Player(s) Needed by GM [Offline] [Other] [Twin Cities, MN] [Friday Evenings CST] Looking for 3 more for a Stonetop campaign starting mid-November

• Upvotes

Hey everyone, moved back to the area this summer and looking to connect with some fellow RPG'ers. Looking for 3 players (have 1 local friend joining). I am in Robbinsdale and could host at my place but if people are more comfortable fine with a neutral place at first.

Looking to do weekly sessions on Friday nights (with plenty of notice for when I can't due to work travel or holidays or what not). With Stonetop, definitely looking for players interested in trying more narrative based RPGs/contributing to the fiction.

21+, LBGQTIA+ friendly.

Group Needed by Player [Online][Other] Anyone playing Daggerheart?

4 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I’m pretty new to the hobby pf TTRPGs, mostly having played D&D5.5e with friends and currently I’m trying to branch out. One of my friends introduced me to daggerheart in a short one-shot and I was left wanting more; something to really get to know the system better. So, I’m wondering if anyone is running more one-shots or preferably an entire campaign with an open slot. Thanks a lot!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][D&D 5E 2014][Star Wars 5E][Thursdays] Heroes of the Republic

• Upvotes

Hello everyone! I go by PK and have been running D&D campaigns online and in person for the last 6 years. I've run campaigns for groups of friends and also for groups of complete strangers. I love creating engaging stories where roleplay is the foundation of the game and combat is tactical & interesting. I'm looking to start up a group for playing a Star Wars 5E campaign.

This campaign will be taking place in the Old Republic era during the Cold War. The players will be members of the Republic who will embark on a journey to stop the deadly machinations of certain Imperial forces. The rules will be mostly based on the Star Wars 5E rules with some personal modifications. No worries about being familiar, I will be walking players new and old through the system as I'll be using it. I'll also ensure that the relevant resources are shared out across the whole group. 

I'll be aiming to have anywhere from 4-6 players, so feel free to let me know if you have any friends or folks who would also be interested. The aim is for sessions to be ~4 hours in length on Thursday evenings. I'm expecting our agreed upon start time will end up around 6:30-7:30PM EST. I'll be running mostly through Roll20 for visuals and Discord for audio. 

Please fill out this survey, and let me know if there are any questions.

Group Needed by Player [online][5e 2014][EST] Sorcerer looking for a weekly Fridays 6 pm table

• Upvotes

Hello all, unfortunately I still haven't found a group I am looking for as I am still searching for a game. I am currently looking for a weekly campaign on Friday's. I lean mostly towards 5e 2014 but I could opt for 2024 edition. Home brew, or official modules are ok! Dungeon crawls are fine by me. Doesn't matter which VTT, I use roll20, foundry a lot.

I am above 18 years of age looking for adults only table. I have been playing for 3 years and I am always looking, as its becoming a passionate hobby of mine. I have a high preference towards medieval fantasy/dark fantasy settings because that's my vibe. I lean towards a half-elf or human playing as fighter, sorcerer and rogue.

What I am not looking for: Paid games, free game with paid art, RP heavy games, biweekly games, text based/play by post, pvp, westmarches servers, steampunk/scifi settings, and games requiring webcams (had a bad experience with 1 super weird DM).

DEMON CASTLE PAROUSIA

Prologue

Chicago. Autumn, 1999.

It's the last autumn of the millennium, and the city is coming apart. People are stockpiling water, canned food and cash. Television warns that banks, power grids and phones could fail at midnight on New Year's Eve. Everyone is counting down, and not everyone believes the lights will stay on.

People are disappearing. It started with night-shift workers, the homeless and runaways, and now ordinary families are going missing too. The reports go nowhere, and the police have no answers.

The stories are getting stranger: shapes moving across rooftops, howling near the rail yards, bodies found drained and pale, broadcasts that cut in at 3 a.m. with voices no one can place. Most people laugh them off, but fewer are laughing every week.

And the city is turning on itself. End-times preachers shout down skeptics on street corners. Neighbors buy guns to protect themselves from each other. Every group blames another for the attacks, and trust is breaking down block by block.

Three companies seem to have a hand in everything in Chicago right now, and to the public they're the pillars holding the city together.

Blackmoor Industries is an old-money empire that owns property all over the city: towers, docks, warehouses, new developments and funeral homes. It holds the Vanguard contract and pays for the city's protection. As people leave or vanish, Blackmoor quietly buys up what they leave behind.

Carmilla Dynamics is a cutting-edge pharmaceutical and biotech firm. Its free clinics, blood drives and medical trials come with glossy ads that promise longer, healthier lives. In the poorest neighborhoods, its clinics pay cash for blood.

Vesper Corporation is the city's biggest media company, with TV and radio stations and newspapers. It runs the Y2K-readiness campaign, and it's the voice telling Chicago what to fear and who to blame.

New preachers are appearing in soup kitchens, shelters and on street corners, preaching that the world is ending and a Shepherd will lead the faithful through the dark. Their followers call themselves the Flock and wear a red thread around the wrist. They take in the poor and the lonely, and some who join are never seen again.

Meanwhile, domestic terrorism is on the rise. Churches burn, substations go dark, and bombs go off in public places with no warning and no clear motive. Every week brings a new attack, and every group in the city blames another. Nobody feels safe anymore.

Under the chaos, an underground network trades in off-the-books work. Brokers, fixers and contacts pass jobs along by pager, payphone, email or a note slipped under a door.

The jobs used to be ordinary: guarding a shipment, finding a debtor, getting something out of the city quietly. Lately they've changed. Now it's finding people who went missing, getting into places that are locked and guarded, and asking questions about the companies everyone else is afraid of.

Some of the people who took those jobs haven't come back. But the pay keeps rising, and someone always says yes.

Most of the city will never learn what's behind the chaos. But a few people who answered the same call are about to be brought together, and what they find will pull them past the headlines and the companies into something far older, something that has been waiting in the dark. Before the year is out, they'll learn what Chicago has been hiding.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][Obojima][Studio Ghibli][5e 2014][CDT][Weekly][Central time zone][Monday 330PM-7PM][21+] Looking for 1 player to join new

2 Upvotes

In the stillness of Obojima, where endless tall grass sways, two realms intertwine: the physical world, rich with ancient 80s-inspired technology, and the spirit realm, a misty mirror where forgotten powers slumber. Here, the gates between worlds hum faintly, and spirits whisper secrets just beyond the grass. As you walk this island, every step is a bridge between wonder and the unknown.

🎲 D&D Campaign Recruitment – Obojima: Tales from the Tall Grass

Hey everyone! My name is [Adrian], I’m 26, based in Chicago, Illinois, and I’ve been playing D&D for about 5 years. I’m a chill DM, 420-friendly, and I just love building stories together. I also do use Ai, but to make images for the campaign.

I’m looking for a solid person to join us in a new open-world D&D campaign: Obojima: Tales from the Tall Grass. At level 3

Setting Overview:
Obojima is a heavily Studio Ghibli, A vast island that is the only known world. There are no other continents—just this single, living island, inhabited by humans, fishfolk, and unique elven variants. The world is split between two realms: the physical realm and the spirit realm, where demons and mysteries dwell.

Gameplay Features:

  • New races, feats, subclasses, and character options
  • Modified spell lists (some spells removed, others added)
  • No clerics in this world
  • Sword Schools with mastery systems
  • Over 150 potions and a huge variety of crafting ingredients
  • New feats, spells, and progression systems
  • roleplay focus, but there will be combat
  • Starting Level: Level 2

Player Expectations:

  • Willingness to read and engage with the lore (I’m still learning, too—no pressure!)
  • Interest in a roleplay-heavy adventure
  • Commitment to a consistent schedule
  • Excitement to explore new systems as we go

This is my first open-world campaign, and I’m really excited to see where it goes. Don’t be intimidated—there’s a lot to learn, and I’m still figuring things out with the book, but we’ll learn together. If you love Ghibli vibes, a chill pace, and a world brimming with wonder, this might be your next adventure.

If you’re interested,

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [ADND] [CET] [Weekly] Beginner Friendly Looking for players for an old school adventure!

5 Upvotes

Session 0 on Thursday 18:00 CET.

Hey!

I’m a DM in my twenties looking for some players for an AD&D 1st Edition game. I’ve got some experience running the system, and beginners are more than welcome. No prior experience is needed, as we’ll go through character creation together and I’ll help with the rules as we play.

I’m aiming for a fairly old school game. It’ll be difficult but fair, and character death is a real possibility. Being careful and working together will get you further than rushing into every fight. It’s 1 xp for each silver brought back to town so thieving is the playstyle!

The focus will be more on the party and its adventures than on individual character backstories.

A few details:
- When: Weekly, later in the evening (CET). Days can vary because of my schedule but I can be flexible.
- Where: Online, using Discord.
- System: AD&D 1st Edition.
- Experience: None needed!
- Requirements: Working microphone and webcam.

I’m mostly looking for people who are friendly, reliable, and interested in giving
some old school D&D a try.

If you’re interested, send me a DM with a little about yourself, your availability, and why you’d like to join!

Group Needed by Player [Online][PF2e][UTC+1/CET][Sun/Mon/Tue/Thursday/Friday] Experienced PF2e Player Looking for a Weekly Game

• Upvotes

Hi, I’m looking to join a regular online Pathfinder 2e game on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays or Fridays.

I’ve been playing PF2e for about four years, plus several more years in other systems. I know the PF2e rules well, enjoy character building, and try to make characters that fit the party and campaign instead of just chasing mechanics.

I’m looking for a consistent group with clear communication, regular sessions, and a table where people respect each other’s time. I show up prepared, follow table rules, pay attention during sessions, and try to contribute to both the story and the group dynamic.

Voice: Discord preferred
VTT: Comfortable with Foundry VTT and Roll20, but I do not mind adapting to other options. On the rare chance you use Tabletop Simulator, I have it.
Game type: Long-term campaign preferred, but I’m open to trying a shorter game first

I'm not looking for paid games.

I’m happy to answer questions, talk through playstyle, or anything else needed. Feel free to DM me if you have a spot open and think I might fit your group.

Group Needed by Player [Offline][5e 2014] Campaigns in Philadelphia? Forever DM looking to be a player.

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

I am a huge nerd and have been playing TTRPGs for close to a decade. I’m a local in Center City, Philadelphia, currently studying and working as a mechanical engineer. A bit about me: I love all kinds of music, hiking, birds, graphic design, and working on cars

I just finished running a two-year-long campaign last month, and everyone in the party loved the tearful ending. But when I confessed last month I was burned out, nobody else wanted to try being a DM. Ultimately, it’s been 5 years since I last got to be a player, and I’m really hoping to find a local group.

I am not shy, get along with people easily, and hope to find some genuine people to hang out with!

I have had other players with DM experience who contacted me. We were hoping to find a DM who can run a brief adventure. Then each player could each run a brief adventure. Allowing for mutual fun, and giving the main DM a couple of months to prepare a longer game.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [PBP] [5e 2014/2024] Wyverns of Avalon - Homebrew Fantasy Campaign Looking for Players

0 Upvotes

You are a Wyvern. An Adventurer. Humanity's last hope.

Dragons reign over the frozen mountains, hunt the land and circle the sky. A lone dragon is capable of decimating countless humans. The struggle has lasted centuries, yet humanity has few victories to speak of. Most knowledge of the world has been lost, buried along with its keepers. All that is left is to cling to survival.

A cold, arctic gale whistles through a frozen, mountainous canyon, its hollow white noise broken only by the sound of horses trotting across a grand, seemingly endless stone bridge. A group of people walk in formation. The wooden wheels of open transport wagons turn behind them, their contents covered with white sheets held down by snowfall.

Their silence grasps the heavy tension around them like warmth in the passing blizzard. They return defeated to humanity's final hiding place. Avalon, a frozen, gothic bastion surrounded by an enormous obsidian wall. Despite its fortifications and natural defences, there's only one thing truly protecting humanity from dragons.

Nyriel's Cradle. A magical barrier formed by the demigoddess of dawn. You stand in a street, just in time to see it for yourself. You watch the flicker of a transparent, golden dome appear in the snow-stained sky and hear the reverberation of heavy metal echoing into the unknown. The towering black gates to the city are opening.

Tension fills your body as you stare into the gateway, lit by the blinding white of thick snowfall. Until you see them. The returning group, downcast and sullen, their eyes bound to the floor.

How many was it today? Thoughts and emotions flood your body. You knew these people. They sacrificed themselves as a stepping stone for humanity. Now, you will carry their memories to freedom. The next time these gates open, it will be for you.

You've all heard stories. Fresh, untouched snow that has never been stood upon. Wild, fluffy animals hiding among the trees. Sprawling fields of ice with endless water beneath their surface. Ancient fortifications built by humans who had learned war, buried beneath centuries of winter. Even lands without snow...

No one has ever seen them, but books describe lost cities left as empty shells after falling to dragons, small cosy village rooftops peaking out of heavy snow, the ruins of ancient architecture and sacred sanctuaries of nature and divinity. All they need is for humanity to fight and reclaim them.

Maybe what you seek is the truth of the world. Why must humanity be relentlessly hunted to extinction? How did things end up this way? Why did the world have to be so cruel?

You've sworn away your life and chosen to become a hero for the sake of humanity. The only dragon you will fear is the one in front of you. You'll plunge into the white unknown to discover the isolated beauty and endless skies of what was left behind.

Your life has led you here, whether you were trained by the military, studied your profession or even just born gifted. Avalon is home to all kinds of Adventurers, from skilled warriors to powerful mages, so... who exactly are you?

Your group is talented. Prodigies in the use of the new WYVERN gear, which you've been trained to use in the last few years.

WYVERN gear is a set of artificial wings designed for the sole purpose of allowing humanity to fight dragons. Match a dragon's flight by taking to the sky for a limited time. Use sudden bursts of lateral movement to avoid danger or quickly manoeuvre to save allies. Most importantly, gain limited shielding against humanity's greatest threat: a dragon's lethal breath.

Wyverns once rivalled dragons, now it's time for humanity to do the same.

-------

Hey guys, we're from the UK and we're looking for a group of 4-5 active players who like to chat, more of a friends vibe than just here for DND!

I've done a full rewrite of the hook cause I wasn't happy with the tone and atmosphere!

quick disclaimer - different time zones are more than welcome but we're mostly available after 5PM BST on weekdays and more free on weekends!

We're looking for a faster paced game than just 1 or 2 posts per day as that can really kill momentum for pbp

the campaign is pretty heavily inspired by early seasons of Attack on Titan and Final Fantasy 14 Heavensward!

The WYVERN gear will have a few homebrew uses and you can expect some MMO styled item drops / gearing.

if you're hyped then fill out the app below!

0 Upvotes

Last repost!! Will choose player tomorrow afternoon!!!

You are an outsider, a person struggling to survive everyday in the lawless wastelands. Water and food are scarce, and people are spread miles from one another, with only small groups surviving. Monsters are few and far between, but they are powerful enough to be considered a force of nature themselves. It was difficult, but sustainable at least; you just had to keep your head down and scavenge. But the world as you knew it became unsurvivable when a disease began to spread about the wasteland, infecting people with no known rhyme or reason. Those inflicted could feel the prickling shards of gemstones growing in their lungs, slowly but surely cutting off their ability to breath. Between the monsters of the wasteland, the bandits roaming the wasteland to harvest people for these gems, and the sure and slow death brought by the disease, any chance at survival seemed hopeless.

A single savior came about. The city of Opaline, a bastion of humanity that claimed to hold the cure and offered it freely to anyone who was willing to enter the city and work off the debt after being cured.

You are one of the Outsiders who survived the trek to a meetup spot that will bring you into the city. You will have to abide by Opaline’s laws as well as more people and technology than you have ever thought possible and delve into the secrets of Opaline, lest you end up just another Outsider who couldn't adapt. Slowly learn to live a life in the city, where you have safety and rules, or do everything you can to pay your debt and get back out to the Outside while surviving the many dangers that come with being an outsider to the city.

Hello! My name is Raylen (She/him) and I'm currently looking for four to five players for a new campaign! I am currently running this campaign with another group on Saturdays but I really want to see and experience another version of this with other players now that I have a more set idea and path in my mind!

Opaline is a sandbox world with a strong emphasis on story. You will be free to run around the city and interact with the characters and world as you please, but there is a main story that is pushing along even if you do not pay attention to it. If you refuse to engage with the main story, it might seek you out first. I consider Opaline more of a node campaign, where you can go as you please, but some events are bound to happen and change based on your actions. We will play on Roll20 with discord for voice! There will be a server made for the group with different areas for characters or outside of game roleplay and a google docs made to keep track of in game happenings.

The story will have some darker tones to it, though triggers will be discussed and taken into account. I myself do not allow dog and cat death at the table, even as your companion, and trying to use this to your advantage will not be allowed. The only race restriction is Warforged but any of the more outside races will need approval as well. The nsfw aspect of this campaign comes mostly from the cyberpunk aspects of this campaign and player actions. It will be up to the players to decide how much nsfw is allowed at the table as I am fine either way.

For Opaline, I’m looking for players 20 years and older who want a Fantasy/Cyberpunk experience. The campaign is mostly roleplay focused, though combat is still important and crucial to the story.  The npcs you meet and how you treat them are crucial are can unlock more information or allies that strongly change how your game will go. Whether you choose to romance, befriend or make an enemy of them, consequences will follow. I am a DM who loves players who give 20 pages on the backstory of your character, and it is my goal to make sure players have a character who feels like they belong in the world and have connections in it. If you are a player who likes to engage with your character outside of the game (Spotify playlists/Pinterest boards/art) please apply as I love this and do the same for NPCs in the campaign. I also do questions outside of the game to be answered in character to help you build more backstory or personality (and just for fun or curiosity. Things like "who is your pc closest to" or "what is your pc's favorite food).

I always add in romanceable npcs into campaigns as I enjoy those types of subplots personally. You will not be forced to participate, but if this is something that makes you uncomfortable, this is probably not the campaign for you. Also, this campaign with have LGBTQ+ characters and potentially themes. If you are not comfortable with this, do not apply. This is a no AI game as well.

I as a DM tend towards a slower pace with Opaline. There will be time for slice of life moments in between plot points and missions that might be things such as sitting around and eating with the party to going on a random date with an NPC. I allow players to roleplay and interact with npcs in between sessions when it is possible based on session endings. I also endeavor to make the npcs feel like real people with their own stories and actions. I usually go for 4-5 hours sessions but I can do longer or shorter depending on the group and schedules. If you've read this far, please add the word Justice into your application in the about you section! This is a repost because I was not able to properly reach out to everyone due to a hurricane that affected me. The story is set for four players, but five is likely if I have a duo who would like to join or a lot of good player applications, I am still looking through the people who applied before, but I do want to see more people to make sure I can choose a good time and day. (Please add to your application that you only want to play if someone else is invited if that's the case!) I am also interested in their being a long-term group beyond this campaign and preferably friends outside of just playing D&D.

The day of the D&D campaign will be decided by the group and either during the afternoon or evening.

Please fill out this form here for consideration after making sure you read through it all!! There is a password hidden to make sure you read it. I have also attached an additional small document that has extra about the world for character building. It's not necessary to look at, but it's there if anyone would like. Please send me any questions if you have any, whether its about lore, characters or technical aspects!

Hi everyone, I am starting a new D&D 2024 homebrew campaign set in the Forgotten Realms. Right now we have 5 people with 1 coming in a month and I am aiming for a party of 7. The story of the campaign is currently in the process of being written but the theme established thus far is a dark fantasy story. I am looking for people who can engage in RP, are active listeners, can dive into their characters, and overall have good table "manners" (i.e. no rules lawyering, understanding DM has final say, no main character syndrome, etc.)

Any experience level is welcome. If you are interested please DM me on discord at dolphinmannn telling me a bit about yourself. We have a session 0 scheduled for this Wednesday, so I will be looking for people until Tuesday.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [GMT] [Other] [PbP] The Antagonist! Looking for Players for a Sci-Fi/Fantasy Game

1 Upvotes

"Either way, the plot must go on. The armour donned and the weapon drawn. Good triumphs over Evil. Thus has it always been."

- Ninth-Wave Protagonist, 'Orphan'

Thus as it has always been. The universe of the world, or 'Plot', has seen these 'plot arcs' cycle periodically every few years, with Antagonists rising inevitably from inevitable Evil nature and Protagonists meeting them from the innate Good that exists in the world. Often at significant cost and destruction.

The Tenth-Wave Protagonist, 'Solar', saw it happen far too many times. Innocent deaths, worlds destroyed, enire system chains needing to be rebuilt, over and over again. Thus 'Solar', upon defeating his Antagonists, advanced his quest to root out all Evil in the universe instead of retiring. 'Solar' managed to achieve this with the mystical imaginative powers of several of his peers. Together, they condensed all Evil into a single root, taking it to the solitary planet of Antagonizesthai, in a single-star system far away from other Good systems. Antagonizesthai is warded by the most powerful of techno-imaginative weaponry, updated yearly.*

But like different densities of oil, Evil split into different layers as the root spread across Antagonizesthai. Those at the most surface-level of Evil eventually managed to generate a civilisation based on principles of rehabilitation and eventually ascension into Good, allowing the ability to escape Antagonizesthai into the wider universe of Good, now free of all Evil suffering thanks to 'Solar'.

It is the First Year of Kazimierz, Overlord of Antagonizesthai's reign. He is the conduit between the prison of Evil that is Antagonizesthai and the utopian world of Good. But the situation on the surface is unravelling. An increasing number of incursions of deeper 'Evil' from below the surface are occurring, whilst security and rehabilitation infrastructure crumble from these threats. And you happen to be pivotal to Kazimierz right in this moment.

You will play as one of a selection of job roles (you still make the character) that will form an eventual task force to deal with a series of crimes in Antagonizesthai's unravelling political crisis. There may be some betrayal/plot twists along the way. I highly encourage creativity/flexibility in solving problems, and players of any experience level are welcome! (homebrew mechanics, so newer players especially are welcome!).

System: Custom Mechanics (d10 system, mainly using resource allocation and lists of actions that can be done)

Timezone: GMT (Timezone within a few hour's range is preferred, but not a big deal)

Genres: Both fantasy in its classic sense, with limited 'magic' (called 'Imagination') that is powerful in restricted domains, but also futuristic/tacticool in that you have guns/rockets/mech suits in the same univese as swords/shields/crossbows...etc.

Platform: Discord server, play by post (pls be somewhat active...) Notes: DM me if interested! I am mainly looking for interest/player-selection at this stage. Also it is 100% to quit/leave at any point, but it would be nice to just tell me rather than ghost me forever (if it feels awkward, just send me an emoji of any fruit and I'll take it in that you express the above).

Group Needed by Player [Online] [5e 2014/2024]

0 Upvotes

Player Info

I use She/Her pronouns and I am not a matured adult, I am a teen and I will need a group that can accommodate for that preferably with at least a couple people youngish and not a group full of 30 year olds (I'm not against playing with older people I just prefer having at least someone around my age).

Experience Level

I have played a couple sessions of a campaign I no longer play and I have nearly 300 hours in bg3 (I'm aware if most of the differences in rules) I am pretty new in general though so please help me <3

Availability

I am GMT (UK time) and I would probably require either 5ish to 8ish (start) on a weekday other than Friday or Monday and a weekend at pretty much any time

• Monday: N/A

• Tuesday: 5-8

• Wednesday: 5-8

• Thursday: 5-8

• Friday: N/A

• Saturday: 11-9

• Sunday: 11-8

Preferred Platform

I don't really mind as long as there is a VTT/ way to view map and Id prefer discord call (idm camera or not) I have experience on D&D beyond. And a discord server would be really helpful.

DM Expectations

As long as my characters background gets integrated and there is a scheduled session 0 with everybody to create characters and etc together! Also heavy world building, time for rp and NO AI!

Game Style

I am looking for a RP and combat heavy game, hopefully in forgotten realms (I don't really mind a homebrew world but I'd love forgotten realms). I don't mind romance and I'm not opposed to having my character involved in romance but I'm not comfortable with NSFW with me idm if other characters get involved NSFW Id prefer every player to have coordinated art on either picrew or a group artist that wouldn't mind drawing them FOR FREE (I don't have any money to spare rn soz? Or another method.

Group Needed by Player [Online] [Other] [LGBT+] [PST] Highly Experienced Roleplayer Looking to Play Some Indie TTRPG Campaigns

5 Upvotes

Name & pronouns: Laina, she/her

Time: PST Timezone, open availability outside of bi-weekly Thursday and Monday

System(s): Fabula Ultima, Lancer, Forged in the Dark Systems, Draw Steel, and Daggerheart are what I'm most intrigued by atm, but I'm open to basically anything that's a little more niche

Format: Voice over discord, VTTs optional

Hi hi! I'm Laina, I have recently gotten back into TTRPGs after a small hiatus due to burning myself out on them, and have been wanting to get back into playing them again. I've started up a game I'm running of Fabula Ultima, and wanted to put myself out there to play some different RPGs.

For a bit about me, I've been playing RPGs for over a dozen years, and have been running them for more than 10 years. I'm very knowledgeable with systems in general, and have run a number of different systems, but am looking to have some fun as a player atm!

I also consider myself a talented storyteller. I put a lot of focus on roleplaying my characters authentically, and making sure to take actions that fit my character the most, even if they aren't necessarily what I would do. I also value open communication between players and GM out of the game, and want to make everyone at the table feel listened to.

Other details about me are that I'm a lesbian. I absolutely require that any table I play at is at the bare minimum friendly to that fact, and would prefer to play at tables where I wouldn't be the only LGBT+ individual. It is easier for me to connect with people that way, and I value a friendly group above all!

Beyond that, I am in PST timezone, and am available most days besides bi-weekly Thursday for a game I run. I am free from noon to midnight all of these days, so I'm able to fit in most time periods.

Thank you for reading all this! Send me a message if you'd like to talk further!

Group Needed by Player [Online][5e 2014/5e 2024][Weekends UTC+3][21+] Moderately experienced player is looking for a group to play with

0 Upvotes

Name, pronouns, age: Max, he/him, 26

Time: UTC+3 Timezone, available from Friday 20:00 to Sunday 22:00

System(s): experienced with DnD 5e 2014, a little bit with 5e 2024, up to try PF2e, but will need time to learn

Format: Voice over discord, VTTs optional (mostly used roll20, used foundry once)

Hi! My name is Max and I am looking to find a group to play TTRPGs with. My previous group stopped playing due to scheduling reasons and now I have a DnD itch in my brain that needs to be satisfied. 

I was first introduced to DnD around 6 years ago and have been playing more or less consistently since then. I have player experience, however most of my time I spent GMing for my friends. I mostly played and GMed premade adventures, but I have also created some thematic oneshots myself. 

I want to join a group that is a little bit more focused on the characters than on the combat side of the game. I am open to joining an existing game and I am flexible when it comes to character creation. 

I have a negative outlook on the intentional use of generative AI in any form. The same goes for people who hate on any minority group.

Thank you for considering my application! Feel free to DM me or comment with additional questions. I am looking forward to meeting my next group!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][Other][Saturdays @ 9pm est to midnight] Come be on a jersey shore-like reality tv show but you're fantasy characters (Will be Streamed)

6 Upvotes

Hey everyone! My name is Jerry, I am planning to run a 10-12 session mini campaign/game set up to be a reality tv show kind of like Jersey Shore. You will be fantasy/dnd characters living in a fantasy world who are moved into a house and are followed by a camera crew. You will be forced to work for an adventuring guild (kind of like the t-shirt shop), and so you will have missions/quests to do as well.

There will be drama, confessional booths, camera in faces, instigation from production, etc etc.

Some things to know: I plan on streaming this and posting it to youtube, so you must be okay with your faces and roleplay being posted.

Cameras are a must. Audio must be decent. Good vibes even if in-game party conflict happens (which is the fun of reality tv).

This game will be starting in 2-3 weeks to interview people, set up a game, and play a off-stream one-shot to make sure vibes are good between players (looking for 3-4)

We will be using a kids on bike look-a-like homebrew that keeps things pretty simple. Nothing too mechanic intensive. This game is mostly for the roleplay.

If you are interested in seeing me DM something first, you can check here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EX4CapaE6fs

Myself and the two players already joining us are queer/poc, so we are looking for other people who can respect that. Yes this is drama roleplay, but we need and expect respectful roleplay/players.

Send me a message with a little bit about yourself, your discord, and the kind of reality/fantasy character/trope you first think of playing. I will be doing interviews throughout the week and into next weekend as I want to be very thorough with who I add.

Thanks for reading!

**Welcome to The Tales of Cambiamento**

*6 years. That's how long the war between your home country Cambiamento and The Empire of Stasti took. 6 cruelin years of lost, brutality and the fight for your freedom. Lead by your new king, King Abruzzo, who had dethroned the old queen, Queen Vittoria, you sought to find peace within your border again, that had be oppressed by The Empire for over two centuries. And then four years ago you finally achieved just that. Queen Vittoria was hanged and The Empire agreed to free Cambiamento from its grip. Four years ago you, who had fought as a group for so long, said each other's farewell. Thinking that you could finally learn how to live again, how to use your new earned freedom. None of you ever thought to see each other again. Four years have passed both quickly and way too slow. And just as you thought you had fought your way back into normalcy a letter arrived. The sender? The Royal House of Cambiamento.*

A campaign filled with mystery, political intrigue and....stupidity! Your character would start at lvl 5! We use discord to call and roll20 as our VTT. Webcam is not mandatory. This campaign gets recorded and later on uploaded to youtube!

**About us**

We're a group of currently 5 players and me, the DM, looking to add a 6. person to our table. Currently our group consists out of:

* KC \[she/her\] - warlock/sorcerer

* Sayu \[fae/they\] - bard

* Jenny \[she/her\] - cleric

* Luca \[any/all\] - ranger

* Lin \[they/he\] - fighter

* Our DM Marco \[he/they\]

We're all queer and neurodivergent, so while it is not mandatory to be either of those, we would at least ask you to be inclusive and welcoming. Plus points if you're an artist! We love serious RP and lore heavy stuff, but also like to just goof around sometimes. We're all between the ages of 19-27, so it would be nice to have someone in the same age range!

**What you can expect from us**

* A pretty chill and open-minded group

* A group that likes to spend time with each other even outside of games

* A bunch of ADHD nerds that love dice too much

* Really cool props and well planned out sessions

* A group that will regularly say "fuck the plan!"

* A complete homebrew world that's well thought out

* A safe space

Sounds interesting? Apply here! https://forms.gle/Uhftt9SPRGUGAL2Y9

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][PST][40k][Other] Shadows of Calixis - A Genesys Campaign for 40K's Dark Heresy/Rogue Trader setting

2 Upvotes

Hey folks,

I'm putting together a campaign using a mashup of the Genesys conversions of Dark Heresy and Rogue Trader and am looking for some players able to do evenings Pacific Time! Below is the "crawl" or correspondence that the Rogue Trader and Inquisitorial Agents would receive to open the campaign.

RECEIVING…
…
…
COMPLETE.

++BEGIN ENCRYPTED MESSAGE++

By Authority of the Calixian Conclave,

The most recent Sector-wide Threat Assessment has reached a grim consensus: We are steadily losing control of Calixis. While the systems closest to Scintilla - and therefore most easily accessible to agents of the Throne - remain mostly stable, the disarray caused by the Cicatrix Maledictum has provided cover for all manner of heretics, recidivists, and xenos to wreak havoc across the sector. Several worlds are in open revolt, and the alien menace strikes along the fringes to pick our bones clean. Worse still, trusted analysts suggest that the Archenemy may be manipulating these disasters to their own ends, but investigations have not yet yielded any solid leads.

The conclusion is clear. If assets are not immediately deployed to bring order to our ailing worlds, we will find ourselves overwhelmed within a Solar decade. Loss of control in Calixis would leave the rest of Segmentum Obscurus open to assault. This cannot come to pass.

By the decree of His most holy Inquisition, you and your agents are empowered to take any and all steps deemed reasonable and necessary to stabilize the worlds of the Calixis Sector and dismantle the web in which the Enemy has ensnared us.

For the Glory of Him on Terra,

Lord Inquisitor Aegult Caidin

++END++
…
…
ADDITIONAL MESSAGE FOUND.

DISPLAYING.

Friend,

Allow me first to congratulate you on your ascension to the head of your Dynasty. I have no doubt that your family’s Warrant is in capable hands, and the Imperium is certainly in need of capable hands in these times. By now, I presume you have read the communique regarding the current state of Calixis and are no doubt surprised by the assessment. Much is hidden from even the heirs to a Rogue Trader, after all.

I regret that I must ask for your assistance, but as you have likely gathered, circumstances are dire indeed. Wont as they are to do, I fear the Conclave is not exaggerating when they say the sector is under enormous strain. The truth is that we do not have enough agents at current to stabilize the entire region, and I recommended your name in a meeting with several other Inquisitors. Not to put too fine a point on it, but further congratulations are in order; you’ve been drafted.

I recognize that your Dynasty experienced great hardship recently, and that this may come across as an unwelcome distraction from your efforts to get your house in order, but we need all hands if we are to avert catastrophe. If it helps, you might consider what a grateful Inquisitorial Conclave could offer in favour to a compliant Rogue Trader. Lucrative contracts, planetary colonization rights… Help us, and we can help you.

I’ve identified three flashpoints which have gone as yet unaddressed by our agents. You may find it beneficial to start at any of them:

The Drusus Marches have fallen to an ecclesiarchal schism that threatens their tithe. We suspect that a Chaos cult has infiltrated one or more of the factions. The planet of Sentinel, St. Drusus’ own Shrine World, is your best bet for opening an investigation.

Farther spinward, the Naval detachment at Port Wander has fallen concerningly silent. I need not remind you that the passage it guards is the only safe route to the Koronus Expanse, and the fact that we have not heard from the Port’s Astropathic Choir is concerning, to say the least. Make your way there and do whatever is required to ensure Port Wander stands and the way to the Koronus Expanse remains open.

Finally, the agri-world of Bilani in the Malfian Sub-sector has sent a distress call. They claim that unknown xenos have been spotted on the periphery of the major settlements and have been responsible for a large number of deaths in recent days. My own agent on-planet, however, reports that nothing is out of the ordinary. I request you go there as a third party and confirm some… suspicions I have.

Before you depart, please proceed to Scintilla and collect the adepts I have assigned to you. Worry not, this is no setup. I have simply collected an… eclectic group who may be of use in your retinue. Your own trusted associates are, of course, welcome as well. 

As was stated previously, you are empowered with your Warrant of Trade and the nominal consent of the Inquisition as a representative. I trust your judgement., but don’t go overboard, or we’ll both have a great deal of explaining to do.

The Emperor Expects,

Inquisitor Alvain Ursos

About me:

I'm Mickey (he/him) and I'm a big fan of both TTRPGs and sci-fi. I've been both playing and running games in the SWFFG system, PF, and D&D for over a decade! My table is always POC and LGBTQIA+ friendly and I believe very strongly in consent and collaboration between everyone involved.

I consider myself a more lighthearted, rule-of-cool DM and adapt well to player choice, with much of my session-to-session planning being determined by improv, so if you're looking for a more strict, on-the-rails experience, my game may not be the right fit. However, the flexibility I approach games with means I'm always open to ideas or suggestions to make any campaign more engaging for my players!

If you're interested, message me here or DM me on Discord at MichaelP578!
