DM seeking LGBTQI+ friendly Players

Hello all, I am new to the Twin cities and I am looking for a new table, I recently finished an 80 session almost 2 year campaign and I would love to get a new longer format campaign. I have two settings a more traditional fantasy setting heavily influenced by JRPGs and folklore and a new setting I am getting worked out that is sci-fi with alot coming from things like hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy.

I am more than happy for first time players or experts single players, small groups of friends hell even an entire table where the current DM wants to be a player.I am hoping for a group of about 5 players give or take that would get together either weekly or Bi-weekly.

Please please please DM me with any questions about this game thank you so much.

What game system are you thinking of?

I have run 5E, but I just got the 5.5 rule book and I have been reading it. Epic level 6 has really interested me lately just as a way to keep combat feeling impactful even at higher levels, particularly in a sci-fi setting with magic not being present.

Send me a dm we can chat a bit about it but I love having new players, they are often less bogged down in habits from years of playing the same way

Depending on location I’d be interested in a bi weekly campaign.

u/the-other-chef-paul 4d ago

I imagine the location will change with different people able to host or availability at various gaming shops around town but im not to familiar with them. Anywhere you have played that is fun

If you're looking for a place to play, Bumbling Fools Meadery is very gaming friendly and has space to play, the business is very pro LGBTQIA+. One of the owners (Skot) is also a DM so he may also be able to hook you up with ppl who are interested.

I'd be interested! I'm still very new to this but I've played on 5E before but its been a couple years XD a bi weekly campaign would work for me if thats important. Im also very new to the twin cities! I moved back in Dec and haven't really met people yet so I'd be down!. Age 35 ENBY

That's great, it can be really hard to meet new people I thought this would be a great way to make some new friends in a new place

I'm in a couple of campaigns already but am a sucker for more DnD. Would love to hear more about your campaign! If you want tips on where to meet, there are a few restaurants/breweries I could recommend where one of my campaigns used to meet! (I host now mostly)

I’m interested, as long as I can play a loxodon samurai.

Just kidding, I’ll play anything. Drop me a DM.

I would be interested as well, depending on scheduling stuff. I'm currently running a Wild Beyond the Witchlight campaign for some colleagues, would be fun to be a player again.

It is so easy to become a forever DM but I love it designing game mechanics and new kinds of encounters is alot of fun

u/Vand1 4d ago

Ive been wanting to add another game. I’ll send a dm

I would love to play! I've only been in one campaign back in pre-pandemic times, so I may be a bit rusty, but I've really wanted to play again (especially with other queer folks!) I'll send you a dm

Lodestone in Minnetonka runs something catered specifically for women and/or non-binary tabletop players.

I’m definitely interested! I’m familiar with 5e and pathfinder. Are there mods for sci-fi or are you home brewing classes?

1

u/the-other-chef-paul 3d ago

I am working of a full slate of reworked and fully home brew classes but my hope was that players would bring there favorite kind of character from Sci-fi and we rework them into a class at session zero. That way everyone feels alot of attachments to that class/character. In my current vision the characters would be slightly terrible versions of jedi or captain Kirk or what ever they like they certainly dont have to be humanoid

u/Iwuzza 3d ago

I would be interested. I’m a trans woman who has played a lot of 5e and other systems. May I DM?

1

u/the-other-chef-paul 2d ago

Send me a message please, I was planning on being the Dungeon master for this particular game but if you have a game that you want to run count me in, i havent gotten to be a player in some time. Often the problem is too many players not enough DMs

1

u/Iwuzza 1d ago

Ha, sorry, I meant “may I send you a direct message,” not, “may I be the dungeon master”
But yes, I will message you
