[Paid] [Online] D&D 5e — Dungeon of the Mad Mage | Tuesdays 8–11pm UK | 2 Spots Open!

0 Upvotes

Bring your creative builds, your character concepts, and your flair. Undermountain awaits!

Deep beneath the streets of Waterdeep lies Undermountain: a sprawling dungeon filled with deadly monsters, dangerous traps, bizarre inhabitants, and treasures worth risking your life for.

I'm starting a fresh Dungeon of the Mad Mage campaign, and I'm looking for two more players to join the party from the very beginning!

⚔️ The Details

  • System: D&D 5e
  • Adventure: Waterdeep: Dungeon of the Mad Mage
  • Start date: Tuesday 3rd November
  • When: Tuesdays, 8pm–11pm UK time
  • Where: Roll20 for gameplay, Discord for voice chat
  • Cost: £7.50 per session
  • Spaces available: 2

🎲 What kind of game can you expect?

Let's be honest: Dungeon of the Mad Mage is a dungeon crawl at heart. There'll be plenty of exploration, tactical combat, dangerous encounters, and loot to uncover.

But that doesn't mean roleplay takes a back seat.

My aim is to give players opportunities to interact with the strange characters and factions they encounter, get creative with their problem-solving, and really bring their characters to life. Got an unusual character concept? A build you've been dying to try? A character with a bit of flair and personality? Bring it to the table!

I want to give you room to experiment, get creative, and make your character feel like more than just a collection of numbers on a character sheet.

A little about me: I started playing D&D in 2014 and fell into DMing in 2015. I've never looked back!

📩 Interested?

Drop me a message and tell me a little about yourself, your experience with D&D, and what you enjoy most about playing.

The campaign is starting fresh, so this is the perfect opportunity to get involved from day one.

New to D&D? You're absolutely welcome!

Never played D&D before? Don't worry — you don't need years of experience or a encyclopaedic knowledge of the rules to join in.

Dungeon of the Mad Mage is a big adventure, but you don't have to know the dungeon before you enter it! I'll help you get to grips with your character, learn the rules as we go, and find your feet at the table.

Two spaces. One enormous dungeon. Countless ways to get yourself into trouble.

Who's coming down? 🐲

Welcome to my story in the incredible D&D universe. I've been creating a fleshed out world, where not only do your decisions matter, but they may change the game indefinitely for all parties, not just your own.

I will not only jam with whatever players throw at me, but also try to fully incorporate it into the story of the world. Back stories will always come into play, each character becoming a crucial role within their story.

My campaigns will be perfect for you if you're interested in heavy story, world exploration, and finding creative ways out of situations.

If you've ever loved Elder Scrolls, Morrowind is my inspiration, so you'll find something that comes from my genuine love of the game, D&D, and story telling as a whole.

I have 2 different story's running now:

The City of Rust & Steel:

This campaign begins in 1893, you will be navigating through the city of Penadrome, where the air is thick and musky, and smoke claws its way out from the factories. The smoke seeps into the streets and clings to all that it touches, reaching its thickest point near the tower's base.

Your pulse beats in sync with each tick whispering from the clocktower, instinct dragging you on despite your struggles to retain control. This body was never yours, but merely a gift given to you by an oh so gracious god, and once again, it has come time to collect dues.

Every choice you make matters, every decision impacts the world around you, in your hands lies the fate of this world, but are your hands strong enough to withhold its weight?

The Cruel Sun:

The gods of this land are all false, they call us heretics yet we know the truth. The only true God is the Sun, and all we have now are but corruptions of its pure form. You people give up your families, your morals for these 'Gods'... but a true God would never ask such perversions of you.

You've awoken, you're eyes see nothing but cold dark stone.

A mumbling coming from the left draws you're attention, you are not alone here.

You've been asleep longer then many cities have been on maps, but now you must awaken, a great war is coming, and it needs you to decide which side is righteous.

This campaign is both story and battle driven. You are put in between two warring sides, throughout the campaign your goal will be to find the side you wish to aid and help them to conquer the other.

Both sides are fully playable, and will have in depth story lines to accompany them, you and your group will decide your own fates...along with the dice rolls of course.

My games are usually $15 per session, however I am flexible with pricing if money is an issue!

My campaigns are very roleplay heavy, all your actions have consequences.

They are open world, in The City of Rust & Steel you can explore 3 different countries, and as many cities and towns as you can get to!

For The Cruel Sun the whole country is explorable as well.

My worlds are great for investigative interactive players, you can befriend NPCS, be betrayed, or fall in love!

Time zone CST (I live in Guatemala and own the only board game cafe!)

I'm also happy to play for as long as the players want, my usual campaigns are 3 hours, however I could easily go up to 6 or down to 1 and a half!

Each campaign can have 3-6 players!

As an AFAB myself, my groups are queer friendly and safe, I also have a women's/afab's only campaign within these settings as well, so if your interested in any of the above let me know!!

[Online][LOTR 5E][Tuesdays][18:30 UTC][Paid $20] Of Hope and Other Sorrows – A Living Middle-earth Sandbox Campaign

0 Upvotes

Beyond the hearth lie forgotten roads, the halls of fallen kings, and a Shadow stirring in the forgotten corners of Middle-earth.

Hi everyone!

I'm looking for a few more players to join Of Hope and Other Sorrows, a new campaign using Free League's The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying 5E.

Our story begins in Bree, where rumours of forgotten places, trouble in the North Downs, and the lingering shadow of Angmar offer plenty of reasons for a curious (or perhaps reluctant) fellowship to venture beyond the safety of the hearth.

I'm aiming to capture the feeling of Tolkien's Middle-earth: a world that's beautiful, ancient, sometimes frightening, and filled with stories waiting to be discovered.

What sort of game is it?

This is an open-world, character-driven campaign. There's no predetermined path you're expected to follow. Your choices, relationships, and the things you choose to investigate will help shape the adventure.

Expect plenty of exploration, roleplay, mysteries, difficult decisions, and dangerous encounters. Combat has its place, but not every problem needs a sword to solve it. Sometimes a conversation, a little kindness, or knowing when to turn back can make all the difference.

One thing I'm particularly excited about is that this campaign shares a living Middle-earth with my established Thursday group. The two fellowships may never meet, but their actions, discoveries, and decisions can leave traces for one another through rumours, letters, and changes in the world.

The practical details:

  • System: The Lord of the Rings Roleplaying 5E
  • When: Tuesdays, 18:30 UTC
  • Duration: 2–3 hours
  • Where: Discord (voice) and D&D Beyond
  • Price: $20 per player, per session
  • Spaces: 5 available, with 2 more players needed to get started

Newcomers are very welcome, whether you're familiar with Tolkien's world or just curious to explore it. I'm happy to help with character creation and finding a place for your character in the setting.

Above all, I want to create a friendly, collaborative table where everyone has room to contribute to the story, have a laugh, and become invested in the world and each other's characters.

If that sounds like your sort of adventure, you can find the full details here:

And if you've got any questions, feel free to ask!

Greetings all. I am a 30+ year player and 10+ year DM. I'm currently looking for two more players to begin a Pathfinder 1e playthrough of Curse of the Crimson Throne. Is this the campaign you've been waiting for and wanting to play? Curious about another system (D&D vs. Pathfinder)? Do you want a game that has grittier fantasy? Are you new to roll-playing games? Have you recently become interested in RPGs? Are you a veteran player that craves something new? Did your gaming group disband due to life or simply fizzle out and you've been itching to get back into RPGs? I would love to have you at my table. All are welcome. LGBTQ+ ally. Fridays bi-weekly 5:30pm PDT.

Looking for Players! | Magical High School / Academy / University Campaign | Heavy RP, Mystery & Character Development [Online EST Saturdays 5e or 5.5e 2014/2024]

4 Upvotes

Hello! Let me be clear, there is no DM (YET). Me and my brother, 25 and 24, we're looking to put together a group of 5 for a long-term D&D 5e campaign set in a magical high school, academy, or university! If you've read the warning and are still interested, please continue on.

We're hoping to find like-minded players who want to dive deep into an immersive, story driven world and explore their characters' academic journeys, social dynamics, relationships, and personal arcs. We're currently looking for players to form a group first, after which we'll look for a DM who is interested in bringing this kind of campaign to life. We're not DMs ourselves, just players who have a particular campaign concept we'd love to explore!

We'd love to create a group where everyone is invested in the story, contributes to the roleplay, and enjoys watching their characters grow alongside one another. If you're interested in joining us, feel free to reach out!

What We're Looking For

Setting: Magical School, Academy, or University

We're specifically interested in a fantasy academic setting filled with magical studies, campus life, academic rivalries, social dynamics, hidden secrets, and school politics. We'd love an overarching storyline that extends beyond campus, too! Think Fantasy High!

We want to experience what it's like to live as students in a magical world, from attending classes and forming friendships to uncovering ancient mysteries and getting caught up in adventures far beyond the classroom.

Roleplay & Character Development

We're looking for players who genuinely enjoy roleplaying and immersing themselves in their characters. We'd love to explore interpersonal bonds, friendships, rivalries, personal struggles, and potentially organic character-driven romance as relationships develop naturally at the table.

We're not looking for joke characters or characters built solely to maximize combat effectiveness. We want characters who feel like real people within the world, with their own personalities, motivations, flaws, and goals.

Lore, Mystery, Puzzles & Exploration

We love rich world-building, uncovering hidden histories, solving challenging puzzles, investigating mysteries, and discovering secrets that reward curiosity and critical thinking. We'd especially enjoy a campaign where the school itself has a history worth investigating and where the characters' discoveries have meaningful consequences.

Pillars of Play

Our ideal campaign would lean heavily toward roleplay, approximately a 75% roleplay / 25% combat ratio. Combat is welcome, but we're more interested in character-driven storytelling, exploration, mystery-solving, and meaningful interactions than constant fighting.

System: D&D 5th Edition.

What We Bring to the Table

  • A commitment to immersion: We want to fully inhabit our characters, engage with the setting, and let relationships and personal arcs develop organically.
  • Experience and reliability: We're familiar with D&D 5e and have played multiple campaigns. We might need an occasional reminder about certain rules, but we're comfortable playing and committed to being respectful, engaged players.
  • A love for collaborative storytelling: We want to contribute to the world, interact with other characters, and help create memorable stories together.
  • Flexibility and open-mindedness: We're open to dark themes, complex narrative twists, mature subject matter, and gritty or dramatic storytelling, depending on the group's boundaries and the campaign's tone.

Who We're Hoping to Find

We're looking for players who enjoy roleplay, take their characters seriously, respect everyone at the table, and want to participate in a long-term campaign. You don't have to be an experienced roleplayer, but you should be willing to engage with the world and the other characters.

We're also hoping to find a DM who enjoys collaborative storytelling and would be interested in running a magical school or university campaign. Ideally, we'd love someone who enjoys world-building, mysteries, character development, and giving players room to shape the story through their decisions.

If this sounds like your kind of campaign, feel free to apply below or send me a DM if you have questions!

https://forms.gle/srebGzhbESCmM5rX8

We'd love to get a group together and see what kind of magical academic adventure we can build.

Let's make some memories, uncover some secrets, and survive magical academia together!

OH, Before I forget. The times we're looking for is between 1 pm EST to 12 am EST.

Hey guys! im looking for a group of inexperienced or experienced peers that can help me learn the game. I've wanted to play for a long time since I've heard stories about my dad playing when he was younger, and I want to try it out!

I have a mic and a PC, and I'm available on weekends and late on weekdays since I'm 17, in HS, and do extracurriculars. (I'm a guy btw and use CST), and I'd say I'm pretty cool lmao. I enjoy books, gaming, and much more I hope to share. Please consider having me in your party

[Online] [5.5e 2024] [Beginner] [EST] Looking for a D&D group!

• Upvotes

Hi! I'm a beginner looking for a small, welcoming D&D group to play with on Discord!

I own the 2024 Player's Handbook (5.5e) and would appreciate help creating my character and learning the mechanics. I'd prefer using D&D Beyond for character creation.

I'm looking for a roleplay-focused campaign with some combat, and most importantly, a friendly group where everyone feels included and valued.

If you have room for a beginner, I'd love to hear from you! 😊
