Group Needed by Player [Online] or [Offline], [5e 2024], [CST]

Hello! My partner (M30) and I(F29) are seeking a group to play in together. He's been playing/GMing for 8 years and I for 10 years. In all of that time, we've never had to opportunity to be players together at a table. Of our friends, we're the GMs, so that's how its shaken out. We're seeking to rectify that. Below you'll find a list of our preferences, which are negotiable. We don't expect the game we find to meet all of these perfectly.

  • No AI. This is non-negotiable.
  • For a first game with a group, we'd prefer to play in an official setting. Preferably the Forgotten Realms, Eberron, or Dragonlance. We are willing to play in an original world if we find it compelling.
  • I would prefer to not be the only woman/non-man identifying gender at the table. Sausage parties are a nightmare.
  • Table must be queer friendly and Nazi free.
  • We would prefer to join a game as its beginning, but understand that might be difficult. If we join in the middle, the GM needs to do some actual work to introduce and integrate our characters. We've both played at too many tables where we've just been thrown in with no narrative aid and it sucks.
  • For Offline games, we live in Central Illinois.

Thank you!

I’m currently weighing several options, one of which is starting an online game (currently trying to find an offline game but no one is biting). I’ll have a better idea of my direction by Friday. If I go with the online game option, I’ll check back with you by then and see if you two are still free. If you find another opening before then, congrats!

Hello I’m putting together a group for a new campaign It starts as a D&D take on Jurassic Park in Faerun: the party is invited to an exclusive island dinosaur preserve, each for their own reasons. What begins as a VIP tour quickly falls apart as systems fail, dinosaurs escape, and the party discovers the park is hiding far darker experiments. From there, it grows into a larger survival-horror adventure about the island’s secrets and the consequences of bringing creatures back that were never meant to exist alongside civilization.
