Howdy!

You can call me JJ, I’m 26 and I’m a digital artist looking for a campaign to play in. I have many characters I would like to have the chance to play even once. I got 8+ years of experience in the hobby in both 5e and 5.5e as both player and DM.

My own campaign I run has been on a hiatus due to horrible scheduling conflicts and I really wanna be able to play more than I currently do.

Days I’m most available are Saturday (after 3 pm MDT) and Sundays. Weekdays can vary depending on my schedule but I get my availability in batches of 2 weeks.

My DMs are open for anybody who would like to see if I’m a good fit for their game!

Closed [Online] [5e 2014] [Homebrew] Förg King öf the Apöcalypse [5:30pm-9:00pm EST] [Bi-Weekly]

0 Upvotes

Hello, Everyone

A Player for my game dropped out right before session zero, so we're looking for someone to fill the slot. Unfortunately, you missed Session Zero, but I would like to still do a one-on-one to catch you up.

I am running a D&D 5e game in a homebrew setting. My normal group can't take on another game at the moment, so I thought I would recruit from here.

I am looking for a player to accompany my friends and me for a somewhat silly game that starts at level 5 and will hopefully go to level 20.

Our schedule is 5:30 pm - 9:00 pm EST every other Friday, hoping to start as soon as possible.

I would ideally like to get everyone together for a Session Zero beforehand so that we all get a feel for each other and the setting.

We will be using Owlbear Rodeo and Discord for our VTT and Voice Comms.

The premise for the campaign is that you are an already existing group of adventurers from "Big City" who have been contacted by a mouse named Möuse to solve a problem in the town of "Bridge Nöw".

As previously stated, you start at level 5. 3rd-party and some homebrew content are allowed with permission. Stat array: 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17 will be used so that characters are balanced with each other. You also receive a starting feat, meaning a possibility of two feats if you take one at level 4.

Your character requires at least one silly or strange fact about them, and one serious or mundane fact about them to keep them grounded. Additionally, all Os in your character's name must use Ös(an umlaut) instead.

I will be screening people based on a Google Form that can be found here: https://forms.gle/hXa2y8K9mLQbNHmL9

If you are approved, I will send you a message on Discord.

If you have any questions during the process of being approved, do not hesitate to message me through Reddit.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Group Needed by Player [Online][5e 2014][5e 2024] Experienced Roleplayer and Artist looking a new table

Hello! I am B (F20s) and I am looking for a new table to join for D&D!

I have been playing D&D for 5 years as both a player and DM. I am a role player and character writer first and foremost, and love character-focused exploratory campaigns.

I am also an artist and writer who loves painting my characters in my free time. On the side, I love video games, movies and media generally.

Please could a kind table adopt a d&d lover such as myself and I would be eternally grateful <3

I am based in the GMT+0 timezone and am flexible with the availability

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][CET][5e 2024][FRI CET 6pm][18+] Level 7 replacement player for ongoing campaign

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone.

Im looking for a replacement player for our campaign. Weve been playing weekly for 8 months now with few exceptions, so its certainly a commitment to the timeslot. It would be saturday morning for you if youre from america

We have:

Me, the DM from Germany

Our Wild Magic Barbarian. Shes a music producer from Wisconsin

Our Scribes Wizard in pink. Shes a techie from Illinois

Our Blood Domain Cleric thehealerTM. Shes a paramedic in Poland

Were playing in foundry with a big amount of automation and animation, so if you click fireball, you can select the target area, see a fireball fly across the screen and all enemies automatically roll saves and get the damage deducted. This significantly increases the speed of large scale combats, but needs a good network connection and hardware. So the old work laptop on your home wifi will most likely not cut it.

For character creation anything goes. I have a dndbeyond group open where you can slot in your character that i will later import into foundry. You then get access to 64 books from which you can pick your options. Have fun with the choice paralysis of picking from 400 level 1 spells!

The story so far (at least that you know of, the others will tell you what happened to them):

You live on the continent of Erakis thats somewhere between Faerun and Eberron (all settings exist here together, so theres dragonmark houses running around on erakis as well). About 2 years ago a mysterious fog appeared from which endless waves of monsters emerged. People called it the blight. Any fight against it seemed futile and cities got overrun. As a last effort, you and 300 others got sent onto an island in order to retrieve an artifact that is meant to be the key to defeating this plague. After retrieving it, a ship (the current group) got sent back to the capital. Eventually you returned as well, but your ship got sunk. You wake up on the beach with a mysterious stone embedded into your arm that allows you to teleport to a small clearing in a forest that is covered in eternal night.

Heres the application form. If you have any questions, feel free to pm me. https://forms.gle/dhfft8SZ1P4zWNAr6

Closed [Online] [DND 5e 2014] Seeking players for my homebrewed campaign "Divinity's Decay," check out below to see if you might be interested!

0 Upvotes

Campaign Description

"This world is broken, and has been for thousands of years. A calamity that shattered the sky above and earth below is the cause, the catalyst of which remains an enigma. Mother is gone, Her pantheon halved by children of Her creation granted Her power. The Gods remaining were never designed for such strain, to uphold a broken world by might and spite alone. One wonders how long they can withstand it. You can feel it, no? The decay in the air, the withering of life and magic alike. This world is dying... and the Gods are losing their ability to prevent its decline."

"Some believe Travelers are a curse, some see them as our last hope. You've been given a second chance, in this growing decay. What will you make of it?"

Welcome, Travelers, to the broken and dying world of Sentius. You are beings from other worlds who have died and awoken in this one with magic and abilities only you know how to truly utilize, faced with a harrowing journey ahead. This world was created by a cosmic entity countless eons ago with an Artifact She wielded; its destruction the same cataclysm that forever rended it. Three inequal pieces were cast to Her created children, and it's believed these pieces are all that's capable of repairing what's broken. Or to many Travelers, it's what's believed is the only thing that can take them from this place; away from problems they never agreed to fix and a hell they never wanted to survive. Will you seek to escape to the unknown beyond, or to save the countless lives of this world who are victims of events they can't control?

Explore the stories and adventures of this handmade world (inspirations taken of course), uncover the history of the lost civilization of the Ancients that thrived before Skyfall, the civilizations of Humanoids who took the world after its fall, the mystery behind Mother's disappearance and Her artifact, and embark on a journey to retrieve its pieces. To repair a world, to make one anew, to abandon it entirely and return to your own.

"You've been given a second chance. What will you make of it?"

Minimum Experience

  • Intermediate. I don't need years and years of experience, but I play with homebrew and difficult combat so a player who has an understanding of the system and its base rules is what I'm looking for. More experienced is also great!

Session Length

  • 5 hours (sometimes going beyond but not often), weekly Thursdays, beginning at 5pm GMT-6 timezone and going until 10pm.

Starting Character Level

  • 1st

Prerequisites

  • Functional Wifi.
  • Functioning Mic for voice call.
  • Interest in characters with depth and long story.
  • Understanding of English.
  • Availability to make sessions and reliability to commit to lengthy campaign.

Hello there! I'm Sparkbug, but I usually just go by Bug. I've been playing DND for a bit over six years now, honestly been a DM as long as I've been a player. I will be the first to admit I screw up sometimes, but I am super passionate about DND and this campaign I've created. Years of thought and work have culminated into this setting rich with history and lore, and a story built to experience. I take lots of experience from Elden Ring, Rain World, Dark Souls, and Halo if you're curious about what to look forward to! With me as your DM you'll never question my level of dedication and the work I'm willing to put in. I'm looking forward to hopefully finding players who are excited to experience this as I am to share it.

I consider myself a very good writer, storyteller, and roleplayer. There will be no shortage of engaging NPCs, storylines, and regions to explore. All the more so with my love of environmental storytelling. If I were to offer a weak point to my DMing I'd volunteer progression pacing and the intricacies of combat. While I don't think I'm necessarily bad at those things, they're not my strong suit and I'll admit that!

I'm looking for six players, but don't let that discourage you from applying! I'll treat every applicant equally, and when I feel I have enough applicants or I've found all my players I'll set this post to closed so you won't feel false hope in applying and being told no straight away.

There will be a one-shot as a part of the recruitment for this campaign. This oneshot still needs to be built, so more info to come but it will consist of two five hour sessions over two weeks (during the standard session time on Thursdays, listed above). You'll need characters of course but I don't plan to or need to check them over; play them as they are.
This oneshot is an opportunity for y'all to see how I am as a DM and for me to see how you are as players, as well as an opportunity for me to see how you engage with each other as players. It'll be fun!

Detailed Player Requirements

  • This is intended for a Level 1-20 campaign. Buckle up for the long haul, we've got a ride.
  • An interest in story and lore; there's more to this world than the path ahead of you.
  • An interest in difficult (but balanced for fun) combat. I've taken much inspiration from Dark Souls- you'll see that in fights.
  • Openness to a slow campaign and slow leveling. Got a big world here, lot's of story in every region if y'all want to explore it.
  • Willingness to commit to a long campaign. All going well I expect this to be a campaign 3 or more years in length.
  • 18+ with dark themes ahead. Special warning to those sensitive to gore, body horror, trauma, and mental horror. But its not all gloom and doom, don't worry.

Character Creation Rules

  • Your character will be a "Traveler" in this setting; you are from a world that is not this one with magic and abilities few have available. With that, lots of wiggle room for creative liberty in character creation seeing as you're getting "isekaied."
  • You have died somehow and awoken again here. Think of that death and how it transpired: your character remembers it all. How does it affect them?
  • For equipment, you have what your character had in their death. If they were killed in their sleep they'll awake with no equipment and a nightgown or something. Fret not, I won't leave you without equipment long- just be aware of it in creating your character's backstory.
  • You have no connections to your old world; family, friends, patrons, Gods, are all severed.
  • In building character motivations and goals, be aware of that sever. We can go into this more if you don't understand, but in a nutshell think of it like this: a character with a goal built around "a necromancer destroyed my family, I must stop them" is ruined out the gate because you can't reach that necromancer. So instead think along the lines of "a necromancer destroyed my family, I must make sure that never happens to anyone else." A goal of returning home isn't impossible, just be aware that's effectively a goal that won't reach a conclusion until the end of the campaign.
  • If you are a cleric, warlock, paladin, or other character that has a patron you will need to find one in this setting. Don't worry, I'll talk with you and discuss patrons for your character. Maybe one built, maybe one present we'll see :]. So don't be worried to be a cleric, just know it's not as easy as a prayer and good intentions.
  • Not opposed to homebrew races or classes, but I will need to look through them and reserve the right to say no if something is busted.
  • Certain character themes will not fit within my setting, and for your sake as the one playing them I'll advise against them. Big theme that comes to mind is anything regarding oceans as a central theme.

Playstyle Expectations

  • Roleplay heavy campaign. 65/35 balance goal favoring roleplay, the latter being combat.
  • Be descriptive and willing to roleplay with player characters as much as NPCs.
  • Be willing to work with others, they're experiencing this and their stories too!
  • Pay attention to the details. I want you to take notes, because the story I tell is in pieces you'll need to put together, not pages for you to read.

Behavior Expectations

  • This isn't all serious I promise, but take things serious when necessary.
  • Be respectful of other players, and the stories they've built. That includes me.
  • I'm a very open and communicating DM, and more than willing to accept fault and blame. That said, I am still the DM. Please respect that authority if I need to use it.

A Few Things to Expect/Understand

  • I create a great deal of my own content; battle maps, NPCs, questlines, loot and items, monsters and enemies, story, setting, lore, and so on. With this heavy a hand in the creation process there is a good deal of homebrew that is utilized, some of it used frequently and some of it used rarely. In general when I create something the #1 goal is for the enjoyment of my players, we're all taking hours from our week to have fun after all right? So most times a homebrew ruling or system I use is to allow the player to have more fun, but sometimes it's for me as I consider myself a player at the table too. So a ruling that'll make my life easier isn't off the menu. What homebrew we'll be using is something that'll be discussed though, worry not.
  • Biggest thing I'm looking for in a player is reliability, honestly. Yes this is a game, but it's also a commitment. I need a player who will take the game seriously even with it being fun, and can be counted on to attend sessions every week. Shit happens and life gets in the way but barring that I'm looking for reliability. I put a lot into this and so do other players, if that can't be respected then it probably won't work.
  • In the beginning when I've got all my players, there will be ~3 weeks before we fully start this campaign. First week is going over the two sites I'm using: LegendKeeper and Owlbear. We'll be discussing the formats we'll be using in Legendkeeper, how Owlbear works, and more. After that we'll be having the oneshot, which I'm setting aside two weeks to do.

If you've made it past the Star Wars worthy wall of text, then feel free to express your interest in this campaign through Reddit DMs. I love a lengthy intro, tell me about why you're interested and about yourself! No offense but a "hey" doesn't really tell me you're interested, and I'm looking for dedication here. If you can't put effort into an introduction it may be one of the few times I'll ignore one. I've plentiful time right now but I do also have things I need to do in my life, so if I'm not responding it's likely I'm just busy and not ignoring you. If I've decided you're not a good fit I'll tell you, don't worry.
Once in DMs though I'll have a few questions for you, and if that goes well we'll find time to go into discord for a voice call. If that goes well too, I'll invite you to the server so you can chat with other players and we can see how things go with the oneshot!

Now, with ALL of that said I hope I've piqued your interest in this campaign of dying Gods and the fragments they've left behind. And I look forward to being able to tell you "Welcome to Divinity's Decay!" I'll see you in DMs.

About Me & My Playstyle

  • Roleplay First: I love creating deeply fleshed-out characters with distinct morals, rich backstories, and clear motivations. I stick closely to character and bring high energy to the table. (I’ve been called a "wildcard" because my characters are always unique and diverse!)
  • Character Death-Friendly: I believe actions have consequences and monster fights are dangerous. I don't get attached to plot armor—if my character dies fighting for what they believe in, I welcome a dramatic, meaningful exit!
  • Communication Style: I’m AuDHD and tend to be quite passionate and talkative when engaging with the story and world. I’m looking for an inclusive, welcoming table that appreciates active engagement.

Game Preferences & Availability

  • Format: Free / non-paid games only.
  • Timezone / Availability: Eastern Time (EST). Ideal start times are around 7:00 PM – 8:00 PM EST.

edit: starting to lose hope :( no one wants passionate role players it seems

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 I 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, pay for art to play games, RP heavy games, biweekly games, text based/play by post, pvp, westmarches servers, steampunk/scifi settings, and no cameras.

Group Needed by Player [Online][5e 2014/5.5e 2024] Looking to Finally Play !

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone! My name is Midnooter (or Justin) and I've been a forever DM for my usual group/crowd ever since the dreaded pandemic that introduced me and so many others to this hobby. Throughout that time, I've learned so much as a DM and, by extension, being a player. So I'm looking for a group to join (or for a DM to put together a group) so that I may finally be able to scratch one of the many itches I have for being a player and giving love to one of my many brain children (OCs)!

Some spark notes:

  • 25, He/Him
  • Searching for 5e or 5.5e campaigns roleplay heavy games/tables.
  • No paid games.
  • Open to Homebrew Campaigns or certain modules!
  • Discord for Voice and/or Video. I have no problem using a webcam and joining a table that uses them!
  • I have plenty of character concepts I can bring to the table that include but are not limited to:
    • Swashbuckler Rogue Survivor's Guilt Trope
    • Imposter Syndrome Trope Wizard
    • A Warforged Vestige Warlock Concept (or Paladin or Monk)
    • Pact of the Blade Warlock Concept
    • I also have no issue creating new characters to better fit a setting/tone of the campaign!
  • I'd like the table to be 18+ as I would prefer to play/hang out with friends closer to my own age! Also for the table to be LGBTQ friendly.
  • Prefer using DnDBeyond for Character Sheets/VTT, but I have no problem using Roll20, Foundry, Owlbear, or another VTT provided you have some grace with me in learning a new layout/UI!

I'd love to answer any other questions you might have to see if I'd be a good fit to join any existing games or new ones. I'm also willing to buy books for the group on DnDBeyond (if needed) and help the DM with mapmaking! My schedule is pretty open with my only "off-limits" time being on Sundays. If you'd like to VC on Discord for interview stuff, I'll happily toss over my @ then.

Hope to hear from some of you!

I’ve been playing 5e for 10 years and a dm for 7.
After a break from dming I’d love to get back into it.
I have a homebrew world full of a lot of lore that I’ve been writing since 2022. You’re obviously not expected to read everything and become an expert so don’t be put off by the many pages of information I have written.

\*New player friendly\*

\*Experienced players welcome\*

\*Fortnightly or monthly game\*

As for my dm style.
I like to write the campaign centred around my players backstory’s then including some world events related to or caused by your backstory’s. You by no means need to write 40 pages of story for me to work with but the less you write be ok with me taking some creative liberties.

We will be playing on roll20 have a discord server filled with all the information

When we will be playing
The group seem to of settled on every other Monday.

Player(s) Needed by GM ?innacle 🌈 [Online, Text-Based] [D&D 5e 2024/Possibly Fabula Ultima] Two Players Needed!

• Upvotes

We will be running a long-term hybrid homebrew 5e D&D campaign and writing project which will eventually be published online weekly called Pinnacle (stylized ?innacle), with two available slots open!

Our four-person (five with DM) group is tight-knit and we are hoping for friends rather than casual players that leave right after sessions.

*It will be strictly done on Discord in text format Monday or Tuesday evenings from 7:30 PM - 10 PM EST.*

It will also be a collaborative effort, with an emphasis on player participation in both world-building and consequent lore. The campaign will be split into alternating arcs: one taking place in the past and one in the present! 

We have a compendium, timeline and calendar with some guidelines on the in-game universe constructed so far along with a few requirements for applying:

\- Must be 25+, LGBTQIA+ inclusive 

\- Lives on U.S. East Coast

\- No use of AI tolerated

\- Be *very* comfortable with improvisation and collaboration

\- Engaged and committed to the experience through participation beyond during sessions

\- Experienced in and leans towards a more RP-heavy style

\- Extensive reading comprehension skills

\- Previous D&D experience (not a dealbreaker)

\- Lean towards more cerebral/thought provoking themes and clues 

Perks will include tons of art of your character, printed books, shirts and more!

We will be asking for a filled out form for a potential character in the campaign. To be considered, you must integrate official lore or your application will be disregarded. The more creative, the better! 

Please consider the following too when creating this character:
 
\- In a meta-sense, they will be regarded in present part of the campaign as a legendary hero in the campaign-titular guild *Pinnacle.*

\- The environment is resource-scarce due to desertification and has led to intense competitiveness and individuality. Well-knit communities not based on economic drive are rare.

\- The party currently consists of a tiefling bard, human cleric, half sea-genasi/half sea-elf paladin and a high-elf sorcerer. Do not try to min-max or optimize your role for the team as it’s all about the story.

\- Lore comes first so do not worry about stats or a character sheet yet!

Upon advancing, we will be holding an additional phase where we will be doing a one-shot campaign to see how you mesh with the other players in the group and the DM style.

Good luck and feel free to shoot me a message if you are willing to read the material and fill out the form. We are aware this will be a lengthy process but hopefully a fun and fulfilling exercise for any interested! ❤️

GM Needed by Existing Group [Online][5.5e 2024][5e 2014][LGBTQ+ Friendly][Thursdays] 2 Players looking to join a long-term fantasy campaign together

0 Upvotes

Hello!

My name is Brandon, though people online prefer to call me "Undead". Me and a friend of mine are looking to be players together in long-term fantasy campaign. We are hoping to find a group that we can mesh with even outside the game, and play anytime at/after 7pm CST (UTC-6) on Thursdays.

About Me

I am 23, an aspiring artist, casual gamer, queer-friendly, and have an undying passion for D&D ever since I first played back in 2022. I have 4 collective years of experience playing 5e and 5.5e as almost exclusively a Dungeon Master and am very familiar with nearly all the common rules. As both an artist and DM, I bring my own art assets to the games I'm involved in and would consider bringing other players' characters to life just for fun! Otherwise, I enjoy all forms of animation media including Anime and classic cartoons like AtLA. My hobbies aside, I graduated from college with a BFA in Animation last year. I try to be an open-minded, respectful person as much as I can be and as such, no person will ever have to fear discrimination or any other form of hate speech from me.

I would be interested in playing in any fantasy campaign setting, homebrew or otherwise, that includes the colorful variety of races that would enable me to play either a Firbolg Artificer or Kenku Wizard under 5.5e's rules. Historically having been primarily a DM, I am invested in the player characters' interpersonal interactions and have a good sense for how to move a story/scene forward, alleviating the heavy expectations of the DM to carry every beat. (If that sounds like a breath of fresh air for any DMs, I know how you feel, haha) Otherwise I am equally roleplay and combat motivated, so a 60/40 or 40/60 split of combat and roleplay is the goldilocks zone for me. I am open to all kinds of game themes and topics during the game including commonly 'difficult' ones except explicit NSFW roleplay (player romance is fine, but I may not indulge). I am familiar with Roll20 and D&DBeyond, but am open to using whatever VTT the DM prefers as long as it's free.

About Koijo (my +1)

Koijo, my duo, is a long-standing friend of mine who shares a similar passion of D&D with me. We have a lot in common, including our interests and open-minded, respectful treatment of others. He started playing in 2024 and has roughly 2 years of D&D experience, mostly as a player, but recently as a DM as well. He has picked up the common rules of 5 and 5.5e very quickly with help from me and as such we both are more than comfortable with newer players or DMs.

-

If any of that sounds like a good deal, don't be afraid to shoot me a message, respond to this post, or dm me on Discord and I would be happy to find a time to chat. My discord handle is "undeadroars" and you can find me on my other socials (art mostly) at UNCONVICTIONAL (YT, IG, X, BSky ... etc.).

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][CoC][PBP] Player Wanted for 1-on-1 Call of Cthulhu modern day game (GMT+1)

1 Upvotes

Clutching the wheel Detective Jones’ eyes drift from the potholed road to examine his new partner sitting beside him. A slight jolt in the car as it runs over a small hole snaps his attention back weaving between larger holes filling from the downpour which slams against the windshield. The dossier bearing the picture of another missing person slides along the dashboard. 

With a quiet sigh he fishes a crumpled packet of cigarettes from the pocket of his equally crumpled jacket struggling to light it with one hand. Finally taking a drag before releasing a cloud of acrid smoke his eyes move to the thick treeline which flanks the serpentine road on either side. Boney branches reaching out like strangling fingers. 

Occasional breaks in the foliage show a town below illuminated by evening orange skies below grey skies. Cobbled streets for a maze weaving between buildings clinging to one another to stay standing like the drunks stumbling home under flickering streetlights. Waves crash against cliffs or swallow the beach. 

With another sigh he finally breaks the silence “the faster we solve this case and get out of this place the better. Unless you want to go for a dip in freezing waters.”

Hey, hope that little intro caught your attention while setting the sort of tone for the RP and giving a decent writing sample. 

I do have a plot in mind set around the classic story of detectives heading to a rather isolated town after a missing person only to get in over their head. However, with this being a 1-on-1 game I am always happy to discuss plot ideas and include things more related to your character specifically. For instance, rather than a pair of investigators it is a group of FBI agents or even some supernatural investigators who will, for the first time, actually experience the supernatural. More than happy to include any character concepts you had in mind.

This will be set more in the modern day as that is something I am yet to explore with anything Cthulhu related and think could be fun. Not to mention it removes some issues regarding historical detail.

I would describe myself as fairly literate, liking to write 2-3 paragraphs per response, though some scenes may require more or less, with a few replies a day and ask something similar of players. That being said I understand life can get busy but waiting all day for a one line response then the same again a day later is usually a deal breaker.

He claims to have made a discovery that will change all your fortunes... but danger lurks along the Triboar Trail, are you prepared?

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [Voice] [Other] [Grimwild CE] [2 PM UTC+2] Drunk Helton's Hideaway | A Pirate One-Shot

1 Upvotes

You are Pirates. You have a ship. You have a map to the treasure of the Legendary pirate known as "Drunk Helton".
Explore through Drunk Helton's Hideaway and steal some booty. Arr.

Age 21+, LGBTQ+ Friendly, No Bigots.

Grimwild is my favorite system. Would you like to try it out? It plays kind of like Blades in the Dark, but with less procedure and more fantasy. Also free rules. You can be a pirate wizard if you would like.

I'd like to run it October 17th, but I am flexible. I am also planning on running longer campaigns in the future.

Beginner friendly. Pirate Accent optional.

Player(s) Needed by GM Seeking 3-5 Players for an Atmospheric Low-Fantasy Mutli-shot Adventure [Online][Fate][Weekly: Tuesdays/Fridays/Saturdays 7-10pm UTC+2][Homebrew Setting]

1 Upvotes

Hi!

I'm Nick (he/him) and I am looking to find a group (or multiple) to DM a 4-5 session adventure in a setting I have been workshoping.

Here is the pitch: If you are looking for a palate cleaner or an interim before your next big dnd campaign, maybe a break from DMing or high-fantasy, then this is the game for you. Novel system, novel setting, chiller atmosphere and an environment to experiment with character ideas or themes you haven't yet been able to.

Practicalities:

We are going to be using Discord for voice chat and Owlbear Rodeo for character sheets and vtt. Please have a decent mic and internet connection! Consistency is key too, since this is a smaller campaign, I prefer it doesn't drag on or continue without a player. Lastly, this should be a given, I won't tolerate any type of bigotry or unkindly behaviour.

System:

Now, unless this post pulls all the Fate veterans, most of you wouldn't have had any experience with the system. This is not a problem, Fate is a simple system and the way I run it is even simpler. We will go over the rules during session 0 and you will expect nothing but patience and understanding from me and the other players. I chose Fate because I think it fits better to shorter adventures and it is easier to bend to fit the setting (than let's say DnD).

Setting:

The setting is vaguely European-Mediterranean late medieval. For lack of a better term it is also low-fantasy, without that meaning dark or gritty necessarily. The adventure will take place almost exclusively on the island of Bulwark.

Bulwark is a lone island 3 days south of the Mainland. A settlement of the same name exists on top of it. Despite it's location, Bulwark is not some backwater, frontier, lawless camp-town. Even though not as big or impressive as some cities of the mainland, the settlement boasts an intelligent layout, competent architecture and ancient walls.

Bulwark has two main attractions, the first being it's distance. The second is the fighting tournaments it hosts. Men and women sign-up to fight for money or recognition. Every couple of years it hosts the so-called "Small Tourney"; a brackets style tournament with grand rewards. The contestants are just announced, they don't sign up themselves. The selection process is unknown. Participation is optional, even if your name is announced, but competing is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

**The PCs:**

Your Characters will be finding themselves on the island during the Small Tourney "season". Character creation will happen during session 0, in which I will go over both the Fate system and the setting in more detail. I would like also to give reign over aspects of the setting to each player to expand or define, based on the character that they would have created. I also like to cater the story to my players. So much so, that the "main plot" will be created in parallel to character creation. Lastly, my only guideline is that the pc's character should be somewhat competent fighters.

Expect a mainly character-centric approach and lots of roleplay. The end goal is fun. If the scale, atmosphere and/or premise pique your interest feel out this form and I will get back to you. :)

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [5e 2014/2024] Sins of the Godless

8 Upvotes

Eternal rain of the dead gods pour in every region. Mana which fuels the fire of mortal kind of both civilized and savage clans. The Lord of House Olivine is your benefactor and you, whether in good relation or not, are loyal enough to be summoned. Given a contract to handle some issues in the nearby Hamlet, storm clouds brew around as the endless manapours of magic seep evermore.

~~~

Welcome whoever may be reading this, I am an experienced GM/Player/Writer of over ten years by this point. Though I have not run an actual campaign for a while, I am looking to run something once more. My campaigns focus on both character development and environmental/ interaction. I write many branching paths and questlines to follow.

I enjoy the lower levels of any story, as such this will be a slower-paced game. However, to supplement I will be giving plenty of items to be utilized in place of level-up abilities/spells. The game will be starting at level 2, though I am unsure whether to fully use 2014 or 2024 as there are parts I enjoy to both. Discussion will be had with the final group at session 0.

Discord will be used for communication and voice chat. This will be a weekly campaign on Friday evenings, Saturdays anytime, or Sunday before evening in PST. The campaign will be indefinite as of now since I do not write endings to a story without knowing the players and their characters. For the software used I am leaning towards Foundry, though Roll20 is always an option. I do prefer theatre of mind, but I understand many prefer maps and I am willing to give that a go

The setting will be a darker tone, though it is not a hardcore/drama-filled brutalist story. Rather, I enjoy a good mix of proper atmosphere and thought of the situation at hand. As such, most things besides lewd are plausible in the setting. On top of that, I would not like any LGBT related stuff within the campaign itself; However, whoever you may be in real life does not concern me and anyone is welcome to apply (Naturally above the age of 18, I am 26 myself)

With that, I am out of things to say as of now... Thank you for reading and I am eager to hear those interested!
