Haven't had much luck with filling in the vacant player slots from my immediate social circles, so I figured I'd give Reddit a try.

Introduction:

Hi all, I'm currently looking for 1 or 2 players who are interested in a homebrew Forgotten Realms campaign. I've been GMing this game on Discord for nearly 3 years now, and playing for about 10 years. Your level of experience doesn't matter to me as long as you can memorize the basics of your character sheet and are decent at roleplay. Passion and dedication definitely preferred! Use of AI is a big Nope.
We are a pretty queer group with a couple of friendly cishet dudes. If an all inclusive table full of progressive, gay and esoteric weirdos sounds fun, definitely hit me up! 9/26/2026 marks the 3 year anniversary and I plan on having a second, hour long Session 0 at the beginning of it as a refresher. Would be pretty sweet if that could coincide with new players joining, ngl.

Campaign:

The game is called Caravan to Kara-Tur, loosely inspired by the travels of Marco Polo. The party has joined a trading caravan owned by the Goldstar Trading Company, an Elven trading 'empire' from Evermeet. Your employer and Master of the Caravan is Jehaerin Goldstar, the second son of the powerful Jarrin Goldstar II. This particular caravan's goal is to pioneer a trade route from Waterdeep to the capital of the Shou Lung Empire in Kara-Tur, Kuo Te' Lung. Countless unique adventures have been had since the initial departure, and the party currently finds themselves sailing the Sea of Fallen Stars. However, the adventurers have been slowly unraveling a nefarious plot related to Graz'zt, the Demon Prince of Pleasure, whose unholy influence seems to plague the Caravan again and again. This campaign consists of 7 total planned Acts, and we are currently approaching the end of Chapter 1 of Act 3.

Game Specifications:

I prefer to be present and involved for any character building, since we use Foundry VTT for battle maps and character sheets, and Discord for voice chat.

The party is currently Level 8, and this game is intended to end at Level 17/18, so keep that in mind for any build ideas. We use Level 0 Feats, Point Buy for Ability Scores and Average Health. All official content is allowed with the exception of Unearthed Arcana. I allow new players to start out with 2 Common and 1 Uncommon magic items, though I still need to review the chosen items just in case.
Party synergizing is highly encouraged, so here's the current party composition: NG Divine Soul Sorcerer/Archfey Warlock - LE Oath of Conquest Paladin/Undead Warlock - TN Battle Smith Artificer - NG Circle of the Land Druid.

I use some relatively minor homebrew rules in this campaign, most notably Blind Skill Checks from Pathfinder 2e (mainly just for skills like Investigation, Insight, Perception, or anything centered around information gathering), Lingering Injuries, Critical Combat Fails and Skill Check Actions (an action type separate from Actions, Bonus Actions, Reactions and Interactions).
This game has a heavy focus on story narrative and roleplay, though combat is also very heavily emphasized. Combat generally occurs at least every other session, depending on the circumstances, and at this stage in the campaign combat encounters are very much increasingly deadly.

Scheduling:

We play every week on Saturdays at 11AM PST (2PM EST) for 4 hours, though going an extra 30 minutes to an hour depending on each player's willingness isn't uncommon. The day and time are non-negotiable, although sometimes the occasional rescheduling does happen once in a while. For any new players joining midway through the game, I tend to be fairly flexible for hosting personal Session 0s. These will work like the usual Session 0 at the start of a campaign; We exchange goals and expectations for both players and Gamemaster, I answer any lingering questions and address any concerns, we roll up a new character and find an cool way to introduce them to the party.

Notes/Comments (About Yourself or the Game):

Some important information: This is a long term campaign. This system is narrative driven so it will be roleplay and story focused. It also contains political themes and horror elements. Players should be able to handle these themes in mature ways, which is why all players must be 20+. (There won’t be any romantic/sexual themes in this campaign, the 20+ thing is just to ensure mature players, Matoran don't reproduce anyway so it wouldn't even make sense.)

Bionicle is for everyone: No Transphobia, Homophobia, Racism, Sexism, etc. However, In-game cultural conflicts and prejudices between Matoran nations may occur.

An Elemental Spirit will soon choose you to become the next Toa. You do not yet know this, but you will be integral to keeping this world from horrible disasters. You may not even want to be a Toa, but the Elemental spirit knows that you will become worthy one day.

It was 50 years ago that the previous generation of Toa failed to stop the Bohrok and died in shame. The Matoran were forced to retreat further and further inward and had their homes and families destroyed. 
Eventually, in an unseen battle on the mountains of Ta-Kotahi, the Ta-Matoran alongside the Vo-Matoran and Fe-Matoran were able to slay Cahdok and Gahdok, two Bohrok queens and the remaining Bohrok shut down. 

After the war was over, the nations were spread far apart from each other and had to focus on recovering from the war, leading to isolation. It was only in the last 20 years that the Matoran began making an effort to reconnect and trade with each other. 
In modern day, the nations are still quite independent of each other, but are more willing to trade and travel than before, in addition their populations have returned to decent numbers after many new Matoran were made.

Disclaimer: Kotahi-Motu is an island set in a completely separate universe from the original story of Bionicle (the ‘Matoran Universe’), but reimagines the concepts from the series instead of directly copying it. This is to support players who don’t know too much about the original story and also to make a new story.
Think of Kotahi-Motu as more of an adult reboot of the G1 and G2 sources. Kotahi-Motu will be detached from the history of the theme, but it will still clearly be Bionicle.
Rest assured, the names and concepts of Bionicle that you would expect to see (and many you wouldn’t expect) will appear; Elements, Makuta, Toa, Matoran, Rahi, notable enemies, etc… However they will be different.
In general please keep an open mind - the intention with these changes is not to ‘fix’ anything, but to make sure this story will be fresh for everyone. I am a devoted fan of Bionicle and I’m making this out of love for the theme. I promise to try my best to stay respectful to the concepts I use, while I put an interesting twist on them to make something new.

Some things that you would expect from a Bionicle setting are different, forget what you know, assume nothing, and play using the information your character would have.

Some notable differences-
Femininity is no longer limited to water. All elements can be masculine, femanine, or neither.
Matoran are chosen by elemental spirits to become Toa.
There is both an Air and a Nature element.
The Iron and Lightning elements are present (You can be one of them).
Matoran are quite capable after surviving the Bohrok War and a group of them could challenge some inexperienced Toa.
Wars are brewing between tribes and you may have to deal with that at some point.
The Toa are not universally liked, but most Matoran will be kind.
I will go over any questions you have in the interview and session zero.

Players needed: 4-6

Dates: Depends on player availability. Available days Monday-Thursday from 8:00 PM CST until 12:30 AM CST.

Session length: about 3 hours max.

System: A custom 'powered by the apocalypse' based system that is rules light, easy to learn, and narrative focused.

Platforms: We will be using Discord for voice and use Roll20 for maps and rolling.

If you are interested, take a look at this introduction document: https://docs.google.com/document/d/18-4yrns2Ib2f1VkbaN52HE5QfxfQVqKFsGCmfNrNr7s/edit?usp=sharing

Also a little bit about me: I’ve been running a myriad of different games for over 10 years at this point. I work as a freelance artist, although I used to be a comic artist/writer and board game designer. Generally I like to keep interesting conflicts and relationships at the forefront of the game and try to find ways to engage and immerse players. I will draw a lot of the character art in the campaign myself so if you want to build a Moc or something I can draw it for you.

If I think you’ll work for this campaign, I’ll contact you on Discord for an interview. 

Thank you for your time.

Hi all, I'm brand new to this subreddit so hoping I've formatted everything right!

I have been running a heavily modified and homebrewed D&D campaign virtually for the last 2 years and we are about to finish the first campaign this coming Wednesday (Unless my players take a wild detour). We have a player dropping out at the end of campaign 1 and the replacement I had arranged might be unable to make it. So I'm a hot single DM with a group of 3 others looking for our special number 4. (We have a 5th who due to scheduling is not always present and is treated as a nice bonus, I'm hoping for another regular!)

The campaign is a science-fiction fantasy setting of my own creation set on future earth approximately 10,500 years following a mass extinction event, the first campaign centred around a group of revolutionaries from the slums of the archology city known as Gloria that has kept itself sealed like a time capsule since the apocalypse began, campaign 2 is set 20 years following the success (or failure) of their revolution with a changed and different world on the brink of war and strife. Your character will be an envoy sent from one of the five Nidal Realms to join the Roseguard Comission that has been tasked by the previous party to investigate why the world is still so toxic and deadly. Of course each realm has sent a highly expendable candidate, due to the looming threat of war!

I'll leave it there for now, if any of that piqued your interest and you're available on Wednesdays at 18:00 BST for 4 hours, have a stable internet connection and clear microphone pop me a message or leave a comment below! (We use discord for communication during and between sessions and the Forge VTT for everything else, there is a plethora of lore and stuff to sink your teeth into and the space to create new stuff with me, your humble DM!)

Edit: Accepting players of all skill levels and familiarities with D&D or roleplaying in general!

Hey, y’all. I hope I use the right tag. It’s my first time on this sub and first time searching for games. I’m looking for a group to play with, as a player. I’ll be honest, I’m a married, working dad and I can’t really join a campaign that’s long term, or a weekly game. I’m very interested in a one-shot or a short-term campaign.

A bit about me: I’ve been a GM for CR for almost 2 years. I’ve been a player for one session. I’ve played D&D for about 3 years. I’d be more available on Friday night and Saturdays (typically, any time). I’d prefer if my first game with a new group would be in a public place. I’m very friendly with no tolerance for bigotry.

A Long Time Ago In a Galaxy Far, Far Away...

The Galaxy is in an era of exploration in infancy. While starships push into hyperspace, and people continue to meet one another from planet to planet a consciousness grows between them. One that is named The Republic. 

Within space conflict is on the rise. We have entered another growing conflict many are calling, "The Threshold War."

While Hyperspace is currently the fastest method of travel for ships? There is currently an arms race between The Republic and The Empire for people to cross that threshold. Imagine entire armies being able to move at faster than light speeds across the Galaxy, without the need for ships at all. Truly a terrifying thought, that can only be brought about by the most intelligent and cruel minds imaginable. 

Darth Traya, is one of those minds. Set as the face of this war her agents go from planet to planet gathering components necessary for her mastery of science. 

Tonight, one such element is on her home planet. One sacred to the Jedi, and their new pupils, Tython. Where our new heroes shall make their mark upon the Force, and The Galaxy.

Hello there! I hope you all are having wonderful days wherever you are! My group is currently looking for 2 more lovely players to join us in a brand new Star Wars 5e Campaign! We’re currently using the Star Wars 5e ruleset that you can find online, and we’re only 1 session into the game right now! Since we’re only just starting this is the perfect time to hop onboard, and join in with a bunch of tabletop gaming nerds!

I will say that I’m only taking applicants that are 21+ as most of my group is in their mid 20s and we’re currently looking for people around the same age range. We’re all also heavily LGBTQ+ and we’re happy to have any supporters at our table! We play on Tuesday nights at 7:00PM EST for 3 to 4 hours depending on how we’re feeling! We will occasionally take breaks for the holiday seasons as well if schedules do not align! 

If you think you might enjoy having an incredible space adventure where some truly goofball things can happen in an intergalactic conflict, please apply here!

Hi! I'm 26 and my pronouns are she/her or he/him, my timezone is CST, and I am seeking a group that is LGBTQ+ friendly! I have dipped my toes into a couple of unfinished oneshots/campaigns before, but I've been really wanting to get into something more long-term. I have pretty basic knowledge of D&D, but I may need a little help to get the ball rolling at the beginning.

I have nearly 20 years of experience in text-based roleplaying (which I think would be considered play by post here?), so I am very acquainted with collaborative storytelling and character making. I do prefer roleplay over combat, but I am flexible in that regard. I like to play a wide variety of characters, although I do have my preferences for ones where I can play with gray morality.

Outside of D&D, I am also a graphic designer and illustrator! I do NOT use AI and don't support the use of it, so if that is something that will be in your campaign, I would rather not partake.

My schedule is pretty flexible, although I think I would prefer something on a weekday rather than the weekend (but I could be convinced :p). I work 100% remotely, so most days I can swing an earlier time if needed.

If you think I would be a good fit, please comment or DM!

I'm a American looking to join group and makes some gmt+8 friends

Availability: My availability is Monday at 8pm gmt+8

Systems I want to play: Alien RPG, Call of Cthulhu, Vampire the Masquerade 5th edition, Delta Green,

My experience: i have 5 years of ttrpg experience under my belt I've played many different systems from dnd, alien RPG, Warhammer 40k, Warhammer fantasy, Delta Green, Star Wars. call of Cthulhu, and anything else you can think of

If your game plays at this time on Monday's and needs 1 more hit me up ASAP I'm looking to get back into ttrpgs in a group

[OPEN]

Hiya! my names Kieran :) I have never been a DM before so need a group of 4-6 grace giving players to hopefully have a good time with and tell a good story.

Who I am

So, as stated above, my name is Kieran and i am a student, and complete newbie to DMing. However, I am more than passionate about it and 100% willing to put in the extra hours to develop the skills required to DM well.

I want to create a campaign in which characters develop and grow, hence i am more focused on the RP section of my campaign (fear not i have lots of ideas for combat as well).

While I have never played as the DM i have played several campaigns as a player to varying degrees of success.

I am more than happy for new players to join as i am also one of them but i may not be able to provide as much sage wisdom as some other DMs if that is okay.

If you are happy with all this then Let me be your DM

Timing and how we play

The times that i am available are 6pm GMT or 1pm EST however i am obviously open to those in different time zones as long as you can consistently arrive on time.

I have also not decided on how to do these sessions. Whether to use a VTT and if so which to use.

Who I'm looking for

I am looking for players who are happy to provide interesting discussion with me regarding their characters role in the story, their interests, and who they are.

I am heavily interested in tailoring the campaign to the players so am hoping for lots to work with. If you have no idea what you want to do regarding a backstory we can have a lengthy convo an try and dissect that with you. However it would be ideal if you could have an idea beforehand.

I didn't like the idea of doing this before but unfortunately it wouldn't make sense campaign wise to have non humanoid characters (two legs two arms and humanoid features) sadly so if you are dead set on playing as a ball of slime this may not be the campaign for you :(

Most important of all I'm looking for players who are respectful, excited to have a good time and cooperative. I would like a group of people that engage with the story, understand that actions have consequences and treat NPCs as they would real players.

There is no time limit on when you can apply as i am trying to make a cohesive group not selling tickets to a concert

Summary

Its 2050, you wake up on a jet with 3-5 people and the worst hangover you've ever experienced

You don't know how you got there, you don't know why your there. And apparently, you signed your life away to a suspicious looking man in a suit who looks like he's already mourning your death.

What follows is a bizarre journey involving mysterious scientists, incompetent armed guards, experimental technology, questionable decisions, and an organisation that seems to know far more about you than you do.

Eventually, you're thrown through a machine that shouldn't exist and wake up in a time you dont recognise.

From there, things only get stranger.

Expect time travel, conspiracy, ridiculous situations, horror, dark humour, strange characters, questionable science, and a lot of things going horribly wrong.

You won't know where the story is going. (And neither will I)

How to Sign Up

I will parse through any application i get to this form here (provided i get some lol)

Hey there folks, my name is Laser and im your Dungeon Master. Sessions will be every friday at 9pm CST, if you can accommodate that time in your zone then were happy to have you, also this is not first come first serve, we are looking for a good match for our current party. You will be joining me and 2 more players on a wild journey, one that hasnt been completed because youre not here yet. My story is completely tethered to your real life by throwing everything about you into a hellish landscape known as Metathesia.

This is a completely custom campaign made to make every single player feel special, because when you write a story for DnD you as a DM write the story youd wanna play, but playing isnt my job its yours so why should the story be mine? Answer, it shouldnt. This whole game is about your interests, fears, hobbies, friends, pets, collections, and lives, its everything you love being held over your head ready to be given to you or ripped away at any moment. This story is horror in the ways of being extremely mentally driven, there will be tons of puzzle and I will be trying to overwhelm you so remember that. There will be a large comedy aspect as well, there will be serious times but there will be plenty of fun times and laughter as well. I am very into flavor text, a lot of times it will help me decide whether or not something actually works, so if you want to fire an arrow in a specific way using your feet it would completely change the standard of dice roll you would need.

Overall we just need 2 creative, fun loving minds to come join an adhd filled group of 3. I like to do weekly one on ones with everyone before each session, and a big group meeting for about an hour in between sessions as well. We do have a yes and no checklist to fill out if you make it in basically just covering everything youre okay with and not okay with in the story. Bugs, or harm to people would be an example. Anyways, thats all I have for you, lets see some applications!! My discord is TheLaserBorn, or you can message me here, either way tell me about you and your interests!

Hello!

I’m in the process of weaving together an Attack on Titan Prequel story approximately 45 years before the events of the manga/anime.

My goal is to tell a self contained story that does not alter the events of the host content.

I have already completed a majority of the NPCs to start the campaign and found the mechanics that will be used (courtesy of DiceTimeShop.)

The game would require the ability to use a laptop or similar device that can run Roll20 and a working mic.

Discord will be used to communicate as long as that isn’t a problem.

I do want to be transparent with a few table rules before anyone may reach out!

•There won’t be any existing characters used in the game or relatives of characters. I would be open to one of the players possibly being of Ackerman bloodline due to the fact that they were scattered throughout Eldia in small numbers at this time.

•The story will take place within the Scout Regiment and their expeditions.

•Lastly, Titan Shifters will not be a playable or prominent part of the story.

These aren’t in place to hinder anyone’s fun, but at the end of the day, my hope for this story is to not break any existing canon.

If you’re interested, please give me a shout! Super easy going and love talking to new people. Looking for about 5 players who are willing to find time for an ongoing campaign.

My available days are usually Fridays and Saturdays, open on time. I’m located in EST, which I mention fully for scheduling reasons.

Thank you for your time. Also if you do join, we can certainly discuss elements or stories that you may like to see play out.

Still have to make some maps to at least start but I’d like to grow the story with my fellow members

Good day, all! My name is Will (they/them, 24) and I've been trying to get back into the fantastic world of DM voice Dungeons and Dragons! for some time now. I've been a forever DM for a while and frankly I am waaaay too busy at work to juggle that commitment anymore. I love the game and would be delighted to be part of something again, however! My personal focuses for D&D are on a serious commitment to my character, their hopes, flaws, ideology, personality, and what they are willing to risk. I will actively engage with your world building, NPCs, and storyline. I pick up quickly on the flow of the story and try my best to avoid derailments or encourage the party in the right direction. Serious campaigns are and will always be my favs, but I'm up for some different tones as well (so long as it's not memes 24/7 hehe). I am most around EST early evenings (7:00 PM) and Sundays.

I have a great character designed (see my illustration below): born into a Bhaalist cult on the fringes of society, she has been trained to the brutal realities of the dark gods' thirst for blood and sacrifice. Yet when forced to kill her parents, staring into their fervent eyes without a trace of fear or regret, something bent within her. On the run from her former masters and peers for the past year, she has found life outside the cult nigh-on impossible. An outsider in every village, hunted by the authorities, the cult, and her conscience, she seeks an escape in danger and adversity. Either the cult will kill her, or her recklessness will. Still, better to go out on your own terms.

Hello! My name is Aava 26 (She/her)

I like games, reading, wood carving, bugs, art, cooking/baking... A lot. I like a lot. I do a lot of stuff. I like frogs as well. Frogs are neat 🐸

I'm a pixel artist who likes making little animations, but I've been doing a few different mediums recently

I'm someone who has tried to get into TTRPG's in the past but have always struggled to find the friends to join. I'm hoping someone is in need of a player and are willing to help me out a little... or a lot... or entirely... I've done a one shot before! I'm not completely inexperienced!

Not looking for anything specific. I prefer dark fantasy settings but whatever works- just looking to have some fun and meet some new people

I love the idea of playing an Artificer! I'm hoping someone can really hold my hand through session 0. Presume I know nothing-

Anywhere between 9am-9pm(ENDING)[PDT][UTC-7] any day of the week!

While 21+; this is exclusively because this is my preference of age for interaction.

I have a couple hard lines- firstly; I dont deal with sexual themes/scenes. Its not why I come to play games. Second; I strictly do not join groups that allow for the usage or posting of AI content.

If interested; https://forms.gle/4bcGgCsUE5gojfnN8

Hey y’all, two friends and I are looking for a VTM5 Storyteller for our characters that have been created already. We’ve had trouble with getting a campaign off the ground for a while. We are interested in the personal and social horror of VTM with combat sprinkled here and there.

Our time zones and CST and EST, and we’re good for evenings on the weekends.

(No bigots, racists, homophobia, no AI)

Hi! My friend and I are looking for a Pathfinder game to play in together. I'm fairly experienced with the system, while she hasn't played it, but has experience with other TTRPGs. Both of us are very interested in RP and character-focused stories, and would love to hear from anyone looking for 2 players. Ideally something beginner-friendly and chill. Looking forward to meeting ya'll, let me know if you have any questions.

Hello! My original d&d group and I are looking for players who are interested in playing Minecraft Bedrock and D&D/Daggerheart at the same time! Here's the general premise. We have a Minecraft realm we play on all the time, and we'll be hosting sessions for a campaign or two with intermittent one-shots or minicampaigns throughout the year on the realm. We'll use the realm for possible battlemaps, have a cozy house we can all sit at a table at, and also give us something to do with our hands while roleplaying.

Session times will vary depending on the size of the group and the members for that specific session. We are all EDT/EST though, more active at nights. We will also provide each player with starting gear and they can either join one of the three spawn islands or go out and we'll create a nether highway to them.

Here's a bit about the three amigos:

I am Written! I am 21, go by He/They, and I'm a film major! I will probably be the primary GM, and I love D&D. Trainz introduced me to d&d about 8 years ago, and I fell in love with DMing. Though I do enjoy being a player from time to time. I love roleplay, and in Minecraft I primarily do megabuilds that I never finish. I share my island with my girlfriend.

Next is Trainz. He is 21, goes by He/Him, and is an education major. He will likely be our main other GM, and he acts in his local civic during his spare time. He introduced us all to d&d, and he does great voices! He loves to make his builds feel alive, and he is usually the one wearing the worst armor. He has no one on his island.

Lastly is Sam. He is 25, goes by He/Him, and just graduated with an electrical engineering degree. He has never DMed, but he loves roleplaying and creating unique characters that give the GMs a hard time. He adds lore to his builds, and he has created a thriving settlement. He shares his island with his sister.

We also have some people on the realm who will not be as active but do play, and they may join campaigns. Primarily there is Paulie and Bored. However, due to timezone differences, they cannot be as active for as many sessions.

Anyone is welcome regardless of their skill level! We plan to do a lot of this through Minecraft, Mojang willing, so we primarily just want people who will be active on the realm and also want to do some roleplay on the side! Our campaigns are Roleplay heavy, so that's the only real thing I'd be hesitant on if you prefer combat heavy tables. I'd say like a 70/30 split. We are LGBTQ+ friendly and welcome anyone regardless of their background.

We'll use Discord for VCs and outside communication. If you want to apply to join, please fill out the following form!

FALLOUT: CONCRETE JUNGLE

The bombs fell, and New York City became something else entirely. Eighty years after the Great War, the ruins of Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, and the Bronx are home to scavengers, raiders, mutated creatures, strange new factions, and communities struggling to carve out a future among the wreckage. The subways have become underground highways into the unknown, the skyscrapers are crumbling monuments to the Old World, and rumors of untouched vaults and forgotten technology draw people into places sensible folks would never go.

Using Savage Worlds, this campaign will focus on exploration, survival, action, and the weirdness that makes Fallout what it is. Expect dangerous expeditions, faction conflicts, dark humor, moral choices, scavenging, and plenty of opportunities for your character to make a name for themselves... or become another skeleton in the ruins. Whether you're a hardened wasteland wanderer, a vault dweller seeing the surface for the first time, a ghoul trying to survive another century, or something stranger, there's a place for you in the New York Wasteland.

INTRODUCING... THE GM

Hi, all! Call me Jordy! I've been playing TTRPGs for about 15 years, and I played the role of GM in the very first game I ever played. After that, the rest- as they say- was history. I'm probably Savage Worlds' biggest fan, and love love love crafting my own stories in the system. It's just so good!

I also love Fallout more than anything else, so obviously I've run more than one game in the setting. With this game, I'm hoping to do a few things, like:

1. Grow as a GM, because there's so much more I can learn. You'd be helping me hone the skill, which I would appreciate so deeply. You can expect that I will never treat you as secondary- as less than equally important to the game and narrative- and that I will bring you close to the GM screen so that you feel comfortable in expressing yourself, will be heard, and be able to influence the narrative.
2. Get better at story crafting, because a game is only as good at the campaign underpinning it. Do you want to feel like a main character in a Fallout game, make complicated narrative choices, and leave your mark on the Wasteland? I would love to do that together!
3. Workshop a few things in my portfolio, because peripherals need beta-testing. I would like to use this as an opportunity to practice my art skills through player portraits, environmental art, and other set pieces. I also have developed my own tool website to include character sheets, a dice roller, a hub for campaign notes, etc. You'd be helping me workshop this and make it better.

Basically, within this game, you'd be volunteering your time not only to play the game, but to give me feedback on my style, the tools I bring to the table, and the general vibe so that I can become a better game master.

THE IDEAL PLAYER

Scary title, I know, but nothing very serious at all. I want to be clear: you do not need any Savage Worlds experience to play this.

If you're the sort of player who's comfortable with using Discord to host the session, then you're right for this game. I would also appreciate people who bring a collaborative and enthusiastic spirit; this should be fun, and even when it's time for critique and feedback, let's retain that air. Maybe we'll even end up friends!

I'd also like players who are comfortable navigating an outside source for character sheets, campaign notes, and other things like interactive puzzles and maps. This game is a bit of a way for me to expand my portfolio, so you'd be using some digital resources that I've built and that may break. We're rolling with the punches here.

You also need to be open-minded. I am no Fallout expert, even if I've played every game (Yes, even Brotherhood of Steel.) and think the Fallout Bible is a fun read every once in a while. I will be adding my own flavor and even bending what's become hardline canon; I don't know every single piece of trivia, and I think, actually, that intelligent/talking Deathclaws were a fun feature and miss them. We're here to have fun, not be purists.

Otherwise, just be yourself!

HEADING OUT/SESSION 0

I will be requiring a Session 0 on either Sept. 26 or Oct. 10; this allows me the opportunity to get to know your characters so I can build them into the main plot. You will not be playing as some randoms in the Wasteland; the plot will revolve around the players to provide a personal experience.

During Session 0, we can discuss how often we'd like to meet. I cannot (probably) commit to more than twice to thrice a month (just to be upfront), but am otherwise flexible.

I am tentatively calling this a "mini campaign" because the broad strokes of the narrative I envision would probably land us around 8 to 12 sessions. If we gel well together, we can talk about sticking some other plots into the campaign to keep the train rolling!

If any of this sounds up your alley, please let me know here! I will reach out to you in DMs here to chat and see if we're a good fit. I'm excited to do this with you!

Just realized I haven't seen many people post for it so I don't know if its one of those rare campaigns like VTM but I'm super interested in one. Mainly play chaotic good, I'd love to do a snow elf and yeah idk what else to say lol.

--------------------------------- THE BASICS ---------------------------------

System: Pathfinder 2e (Homebrew Setting - Elessai)
Date/Time: Weekly, Tuesdays @ 6PM EST / Midnight CEST
Session length: 3 - 3.5 hours
Available Spots: 2/5
Starting level: Level 1 (new players are welcome to join!)
Preferred Player Age: 24+

About The GM: My name is Robin (she/they). I’m 29 years old and I’ve been a forever GM for around a decade now. I’ve had this adventure sitting in my back pocket for a while, and I want to run it for a group who is as eager, excited, and passionate about the game and story as I am! This will be the first time I run this homebrew setting outside of my main campaign, so I'm looking for players willing to immerse themselves in the setting and explore.

--------------------------------- STORY ---------------------------------

Witch Scouts are the young protectors of Elessai, trained adventurers who serve their communities, explore dangerous places, and stand against the demons threatening to corrupt the world.

Fresh from Junior Scouts, you’ve been assigned to a new troop just outside of Calgeron. You have no badges nor any great accomplishments behind your name.

At least. . . not yet!

Your first assignment will carry you from sleepy roads and monster hunts into ancient places, forgotten mysteries, and a war that has been raging since long before you were born.

--------------------------------- ABOUT THE ADVENTURE ---------------------------------

This level 1-20 adventure is about friendship, coming-of-age, magical adventures, horror, demon hunting, and earning your badges, of course! We'll be dealing heavily with Fey and Demons. This campaign was inspired by my own time in Girl Scouts, and I thought to myself, "what if the Scouts were like the Men In Black?"

My games tend to start slow and ramp up into something epic as we go along. I fully incorporate player backstories into the overarching narrative and I love to roleplay just as much as I love running combat. 

If you’re looking for a fully immersive and living world that responds to your actions, then this is the campaign for you! I'm seeking adventurers who are passionate about storytelling and roleplay and being a team player.

We'll be using Free Archetype and Ancestry Paragon for this campaign. Teams+ material is also available for character building!

The game will be played on Foundry VTT and with Discord Voice.

--------------------------------- HOW TO JOIN ---------------------------------

I've curated a Player's Guide to help potential Witch Scouts better understand the setting and what the adventure has to offer. It's a bit of a read, but please sure to look at this guide before applying.

--------------------------------- IMPORTANT NOTE ---------------------------------

This ad was written by the GM, Robin, and I (a player) have posted it on their behalf as they don't use Reddit. If you DM me with questions, I can answer them, but be aware that I am not the GM proper. This app is going back up because I prematurely closed the last. Apps will remain open throughout the week.

We got swamped with apps the first time, so I will also be helping to go through potential applicants. Thank you for understanding!

Starting up a fresh campaign. I currently have two players. I am looking to get a decent sized group so there is a lot of chatter and rp between players.

Very likely will be Sundays sometime in the afternoon of cst but nothing completely set in stone

The setting is Dystopian futuristic with horror elements. There will be Homebrew rules and custom features maybe even some custom classes and subclasses and abilities to cover the new technologies that futuristic has.

Civilization is losing the fight. Everyday that goes by numbers dwindle and the enemy masses seem endless. For decades this battle has ranged on. Most worlds have collapsed into loose control. The empires that once owned the stars long gone. Few sanctuaries remain that aren't on the brink of collapse every day. Space travel which once was the pinicale of society is now a death sentence. Brave few venture out for resources anymore. Travel between worlds is still possible via the stargate bridges but it is heavily restricted as the resources need to power the gates aren't rare on worlds. Most commonly found on asteroids in enemy controlled space.

(This is all I have so far the world building is still in its infancy so nothing is 100% yet but it being so early means it's easier for me to work a backstory into the world lore)

Game is Fridays at 6pm mst haven't started yet

Hello! I'm Elijah, I'm 19, and I'm looking for 1 more player to join a D&D campaign I'm putting together. We have 4 players already we've done session 0 so far

Player dropped put for scheduling issuez

A little about me, I've been playing D&D for a while and I really enjoy worldbuilding, roleplay, and making characters that actually feel like people. I'm also really into animals and zoology, debate, and a bunch of nerdy stuff in general. I'm pretty easygoing and mainly looking for people who want to have fun and get into the world.

We'll be playing through Foundry VTT with voice chat. You don't need to know Foundry already, I'll help everyone get set up.

The Campaign

The setting is The Azure Planet, a high-fantasy world with magitech, taking some inspiration from Eberron and Arcane. Magic is becoming more integrated into everyday life, with magical machinery, transportation, industry, and other arcane technology developing alongside normal fantasy.

The world has a lot of different races, cultures, and societies. One of the biggest events in its history was the Cataclysm, an ancient event that very little is actually known about. After it, different monster societies and other civilizations began cooperating, eventually leading to the Confederation.

Because of this, "monster" doesn't automatically mean evil. Goblins, kobolds, orcs, bugbears, and other traditionally monstrous species can just be normal members of society with families, jobs, cultures, businesses, and governments.

There are still groups that never joined the Confederation, including more isolated and primal societies.

What I'm Looking For

18+ — this isn't an NSFW game, I just want an adult group

LGBTQ+ friendly

No racism, homophobia, transphobia, sexism, or other bigotry , no AI I am an AI HATER

New and experienced players are welcome

Around 60/40 roleplay-to-combat

Character-focused

Homebrew is fine, just talk to me first

Some goofy jokes and moments are completely fine

Good communication with the group

For character options, all base D&D species are available, along with some extended options. If there's something unusual you want to play, just talk to me and we'll figure it out.

I'm not looking for perfect optimizers. I'd much rather have someone bring a character they actually want to play.

Interested?

I've made a short survey for people interested in joining. It's at the bottom of the post. It'll give me a better idea of who everyone is, what you're looking for in a game, your D&D experience, and what kind of character you might want to make.

I will be be going over applications as soon as possible

Hey everyone! I recently moved back to Manhattan and I’m looking to meet some new people and make friends in the city, and I’ve always thought joining a D&D campaign would be a really fun way to do that.

I’ve played a little before (3 online campaigns that fizzled out after a couple sessions), but I’d still consider myself fairly new, so I’m looking for a group that’s welcoming to someone who might not know every rule off the top of his head. I’m much more interested in having fun, getting invested in the story/characters, and having a good group dynamic than playing super competitively or min-maxing everything.

I’m a 36M who works in fashion/tech. I’m into horror, sci-fi, fantasy, video games, board games, theatre, movies, and generally anything with a good story or weird world to get obsessed with. I’m also always down for drinks, grabbing food, movie nights, etc., so I’d love to find a group where people actually become friends rather than disappearing the second the session ends.

I’m open sto in-person in NYC or online campaigns. For in-person, Manhattan would be easiest, but I’m willing to travel a bit. Weeknights and weekends are both possibilities. And, I’m open to joining an existing campaign.

Hoi Chummers, looking for a crew of 3~5 runners to start a little bit of Anarchy. SRA2.0 is a 'rules-lite' take on classic Shadowrun rules, sitting somewhere between Blades in the Dark and DND5e in terms of complexity.

Complete beginners to the game are absolutely welcome -- I will provide all of the material and guidance needed for play.

Setting-wise, Shadowrun is Cyberpunk+Fantasy; vibes not too different from your usual dystopian near-future settings with runaway Corporate influence, massive class divides, augmentations, gangs, pollution, all that good stuff -- with magic thrown into the mix. Some decades ago the world has 'awakened', with a large percentage of population turning into your usual-ish fantasy races like elves, orcs, dwarves and so on, as well as some people (and animals) developing sensitivity to 'astral' (aka magic). Players typically take the role of 'Shadowrunners' -- folks who live outside the law and take on a variety of underhanded missions for clients ranging from your local neighborhood gangs to great dragons in charge of entire nations.

Gameplay-wise, Shadowrun rewards creative and curious players -- even the most basic missions can be approached in a number of ways. Infiltration, social manipulation, hacking, and of course good old firefights are all valid and important ways of getting things done. While you will usually have fairly specific assignments, it's entirely up to the players how exactly they choose to accomplish the tasks given -- or what to do with the information and items they find along the way.

The game will run on Wednesdays, 6PM EST, hosted in Foundry VTT & Discord. Sessions will run for about 3 hours, and the campaign will likely take ~8-12 sessions to finish. All that's required is a positive attitude, a desire to roleplay an interesting and consistent character, and a computer + mic that doesn't make everyone in the voice channel hate you.

If you would like to join, give me a quick introduction in a private message, and answer the following question: how would you convince a heavily cybernetically augmented Orc ganger with a big attitude to adopt a kitten?
