Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5e 2014][Homebrew] A Court of Burning Hearts – A Political Fantasy Campaign

20 Upvotes

A throne is never truly secure.

I currently have a party of three players and I’m looking for one more to join and make a party of four.

The campaign will focus on:
• Court politics and intrigue
• Noble houses and rival factions
• Diplomacy and espionage
• Building relationships, alliances, and rivalries
• Political marriages and family obligations
• Adventure beyond the palace when the story calls for it

While there will be combat and traditional D&D adventuring, the heart of the campaign is roleplay and character relationships. Your decisions in the throne room may shape the Empire just as much as your victories on the battlefield.

This is an 18+ campaign. Mature themes, including romance, sexuality, political marriages, seduction, violence, and other adult subject matter will be present when they naturally fit the story. Any intimate scenes will be handled with player consent and respect for everyone’s boundaries.

Whether you choose to protect the Emperor, manipulate him, challenge his authority, become his closest confidant, or secretly prepare to inherit the crown yourself, every decision will have consequences.

If you enjoy games like Dragon Age, Crusader Kings, or Game of Thrones this campaign is designed with that style of political storytelling in mind.

I’m especially interested in players who enjoy character-driven roleplay, complicated relationships, political intrigue, and creating dramatic meaningful moments with the other players.

If this sounds like your kind of campaign, tell me a little about yourself, your D&D experience, and what kind of character you’d like to play.

We play on Saturdays at 2pm pst. Over on discord.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][Other][CST] GM doing interest Check for a Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers game! Will be played using the Crucible 7 Essence 20 system!

• Upvotes

Ten thousand years ago, the sinister and villainous Rita Repulsa tormented the universe as the Empress of Evil until she was sealed by an ancient and powerful group of beings known as The Guardian Beasts. These Guardian Beasts sacrificed their freedom and corporeal forms in order to seal the Space Witch in her prison, forever being sealed inside ancient Power Coins that only a chosen group of warriors can harness power from. Now, centuries later, Rita Repulsa has escaped her prison... and it has become time for those prophesized chosen few to take on the mantle of Earth's protectors— The Power Rangers!

Hello! My name is Binary! I'm 24, and I've been Gamemastering for about two or so years. I'm rather amateurish, preferring to use less popular and fandom-specific systems for my games. Recently, I attempted to run a Power Rangers game using the Teens with Attitude system. That campaign, despite all it's flaws, managed to last a good and solid year and a half.

Since then, I've learned a lot about Roll20 and Crucible 7's official Power Rangers system, to the point where I feel ready to start planning and recruiting players for another Long Term game utilizing the very system advertised in this post. This LFG post is an interest check meant to help me find players who might be interested in a long term game of this scale and scope, and this post will give you all the information you need to decide if it's the right game for you!

The Premise of the game follows a Hard Reboot of the original Power Rangers TV-Show, set in present day Earth during the year 2026. It takes place in Angel Grove California and is a reimagining of the original Mighty Morphin' Era following a cast of original characters, with twists and creative liberties meant to keep the game fresh and exciting, while still maintaining all the familiar iconography.

You and four other players will take on the roles of Teenagers in Angel Grove starting their Freshman year at Angel Grove High School, who find themselves suddenly chosen to be Earth's protectors against a very ancient and very evil threat that intends to dominate their world. My intention for this game is to go all the way from Freshman year to senior year, and potentially beyond if the group has a good enough synergy! Let's not get ahead of ourselves, though.

This is a game I plan to start running sometime in mid-to-late December. I am making an interest check post in order to start gathering players, and in the submission form— more information will be given about how I plan to get to know you and the other players I'll be recruiting for the campaign. So, if you're interested in playing, please feel free to fill out this google form! The submission form will close sometime between November 1st to November 7th, depending on how many submissions it gets.

Thanks for reading! Hope to see a submission from you!

Player(s) Needed by GM [online][other] [Blades in the dark] [Fridays GMT 6pm EST 1pm] Looking for one or two additional players

• Upvotes

Experienced group of D&D players moving to Blades in the Dark, possibly back to either 5e or Call of Chthulu in the future, looking to add an additional player to our roster. We've been playing together for a little under a year, but a couple of our players have had schedule changes that prevent them from joining us. I'm currently GMing, we were playing 5e going through Wild Beyond the Witchlight but had two players have schedule shifts, so we thought we'd pivot.

All of us are new to Blades, so we'd welcome a veteran player, but also would happily learn together! We play on roll20 with voice on discord. We're bicoastal in the US and also have a couple of players in Europe, and this just happened to be the time that worked for people!

If you're interested and want to chat about it, DM me here or drop me a friend request on discord (username is paigesings)

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5e 2014][Fridays][EST][30+][CoS] Looking for eager roleplayers to get lost in the mists with this winter…

10 Upvotes

How do you do? Our Game Master feels it would be a little unkind to present this campaign without just a friendly word of warning: We are about to unfold the story of Strahd von Zarovich, a conqueror of man and master of death, who sought to possess the soul of his unrequited love without reckoning upon God. It is one of the strangest tales ever told. It deals with the two great mysteries of creation: life and death. I think it will thrill you. It may shock you. It might even horrify you. So, if any of you feel that you do not care to subject your nerves to such a strain, now's your chance to uh, well, — we warned you!

If such an introduction doesn’t get your attention, well maybe this opportunity is not for you (/s). As someone who has ran this module numerous times over the past 10 years of its existence, let me preface and say, it’s impossible for me to escape Curse of Strahd. I have most recently completed a three-year, 64 session campaign which saw my players start as common folk and develop into warriors, powerful enough to combat the menagerie of horrors this module contains. A year has passed, and it’s time to do it all over again.

As the title suggests, I am looking for 3-4 enthusiastic role-players to join me in the mists of Barovia to play through Curse of Strahd in all its gothic horror glory. Sessions will be on Friday evenings (preferably weekly, or bi-weekly), likely from 8p-12a EST. Consistency is key, if you feel that you cannot commit to the day and time for a long campaign, respectfully I ask you reconsider your application.

Always have room for fun and laughs at the table, but looking for likeminded friends who can lean into the fear elements and add to the eerie ambience of the module. The primer notes below should set the scene:

A Party of Non-Adventurers

Barovia is a deadly place for the brash, for people who wander off the map, or fools who poke monsters with sticks. CoS is strongest when played through an alternate perspective:
• ⁠You are level one characters
• ⁠You are not heroes (yet)
• ⁠You are not warriors - you may be martially trained, you may be able to defend yourself, but monsters are things you don’t want to mess with.

The Focus is not Strahd’s destruction, it is escaping Barovia - try to escape and in the course of this adventure you will become capable of stopping Strahd, if you so choose. This is not “hunt the vampire and win”, this is about the growth and maturation of the characters as you progress through the dangers of Barovia. Not about saving the land, but becoming the people that can save the land.

Your humble Game Master:

A father. A horror-lover first and fantasy-enjoyer second, game and dungeon master for over a decade, black metal and punk spinner, Kurt Vonnegut nut, hockey and baseball watcher, and Twin Peaks superfan. (If any of these things interest you, great! - if not, maybe you can share some of yours with me.)

Prerequisites and Other Details

- Must be available at the day/times discussed above
- No forms of hate or discrimination will be allowed at this table!
- Must be 30 years or older (sorry kids!)
- A respectful and collaborative role player who can lean into the horror/fear aspects of the game
- Combat has its time to shine in my game, but is most often narratively important and few and far between the roleplaying/exploration (the sword is not usually the answer)- if you are overly focused on min-maxing and killing monsters, this is not likely the table for you.
-Must have a stable internet connection with a decent microphone (minimal interruptions/background noise)
- Will use Roll20 for VTT and Discord
- While cameras are not required, I do prefer to play with them on to make roleplaying easier and keep from speaking over each other.
- I also typically record audio from our sessions (not to publish, but to save me from note taking - and they’re fun as hell to listen back to).

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5e 2014][Homebrew][Fridays 8pm-12am EST/GMT-4]Looking for 1-2 Players for Our Long-Running 1910s-themed Campaign

3 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I am the DM of this campaign and welcome to the world of Forgotten Cradle!

This is a homebrew 1910s-themed campaign set on the continent of Vinost that is recovering from two terrible wars that nearly broke the continent and changed the paradigm of the world. Vinost is a place where alchemy and science reign supreme with many advancements made through one or the other.

This is a nobledark campaign where the people are mostly good and there is hope for the world albeit the circumstances are dire with many sacrifices being made to hold back the dark.

Currently the campaign is focused on an island archipelago ruled by a number of yakuza families. Due to circumstances of the party becoming opposed to the main antagonizing force that is trying to bring forth a new form of governance under his rule, the party is aligned with the yakuza.
The party is called the Oathkeepers, who are bond by blood with the yakuza patriarch of the Orchis family. Their current mission has taken them to a grassland steppe high up on a plateau. They're searching for the steppe's missing Khan, who ventured into newly uncovered ancient ruins to find and stop the source of a mysterious sickness killing her people.

Prerequisites:

  • 18+ only
  • Decent microphone
  • Have a Discord account
  • Able to deal with occasional dark themes (details in form)

I will reach out to you through your preferred form of communication be it reddit, email, discord, etc. for any follow up. If things turn out well with the follow up, there will be a session-0 with the rest of the players to determine if we are the right fit for each other.

Feel free to ask any questions or share any comments here. Thank you and take care!

We currently meet Fridays from 8:00pm EST to around 12am EST.

If you are interested in joining the campaign please fill out the form here: https://forms.gle/4f8bRVPsyf7mRnxa7

Player(s) Needed by GM [Offline] [CoC] [Baltimore] [Fridays at 7]

5 Upvotes

I will be running some Call of Cthulhu one shots on Friday nights at my house in Hampden starting at 7. My goal is to start a long term campaign. Beginners are welcome. Pre-generated character sheets will be provided until you’re comfortable making your own.

Call of Cthulhu is set in the 1920s. However, I believe that if we’re playing in a world where eldritch horrors exist, we can also play in a world lacking much of the racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. that existed in those times. However, your flashlight will be heavy, clunky and period appropriate.

If you are interested and willing to be patient with a relatively new GM, I will send you an application.Please do not let inexperience in CoC prevent you from applying. If you enjoy heavy role play, detective work, teamwork, horror, and light combat then this is the TTRPG for you.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][CET][5e 2024][SAT CET 5pm][18+] Replacement player for ongoing campaign

3 Upvotes

One of my players had to leave for personal reasons, so i am looking for a replacement player. The story is about a mysterious plague that you were tasked to find out more about. The group will be able to tell you more about what they have found out already. Youre playing on a homebrew continent that coexists with faerun. The campaign has been going on for almost a year now, but there will be no problem weaving you into the story.

You will start at level 8 and well talk together about items/feats for the start. I like to give out strong items or even free feats from special story moments, so the current group is way stronger than any ordinary level 8 group. Content wise anything that you can find on dndbeyond is allowed. But i might have to tweak a few busted options (shoutout to circle of entropy).

Well be playing in foundry, so a little bit of capable hardware is needed. Its nothing too bad, but your pc should be able to handle animated maps. Here is an application form. If there are any questions, feel free to message me :)

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5e (2014)][Thursdays 7PM EST][Homebrew][+21] The Forest that Drank the Stars.

2 Upvotes

Hi, I am trying to start DMing a new campaign. I am looking for about 4 more players. It would be online only and on Thursday's at 7pm EST. I am in the early phases of writing so I don't have a set start date in mind yet, but I would like to start gathering new friends for the adventure and doing character creation so I can tailor the story to the characters within it a bit.

The campaign itself will be longer, though I don't have a specific time frame, one that ends when we get to the end. I am thinking it will only go until about 10th or 12th level. It will start at 1st level. I am aiming for a spooky, mystery/thriller vibe, I have never really written in the genre, but I would like to try my hand at it. I would prefer a group that is 21+, but I am open to 18+. I play on Fantasy Grounds for VTT and Discord for voice call.

Please feel free to comment any questions and I will respond as I am able. I live in Guam for the time being, so the time zones get weird. If you are interested please PM me a bit about yourself, your character concept(s), and your play style and experience! Happy gaming everyone!

Player(s) Needed by GM [PF2e][ONLINE][18+] Looking for ONE Player for an Ongoing Steampunk Campaign!

2 Upvotes

Hello! I'm currently looking for one player to join an ongoing Pathfinder 2e campaign after we've taken a short hiatus. One of our players can no longer attend due to scheduling conflicts, and with the campaign undergoing a bit of a soft reset, I feel that this is an excellent opportunity to introduce someone new to the table!

The campaign takes place in a wasteland region of my homebrew world, heavily inspired by the steampunk themes of Outlaws of Alkenstar. I've taken the city of Alkenstar and the Mana Wastes from Golarion and tweaked them to fit my own setting. You can expect plenty of constructs to fight, alongside traveling out to the wastes at times, and plenty of opportunities for character-driven storytelling, given that I built this campaign's premise around individual nemesis of the party all working together against them.

You will be joining with the expectations that your character will be introduced at the beginning of our next session, being moved in a prison cart that the party will intercept. We can talk more about that once you join! ;)

  • System: Pathfinder 2e
  • Gametime: Sundays at 6:30 PM CST
  • Platform: Foundry VTT and Discord (for voice)
  • Party Level: 5
  • Starting Equipment: Standard RAW character creation rules, for your level of course.
  • Requirements: A decent computer capable of running Foundry and a working, decent quality microphone (no ear bud/cheap mics, sorry! too many issues in the past).

If you are interested in joining this game, we just need you to fill out this form:

https://forms.gle/ichyQxTc2DYe9kDt8

I will do my best to reach out ASAP, but I apologize in advance for any waiting, we usually end up getting a lot of applications.

I want to emphasize that consistent attendance is extremely important to me. My scheduling flexibility is fairly limited, and I'm looking for someone who can reliably commit to showing up every Sunday for our sessions. If your availability is frequently uncertain or subject to last-minute changes, I would genuinely recommend looking for another game that better fits your free time.

I'm looking to start an online session of the campaign "Curse of Strahd". I have only ran one trial campaign and then the group fell apart due to scheduling issues. I understand CoS is an expansive campaign that can take a long time. I'm laid back when it comes to rules and prioritize my players having a good experience over following the rules to a T. I'm also open to suggestions/advice on how to be a good DM and will take any criticism like a champ, I just want a real DM experience and I want to learn from any future mistakes. All players are welcome, there is only one spot left!

GM Needed by Existing Group [Online][5e 2024] Friday 11am PDT — Mid-term D&D campaign, we just hit 5th level

• Upvotes

I am seeking DM for a 8-12 session long D&D 5E 2024 campaign and I'm looking for a DM to run it.

The Game

This will be a mid-term campaign using the D&D 5E 2024 ruleset. We're running core content through D&D Beyond with slight homebrew on top—nothing massive, just a few tweaks to spells and items.

System

- D&D 5E (2024)

Schedule

- Start time: 11am PDT

Format

- Platform: The 4th Wall VTT (Virtual Tabletop), at the4thwall.app.
4th Wall allows you to play 3d models that are in world and you move and speak through them through a web cam. If you ever wanted to direct films, this is a perfect VTT for that. 

Players

- Current party level: 5th level

What we're looking for

We're specifically seeking a DM who can commit to running a short campaign at the time above. We want someone who can manage the table, run combat and roleplay scenes, and work with the slight homebrew we're using. Send me your details and how much it will cost per session.

A few practical notes

- We already have a group at 5th level and want continuity rather than rotating one-shots.
- The homebrew is light; I can share the specific changes up front so you can see what to expect.
- Tell us your availability around the 11am PDT slot and whether you're open to regular weekly sessions or a different cadence. The game current meets at 11am on Fridays. 

How to apply

Send me your DM experience, and why this interests you and will get right back to you. Come find me on Discord at firstmate2302 and I can answer questions you may have.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Other][Online][DIE: RPG][WoD][Multiple Systems][Wednesdays][MST] Existing Group Looking for Players for One-Shot

3 Upvotes

Quick Information

System: DIE: RPG & Vampire The Masquerade: 5th Edition

Platforms: Discord & FoundryVTT

Time: Weekly on Wednesdays, 5:30 PM MST - 9:30 PM MST

Hello! I'm Clover and I'm looking for 1 - 2 more players to bring our Wednesday group up to 4/5. We've jumped around, trying out a couple systems including D&D 5e, City of Mist, and most recently a Fallout campaign. I'm currently looking to try out a couple systems to hopefully find one that fits for a medium to long-term campaign, and will be running some one-shots to try these out (as I have not personally GMed any of them before), and to see if party dynamic works out before any long-term commitments.

If you're looking to apply for this group you should be open to trying out a couple systems before we settle on one, although if things work out well, we can easily transition with one-shot characters into a full length campaign. The two main systems the group has an interest in playing are DIE: RPG, and Vampire the Masquerade: 5th Edition.

About the Game(s)

DIE is a comic book series by Kieron Gillen and Stephanie Hans, where a group of real-world, deeply-flawed individuals are transported to a fantasy world via a predatory, sinister roleplaying game. There, they’re transformed into Paragons, each of whom is a warped take on the core fantasy roleplaying classes. In this world, they get to confront how their lives have diverted from their youthful fantasies, to confront their darker sides and buried secrets. They generally cause trouble. It’s Jumani, with a much darker coat of paint.

You make your own social group of messed up, real-world humans. They’re dragged to a world which echoes your own strengths and weaknesses, failures, losses and successes back at you. It is your fantasy world, personal and horrifically yours...

The classes to me are the main draw as players for this system, having some of the most unique and interesting theming and abilities I've seen in a TTRPG. A look at the first issue (which is free) of the comic series the TTRPG comes from will help for understanding the hook of DIE much quicker.

This would be the first system we try out with a one-shot and has a very easy ruleset to pick up on. The other main thing I would mention for this system is its recommendation against doubling up on the classes, letting each PC be unique in their abilities (as shown in the comics) so keep in mind 2 or more classes you would be interested in playing.

The setting for DIE is very malleable depending on the types of characters at the table and is shaped by a "palette" made together by the GM and players, so a proper "campaign pitch" has not been included here.

A further pitch about the setting and system for VTM 5e is available but will not be included here for readability. If you'd like to hear more we can chat during interviews and I can send over some reading material.

About the Group

We have been playing since around 2018, having a few player rotations throughout the years as schedules change. The current group most of us generally have played at least a campaign or two together. With the systems we're interested in playing, a lot of focus will be put on roleplay and fleshing out individual characters so people interested in that kind of game, and that aren't afraid to be invested, talkative, and most of all fans of the other PCs will be a good fit as these are party-based games at their core. We will all be new players to these systems, but generally having some experience with roleplaying and TTRPGS as a whole is going to help as well as we're all pretty experienced in the genre, likewise this group is likely going to move at a pace that is not as beginner friendly.

This group is open to anybody and everybody who would like to apply as we do not support discrimination of any kind. I have a few things I'm personally looking for in an applicant that I'd like to outline:

  1. Please have access to Discord, Roll20 (via a computer), and a microphone so that you will be able to access everything needed to play in the campaign.
  2. Please make sure you can routinely show up to the session time, obviously real life happens but always try and shoot me a heads-up asap if you know you're going to miss a session.
  3. Please be willing to interact, roleplay, and communicate with your fellow players and myself. I'm always open to feedback if it feels like something isn't working.

Don't be afraid to get into character! All of us at the table myself included try our best to get immersed and tell a fun story.

About the GM

You can call me Clover (He/Him), I'm 22 and I've been running TTRPGs for the better part of 8 years across various systems. I've found myself drawn to less mechanically intense more RP-oriented systems as of late and have done my best to immerse myself in the worlds of the systems I've pitched to the group over the past few months. I'm an avid reader of the DIE series, caught up with everything that's come out for it so far, taking lots of inspiration for a possible campaign. I've also got into the WoD setting through actual plays like City Council of Darkness and Norfolk Wizard Game, having created a homebrew chronicle which would be the setting for a Vampire the Masquerade game (set in Charleston, South Carolina).

I love to find and create media for the sake of immersion with campaign playlists, art and NPC references, and maps for most settings and systems. I am against the use of any AI-generated references and would ask that they are not used in regards to this group, doing my best to make sure they are not included in any of my personal references.

Applications!

If you've made it this far feel free to drop an application over at the google form. After that I'll setup some discord interviews so we can have a quick chat and answer any questions you may have for me.

The date for Session 0 will likely be November 4th which will be for discussing campaign content, filling out Lines and Veils, and creating characters. The following Wednesday, November 11th (schedules permitting) will be our one-shot.

"In many ways, our life here is in the shadow of the bomb. Without it, the world would be a very different place indeed."

-Divines-the-Stars, Uktena Theurge

The year is 1973; the place, Farmington, New Mexico. You are well on your way to recognition within the wider world. You have a few endeavors under your belt, survived and staved back death. The greatest challenges lie ahead: there is a dread wind that blows from the south, bringing with it decay and corruption. A united front will be needed to save you all.

My style revolves around weird happenings: unpacking strange and horrifying circumstances week-to-week. The game has taken place in the remote Four Corners region of the United States, with a focus on New Mexico primarily. The pack has seen their fair share of struggle up to this point, so new PCs will be Rank 2 with 32 earned experience. We are currently on Session 8, our party a Bone Gnawer Ahroun and a Mokolé peacekeeper looking to bridge gaps between fera.

If you are interested, feel free to DM me or drop me a line on Discord at decisions_and_revisions.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][D&D 5E 2014][One shot][31st Oct 22:30 IST] The Haunt. Looking for 1-2 players

0 Upvotes

Level 5 oneshot

This is my 3rd time running The Haunt, and it's my go-to module whenever I update Foundry and want to see how it runs before using it for my regular games.

Currently, I have 3 players confirmed and am discussing with a 4th. I need 1 more player (2 if it doesn't doesn't work out 4th).

It's a sort of long one-shot, possibly taking 2 sessions. The plan is to run a ~6-hour session and finish it in one go, or return next week (same day and time) to conclude.

The way I have Foundry set up required Tailscale almost a year back. However, a direct link seems to work fine (based on a recent test with one player online, not sure if it can handle all players online at the samet ime)

Anyone interested, please fill out the form.

Player(s) Needed by GM [online] [5e 2014] [Sundays 2PM EDT] Alaska: The Lightbringer, beginner dm looking for players for campaign

3 Upvotes

Hi, we're a group of three relatively new players who just started a lightly hombrewed campaign. We are currently only one session in and are looking for 1-2 more players. The party consists of a human fighter and reborn sorcerer.
New players are welcome, but you should be open to roleplay since (at least so far) the campaign has mostly consisted of it. Other than that you're preferably 16-20 years old.
People of any identity are obviously welcome.

With that said, here's the pitch:
A group of travelers are sent on a mission to find the Light Bringer, a raven that protects Alaska, so they can stop the awakening of the giant that once horded light from the world. As they search for the raven, the beauty of the Alaskan wildlife and indigenous culture reveals itself to the travelers, along with a dark evil that threatens to destroy it.

Setting:
The story takes place in Alaska, so think rainy forests, cold tundras and large bodies of water for the terrain. The campaign does take place in the real world, but in a version of it where fantasy creatures and classes are considered normal. The genre is mainly folklore fantasy, with many of the plotlines being based on actual Native Alaskan folklore and mythology! The tone is pretty middle ground between light-hearted and serious. Things may get dark and sad along the way, The campaign may take over a year to complete.

Other info
- campaigns are bi-weekly (at least for now)
- VTT is roll20

If you're interested apply with this form and you'll get a dm on discord if we're considering you for the group: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdTFUn694unKQQELqXG_bVWSlkN44PPIdomzgAwXIqUNjhTNA/viewform?usp=dialog

Player(s) Needed by GM Looking for players for my cosmic horror/comedy campaign, Jawahir Alghad (Online, 18+ LGBTQ friendly, Dnd 5e 2014)

Jawahir Alghad, A D&D 5e (2014) Homebrew World

System: D&D 5e (2014)
Age requirement: 18+
Looking for: Players, 4-5

Hello, hello! Welcome to Jawahir Alghad, your local chaotic D&D community, where the lore is questionable, the world is enormous, and the DM is probably responsible for at least 70% of the problems.

Our setting is Jaan, a world dreamed into existence by Ilyx, the being responsible for the questionable decision to make existence a thing in the first place.

Jaan is home to all sorts of strange places, from the sweet-but-suspicious Candy Land to the ancient lands of Kachhua, the unsettling Land of Mirrors, the mysterious Meridian, and even a Norse-inspired region. There are plenty of stories to uncover, places to explore, questionable NPCs to befriend, and terrible decisions to make along the way.

We are looking for players who enjoy roleplay, collaborative storytelling, exploration, lore, and a healthy amount of comedy-induced suffering. Whether you are a veteran adventurer or someone who still occasionally forgets what their own character does, you are welcome here.

Expect a homebrew world with plenty of room for character-driven stories, weird encounters, and adventures that may or may not go according to plan. Probably not.

Come for the adventure. Stay because you find dobbo the gobbo adoptable.

And if the DM asks, "Are you sure?" You probably shouldn't be.

Please dm if interested, thank you very much!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Offline][D&D 5e 2024][KMC / Kaiserslautern, Germany][LGBTQIA+ Friendly] Experienced DM Looking for Players - Weekly Sunday Games in Heltersberg

2 Upvotes

Greetings, adventurers!

I'm looking to put together a regular, in-person Dungeons & Dragons group in the Kaiserslautern Military Community (KMC) area. My wife and I live in Heltersberg, Germany, and I'll be hosting games at our home.

I've been a Dungeon Master for over 20 years, and I'm hoping to find a good group of people who enjoy collaborative storytelling, memorable characters, exploration, a little chaos, and, most importantly, having a great time around the table.

New players are absolutely welcome! You don't need decades of experience, an encyclopedic understanding of the rules, or a collection of expensive miniatures. If you're interested in learning D&D and willing to participate in the story, you're welcome.

The Campaign: The Children Who Never Came Home

London, England — 1904.

Children have begun disappearing from their bedrooms, the streets of London, and Kensington Gardens. The authorities suspect kidnappers, but witnesses describe impossible things: strange lights above the rooftops, a boy who can fly, and a mysterious ship with black sails.

One missing child returns with saltwater in his shoes and memories of a pirate captain with a hook for a hand.

Elsewhere, sailors tell stories of impossible shores, and old maps hint at places that shouldn't exist.

What begins as an Edwardian investigation will gradually become an adventure into a much larger fantasy world, inspired by classic literature, folklore, and fairy tales.

Think Sherlock Holmes meets Peter Pan, with mystery, exploration, swashbuckling adventure, magical wonders, and some darker undertones.

The campaign will use D&D 5e (2024 rules). It's designed to be an immersive, character-driven adventure where your decisions matter. Expect roleplay, combat, exploration, puzzles, and plenty of opportunities for the story to go somewhere I didn't anticipate!

You do not need to know the source material to enjoy the campaign.

Game Details

Location: Heltersberg, Germany, within the greater KMC area

Format: In person, at our home

Preferred Day: Sundays

Frequency: Ideally weekly

Session Length: Approximately 3 hours, with the possibility of longer sessions when everyone is available and interested

System: D&D 5e, using the 2024 rules

Starting Level: 1

Experience: All experience levels welcome, including complete beginners

Table Space: Seating for six at the gaming table

Parking: Ample parking available

Session Zero: Yes! We'll discuss characters, expectations, boundaries, scheduling, and the overall campaign before getting started

I'm not looking for professional voice actors or people who memorize every rule. I'm looking for players who are enthusiastic, respectful, reasonably consistent with attendance, and willing to help create a great story together.

I enjoy weaving character backstories into the world, rewarding creative thinking, and letting the party's decisions meaningfully affect what happens next.

There will be serious moments, ridiculous moments, heroic victories, unfortunate dice rolls, and probably at least one spectacularly terrible decision that becomes a running joke for years.

That's part of the fun.

A Little About Our Home and Hosting

My wife and I enjoy having people over, and we'd like this to be more than just a group of strangers showing up to roll dice. Ideally, we'll build a regular circle of gaming friends.

A few things to know:

Family home: We have three children, including two teenagers, so this is a lived-in family household.

Pets: We have a house cat, and our approximately 82-pound Labrador mix will eventually be joining us in Germany. Please keep that in mind if you have allergies or concerns about animals.

Smoking: Permitted outside only.

Alcohol: Moderate, responsible drinking at the gaming table is fine. We're here to enjoy ourselves, and everyone should be able to participate comfortably.

Food and drinks: We're happy to share what we have and enjoy hosting. We just ask that everyone contribute occasionally if they're partaking. Bring snacks, drinks, something to share, or whatever works for you. No need to make it complicated.

Atmosphere: Relaxed, friendly, welcoming, and respectful. We're here to have fun, not argue endlessly about rules or turn the game into a competition between players and the DM.

You don't need to be military-affiliated to join. Anyone in the area who's able to attend regularly is welcome to reach out.

Also Starting a Tabletop Gaming Group!

Separately from the D&D campaign, my wife and I are also interested in establishing a broader local tabletop gaming group.

That could include board games, card games, other tabletop RPGs, and general game nights with people who enjoy the hobby.

The idea is to meet other gamers in the KMC area and hopefully build a little gaming community where people can get together regularly, try different games, and make friends.

You don't have to be interested in D&D to be interested in the tabletop group, and vice versa!

Interested?

Send me a DM or comment below with a little about yourself:

Are you interested in the D&D campaign, the tabletop gaming group, or both?

What's your experience with D&D or tabletop gaming? Beginners are welcome!

Would Sunday games generally work for your schedule?

What do you enjoy most about tabletop gaming: roleplay, storytelling, combat, exploration, strategy, or just hanging out with good people?

We'll work out the exact start time and other details once we have a group together. I'll share the precise address privately with confirmed participants and our group's Discord.

I'm really looking forward to getting a regular table going again. After more than two decades behind the DM screen, the best part of D&D is still watching a group of people turn an idea into a story none of us could have created alone.

If you're in the KMC/Kaiserslautern area and have been looking for an in-person gaming group, I'd love to hear from you!

May your dice roll well, and may your characters survive their first encounter.

Closed [Online] [Other] [Unknown Armies] [CDT/GMT-5] [18+] Broken people conspiring to fix the world

4 Upvotes

Hey there. I'm recruiting for a new Unknown Armies 3e campaign. No previous experience is necessary, just a perchant for the weird. If you're unfamiliar with Unknown Armies, I've put together an overview of the setting at http://www.twincitiesrpg.com/files/UAIntro.pdf

The group consists of myself as GM (60M) and three players (1xM, 2xF), and I'm looking to fill spot 4 of 4. We're LGBTQIA+ friendly and very easy-going. GM experience-wise, I’ve run UA in all its versions nearly a quarter century now, so you’d be in good hands. We completed Session Zero, but unfortunately had a player drop out due to Real Life™, so the game hasn't quite started yet.

Sessions will be once-a-week on Tuesdays at 7PM CDT (GMT-5). We're using Discord for voice, Foundry VTT for sheets, rolls, etc., and we have a wiki for journaling. Drop me a note if this sounds like something you'd be interested in.
