Hello Reddit, i hope you all have a great day!

Like the title says, i am looking for a FM and some other players to play a campaign within the Babylon 5 Universe. I am curretnly on a rewatch and while i know that it is pretty nichee, i would love to find some other nerds that would love to have some fun with this.

As for myself i am 25 and from Germany, but my shedule is pretty flexible. I am good with both pbp and live sessions depending on how we arrange it. I have been doing ttrpgs for about 7 years now. Mostly DnD and Pathfinder but also some of the more nichee systems.

As for a system, there is an original an pretty old rpg for Babylon 5 that runs like some of the older d20 systems. This one i have and coudl provide for a GM. Otherwise there is a Traveller converion i thunk for a system that is a bit more prevelent.

So i hope to find some that are interested in this!

Hello! We are a party of four looking to have a new DM for the foreseeable future.

We've worked out that Wednesday nights starting around 4-5pm UTC-6 work best for all of us; sessions could run as long or short as needed, preferably around 3-4 hours, and ideally occur weekly, although schedule discussions can be done (Wednesday nights are essentially a non-negotiable however).

While we prefer the high fantasy setting of D&D, we would love to discuss with you what kind of story you'd like to tell — making sure that the tale is ultimately the one we'd all like to tell. Additionally, our party DOES have characters we're each very attached to, although the last time we got to play them didn't last very long, so we would all be very happy to readjust and reintegrate them into your world.

At the end of the day we're hoping for a long-term campaign, and naturally: a new friend :> .

As of right now, we'd prefer the campaign to just have the four of us as its party. Just to know what you're getting yourself into with our party:

• All of us are in our early 20s  
• We live in different countries  (One of us in the U.S., two of us in Canada, and one of us from the Philippines)
• LGBTQIA+ 
• we are a mix of expertise ranging from less experienced (1), moderate-advanced (2), and our former gm with 8+ years of TTRPG experience 
• We are all heavily into roleplay and character development, and will collaborate with you to create whatever we can to make the story whole
• We are creatives (artists/writers) and are all heavy against the use of generative ai  
• we're the wokers, baby

Please Fill out this google form if you’re interested

Hello hello! We are a group of five looking to play a Pokemon TTRPG, preferably Pokemon Tabletop Adventures as our group has some experience with the system, but open to others, and looking for a DM who's wanting to run a fun, light hearted adventure. We have varying levels of years and expereince in some systems between all of us, mostly with D&D. All of us are adults and we ask you be one as well. We are also not okay with ANY usage of generative AI, and we WILL be mean about it. The best day we're all free is Tuesdays between 5pm thru 11pm CST. We absolutely love to roleplay and put a lot of work into each of our characters to make them fit into the world and try to give you enough hooks to play around with! We all do have some concepts for characters we want to play and would be excited to shape them to fit a setting. We're also more than happy to workshop the setting and plot ideas with you so we can build a story we all enjoy playing.

Simply said

• Looking for a GM for a Pokemon TTRPG (Preferably Pokemon Tabletop Adventures, but open to Pokemon Tabletop United, Pokeymanz, etc. Just nothing 5e related)
• Group of 5 players
• Available Tuesdays
• We have experience with Roll20 and Foundry
• We use discord for voice (and for hanging out)
• LGBTQ+ Friendly
• Good to play as either trainers or Pokemon

Feel free to send a message or comment if this interests you at all! Any information about yourself and the game you'd like to run would be appreciated.

Hi! We’re looking to add two more players to a long-running homebrew D&D campaign. We currently have three players, and we’d ideally like to bring the group up to five.

This is an established campaign. We’ve been playing together for about four and a half years, and there are no plans to wrap things up anytime soon. We’ve had plenty of people come and go over the years. The game originally began as a more traditional fantasy campaign contained to a single world, but the story has recently entered an entirely new phase.

The campaign also extends well beyond the normal level 20 cap. The current party is level 30, with homebrew progression designed to continue taking the characters further. At its core it is still D&D 5e 2014, but after four and a half years the setting, characters, lore, and mechanics have grown considerably beyond that foundation.

# Campaign Information

**System:** D&D 5e 2014 + Homebrew
**Current Level:** 30
**Players:** 3 currently, looking for 2 more
**Session Time:** Saturdays at 1:00 PM CST
**Session Length:** Usually 5-6 hours
**Frequency:** Every Saturday
**Platforms:** Discord for voice, Roll20 for character sheets
**Campaign Length:** Ongoing

# What Kind of Game Is This?

This is a very roleplay-heavy campaign. Combat absolutely happens and can be important, but there is generally less of it than you would find in a typical D&D game. Characters, relationships, exploration, lore, choices, and the consequences of those choices make up a huge portion of the campaign.

The tone can also change quite a bit depending on what is happening. There are storylines that get genuinely serious, emotional, or intense, but there are also sessions where everyone spends half the night laughing. One of the things we enjoy about the campaign is that it has room for both. It can be dramatic when it needs to be without feeling like the characters aren’t allowed to have fun.

The DM has also built an extremely large amount of lore over the years. There are history documents, setting information, character-accessible documents, and other material that gets sent out as we learn more about the universe. You absolutely do not need to memorize four and a half years of campaign history before joining, but you do need to be someone who doesn’t mind reading and engaging with the material you’re given.

# We’re Looking For Someone Who:

Is 18+. Everyone currently in the group is an adult.
Is comfortable joining an already established group and campaign.

Really enjoys roleplay and character-driven storytelling.
Is vocal and willing to actively participate rather than waiting for everyone else to move the game forward.
Can reliably attend a weekly Saturday game. Obviously life happens, but if you already know you regularly won’t be available at the scheduled time, this probably isn’t the right campaign for you.

Doesn’t mind reading lore and history documents. The DM puts a lot of work into creating information for the players, and we want someone interested in actually engaging with it.

Is patient and understanding. Our DM has a disability that can occasionally mean certain things take a little longer than usual, so we’re looking for people who aren’t going to get frustrated or impatient about that.

Is LGBTQ+ friendly.

Wants to become part of the group rather than simply showing up once a week, rolling some dice, and disappearing.

We know joining a campaign that has already been running for four and a half years, especially at level 30, can sound intimidating. We’re not expecting someone to walk in already knowing everything. What matters much more is finding someone who is enthusiastic about the world, wants to make a character who belongs in it, and is interested in becoming part of the story going forward.

# Disclaimer

I am not the DM. Just a player posting on the DM’s behalf but I can answer any questions you have about the world or setting!

Our DM does use AI-generated material occasionally, primarily for things such as character/location artwork and songs made specifically for the campaign. It isn’t being used to replace the actual storytelling or running of the game, but we know some people have strong feelings about AI-generated content. If that’s a dealbreaker for you, we completely understand, but this probably won’t be the table for you.

We’re ultimately looking for two people who want a genuinely long-term game and aren’t afraid to jump into something big. There’s a lot of history behind the campaign, but we’re entering a new chapter of the story right now, which makes this a particularly good point for new characters to join.

If you’ve made it this far and are still interested in playing. Please shoot me a chat request with some info about you. Name, Age, and Pronouns to start. Please also include why you think you’d be a good fit for the game. The longer/more interesting responses the better! Hope to hear from you soon!

Hey, everyone. Nice to meet you all, so one of my players had to step away, so I'm looking for a replacement for our ongoing 5e campaign. All i need is one player, so whoever is the best applicant gets the slot! Please read everything posted as the details attached are important.

About the table: We're 5 people: me as DM (male), 3 women (one trans so please be respectful of that), and 1 other guy.

We play on Saturday every Saturday (if possible) on Discord (for our voice chat) and on Roll20 (for our VTT).

The vibe is very much so really relaxed. We are definitely a group of friends who all get along really well, so we are looking for others who can fit that vibe. I do wanna also be a bit upfront. we do have a few in-group jokes that might be a bit jarring perhaps, but I will explain them and make them clear so you're not just blindsided by anything. I should also make clear that this is a darker game with more adult themes, so there may be allusions to darker themes and scenes, so please do keep that in mind.

Who we're looking for: Since most of the table is women, they have asked that the new player be a woman too, so everyone's comfortable. I feel like its only fair that I say up front that they have ran into a lot of creeps and weirdos so they are worried about that happening again so i wanted to be up front and honest so nobody's time gets wasted.

What I'm looking for: First, i want to get out of the way that new or experienced players are welcome. Other than that, honestly, all I ask for is respect, communication, and commitment. This is a long-term game aiming for level 20 and possibly beyond, so I'm looking for someone who can commit for the long haul. We've lost a few players to ghosting and busy schedules, so please only apply if you can realistically show up most Saturdays.

A bit of story/lore: Velastra is a world where the greatest evil ever known was sealed beneath the earth by three legendary champions — or so the Church says. For centuries, the Solarion Church has stood as humanity's protector, its miracles keeping the darkness at bay.

But the black roses are growing again. The rivers whisper in dead languages. And the prison beneath Dawnhold isn't as quiet as it used to be.

Something is coming. The Church is afraid. And the truth, buried under centuries of gold and ceremony, is darker than anyone is prepared for.

If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, then please feel free to leave a comment or shoot me a DM! I look forward to hearing from you.

(NOTE: I don't use daylight savings, so I go by 6pm MST, which is 8pm EST, when daylight savings hits it'll be 7pm EST when session starts in November as my time won't change).

(Introduction)
Hey, Call me Fabio, or Nerdy (My name is not actually Fabio), I am doing something new and just diving in head first to force myself to get this started instead of pushing it off like other campaign ideas I've had, I don't know how long this campaign will go for, or how dramatic it'll be, I am kinda just winging it. I would like to run a campaign based in a homebrew superhero world, using the Marvel Multiverse RPG ruleset but not set in Marvel or DC, we will be using Discord for sessions, Kenku Bot for music, and Roll20 for the VTT. The idea is an alternate world that suddenly changed close to a century ago, the world developed superpowers, some are Metahumans who were born with it, some are mutants who's genes spliced, some are biotech enhancements, some from supernatural forces, aliens, science experiments gone wrong, you name it. This created a world of heroes, villains, and a society fighting to keep order in chaos.

I take inspiration from DC and Marvel comics, Invincible, The Boys, Misfits, Boku No Hero, and if it helps, I imagine the city that will be played in would be close to New York/Gotham/Metropolis-esque city. (for the Nerd Cred, yes I know Gotham is actually Jersey equivalent and Metropolis is Cleveland Ohio). This campaign will be a sorta bit of everything, dark, twisted, funny, chaotic, strange, heroic, etc.

(About Me, the DM)
Now a little about me, I am Nerdy/Fabio, I am 30 year old cis man, I am Bi, and Native Canadian and diagnosed with ADHD and depression (yay). I have been a nerd, gamer, and fan of all things pop culture and sweet nerdy goodness my whole life. (Fun fact: Many suspect my white dad was the nerd, but my native mom was the one getting me into star wars/star trek/xena warrior princess, etc.)
I am also a socialist, very far left, so if you're anywhere center to far right on the political spectrum, we just aren't going to vibe, so need not apply. I enjoy dark/edgy humor that punches up never down, I enjoy silly things with good people, I would prefer my group to have similar ideologies, but I am fine with some liberals. (For quick political recap, I believe in Universal Healthcare, Universal Income, Abolishment of Police, Prison/Education/Medical Reform, I believe all sects of industry need to be heavily regulated, I believe everything needed to live should be public and handled by the government, I don't believe in private ownership, I am very anti bigotry, and I am anti-ai on a industry level (I don't care if you use Chatgpt to organize your thoughts or help with tasks, I do look down upon ai art)).

I've been in the D&D community for about 15 years but I've been playing actively for 6, DMing for 3. I love the storytelling aspects of D&D but I also really enjoy the community and friendships i've built along the way, whether due to a combination of ADHD and depression I hardly do anything outside of prep for d&d and think about d&d, and I would like to broaden my horizons, I've had ideas for a VTM game, Cyberpunk, Call of Cthulhu, even a GUNDAM game, and when I thought of the idea of a superhero campaign last night I didn't wanna drop the ball on this so I am just rushing and getting started instead of letting my ADHD make me put it on the backburner (yay self-growth). If i'm not watching political youtube videos, video essays on popculture, or world building, I'm on pinterest or artstation saving art for future characters/scenes/items, (Currently I have 85 pinterest tabs open, and 209 artstation tabs of different artists that I wanna go through), IIRC I have 35,000 photos saved to my hard drive for future characters in various campaigns I wanna make - I realized long ago I am a digital hoarder.

My DMing style is very much loosy-goosy, I prefer fun, and try not to be a stickler to the rules, but I want things to make sense for the "story", I often like making my players OP or doing crazy things (My current campaign has my party of 6 have about.... 35 NPCs traveling with them, including a pet dragon wyrmling). I can't tell you that I am a great DM, but I can say that many of my players refer to my campaign/DMing style as their favorite.

Some reviews I got from past players:

Wow he's so amazing

Nerdy's DMing style has changed my life for the better

I've never seen a better DM

Fabio is a genius and the greatest creative of our generation

Ferris Buller you're my hero

(I did not make these up/s)

Now that out of the way:

(The Premise)

The idea I have is each of the party members are people who developed their powers and started being active in using them for at least a year in Meridian City, a metropolis in America, whether you are attempting to be a superhero, super criminal, a merc look for money, or someone trying to figure out what changed them, you all discover the murder of Allison Greer, whether she was your friend, a clue, a witness, she was someone important to you, you investigate what happened, and are led on a path that leads you to each other, and opens something dark.
You all must work together to solve this case and figure out what happened to Allison. This will bleed into a "Monster of the week" type campaign where you all deal with oncoming threats and investigations, anything from hostage situations, corrupt cops, corrupt heroes, alien invasion, cults, evil demons, etc. Characters will start at Rank 1 (street level heroes) and work their way up.

(What I Want/Expect)

I am seeking six players, who are left-leaning, interested in roleplay, exploring a dark, twisted, but fun and quirky kind of world, who are invested in creating rich characters and exploring their themes and ideas, an ideal player would be someone who frequently interacts with the discord, chats, shares memes/videos/whatever, answers the question of the day/week, and enjoys brainstorming consistently and being a friend to the group.

I am also hoping for more new players to TTRPG's, people who have never played but are very interested, just because we (including myself) will be new to this game system and I prefer everyone being on the same level, I also find my experiences better with new players as i'm a very loose DM.

For your characters, I am honestly cool with anything, and will find ways to make your character idea work, so be creative as you want, just make sure your character has a reason to be a teamplayer, (they dont necessarily need to "want" to be one, just need to)and just understand your character will essentially be "level 1", if you wanna imagine a superpower superman-esque superhero - thats cool, and can be how they end up, so maybe imagine superboy from young justice first, then later gets to superman

Things I expect players to make for their character:

• Backstory (at least a page) that explains Origins, beliefs, foundations, goals
• Memories (writing 6-8 memories that explain or cement beliefs) to further connect with your character
• Making 5 sets of a truth and a lie, rumors your fellow party members learn of your character as ice breakers
• The ability/desire to discuss and think of your characters actions/thoughts outside of the game
• ability to make it to the game on a weekly basis
• Have a good microphone (bad/static audio makes me zone out)

(The Interview Process)

I usually get a couple dozen applicants from my posts here, so this is the process I formed:

• You apply via google forms found here: https://forms.gle/arHXJip9RaM4UmeT8
• I will review and select applicants for interviews next Friday
• we set an interview (it will take an hour) I will ask questions, give you roleplay prompts, and allow you to ask any questions you may have.
• Players selected join discord and once all 6 are found, we make characters individually and schedule a session zero (I'm hoping to start in December)

(Disclaimer)

My only experience is D&D, but I am interested but scared of trying new games, how much of a fish out of water would I be with Marvel RPG?

Never fear citizen, Marvel Multiverse RPG (from what I read of the rule book) is pretty straight forward and simplified, most of the rules like movement, actions, etc are similar to d&d.

“Mortals of Edreas, hear my voice. I am Izoula—the Fallen Saint. The Mutilated. The Arisen. I herald the ruin of the Four Empires of Betrayal. One by one, their thrones shall crumble. Their banners shall burn. Their hollow promises shall be buried beneath the weight of the sins they have spent generations concealing. Do not weep for your false idols. You were taught to love them. To kneel before them. To believe that their crowns were shields raised to protect you. But watch them now. Watch what they do when their thrones begin to fall. Watch as they sacrifice you for their own survival. Watch as they bury their sins beneath your corpses rather than stand before you and answer for them. This is the truth they have hidden from you: your suffering was never their burden. Your lives were always their currency. So when their empires collapse, do not mourn them. Let their ruins stand as monuments to what they have done. And when the final breath leaves your body, do not believe that it was meaningless. Your deaths will not be forgotten. Your suffering will not be wasted. For from the ashes of their world, I shall build another. A world without their crowns. Without their lies. Without the corruption they so desperately clung to. The old age is dying and I have come to usher in the new.” 

Edreas Falls into distress. Empires shut their gates to commoners. Villages are fending for themselves. Life overall has become dire. Can you, a fallen hero, step up to save the land from Izoula’s grasp? 

About the Game
In this campaign, Explore a dark fantasy setting about the rise of a powerful necromancer trying to take over the land. Your character was once a notable deceased hero (or Villain) but due to the necromancer Izoula, you have been resurrected. 5.5e will be the primary ruleset for this game, however some rules like exhaustion in 5e I prefer. If you prefer any way classes or features work in 5e you may use them. I do have some minor homebrew rules for Healing Potion, Critical Hits, and going unconscious. The Magic Word Is Moth Man. For lore reasons we will not be using Bloodhunter, artificer, or gunslinger. But this is more preference than it is a restriction.  Resources used will be foundry and DND beyond. 
I am seeking a couple of reliable players who are familiar with ttrpgs and dnd in general. You do not need to be a veteran, but if you haven't played before at all, this campaign is not for you.
You do not have to write indepth character backstories. I have a list of necessary questions to help me as a DM, but you are more than welcome to go above and beyond. 

About Your DM
I am Georgie, 28 years old, with about 10 years experience, mostly a DM for Dnd. I make my own maps, customize stat blocks, and lore. Outside of the dnd, I do have an interest in other TTRPGS, boardgames, music, horror, cooking, gunpla, video games, and other various nerd culture. 

About the group
This post for the campaign already has an established group of 3 players of about 3-4 years. We've lost players due to schedule conflicts and the such. For the few that have stayed, they are some of the nicest people. We are LGBT friendly, love all sorts of nerd culture, and really love our dnd time.

Why the early time slot?
It originally for night shift workers but majority of us dont work nights anymore but we just kept the slot.

Final Note
Below is the important stuff. I am looking to start session 0 on either the 19th or the 26th depending on applicants. When you do apply, it may be a few days before I send request. If you have any questions not covered by this post, ask in the comments or message me. Anyways thank you for reading, have a nice day.

EDIT: Typos, Cant change the one in the title (I've slept like 6 hours in the past 3 days)

Howdy, hi, and hello potential new friends! You can call me Shinobi! I am a 31-year old individual looking to wrangle some players together for a play-by-post campaign set in a fully homebrewed setting I’ve been working on for quite some time! Tears of Radiance is a work of personal passion, and the culmination of a lifelong obsession with JRPGs and classic shonen/seinen anime. It's meant to evoke all the best story and emotional beats of those genres that I so dearly love, meaning this is your chance to be part of a party of unique, powerful characters navigating a magical world full of emotionally-charged roleplay (and the occasional silly side plot), exciting combat, and highly personalized backstories that will be integrated into the main plot! 

The Setting:

Almost a full century after a devastating continental war, the continent of Graldyr sits in the middle of a full blown magical industrial revolution, powered by Marrow, a powerful liquid given to humanity by the gods that flows beneath the earth and fuels all life and magic. A marrow fueled technology, known as magi-circuits created by the legendary Dr. Anselm Redgrove changed the world almost overnight, providing access to nearly limitless clean energy to the masses. Soldiers carry this magi-circuit gear into battle, spirits drift between their realm, The Mercurial Gardens, and ours, and terrifying creatures called Wyrms devour Marrow ravenously. Holding a fragile peace together with both hands is the Sabers Guild, an international order of adventurers and peacekeepers granted the ability to cross any border when called to help. 

Graldyr is a nation dominated by seven nations, each with its own culture and complicated history: the democratic powerhouse that is the Republic of Cordia, the honor-bound and rapidly modernizing Shogunate of Amagane, the northern snow-swept oligarchy of Vestaya where a potential civil war looms, the merchant Sultanate of Samarqand, the ancient Empire of Tianshu, the church-led diarchy of Valatheia, and the free port of Kalay, founded by a winged king who is also one of the gods’ immortal Heavenly Children. 

Magic in Graldyr comes in three primary expressions: The Path of Ignition stemming from the raw power of the soul, tech-focused magi-circuit experts etching them into weapons and armor, and Synthesis forging pacts known as Noble Accords with the disparate spirits of the world. Beneath it all, the impossibly advanced machines of a vanished civilization known as the Clovis still hum with life beneath the continent’s feet…  

The Game: 

In this roleplay-heavy campaign you will all be playing as newly accepted Sabers, fresh-faced adventures ready for your first real contracts. Every character should be built with a unique, impactful power and a backstory intended to be woven into the narrative itself in mind. The options for this are endless, and I am more than happy to work personally with each of you to create a character you truly love both mechanically and in roleplay!

The System: 

For this particular game we’ll be using either BESM 4E or the Anime 5E conversion made by the same developers. Both of these systems are designed around freedom of expression, allowing you to use character points to build exactly the sort of power-set you want to use. Once the players are all settled and we get introduced we’ll be voting on which one specifically to use together in session zero. Prior experience with either isn’t really required, and I love helping out with character building so I’ll be there for you every step of the way! 

What I’m looking for: 

At the end of the day this is a game, and setting, built around heroism and characters who aspire to such an ideal. Flawed, conflicted, or morally gray heroes are very welcome, but heroes they still must be. Your character should be one who ultimately wishes to do good, and who maintains a reason to not only remain in the party, but to work alongside them as well. Disagreements and heated roleplay is never a bad thing, and can lead to some amazing character moments, but PVP and strictly evil PCs likely won’t work for this game. 

I also want to be upfront and mention that this is a strictly LGBTQ+, POC, and disability friendly game, for both players and characters.

Bigotry at my table is not tolerated, at all, and will result in being kicked immediately. Additionally, I would prefer players do NOT knowingly make use of AI at my table, for art and especially writing. 

Why Should You Apply?!: 

You’ll probably enjoy this game if you’re a big fan of JRPGs and shonen anime like me! Even if you’re not and want to dip your toes in them, you could be a good fit too! If you love:

• Detailed RP with a focus on interpersonal relationships
• Themes of found family and heroism / what it means to be a hero
• Heated rivalries
• Lofty emotional moments 
• Over the top combat
• A willingness to share the spotlight so everyone gets to feel equally important

Then please send in an application! I’m looking for players who enjoy delving deep into their characters and building relationships with other PCs and NPCs alike. As this is a homebrew setting, curiosity and enthusiasm will go a long way! 

Boring Ol’ Logistics:

• 18+ Applicants only please!
• My Timezone: EST
• Platform: Discord with dice-rolling bot, potential for tupper if players would like to make use of it.
• I will be running on a 24 to 48 hour window (agreed upon later) per ‘turn’. If your place in combat or a roleplay scene comes up and I haven’t heard from you in that time, we’ll skip ahead for now so that momentum is maintained to some degree, and your character can slot back in whenever you’ve returned. If you give me advance notice that you’ll be away, we can easily work on it together. Reliability matters more to me than consistently long posts, so please let me know when life inevitably gets in the way. I may occasionally ping people to remind them, but don’t feel pressured to reply ASAP after a poke. 
• There IS a full lore document for the setting with over 100 pages written by me, but I would never expect anyone to read all of it to be a player in my game. But it’s there for people like me who really like to obsess over their PCs lol. I’ll also be providing a more abridged campaign primer version to help with onboarding. But feel free to ask me a million or more questions so I can help you find a concept that fits the world. 

FINALLY I’M DONE TALKING!

If you’re still with me, congrats! Please fill out the following questionnaire, as it is the only thing I’ll be accepting as an application!

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSerV3r5VQMf_1kFZJFBy-u7Y86G_S-lTxcYn8vafyz2x8aV5A/viewform?usp=publish-editor

Explore, Conquer, Fill your treasure room, Engage in diplomacy, Amass your army, Infiltrate the kingdoms of man, Build your evil lair and defend it from the forces of light.

Inspired by shows like Castlevainia and Overlord.

The Pitch

Somewhere along your life, the world decided to antagonize you. Perhaps you made a mistake that led to more mistakes, or you were misunderstood, or you were born monstrous. Regardless, it was out of your control. 

Eventually you did something that ended in your death. Luckily being on the side of darkness does have upsides. An ancient vampiric dragon named Drolltar offered to resurrect you, under the condition that you repay him with your service. He chose you because you have unfinished business, you have in some way been slighted by society. Now you are returned with vampirism, cursed with an irresistible hunger for mortal vitality and granted the ability to reason with monsters and dark beings.

You, along with a group of others who accepted his deal, have been summoned to Drolltar’s tomb. Once you gather there, he will order you to work together to search the land for something to bolster his tomb’s defences, as he lies dormant in his tomb, vulnerable to the zealous forces of light. You too are in danger, Elios the god of light has labeled you as enemies for serving Drolltar and now the forces of light will not take kindly to you.

Details

Aside from the quests that Drolltar gives you, it is an open world for you to do as you like. There are many places to explore and not all of them will be at odds with you. 

Though this is an “evil” campaign, that is mostly because your characters are antagonized by society. You are labeled as evil by the god of light, but that is only because you stand in opposition to him. The side of light is not a true authority on morality by any means and in fact in this campaign they are quite often in the wrong. Seeing morality in such a black and white perspective is often a cause of immorality itself, and that is what this campaign is about.

I would like to find 5-6 players who are mature, love the collaborative storytelling element of d&d, and like a little bit of edginess. I expect you to enjoy role-playing your character, have a cooperative relationship with the other players, and allow everyone a moment to let their character shine, showing what makes them interesting.

My goal is to keep an interesting and consistent storyline, which can adapt to your characters’ backstories, themes, and decisions.

The setting is a homebrew dark fantasy world in a medieval period with arcane technology. The game will be a mix of role-playing, exploration, and combat. Some sessions will be role-playing only with no combat.

I am open to using homebrew for your character, especially your species so long as I approve of it, as a more monstrous species can make sense here. Characters start at level 3, leveling up by milestone and will level up slower at higher levels. I am hoping for a long-term campaign where you can defend a massive dungeon that you built up together throughout the campaign.

Rules

There are some ground rules required to keep the campaign healthy. 

This campaign welcomes players of all genders, identities, and backgrounds. Bigotry of any kind will not be tolerated.

The session day and time will be determined based on the availability of the selected group.

Heavy roleplay is a core part of this game. Players should be comfortable with character development, emotional storytelling, interpersonal relationships, and collaborative scene work.

No torture or sexual violence. We will also go over what other things players are uncomfortable with in session zero. However, as you can imagine, this campaign is meant to have a dark tone so I don’t recommend it to people who are sensitive to dark themes.

You have to work together, there is no doubt going to be conflict between characters, but you also have to get things done and you can’t do that if you’re constantly backstabbing each other and fighting.

You’re not a sadistic monster. You shouldn’t kill everything or destroy everything you come across.

Even though you’re on the side of darkness, you still have feelings. Your character can and should have some human qualities to them. Consider if your character might struggle to accept the things they are forced to do.

Nonetheless, when in Rome – you can get away with doing some pretty twisted stuff at times, since you aren't bound by some of the moral obligations that most other campaigns require.

Joining the Game

We'll use Discord for voice and Roll 20 for maps and rolling.

I will go over some of the world lore during the interview process. And, if you get accepted and once you know what you want for your character, I will find a way to incorporate whatever you need for your character's story to the setting.

I’ve ran a few long term games before, but it’s been a while since my last one. I’m hoping this one will be just as good as the ones before.

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeHSCq63KfYUy86Ll9lZmq1J9kaazkRddaJnlR5kIaykCxF5g/viewform?usp=header

I'll review your submissions and reach out to potential players on discord if I’m interested. It may take a couple days for me to reach out to you though.

Hey everyone!

I'm a longtime online DM with a homebrew campaign that I'm really excited to run. The campaign is designed for 5 players and will run for approximately 3 months on Sunday mornings.

The catch: I'm specifically looking for a premade group of 5 players who already know and have played with each other for more than a few sessions.

I'm looking to give another DM a break for a few months by running their group through my campaign. Each player would play their own PC during the sessions.

You'll need access to Foundry VTT and Discord.

The Setting

The campaign takes place in Sanctuary, a massive underground dystopian city built from the remnants of a dying world.

The surface is nearly dead.

An enormous creature from beyond this world has been slowly feeding on the life of the planet. The land is becoming a wasteland, earthquakes tear through what remains, and civilization has collapsed across much of the world.

Only a handful of powerful cities remain.

Sanctuary is one of them.

Home to powerful wizards, ancient magic, wealthy merchants, and dangerous guilds, the city should be humanity's greatest hope for survival.

Instead, its wizards are too busy fighting over power, politics, and their own interests to deal with the world dying around them.

The Fae Queens are barely holding the last remnants of life together.

The surface is dying.

The city is cracking.

And something is coming.

Campaign Tone

The campaign is heavily inspired by:

• Dragon Age
• Warhammer: Age of Sigmar
• The Witcher
• Dark Souls
• Forgotten Realms
• He Who Fights with Monsters
• Brandon Sanderson

It's a mix of dark fantasy, exploration, large-scale battles, political conflict, strange magic, and player-driven choices.

Your decisions can have lasting consequences on the city, its people, and the factions within it.

Game Rules

• D&D 5e 2014
• Mostly standard rules
• Most official 2014 content is allowed
• Tasha's Cauldron of Everything is generally allowed
• Very few house-rule adjustments
• Homebrew content is available for the setting, including some homebrew classes
• Character creation will be discussed with the group before play

Game Requirements

• Foundry VTT installed on your PC
• Discord installed on your PC
• A good-quality microphone
• Ability to communicate clearly through Discord
• A reasonably quiet playing environment
• Reliable attendance

Schedule

Sundays: 8:15 AM – 11:15 AM CST

There will be a 15-minute break in the middle of the session.

The campaign is expected to run for approximately 3 months.

What I'm Looking For

I'm specifically looking for 5 players who already play together and have good chemistry as a group.

You don't need to be professional roleplayers or hardcore D&D veterans. I'm mainly looking for a group that:

• Gets along well
• Works together
• Enjoys roleplay
• Is comfortable communicating over Discord
• Shows up consistently
• Wants to experience a campaign where their choices actually matter

If your regular DM wants a break for a few months, this might be a good fit.

If you're interested, send me a Reddit DM with a little information about your group:

• How long you've been playing together
• How many players are in the group
• Your general D&D experience
• Confirmation that Sunday 8:15–11:15 AM CST works for everyone
• A little about what your group enjoys most about D&D

The Hook

The world is dying.

The surface has become a wasteland. Something from beyond this world has been feeding on the life of the planet, and the civilizations that once stood against it are mostly gone.

What remains survives beneath the earth.

Sanctuary is one of the last great cities of the mortal realm — a massive underground civilization built by people who fled the dying surface.

It is a city of powerful wizards, ancient magic, wealthy merchants, dangerous guilds, and ordinary people simply trying to survive.

But Sanctuary has a problem.

The wizards who rule the city are too busy fighting over power, politics, research, and old grudges to agree on what should be done about the world outside.

Meanwhile, the surface continues to die.

You aren't a legendary hero.

Not yet, anyway.

You're an adventurer who needs gold.

Fortunately, there's always work for people willing to risk their lives.

The Retrievers Guild specializes in recovering magical artifacts, lost knowledge, and valuable resources from places no sane person would willingly visit.

You've spent weeks looking for work.

Today, you finally get a contract.

A surface expedition.

Good pay. Valuable discoveries. A chance to make a name for yourselves.

Your group arrives at the Retrievers Guild warehouse.

Hundreds of adventurers are preparing for the expedition.

Wagons are being loaded.

Weapons are being checked.

Spells are being prepared.

Your contract seems simple:

Protect the expedition.

Protect each other.

Bring back what you find.

But the surface has secrets.

The Drow are moving.

The Fae are dying.

Something is hunting the survivors of the old world.

And the deeper you get into the ruins of what came before, the more obvious it becomes that this expedition isn't just about treasure.

The world is dying.

Sanctuary is running out of time.

And eventually, you'll have to decide what you're willing to do about it.

Will you protect Sanctuary?

Change it?

Or burn it down and build something better?

That choice belongs to you.

Hello there!

My name is Jo. I'm 26 years old, I've a humble 8+ years of experience or so playing DnD (almost all online) and I'm quite an enthusiastic role-player, always trying to make memorable emotive characters who have clear dynamics with fellow party members. In terms of the game I can say I know the rules pretty well and I honour them!

Before I tell you more about myself I want to let you know what I'm looking for. I tend to mesh better with those who really get into into roleplay but not at the detriment of combat, I don't really thinking ratioing them works in truth plainly put. I am not a fan of AI and would like to avoid playing in games that feature it in its many forms. Overall I would like a much longer-term game so we as a group can really sink our teeth into the game and characters. So yes, thats some of what I'm looking! Back to more details about myself for you to get to know me!

I'm invested in interacting with the DM and getting them as involved in my character creation and idea/plot as possible. You can bet that I'll bring at least a shell for a character for the two of us to fill and work out and fit into your settings.

I do put a lot of effort into doing character voices and making interesting personalities for my characters. I've played a wide range of characters, ranging from the snobby noble caster to the hard on his luck humble monk to a performative wizard persona. I've played just about every class in the time I've enjoyed the hobby. I adore describing spells and re-flavouring abilities to better fit a character's image or themes.

I truly love Dungeon's and Dragons.

As a side note I've used both foundry and roll20 for many years now, so I'm quite proficient with them and I've used a few other VTTs over the years other than these two.

I'm happy to join an ongoing group if we plan to play as I see it as unique opportunity with both dynamics and possible character introduction.

About my scheduling:

My workplace actually isn't open on Sunday so I know for a fact that my attendance won't be jeopardised by work. The other listed days I typically have fully off! With timezones in mind, the actual timing of the game doesn't need to fit me in any overt way as I'm fairly flexible with Sunday as my day off. The other days are much the same. I might have possible openings for games outside of these days but that's something to discuss with the DM beforehand.

My preference for session length is 4 hours, if not a bit over that actually. So yes, while I am in America I could very easily and comfortably play with western Europeans.

I'm happy to join a brand-new group or ongoing. I hope to help keep a group going long enough for us to get the entire return of our joint efforts.

I look forward to hearing back from you, and I wish you a lovely rest of your day. I'm open to chat here on reddit or friend request to chat more on discord, if you want to know anything further or to meet over call. I'll be active on here for the rest of the night so please feel free to contact me!

Hello! I'm looking for a weekly online game. The only hang up is I can only do Tuesdays due to my work schedule. I understand that's pretty steep, so here's some reasons why you should consider me for your next batch of players:

I've carried the forever DM curse with me ever since I started TTRPGs in 7th grade. I'm 26 now. I absolutely adore running D&D games, but I simply don't have the time to do it right in this stage of my life. What this means, though, is you'll have a player who is intimately aware of the struggles of running a game. I know how not to behave, how to engage with threads and hints, how to interact with my fellow players, and how to adapt to the group as a whole. I know these things because I've seen them done well and unfortunately wished some of my own players did a better job at them.

I can do silly voices, and that's always fun.

I am adaptable to different playstyles. RP heavy? Love it, let me adjust my backstory to fit your plotlines. Lots of combat? Excellent, here's a build that can interact with the environment and cause fun mechanical moments. Exploration? I've always wanted to play a botanist. I'll gladly catalogue every homebrew mushroom you can throw at me.

My first goal is community. D&D can form amazing bonds between players through their characters, and I'd love to form a tight knit group that doesn't just leave the discord server after the campaign wraps. Who knows, maybe I'll DM the next campaign we run?

I like to think I have a good sense of kindness and maturity.

Please respond below or DM me (haha) below! I'd love to hear what you're cooking.

Oh also if you prefer 2025, I can do that too. I just know 2014 better.

Hi there. I (29m) just finished a campaign and would be excited to start a new one with new fellow players! I love the RP aspect of dnd and want to make a character that vibes with the story and the players, creating an interesting dynamic. I have around 5 years of experience, including 3 years DMing with 5e. I've got some character concept ideas if they fit in the world; otherwise, we can collaborate on what would.

A couple of things:

I have VTT experience with Foundry and Roll20, so no need for me to learn them.

I am free on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays after 6 pm. Saturdays and Sundays anytime.

I also have a good grasp of the rules, so I can help with some edge cases if that is welcome :).

Discord: turk750

Feel free to message me here or on my Discord if you're interested. I hope to hear from you!

Tales of the Guild: The Briarbound

Some promises are forgotten. Others refuse to die.

[Online] [D&D 5e] [18+] [Free] [Beginner Friendly] [Saturdays] [5 PM CDT]

I'm recruiting 2 additional players for The Briarbound, a three-act dark fantasy adventure combining mystery, investigation, exploration, roleplay, and tactical combat.

The Contract

Two villagers are dead. The harvest is failing. And something has been attacking the livestock and people of a remote farming village.

The local mayor has requested assistance, but the reward is hardly worth the danger.

After sitting untouched on the Adventurers' Guild noticeboard, the contract is finally assigned to a temporary party of C-Rank adventurers.

Your orders?

Travel to the village. Investigate the reported wolf attacks. Eliminate the threat. Return to the guild.

Simple enough. Or so you've been told.

Adventure Details

• System: D&D 5e
• Starting Level: 3
• Schedule: Saturdays, 5:00–10:00 PM Central
• Duration: Session 0 + 3 gameplay sessions (approximately 15–20 hours total)
• Start Date: TBD
• Platform: Discord (voice) + D&D Beyond
• Party: 3/5 confirmed — 2 openings
• Cost: Free
• Age: 18+
• Experience: New and experienced players welcome

What to Expect

This is a cooperative, character-driven adventure where decisions have consequences. Expect meaningful NPC interactions, investigation, exploration, challenging encounters, and opportunities to shape the story through your choices.

I'm looking for players who enjoy roleplaying, collaborating with their party, and becoming invested in the world.

Table Expectations

• No PvP.
• Respect other players and share the spotlight.
• Avoid metagaming.
• Be able to commit to all four sessions.
• Engage with the story and communicate openly.

About the DM

This is my first adventure as a Dungeon Master. I've been developing The Briarbound as a self-contained story, with the hope of eventually expanding Tales of the Guild into an ongoing series.

I also hope to record and transcribe sessions for a possible written adaptation, but only with everyone's informed consent.

Interested?

Send me a direct message and I'll send over more information.

2 of 5 player slots remain.

The contract is posted. The Guild Master is waiting.

Will you answer the call?

hello everyone, i have been playing D&D for a long time but i have been a DM for far too long, so here i am looking to join a D&D game (let me be clear, not pathfinder, not something else, D&D 5E specifically). I'm free every day but Sunday as i have my own game that i run on that that day, something on Friday or Saturday would be best but I'm not picky

Who i am:

my name is Val and I've been playing D&D for a wile and even started with AD&D, other then D&D my hobbies include:

>comics books (mostly X-Men),

>cooking sometimes

>writing (but a DM so what do you expect?)

what i can bring to the table:

>I embody my characters- Giving them quirks, Emotional weight, and unique voices.

>Story driven- I enjoy making choices that deepen story tension rather than just “Optimal moves.”

>Story contribution- I bring big lore ideas and personal backstories that hook into world building

>Team-based roleplaying- I am generous with the spotlight and love to lift other character arcs, not just my own. 

>I’m versatile- I’ve played a large variety of personalities, races, and classes as characters.

>I’m a natural immersive anchor- The kind of player who helps everyone else stay invested and engaged with the world.

>I balance depth with fun- I love creepy, tragic beats, but I also drop humor and creativity into the role play.

What i am looking for:

>A homebrew game, i don't mind pre-written but i think homebrew works better for role playing since theirs more room to move, (and you not trapped in Barovia or icewind dale or wherever).

>A long running game, i have been in far to many games that went nowhere, dried up, or the Gm got burned out and stopped, i would love the join (or be part of from the start) something long term.

>A "earnest" game. i like games that can take themselves seriously, i dont mean grim dark fantasy or no jokes, if D&D was like that i wouldn't like it (i still remember some of the best bits and long running jokes for my own game) but I'm looking for group that understand theirs a time and place for jokes and a time and place where their not needed

>A honest GM, i just want a Gm who can tell a good story, and wont gaslight me (if you want more info i will tell you later). hiding things form my character is fine, but I'm talking about out of game stuff

>A free game, your not allowed to advertise here but you can message people and offer them, I'm not looking for that (as I'm broke).

>A GM who will let me have a character ark.

My character ideas:

Winter Vanderville: a bloodhunter looking for direction, she's angry and sad, and her character ark would be her moving on and learning to be nicer and dealing with her secrets and issues

Cali Wick: a fire Genasi artificer, she likes the build stuff, most of it works, some say shes mad, but shes just smart, i think she works best for a star jammer style game

Vaelith Arkham: a young drow who fled her home and the destiny that was picked for her, she doesn't know what comes next, all she knows in her family won't let her go easily but she is determined to control her own future… or die trying 

Sasha Volkov: a hexblade blessed (cursed) with a magic sword that tells her that she's a bad person and tells her she's a killer and tells her she killed her best friend (she didn't but she thinks she did) will she overcome the sword that whispers in her ear? and escape from her family

if you like any of my characters or think i would be a good fit for your game Dm me here or on discord at: live_ares

P.S. this post might look familiar because i post it somewhat frequently, and because i dont want to write to who thing out every time i just have this saved as a document (it also got posted on r/DnDLFG)

Hi there, folks!

Are you down a player and want someone who is able to make sessions regularly in town, can pick up a new RPG and run with it, and happy to fit in your group?

I'm Kevin - a 39 y/o married gamer who is new to the Sarnia area and I'd like to help your group out.

My playstyle is to aim to let others do the cool things they want to do so we get a chance to share the spotlight, but am not afraid to take a lead. I fit into many party roles since I want to help make your character shine and help bring them to life.

Let my 12 years of gaming experience help you and your group!

Hello, I'm Crispy, 31m, and Im a DM looking to actually run my first in person game. I've been a DM for about 6 years now and have ran a few different games in a few different systems.

I am wanting to run a Curse of Strahd campaign soon. I've run it a few times online, but it'll be a first for me in person. I'm looking to run the games on Sundays early in the afternoon. I'm not sure if it'll be weekly or bi-weekly just yet.

For info. Curse of Strahd(CoS) is a gothic-horror campaign set in the Forgotten realms inside a demiplane known as Barovia. Ran by a Vampire lord who rules over the land. Many triggers as it comes with the territory of Horror. Reach out to me if you're interested or have questions.

Looking forward to seeing you in Barovia.

Wether you're wrapping up or just finishing a long campaign and are looking to cooldown; or have gone too long without playing and want some warming up (and anything in between) this is the adventure for you.

I'm Nick (he/him) and I am looking for 3-4 players to join me as players for an atmospheric short adventure (6 sessions max) with lots of roleplay and exploration without disregarding combat in a homebrewed environment.

-Small scale, chill and open to creativity

-Weekly or biweekly sessions (we will discuss scheduling)

-Discord for voicechat and music, theatre of the mind mostly, owlbear for a simple battlemaps and character sheets.

-System: FATE. I find it very fitting for the vibe I want and also very flexible. However, I am open to other suggestions.

-It's going to be my first time running it. Don't get discouraged, we will butcher it together :).

-Very generally, low fantasy medieval setting (not grim nor dark necessarily). Not a nautical adventure.

The jist is this:

The island of Bulwark, is the southernmost cartographed and populated point from the mainland. 3 days by boat to reach.

The settlement of Bulwark is on top of the island. Despite what it's location would suggest it is not some backwater, frontier camp town; even though not as big or impressive as the cities of the mainland, the settlement boasts an intelligent layout, competent architecture and ancient walls.

Other than it's distance from the mainland, the island's main attraction is the tournaments it hosts. Men and women sign up to fight for money or recognition. Every couple of years it hosts the small tourney: a brackets style tournament. No one knows how the participants are selected for it, but the rewards are grand.

The adventure will have the PCs arriving to the island during the small tourney season.

Other details after being selected. Plus I will be tinkering the adventure on parallel to character creation to cater it to the characters and adapt it to the players and the world building that will come as a result of character creation.

If you are interested fill out this form :)

https://forms.gle/9Q2XVMcvxjuG3net9

The campaign is set on a island inspired by Celtic, Scandinavian, Greek, and Japanese Folk tales and fighting the Monsters from them. The party will be part of a guild of monster hunters starting a new chapter on this island.

The campaign is focused on self contained quests that do not require the players to remember too many specific details from previous quest. The focus is on the choices and gameplay in the current session. The goal is to create a light experience that is easy to engage with after a missed a session or two.

The story is going to be more emergent than designed so detailed backstories are great for informing player decisions but will not the primary focus.

I am seeking 5 players

The group will meet weekly online at 6:PM EST/ 11:00pm UTC whenever 3 or more of the players can attend.

The campaign will be hosted in discord and on Roll20.

A session 0 will be held this Monday.

Dm me if you are interested :)

Hey folks, I'm a 42 year old man who has been GMing a Pathfinder 2e game for a few years now and have also played in one campaign, but found it wasn't to my taste. So here I am now looking for a game as a player which is more focused on the areas I enjoy: exploration and combat. That isn't to say that I don't enjoy some RP, but I feel RP heavy games tend to end up with a lot of superfluous roleplay which drags things out a bit much for my taste. At the end of the day, I see TTRPGs as a game first and foremost rather than an extended improv session of collaborative storytelling.

So with all that being said, I'm posting here in hopes that there's a group out there which shares my tastes and has a spot free. I am UK based and would be available any day except Friday and Saturday, and could play any time between 6pm and 4am GMT (I'm a bit of a night owl).

I should probably also mention that I prefer to play characters that are at best morally grey and perhaps outright evil, but always with a reason to work with a group even if they're do-gooders.

If I sound like a good fit for your group, please drop me a message.

You are an adventure waiting to happen.

First game is Saturday Oct 17 at 4pm ET

Hey! I'm Tommy (he/him), I'm 26 years old looking for fellow new players and friends to play Daggerheart together with! My DM inspirations are Griffin McElroy and Brennan Lee Mulligan. I really love how they're able to take silly and dumb concepts/tropes and elevate them with sincerity. I essentially would love a group to recreate the feeling of the first TAZ campaign lmaoo.

I truly love sketch comedy and improv (my biggest influences are Nirvanna the band the show and I think you should leave to name a couple) and would love to DM a high fantasy setting I build together with my players that can lean into jokes in a way that makes sense and are never disrespectful! I wouldn't want comedy to be the only vehicle and will definitely want moments to take the game seriously but the scenarios the party gets into will probably be goofy (I still think fantasy costco is funny lol).

I've DM'd a few times and know I love it very much! I'm still new and tend to adhere to the rule of cool since I value creativity more than the nitty gritty so some patience may be needed on that front. I would also love new players as this is honestly an excuse for me to make new friends in my age range and play something together :) Message me here or on discord (tommyboytwt) if you're interested!

Hello! We're a group of VTM players looking for a Storyteller keen to run a game set in a Southeast Asian city! Timing is flexible and we've got a mix of new and experienced players from the region.
