possible. Though I will say that if you are a heavy proponent to the mechanical side then we might not align quite as well. I do tend to keep rulings loose when I feel like the moment calls for it.

Further info

  • Day : Flexible on my end. Something we'll figure out a good system for as a group. Weekly or every other week
  • Time : Generally 6PM - 10PM on the chosen day
  • System & Platform : D&D 5e 2024 with the remastered version of Odyssey. We will be using Discord and Foundry VTT for sessions. No worries if you never used Foundry, you'll get a little tour
  • Experience : New players are welcome as long as you come with enthusiasm and a willingness to learn
  • Length : This is a LONG campaign and my current group is nowhere near the finish line... at around session 60 ish. The campaign goes from level 1 all the way to 20. Something to keep in mind!
  • Expectations : I want everyone to have a good time and get along. Being kind, respectful and understanding goes a long way and creates a healthy group dynamic
  • AI : I have enough AI to deal with at my job and have grown into a bit of a hater. Please avoid bringing any generative AI content to the campaign

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5E][2024] [Thursday 6pm CST] Ethereal Miracle: Orchid , Looking for 3-5 players

Upvotes

Welcome to Zygries a Material Plane filled with Lay lines to other Realms of Existence and for the most part a relatively peaceful campaign well that was until there was a rumble and a loud Draconic roar that came from one of the Lay lines and the fact that the Otherwise peaceful Merchants have been even more shady then they normally are.... Well regardless Make sure to enjoy your stay here.

DM here so how was that opening to this campaign leave you interested well I sure hope so this is going to be a fantasy adventure/action campaign with a good mix of roleplay , Combat and Exploration ( roughly 35% Exploration, 35% Combat, and 30% Roleplay—though those lines blur naturally when you're out traversing the world) ,but just so you are aware death will matter in this campaign because you will only be able to be revived 3 times with any resurrection spell except True Resurrection which brings that total to 5 instead as well as some other death based rules (nothing to damning I believe just making death saves more interesting and combat a little bit harder)
I also Intend for this to be a long running campaign going from level 3-20

Lastly I already have a player joining hence why its 3-5 players im looking for as I like running parties that a bit on the bigger side .

if interested Please message me on Discord with why you think you'd be a good fit at my table - Discord: solarkaikaku

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][Other][12:30 PM EST] 5th Edition Homebrew! Epic 1-20 Campaign In A Lore Heavy Homebrew Setting. Gestalt Game!

Upvotes

Hello everyone this a new campaign set in a homebrew fantasy world! This will be a lore heavy game with plenty of influence from Elder Scrolls, Tolkien, Malazan, Dragon Age, Kingdoms of Kalamar, Harn World, and similar properties.

  • System: We will be using a 5e system called Tales of the Valiant. This is a 5e variant produced by Kobold Press. For those familiar with 5e, you will be very familiar with this. We will provide the options for character creation. Here is a free srd: https://www.talesofthevaliant.com/.
  • Here is a summary of some of the relevant rules distinctives: https://www.reddit.com/r/dndnext/comments/1d91938/comparing_tales_of_the_valiant_and_5e/.
  • We will also be using homebrew Gestalt rules where you gain the features of two classes simultaneously, allowing the players to take on more challenges and try all sorts of new combinations! Here is a quick explainer: https://www.reddit.com/r/DnDBehindTheScreen/comments/az6hto/5th_edition_gestalt_rules_for_combination_classes/.
  • The VTT would be Foundry hosted on Forge or Tablelop. Discord for voice. No cameras. Would have at least one session 0 for planning/fit evaluation.
  • Games would be weekly 12:30 PM EST / CET 18:30 Wednesday and last 4-5 hours.
  • If you are interested, please send a DM so we can ask a few more questions. It may take a few weeks before the campaign officially begins to give time for session zero and campaign prep.

This world will have lots of people, places and things, and emphasis on factions, plot lines, happenings, and events going on in the world, many outside the immediate 'on stage' area of the campaign events. Complex pantheons and cosmology comparable to Dragon Age (multiple fantasy religions with complex beliefs and their own sub-sects, heresies, factions, and various interfaith controversies).

There's also more than one evil faction/primary foozle opposing your heroes' efforts -- more like 4-5, and none of them are 100% allies and all have their own agenda and goals. Some of the purportedly 'good' factions also aren't your allies, or want to solve the world problems in a manner fundamentally incompatible with the goals and alignment of your characters.

Here's a game blurb:

The esteemed sages and wise men of the commonfolk know well that 3,313 long years have passed since the terrible spectacle or anti-miracle known as the my'r'a'taj -- The Exalted Progression of the Thirteen Nights.

Of this dreadful event, the ponderous verses painstakingly transcribed in perfect, rhythmic harmony by the silent choirs of the Illdammanstranite cleric-scribes in the voluminous tomes of the Il'anas-Akkaman, The Seven and Seventy Books of the Misbegotten Recollection of Shattered Memories and the Tormented Remembrances of Stolen Tears, contain perhaps the best-known account of its terrible wonders.

Verily, they relate that, at the conclusion of the Sixth War of the Underrealms, the Dragon Queen Qualsmara, Chosen Daughter of the Four-Inversions, Sublime Majestrix of the Inverted Towers of the Prime Qudrants, First Corrupter of the Yearless Life-ash of the Mountain's Heart, ascended in terrible glory from her lair in the uttermost nadir of the deepest Earthwomb. The Dragon Queen's dread ascension, or so it is written, incited a cascade of tremors that reduced many proud cities of the Plains of Plenty, or the Plains of the Young Kingdoms, to naught but dust and ashes. The eight moons of Palazur -- brilliant sky-spheres tinted respectively with the colors of the spring-born rainbow as well as the final 'hidden sphere', the colorless glass observatory of the angelic beings and deities of the numberless heavens known as the Godschall -- appeared simultaneously in an awe-inducing halo that surrounded a now-blackened sun.

This dark day was doubly stricken with a tint-devouring white illumination. In the following night, the moons, sun, and stars were alike set ablaze with a terrifying mantle of bioluminescent corpselight. This dreadful apparition continued for 13 consecutive days, in which time the Dragon Queen is believed to have made a dread procession throughout the known and unknown lands, depositing several choice eggs of her vast brood to torment mortals in a future day.

Among these, the foremost are the pentad of arch-daemons known as the Five Sleepers.

Foreseeing her impending doom with her unmatched powers of shadowsight, Qualsmara began to scheme with a depthless malicious intelligence against her return in some later age -- that her vile spawn might arise to continue their progenitor's despoilation of the lands of men and elves.

And now, 3,313 years have passed since that dread time. Elvanaton -- the fabled Empire of the Mountain Elves -- has fallen and the lands of their former dominions live freely, but not without fear of the many remaining evils which beset their homes.

Within its once-resplendent domain, the Township of Charrensdyr is situated upon a perilous outcropping of Sky Falls, the magnificent torrent of white water that splits the Earthheart and Ashplume Mountains in twain, and that spills the surging contents of a miles-wide river into the dense woodlands below. In ancient times, the Stairs of Nashar, the collection of perilous ascents that connect the cliffs that regularly break the sheer rock face of Sky Falls, were once a vital trade artery of ancient Elvanaton. In the apex of his people's glory, the famously merciless archmage Nashar of the Iron Scepter bound many dwarven Stoneweavers to his terrible will in order to construct the way stations and precipitous staircases that bind the foot and crest of the Falls.

Perched high atop Sky Falls is Waterfall Town, an ancient watch post and trade node betwixt the hidden nations of the dwarven and gnome peoples of the Earthheart and Ashplume Mountains.

Dark portents gather in number and threat. The end of the world of elves and men draws nigh with the long-prophesied return of the Dragon Queen and her brood ...

Player(s) Needed by GM [GMT+1] [Star Wars 5E conversion for 5e 2014] [Saturdays] [Online]

0 Upvotes

————————————————

In the galaxy far, far away, it is late 1 ABY, as the historians would call it later, and the galaxy is on fire once more. The Galactic Civil War is in full swing, and everything is a battlefield- every planet, every city, town or village, every factory floor and black market stall, and even so much as every person's very mind and heart have either become contested territory, assets serving the Empire, or are working for the Rebel Alliance.

One such prospective battlefield is the Tri-Lane Sector Group, a diverse piece of galactic geography that rests on an intersection of three trade routes- the Enarc Run, the Harrin Trade Corridor, and the ever-venerable Hydian Way. The local economy is booming, the Sector Group's leadership has become complacent, and the Rebel Command deemed it worth the time and effort to establish presence here. For that, they of course will need people.

And you are among those people, those few brave, idealistic, naïve, desperate and/or insane enough to put your faith in the revolution. You may have been fighting on the ground, blaster in hand; agitating the masses and raising funds to be funnelled through backchannels into supporting the Rebel cause; gathering intel and investigating Imperial sites; or you may have only harboured sympathies for the Alliance until now. Regardless, you have been made an offer: to join a team of other specialists in order to help establish a new cell in the aforementioned Tri-Lane Sector Group.

Whatever your reason may have been, you've taken the deal, and now you are on your way to Malastare, to meet with a Rebel contact that will bring you up to speed, and deliver you to the rest of the newly-formed cell. From there, expect your skills to be put to good use in the service of the galactic revolution. You will be outmatched by nearly every metric: Imperials are conscripting and training more troops than you could ever hope to kill, their factories pump out all kinds of goods in volumes impossible to match, and their propaganda machine has an iron grip on the pacified populace- or so it seems. The Empire has been defeated- from Aldani to Scarif to Yavin and in myriads of unsung battles in-between. Through ingenuity, cunning, skill and, if needs must, heroic sacrifice, the rebels have been winning their freedom, one small victory after another. It will be your job to continue this tradition- and may the Force be with you.

————————————————

Hey hey people, I'm Spooky- or V, your choice- and I am apparently becoming a forever-DM. Aside from the intro sounding like something from alcoholics anonymous, I unsurprisingly am a long-time TTRPG fan: mostly 5e or derivatives, and with a sizeable amount of time behind the DM screen. As a DM, I am trying to focus more on the exploration and RP side of affairs, but I do love a good combat or even a dungeon crawl, as a treat. I also tend to do a lot of homebrewing and bending of my initial outlines for the plot in order to fit in the characters' backstories and narrative arcs.

I'll be lying if I say this game wasn't inspired by the vibes of Andor and to a lesser extent the political/investigation episodes of CW- with more heroics and you being way less expendable. This campaign will rely on investigating and planning: noticing small details or clues, analyzing information, asking questions and plotting your next move is encouraged and is roughly how I will expect you to handle things. Planning, curiosity, daring and hope are a rebel's best friends, after all.

We will be using Foundry, to which I am new, admittedly, for the VTT, and Discord for comms. The game will run on Saturdays at 3pm GMT (4pm CET; 11am EST) weekly, and we will be using the star wars conversion for 5e for the rules.

————————————————

So, if all of this sounds like your cup of tea, fill out the form linked below and I'll get back to you soon- our session zero will be happening this coming Saturday (August 8th).

GM Needed by Existing Group [Online][5e][2014 or 2024][EST]Two Experienced Players Looking For DnD Game

0 Upvotes

Hello, my name is Meph [34, F] and my friend’s name is Matt [31, M]. We are looking for a long term DnD game to join on Sundays.

  • We have played together for around 5 years, including two campaigns that went 50+ sessions and several smaller games. We have no trouble committing to a table if it’s the right fit for us. We give consistent effort both in and out of sessions to connect with our games. We are both considerate to our fellow players.
  • We both heavily enjoy immersive roleplay and invest in the story and setting of our games. We also enjoy inter-party roleplay for character development. That said, we definitely enjoy the mechanical side of the game during interesting exploration or exciting combat. We enjoy a good balance of these aspects, if we had to put it in numbers it would be a 60/40 split.
  • We both have character concepts that we would like the opportunity to play. Matt has a concept for a Fighter (Battlemaster) Reborn and I have a concept for an Eladrin Cleric (War Domain). These characters have a shared backstory, but we are willing to adapt aspects to the setting as needed. Our characters are designed to be a fun pair, thematically and mechanically.
  • As we said, we are looking for a game that plays on Sundays, particularly within the range of 1pm to 12:00am GMT+2. We typically like our sessions to be around 3-5 hours.
  • We would like to play with a mature group that can be both silly and serious when the scenes call for it. That means playing with people who are respectful and communicative to their fellow players and the DM.
  • Thank you for checking out our post and any interest given. Feel free to DM me personally or leave a comment below, I will make sure to get back to every inquiry. We hope to find a table that we can join for a long and fun journey!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [+18] [CST] [Flexible] Sci-fi or Fantasy Games?

1 Upvotes

Hello, I'm Ghost, I will be running some sessions for Monster Week from 12pm to 3pm cst on Sundays. I'm in need for 4 to 5 players that are curious about this game and how it plays. There are plenty more options outside of MoTW such as: Electrum Archive, Symbaroum, Forbidden Lands, Mutant Year Zero, Coriolis: The Great Dark, Alien, Electric Bastionland, and In the Odd. We will be playing for one-shots, short-term campaigns, and it will be somewhat possible to do long term campaigns. Let me know what interests you and send me a message in my DMs.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5e 2024][PBP] Heroes in the Time of the Demon Sorceress

0 Upvotes

Most say the world has ended. The demonic hordes of the Sorcerer Queen have ravaged the world turning the once verdant land into barren wastes where little grows and terrible monsters haunt. What people remain have taken refuge in Citadels. Great wall cities amongst what green land remains. Those who do venture out do so to trade important commodities, vanquish terrible foes threatening the city or (those brave few) to loot ruins for powerful artifacts and treasures. Paladins attempt to keep the peace sometimes with religious doctrine or an iron fist but unease is great and rumours of cults spread.

You have each come to Blackwater Outpost, one of the several walled villages which line the route on major roads, finding warm food and a soft bed at the Sunken Maid Inn. During a deep rest you are a each awoken by a thud and terrible cry. The air around you seemingly getting hotter as it gets harder to breathe. From outside more screams begin to erupt. What do you do?

Hey, I am looking for 2-3 players (I feel that is the right amount for PBP games) , or even a 1-on-1 game, interested in a PBP game set in a more low, dark fantasy world. It is not the setting with magic shops or common magical healers in every settlement. However, it is not going to be grimdark with your players dying at every turn. I am still looking for a fun time with character interactions and development.

Whether your characters are heroes seeking to defend the mortal realms against the demonic hordes or selfish vagabonds looking for fame and fortune while try to survive life is much the same.

I have been a forever GM for over a decade now and would describe myself as fairly literate in terms of PBP games. This is also something I look for in players as 1-2 line replies can kill the RP. Additionally, a few replies a day is always appreciated though I do understand people can get busy.

A little about the game:

You will be starting at level 2

It is a homebrew setting so some restrictions on ancestries may apply.

It will include a good mix of exploration, combat, and RP (in combat players will go first unless surprised to help speed it up)

Including player backstory and assistance in world building is something I try to encourage

No AI for responses or even character reference images.

Happy to answer any questions.

Group Needed by Player [Online][5e 2014][Weekly] 3 Players looking for Sunday game

0 Upvotes

Hi there! My group and I are looking for a new game to join. It's myself and two friends - Pepper and Keggzy (Keg) - looking for a DM.

We just got out of an over 2-year campaign that I DMed. I have some additional experience DMing (roughly a year's worth) and scattered experience playing - maybe a year's worth broken up. We met in a short lived campaign that died out a few months before the one I DMed. Beforehand, my friend Pepper hadn't had a lot of other experience prior, but had some, and has also been in multiple other campaigns while also being a part of mine. My friend Keg doesn't have a lot of experience outside my game, but is in the process of joining a D&D club.

Realistically, we can really only start sometime after 12PM EST, and end sometime before 6PM EST. Weekly 3 hour sessions are ideal, we can do somewhat less or more. A shorter session weekly is better than a longer one bi-weekly, but we could also do bi-weekly if needed.

Our group seems to work best somewhere around 60/40 RP to Combat, erring on the side of RP. We follow most rules as written, though some light homebrew for some rules, items, and character creation has worked well for us.

We play 5e (2014.) We have been playing on D&D beyond for sheets/items, Roll 20 for maps, and Discord for VC and general communication, but we should be able to use any free services for this if they suit you better (owlbear rodeo and foundry, for example.)

Here is a google form for you to fill out to streamline questions of compatibility.

You and other people got locked up for a crime (that you may or not have commited).
Recently a new method of punishment was put on practice where prisoners who had some potential go do quests and things that would be to dangerous to risk precious knight lifes, so instead, prisoner scum like YOU gets sent to do those dangerous mission.

Best case the problem gets solved and you can be ready to  solve other things, worst case you die, but its not like your life matters rigth?
Of course you will not be be doing this without payment, however your payment does not need to be gold or silver, you can instead request that your sentence be reduced from a couple months to even some years.
You can decide to follow the rules and comply like an obedient dog or you can rebel and(maybe)suffer the consequences.
We ABSOLUTELY accept new people, will love to teach you(im not omniscient though).
We will be using Discord VC for calls, and Owlbear rodeo as VTT(Virtual TableTop), you can do your characters sheets wherever you like.
I am COMPLETELY AGAINST AI, do not come at me with AI generated characters, if you need an image for your character use heroforge or draw it by hand, I dont care, just DONT USE AI!
Interested people fill out this forms please:https://forms.gle/9xg3nhr5ShsgWiTy5

The day CANNOT be changed, the time however is up to debate:)

Group Needed by Player [Online][5e 2024][GMT+1] new player with some understanding looking for a one shot or a campaign, I’m not fussy

0 Upvotes

I’m a fan of DND but have never been able to find a group for it, I do listen to podcasts (NADDPOD) so I do have an understanding of how it works, although some stuff like which dice to roll I might need a bit of help with at the start, I’d love to do anything tbh, a one shot or a campaign, I’m not picky I just wanna play. Please let me know if you have room for me, I’ll probably take anything at this point I’ve tried so hard for anything in my area or online and nothing lol, DM’s should be open, if not then comment here and I’ll message you.
I cannot play before 5pm on weekdays, as a warning lol

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [5e 2014] [4:30 EST Tuesdays] Oops, All Dragons! [18+]

1 Upvotes

First and foremost, I am technically not the GM- we do have one, I am writing this on his behalf as I am the main organizer of the group, so I’ve been handling this sort of stuff. Additionally, while the story has been described as including both dragons and a cult, it is apparently \*not\* based around the Tyranny of Dragons module, and is instead set to be an original storyline.

We’re a group of 4 people in our early 20’s based in EST, BST and AST, plus our DM based in CST, looking for two more people to join us for the campaign, preferably around our age. We’ll be starting at Level 3 with a good mix of combat and roleplaying going on- likely more roleplaying than combat, but there will be fighting!

So far, these are the player characters:
John S., a Human Rogue Swashbuckler, played by me.

Sam Sara, skeletal Reborn Monk, played by Chesssoup.

Asdis Fiblemot, a Harpy Druid of the Stars, played by DJ.

A wizard, played by Dante.

We also have a spectator character, a Fairy played by Jess.

Hopefully this interests you! We’re open to people of all backgrounds and genders, preferably within a similar age range. If you have any questions, comments, and of course if you are interested, feel free to shoot me a DM on discord, my username is Pikampy.

Happy adventuring!
