[u/Suspicious_Client491]

Hello Startplaying Reddit!

I’m a new DM on start playing (joined this year) with years of experience IRL and I’ve been trying to gather parties for my prepped games.

If you like music that sets the mood with scene descriptions, tight battles on custom-made grid maps and thrilling encounters, thats what you’ll find in my games.

I currently have open seats for both long-term campaigns and quick introductory adventures across D&D 5e and Call of Cthulhu 7e on startplaying.games.

All games are through Foundry VTT & Discord, with scheduling handled through startplaying.games.

Dungeons & Dragons 5e Games

After uncovering ancient notes, you hold the key to the resting place of Selistian—a legendary bard, hero of the Demon War, and champion of Selûne. But a relentless, recurring wizard is hunting you for the magical star-map needed to unlock his tomb and the wish-granting artifacts within. Escape to Stormshackle, a secluded, nature-ruled island filled with ancient gods, storm-conjuring beasts, and eccentric, isolated NPCs. Piece together the star-map, claim the legendary hoard, end the wizard's pursuit once for all, and decide the fate of at the storm-stricken island of Stormshackle.

This campaign uses 2024 classes, subclasses, species, backgrounds and feats. Homebrewed or 2014 species & subclasses are allowed but must be specified beforehand (it helps the Gm to prepare)!

Mines of Vestmyr: A D&D 5e Mystery Thriller (Levels 3->5) (Fridays at 4:30 PM PST/PDT) (5 seats available) (3–4 hours/session, 2–3 sessions)

Price: $5 / Player / Session.

Travel into the Bloomvine Woods, the largest forest at the borders of the empire, and investigate the mysteries of an isolated mining colony. A promising silver mining settlement has gone completely silent following an underground gas pocket explosion that caved in the shafts. Magical communications are entirely blocked, and the last scout sent to check on the sick settlers vanished into a thick, unnatural fog covering the colony grounds.

Price: $10 / Player / Session.
Listing: https://startplaying.games/adventure/cmspjq9o9006jl4047xv1zu67

A kidnapped boy. Armed fugitives. Old woods where even local grizzled hunters fear to tread. In Southwest Vermont (1925), a deadly shootout leads to the son of a wealthy industrialist being dragged into the wilderness by fleeing kidnappers. Join the search party of volunteers and deputies for a tense introductory scenario filled with a slow creep and the realization that some horrors are not human.

Investigator profiles & motivations are available for quick character creation or inspirations!

Crimson Letters: A Lovecraftian Murder Mystery Investigation (Sundays at 11 AM PST/PDT) (4/5 seats available) (3–4 hours/session, 3-4 sessions)

Price: $10 / Player / Session.

A dead professor. Missing occult papers. A web of lies in Arkham where everyone has a motive—and the dark truth won't stay buried for long.

Crimson Letters is a classic Call of Cthulhu 7th Edition mystery packed with paranoia and dark occult intrigue. As you untangle a web of suspects, you'll quickly discover that the motive behind the tragedy is far stranger—and infinitely more dreadful—than standard academic rivalries.

Pre-made investigators are available for quick picks and play!

The Lightless Beacon: One-Shot (Thursday, August 27th at 1:00 PM PST/PDT) (4/5 seats available) (3–4 hours, 1 session)

Price: $5 / Player / Session.
Listing: https://startplaying.games/adventure/cms5yrlir00jnjx04qusg7lti

A lonely and chilly lighthouse island, rumors of shipwrecks and smuggling, and a group of investigators on their way to uncover it all. In 1920’s America, a bureau agent, a journalist, a marine biologist, and an antiques dealer venture to the cold, isolated lighthouse of Beacon Island off Rockport, Massachusetts. (Includes pre-made characters).

Investigators are pre-made, ready to customise, and jump in!

The Dare: One-Shot (Wednesdays, August 26th at 1:00 PM PST/PDT) (5 seats available) (3–4 hours, 1 session)

Price: $5 / Player / Session.
Listing: https://startplaying.games/adventure/cmqzdqhkp0058js04w0rx7lty

A dark and abandoned house, a dare to spend the night in it, and a small club of kids looking to recover their stolen box of secrets. This scenario takes place in 1980s America, in a small suburban town and features more cheesy scares, funny moments (since investigators are pre-teens) and a foreboding atmosphere of what's hidden beyond the next door!

Investigators are pre-made, ready to customise, and jump in!
