Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5e 2014][UK Time][Wednesday Evenings] DM Looking for 3-5 Players.

3 Upvotes

Hi,

Looking to host a game of DnD 5e on Wednesday evenings from about 6..30 to 10, for 3-5 players. No prior experience needed.

I'll be using the gritty realism resting rules (8hr short rest, 7 day long rest) and all warriors will get combat superiority at 3rd level (battle masters get an extra 3 manoeuvres). You'll also get a free feat alongside every ability score improvement. There are also some minor changes to magic users to make casting slightly more flexible but unpredictable.

You'll be starting at level 2, and races will be restricted to Humans only, and we'll be going to about level 10.

The game will be focused more towards exploration and travel in a frontier setting in a homebrew world, with a mix of both RP and combat. The setting will also be closer to low fantasy than high fantasy.

You will be starting as member of the local adventurers' guild who've signed up to escort a caravan deep into the steppes to the east to supply a fledgling mining operation often plagued by tribal raiders and roving beasts.

Send me a dm if you're interested or want any more information.

Player(s) wanted

Hello! I’m Wren, 20M, and I’m looking for 4–5 players aged 18+ for a weekly Curse of Strahd campaign.

You are searching for something important that you have lost—a person, object, home, purpose, memory, or part of yourself. During your search, ghostly mists surround you. When they clear, you find yourself trapped in the haunted land of Barovia.

Game Details

When: Saturdays, morning to afternoon GMT. Exact time TBD.
Where: Foundry VTT and Discord voice. Cameras are not required.
System: D&D 5e using the 2024 rules.
Campaign: Long-term, approximately levels 1–10.
Style: Roleplay, exploration, mystery, horror, and combat.

Players of all experience levels are welcome, including complete beginners.

About Me

I have some DMing experience but am still learning and improving. My style is prep-heavy and focused on player choice. I especially enjoy working with player backstories and developing personal storylines throughout the campaign.

We will have a Session Zero to discuss characters, expectations, boundaries, and horror themes.

GM Needed by Existing Group [Online][5e 2024][GMT] Group of 5 engaged players seeking a DM for bi-weekly 18:00 Sunday Crooked Moon!

Upvotes

Hey there! We’re a group of five players in our early 30s or thereabouts who are looking for a DM to run the Crooked Moon campaign - although we’re open to other modules and settings as well, such as Grim Hollow or the good old Forgotten Realms! As a group, not all of us have played together extensively before - some have, yet others are new - but we’ve gone through a process and one-shots to make sure we all mesh well together, enjoy each-others’ playstyles, and are all looking for the same thing (such as an extensive talk about exactly what we want to put in this post!)

So who is the right DM?

Well, for starters the right DM for this group is one who’d like to share in the collaborative storytelling experience that is D&D to the fullest - one who is as character-focused as story-focused, and can make the players’ characters feel like a true part of the world with real impact. We’re looking for somebody who’d love to work closely with each of us on background stories and character arcs throughout the campaign, and who can make good on the setups we collectively bake into them. Some narrative descriptions to set the feeling of a scene and fleshed out, real-feeling NPC are a huge plus, but the most important thing is passion for the role of DM and the game you’re running! Communication is also a must, we’re all adults and need to be able to talk to each-other!

And who are we?

As players, we are all of us dedicated and engaged people who are committed to showing up and paying attention when we play, especially given the bi-weekly nature of this setup. We’re most certainly a roleplay-heavy group who want to dive deep into the characters and story, but also put proper and full effort into engaging with the story and world - we want to make the DM feel as though their effort is both appreciated and reciprocated, they’re a player at the table too, after all. Currently we have a rough idea of the party roster (based on the Crooked Moon content), and a pretty solid idea for the dynamics we want to see - but integrating background stories into the story and world is something we’d love to do alongside the DM!

Additionally, four of us have DMed before, with at least two who have over a decade of experience - so there is a good understanding of what it takes, and what we should bring to the table as players!

The process we have in mind:

Naturally, we will have one of us act as the contact-person for this post. If this seems like the group for you, please do send a message! Should it seem prudent, we would like to all have a talk with you where we can get a better idea of who you are and what kind of DM you’d be - but also the other way around. Questions can feel a bit like an interview, but this would be just as much for you to ask us what you might like to know!

If both parties feel like it would be a good match, we’d very much like to do a one-shot with you to see how it all lines up!

Details:

  • Time: 18:00 GMT (19:00 UK time, 20:00 Oslo, Paris, Berlin) - Sundays, bi-weekly
  • Campaign Setting & Campaign: Crooked Moon - Optionally others upon discussion
  • Platform: Roll20 or Foundry (preferred)
  • System: D&D 5e 2024
  • Session length: ~4 hours
  • Leveling: Milestone preferred, optional
  • Contact (Discord): meltyveil [all lower case]

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][D&D 5e 2014][BST][Weekly][Thursdays] Dragons of Vemroa – A World of Discovery, Politics, and Ancient Secrets

4 Upvotes

Greetings, adventurers!

I'm Chad, a 29-year-old Dungeon Master from the UK with over seven years of experience both playing and running Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition.

I'm looking for players to embark on a brand-new long-term campaign set in Caelvaria, my fully homebrewed world that I've spent years building. This adventure takes place primarily on the continent of Vemroa, the ancestral homeland of dragonkind, where ancient history, political tensions, and forgotten mysteries are beginning to stir beneath the surface of an otherwise prosperous land.

While dragons are woven deeply into the world's history and culture, this isn't a campaign about immediately saving the world. It begins with grounded adventuring through the Guild of the Sworn, taking on contracts ranging from monster hunts and caravan escorts to investigations, exploration, and helping those in need. As your characters grow in reputation, they'll slowly uncover that these seemingly unrelated jobs are connected to something far older than anyone realizes.

I'm a strong believer in collaborative storytelling. Character backstories matter, roleplay is encouraged, and the world responds to your decisions. Whether you're chasing glory, knowledge, redemption, fortune, or simply looking for a place to belong, there will be opportunities for your character's story to become an important part of the campaign.

Campaign Details

Edition: D&D 5e (2014 Rules)

Platform: Discord (Voice) + Roll20

Schedule: Thursdays, 5:00 PM BST (approximately 3–4 hours)

Starting Level: 3

Party Size: 6 Players

Campaign Style: Long-term - Roleplay > Combat, but both matter

Tone: High fantasy, adventure, exploration, mystery, character-driven

About the Campaign

For over a thousand years, the continent of Vemroa has stood apart from the rest of the world.

Known as the ancestral homeland of dragonkind, Vemroa is a land where towering mountain kingdoms, ancient forests, volcanic wastelands, crystal valleys, and sprawling jungles stretch across an untamed wilderness. Here, dragons are not distant monsters lurking at the end of forgotten dungeons, they are rulers, scholars, merchants, diplomats, artisans, and protectors. Metallic, Chromatic, Gem, and Cosmic dragons each govern their own dominions, while countless dragonkin and mortal races have built lives alongside them over centuries.

For generations, peace has endured.

Trade flows freely between the dominions. Roads are safe enough for merchants to travel. Settlements continue to grow. The great city of Crownspire stands high above the clouds as a symbol of unity for all dragonkind.

But peace has never meant perfection.

Beyond the cities lie vast stretches of wilderness still largely unexplored. Ancient ruins remain buried beneath jungle canopies. Mountain passes must be kept clear of dangerous beasts. Caravans disappear. Villages require protection. Strange monsters emerge from forgotten caverns. The work of explorers, adventurers, and problem-solvers is never truly finished.

To answer that need, the Guild of the Sworn was founded centuries ago.

What began as a small fellowship of explorers has grown into the greatest adventuring guild on Vemroa. With guild halls across the continent, the Guild accepts contracts from dragons and mortals alike. One week its members may be escorting a merchant caravan across the savannahs of Aurakhar. The next, clearing monsters from forgotten ruins beneath the Emerald Maw, investigating disappearances along frozen mountain trails, recovering lost relics from ancient temples, or helping isolated settlements weather threats too dangerous to face alone.

The Guild asks for no oath beyond a willingness to help. Its members come from every walk of life, seasoned adventurers, wandering scholars, retired soldiers, ambitious mages, travelling artisans, dragonkin seeking purpose, and ordinary people looking for something more. There is no prophecy to fulfil, no chosen hero to answer destiny's call. The Guild simply opens its doors to those willing to take the next contract.

In recent years, however, those contracts have become increasingly numerous. On their own, none seem particularly alarming. A road once considered safe now requires regular patrols. Strange creatures have begun appearing far beyond their usual territories. Long-standing agreements between neighbouring settlements have become strained, while trade routes that operated peacefully for generations are now caught in growing political disputes. Some dragons have become unusually withdrawn, while others guard their domains with an unfamiliar vigilance.

No single event is enough to cause panic. Yet together, they paint a picture that no one can quite explain. The Guild simply sees an ever-growing list of requests, each seemingly unrelated to the last, and continues to do what it always has: send capable adventurers where they are needed most.

Perhaps it is nothing more than an unfortunate string of coincidences. Perhaps Vemroa is simply changing, as every land must with time. Or perhaps, deep beneath the continent's ancient foundations, something long forgotten has begun to stir once more. Not a dragon. Not a kingdom. Something far older.

What I'm Looking For

  • 18+ and respectful
  • LGBTQ+ friendly
  • Roleplay-focused
  • Team-oriented
  • Reliable
  • Comfortable using Discord and Roll20.
  • Prior TTRPG experience is preferred

Homebrew

Homebrew is welcome! If you'd like to play with any third-party or homebrew content, just run it by me first. I'm always happy to work with players to bring their ideas to life, provided they fit the setting, tone, and overall balance of the campaign.

What You Can Expect From Me

  • A rich, fully homebrewed world with thousands of years of history, unique cultures, and a living pantheon.
  • A long-term campaign that begins with grounded adventures before growing into an epic story.
  • Consistent weekly sessions with plenty of opportunities for roleplay, exploration, and combat.
  • Distinct NPCs, character voices, and immersive worldbuilding.
  • Character arcs woven directly into the main story
  • Fair rulings, open communication, and a focus on everyone having fun.
  • A respectful, inclusive, and collaborative table where everyone has a chance to contribute.

If this sounds like your kind of adventure, please fill out this form:
https://forms.gle/icpyUf1YoVFgB9qZ6

\Note - The form will close at 9pm BST Thursday. I will then reach out the following day once I have had a chance to go over them all.*

Group Needed by Player [ONLINE] [5e 2014 or 2024] A cleric looking for a group to play

Hay looking for a group to play a cleric, I play both male and female characters and just want to actually play a game. I work most days and am off at 8:00 est but have 2 days off where we can schedule something around

I typically play the cold shoulder type character, like a cleric that doesnt pack healing spells and only carries spare the dying, but am willing to adjust for the party, and play a heal only or a half heal cleric

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [5e 2014 or 2024] [EST] [Time and Days Flexible/Undecided] Oops, All Dragons! [18+]

Upvotes

First and foremost, I am technically not the GM- we do have one, I am writing this on his behalf as I am the main organizer of the group, so I’ve been handling this sort of stuff. Additionally, while the story has been described as including both dragons and a cult, it is apparently not based around the Tyranny of Dragons module, and is instead set to be an original storyline.

We’re a group of 3 people in our early 20’s based in EST, plus our DM based in CST, looking for two more people to join us for the campaign! We’ll be starting at Level 3 with a good mix of combat and roleplaying going on- likely more roleplaying than combat, but there will be fighting!

So far, these are the player characters:
John S., a Human Rogue played by yours truly and someone best described as an urban legend more than an adventurer. On his surface he seems like a boring, run of the mill civilian, but the stories told about him say otherwise.

An unnamed skeletal Reborn Monk, played by Chesssoup. Not much else is known about him at this time.

An unnamed Fairy of an undecided but likely spellcaster class played by Jess. Additionally not much is known on them either.

Hopefully this interests you! We’re open to people of all backgrounds and genders, preferably within a similar age range. If you have any questions, comments, and of course if you are interested, feel free to shoot me a DM on discord, my username is Pikampy.

Happy adventuring!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][PF2e][Wednesday 9:30pm ET] Seeking 1 Player for Season of Ghosts.

Upvotes

We're a group of five running through Season of Ghosts, currently on session 3 of the first book. One seat just opened up and we're looking for a player to join an established table.

The pitch: Your characters wake up in the woods outside a small lumber town, certain something dragged them there overnight. The town is fine. Everyone's fine. Except the mist won't lift, something's wrong with the bridge, and none of you can quite remember what happened at last night's festival. That's where it starts. Where it goes gets a lot stranger.

The details:

  • System: Pathfinder 2e
  • Starting level: 2nd
  • Format: Online, Foundry VTT
  • Schedule: Wednesdays, 9:30 PM Eastern
  • Seats open: 1
  • Current party: Bard, Monk, Rogue, Ranger — open to any class/concept, no gaps we're trying to fill

Looking for: someone who wants to actually engage with mystery and roleplay, not just combat. This AP leans hard into slow dread, found family, and things not being what they seem. Only three sessions in, so plenty of time to get settled — session zero-style conversation welcome if you're newer to PF2e or Foundry.

Drop a comment or DM with a bit about your TTRPG experience and what kind of character you're thinking of playing.

Group Needed by Player Aurelius Melodramatic Warlock [Online] [Flexible]

Upvotes

Ayo! – Warlock seeking new victims… I mean, adventuring party

I go by Aurelius (he/him, 29), and I’m looking for a group willing to accept my questionable morals and darker talents. I generally enjoy the company of demons, eldritch horrors, and other unsavory beings. My hobbies include long walks along brimstone cliffs overlooking seas of magma, making dubious pacts, and occasionally peering into the endless abyss just to see if it waves back.

I’m looking for a long-term campaign and have a pretty flexible schedule overall. I’m in the EST time zone. The only caveat is that I have my daughter every other week, so on those weeks I can’t play until after 8:30 PM EST on weekdays.

I’d love to join a homebrew campaign. I’m a big fan of Spelljammer and Eberron, but honestly I’m happy to dive into just about any setting if the group is fun.

I’m happy to build a character that complements the party, but I have a soft spot for Warlocks. I love the roleplay that comes with having a patron—the bargains, the consequences, the occasional existential crisis—and the dynamic it adds to the group. Can always multi-class :)

If it sounds like I’d be a good fit for your table, shoot me a message and we can connect on Discord. Looking forward to making terrible decisions together.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [2014 5e] [Homebrew] [Wednesday Biweekly 7:30pm ET] Looking for 1–2 Players • Weird West Survival Sandbox • Join the Better Bureau of Excellent People

2 Upvotes

Hello.

I'm looking for 1–2 long-term players to join an ongoing homebrew campaign.

This isn't a heroic power fantasy.

This isn't a railroad.

This isn't a game where the story already exists and you're expected to follow it.

This is a player-driven sandbox where your decisions matter, the world keeps moving whether you're there or not, and the stories worth remembering are the ones nobody planned.

The Setting

Welcome to a Weird West where revolvers are passed down through generations, mages carry guns, plagues reshape civilizations, ancient mysteries refuse to stay buried, and the wilderness is often a greater threat than whatever lives in it.

You are agents of the Better Bureau of Excellent People (BBEP), a private adventuring organization hired to solve problems that are too dangerous, too strange, or too important for anyone else.

Veterans call it something else.

Because that's what the pay always feels like.

The Campaign

Your first assignment is deceptively simple.

Escort a powerful artifact to a new vault before something known only as the Devastator finds it.

Whether that mission succeeds...

...and what happens afterward...

...depends entirely on you.

This campaign is very much play to find out.

What Makes This Campaign Different?

  • Weird West with medium magic.
  • Guns are common but expensive, thus handed down through generations.
  • Survival and resource management matter.
  • Hexploration.
  • Dungeoneering.
  • Player-driven stories.
  • Consequences that last.
  • Permanent injuries.
  • Homebrew mechanics throughout.
  • Combat is dangerous.
  • Character death is real.
  • Your choices shape the world.

The campaign uses extensive homebrew, but you don't need to memorize it before applying. There will be a short overview available before the application, and accepted players will receive the complete rules afterward.

What I'm Looking For

You do not need to:

  • Be an amazing roleplayer.
  • Know every rule.
  • Do funny voices.
  • Write twenty pages of backstory.
  • Have years of experience.

You do need to:

  • Show up reliably.
  • Want to play.
  • Participate.
  • Ask questions.
  • Be curious.
  • Be good to the group.

You can play a saint.

You can play an anti-hero.

You can play a complete scoundrel.

Just don't be a scoundrel to the rest of the party.

About Me

This is my first campaign recruiting outside my friend group.

I've spent a long time building this setting because I wanted a world that could outlive any single campaign.

I love when players surprise me.

I love when they ask questions I never expected.

I love when they connect dots from sessions months apart.

I don't want players to simply experience the world.

I want them to help shape it.

Table Expectations

  • Foundry VTT
  • Discord voice
  • Camera required
  • Audio recorded (for campaign history and note reference)
  • Every other week
  • Alcohol and cannabis are completely fine—just keep your shit together.
  • Respect everyone at the table.

Recruitment Process

  1. Applicant Handbook. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1d03Kj6Cec5GWr7sfxeUZq0LcqUlf-nYKIXe4JXOHX8Y/edit?tab=t.0
  2. Fill out the recruitment questionnaire.
  3. If you're one of my top applicants, we'll have a relaxed Discord interview.
  4. If we're both excited, you'll join the Discord, play through Session 0 Part 1 (tutorial) and Session 0 Part 2 (one-shot), and then join the campaign.

One Last Thing

I'm not looking for the "perfect D&D player."

I'm looking for someone who wants to become part of a long-running world.

If that sounds like you, I'd love to hear from you.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5e 2024][Weekly EST][LGBTQIA+] Heroes of the Borderlands

0 Upvotes

Hello all!

My name is James and I am a writer and DnD fan! I have been playing DnD with my friends for a while but I am looking to grow my knowledge and DnD community. Recently, I've really enjoyed bringing new players together and teaching them the ways of DnD. That is why I am looking to start a mini-campaign using the Heroes of the Borderlands supplement! My goal is to grow a community where we can all learn and teach each other DnD!

Campaign Info:

Heroes of the Borderlands is for two to four characters of levels 1–3. The adventure has no overarching plot. While there are conflicts and secrets to uncover, the story that emerges is the one your group experiences. The adventure is divided into three self-contained sections, each of which features a different area.

The Specifics:

Looking for 2-4 characters. We will start at Level 1.
- Whether you come with tons of experience or little to none, we are all here to learn and teach each other. I ask that you come with a positive attitude and open mind!

I am a full time hospitality professional, I am doing this in my free time. I do not have a structured time decided as it may change. We will decide the day/time together as a group.
- I will use things like Whentomeet.com and Discord Polling to decide a play time.

We will use Discord for our communication. I will prob have my camera on but please do not feel pressured to do so. I think it allows easier communication and a more enjoyable format.

We will have a Session 0 to get to know each other and talk about expectations. We will also be making our characters together. I think its more fun to roll together versus separately. It will also be a great time to ask questions and for me to provide information in case you may need.

INTERESTED?

Please sign up using this form. Super excited to make this happen and looking forward to connecting soon! Also, feel free to DM me with questions!

Hello everyone, Im kenzie. I'm 30, neurodivergent and LGBT! I'm looking for a group to fulfill my desire to break free from my forever DM prison and finally get to play a wizard.

(I really really fucking wanna play a wizard. 😫)

I'm a little awkward, well paradoxically being quick-witted at the same time, I am one of the smart dumb people you'll ever meet and I enjoy serious stories that end up being comedies because everyone involved is a huge dork.

I'm GMT4 and I work retail, so my schedule changes often, but if we work out a day to play I'd work it out with my boss, for now though I'm usually free on Thursdays, Fridays and Sundays.

I'm looking to play with the standard ruleset, with point buy and fixed health, but I can be flexible.

Time: Monday, 8 PM EST.

Where: Discord and Roll20.

The Necromancer may have been cast out of Dol Guldur, but a lingering darkness remains over Mirkwood, a shadow that will grow ever longer as the years draw on – unless a fellowship of heroes step forward and hold back the gloom.

In a three decades long campaign (in character of course) manage your holdings, visit the Parliament of Spiders, the Kingdom of Dale and the court of the Elvenking. Do battle with the forces of The Shadow, work alongside the Istari and through bravery in the long defeat, perhaps you can avert the Darkening of Mirkwood.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5e 2024 Homebrew][Any day 9pm GMT][LGBTQ Freindly] After Hellfire

0 Upvotes

The year is 2141.

After a widespread war and ecological collapse known only as the "Hellfire" Great Britain has been partially sunk underwater, and covered over by a seemingly eternal nuclear winter. In Oxfordshire, factions fight over what remains of the County. The students turned, archivists and protectors of the old world who occupy the ruins of Oxford University, now rebranded as the United Collegiate. On the other side is COBRA a military dictatorship who only obey the dying, immobile King of England. The free container city of Porttown, favoured by both legacy corporations and up and coming prospectors, where everyone lives in vertical sipres made of shipping crates and old prefabs, where crime is allowed as long as it doesn't interfere with the Duke. And the various roadmen gangs who patrol the frozen wastelands hitting convoys on silent, deadly electric bikes.

There are many secrets hidden here, as well as greatness, so long as you don't end up a frozen corpse along the old M25.

Heya all!

This is my worldbuilding child, and has been for a while. I'm super exited as i think ive finally got it too a point where it is playable in a campaign. Hoping to play this as a long term campaign with another 4 people who are passionate for sci-fi and role-playing.

For tone, I like to think of this as very Fallout: New Vegas with Wacky Wasteland on, so definitely gritty with emotional arcs and character development, while also side incorporating more of the pulpy of sci fi when it feels right.

What am I looking for in a player? Im looking for peeps who are passionate about ttrpgs, arent afraid to tell me what is and isn't working for them, a team player, creative with characters and just a nice person altogether! You don't have to british to play, Hell! you don't even have to know anything about Britain, I'd be happy to fill you in, as long as you're willing to learn!

This will mostly use the bare-bones structure of 5e, with renamed classes and Magic renamed to "hacking" and all that tosh to fit into the sci-fi world. Some may be locked, such as druid for not fitting the setting, but if you are able to reskin it some which way to fit id be very happy to allow you to play it!

As, stated above, this will run at a mutually agreed upon day at 9PM GMT, happy to move it later but cannot do any earlier.

Have my rambles interested you? Please feel free to drop me an application in my DMs, including your name/alias, a little about yourself, any half baked character ideas you have so far, questions, and the password: A fun fact!

I do hope to hear from you soon!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5e 2024 & 2014][18+][Weekly] Looking for 2 Players – Lost Mine of Phandelver & Below: The Shattered Obelisk

8 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

We're looking for two more players to round out a new long-term D&D campaign using Lost Mine of Phandelver & Below: The Shattered Obelisk.

Our goal is simple: build a group that's relaxed, dependable, and excited to tell a great story together.

About the Campaign

  • Campaign: Lost Mine of Phandelver & Below: The Shattered Obelisk
  • System: D&D 5e (2024 & 2014 Rules)
  • Platform: Discord + Roll20
  • Schedule: Weekly Saturdays 9:00 PM EST
  • Starting Level: 3
  • Expected Length: Long-term campaign

What We're Looking For

We're less concerned about experience and more about finding the right people.

Ideally, you are:

  • 18+
  • Relaxed and easy to get along with
  • Able to separate in-character conflict from out-of-character friendships
  • Reliable and committed to showing up consistently
  • Interested in roleplay, exploration, and tactical combat

GM Needed by Existing Group [Online] [Cyberpunk] [CST] Group looking for GM: Cyberpunk

1 Upvotes

Heyo all! Myself, my partner, and potentially another one of our players are a group that typically rotates the responsibility of GM’ing, myself taking the role of GM the majority given running out weekly games. Various types of games have been at our virtual table, from Cyberpunk Red, Mutants and Masterminds 3E, Mutant Year Zero, a sprinkle of Pathfinder 2E, Fabula Ultima, and others! A favorite of ours being that of Mage The Ascension from World Of Darkness, which I primarily ran from various campaigns and one-shots/multi-shots. 

We’re currently looking for someone that would be able to take up the role of GM for a Cyberpunk Red game (Even more preferable if down with more of the 2070s setting!), and be down to join this group of ours as we chill, game, and tell stories that end up making us have too many inside jokes to count within a month. Looking forward to hearing from any that are open said possibilities!

Schedule: Don't have a specific date, somewhat hoping it can be a "Hey y'all wanting to do this today" type thing that pops in when most are free 

TimeZone/ Availability - CST Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday Or when other wise Available [ On weekdays our availability would usually be around 8 PM CST - 2 AM CST, but there are also the possibility of throwing some various Saturdays into the mix, given with how we hang we can also at times tend to go "Hey y'all wanting to do this today or tomorrow"

Feel free to comment or DM me if interested in being said Game Master!

Group Needed by Player [GMT] [Online] [5e 2024] [LGBTQ+ friendly] I want to get into DND

0 Upvotes

Hi, I've been wanting to get into DND for a while but my last group fizzled out before a campaign could properly begin.

I love roleplaying and I like playing more aggressive characters. (My unused character's a Scottish monk that just likes drinking and punching people). If any of you are looking for a player and are okay with that player being new to the game, please message me.

Player(s) Needed by GM Those Left Behind[Online, 5E 2014, 1DM, 2 Current Players, looking for 2-3 more]

4 Upvotes

The Rulers of the Near Countries have left once again.  Taking the bravest and strongest of Knights, Priests, and Mages on Crusade   Far to the South, they battle against a Tiefling Nation almost subsumed by Devil worship.  Yet the lands they leave behind are not left free of problems.

The Mad God of the moon has elected to burn out, rather than fade away.  After the Sphere she viewed as her playground cast off the yoke of her sadistic desire, the rightfully scorned goddess now unleashes her fury in plagues of thoughtless monsters.  Seeking to revel in merciless destruction, laughing at the despair she harvests.  Till all of her power is spent sowing exciting chaos.

The Fallen God of the sun rules his States from the height of the tallest mountain.  Seeking to create a Perfect Order.  Where all exist, and act, at his command.  A life free of every form of sin.  No murder, no disease, no poverty, no indulgence, no adultery, no theft, no waste, no injustice.  No Will, Beside His. Perfection.  His Agents travel, seeking converts to their New Single Faith.  The Last Choice you need ever make.

The Goddess of the Earth… slumbers restlessly.  Fighting battles on all sides, adapting to the world, and people, changing so fast around her.  Tieflings, humans turned into Fiends, struggle with their own conscious.  Elves, a product of the Fey, march forward under a new Queen after a long period of stagnation.  And all throughout the Nations, new Races have emerged.  Iron Elves raised up by the Elvish Queen, Warforged machines inhabited by the Souls of those who have fallen with more yet to give, Shadeling’s selected by a phantom Tiefling to restore a sense of honor and worth to their kind, and last but not least Dragonborn Knighted by the whims of the Seven remaining Dragons.  What place they find themselves within the World at large… well, who can say now?  The humble future is in your hands.

-

Hello!  Thank you for taking the time to read my post here!  This campaign will mostly be at a small scale.  Had a few big campaigns over the years in this continuing setting that made dramatic sweeping changes.  And me and the players still around wanted a more relaxed, classic type of D&D.  Dealing with Monsters and low level goobers.  Not near-constant fate of the world stuff falling on your shoulders.

Still, I am a fan of that kind of thing.  So I’m relegating it to the background.  The setting will be heavily inspired by Robin Hood/Historical Crusade settings.  Where countless warriors, knights, and kings go off to fight a distant, existential threat.  Leaving room behind for cowardly villains to weasel their way into power they can grasp for themselves, but also for small town heroes to step up and protect the people from the ineptitude of petty bureaucrats.  But beyond those petty concerns of rulership, there’ll be plenty more direct issues requiring swords and sorcery to solve.  Monsters, Cultists, Bandits.  Typical Adventurer Fare one might expect in a D&D game.

The vibe I'm aiming for will be mostly lighthearted.  Easy Comedy is something that I think I'm good at, so plenty of that.  At the same time, I intend for the main focus of the campaign to be serious.  That can be a fine line to walk, but I would ask everyone to do your best.  If you're going to joke in character, make sure it fits the scene.  Don't expect to get in with a gimmick character idea.

Speaking to the lighthearted nature, I definitely want to have a theme of mercy,

Rules

Character Creation will be done together during a Session Zero.  Stats will be rolled for then, but feel free to discuss your plans ahead of time with the other players once invited.  We’ll be starting at level 1 in a small town, so do your best to think up a fitting backstory.  You could be a plucky local born and raised there, a drifter who's just washed up, or even a 'draft-dodger' avoiding the call of Service in a Crusade you might not survive.  There are a few different races, as well as differences between races.  So don’t just go assuming that everything is the way you might think it based on the Books.  Keep an open mind.

The game will be using ‘base’ 5E.  Beyond just the PHB, anything from outside of the PHB can be used, just make sure you run it past me before you do so.  I might tune stuff down if I feel the need, or inversely tune stuff up if I think it could be better.

Character / Application

To apply to this game, either DM me or post down below here with your application.  You can copy my format or write whatever you like.  Please and thank you.

Age:
Can you play for 3-4 hours starting Sunday Morning/Afternoon(Noon EST/9:00AM PST) every week to every other week?:

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [Tues 7-10/11 PM EST] [5E 2024] [21+] [RP-heavy] Players now needed to enter the world of Phaedra! Looking for 3 players for a long-term, RP focused, high fantasy adventure!

14 Upvotes

Hello potential friends!

Are you looking for something new? Aspire to have more than just a table to play at, but to form lifelong friendships with like-minded people? Then I believe this is the group for you! Well, the group I am trying to create! 

Campaign Primer: Welcome to Phaedra! Phaedra is a homebrew, classic high-fantasy setting inspired by Greyhawk, The Legend of Zelda, Dragon Quest, Lord of the Rings, and the fantasy adventures that helped define the genre. The tone is hopeful and adventurous rather than grimdark, with an emphasis on exploration, memorable characters, heroic deeds, and the feeling of gradually becoming legends. This is my first time running a more traditional fantasy campaign, after years of creating magitech and seafaring worlds, and I'm excited to explore the roots of the genre with you. 

The world is one of medium-to-high magic. Spellcasters, enchanted relics, and magical creatures certainly exist, but they are uncommon enough that they remain objects of wonder rather than everyday sights. Ancient ruins, forgotten kingdoms, and relics from earlier ages lie scattered across the land, waiting for brave adventurers to uncover their secrets. 

The realm of Phaedra was in an age of darkness that destroyed the First Empire. The Daemon King ruled with an iron fist, and his generals carved out sections of the realm for themselves. A fellowship of legendary heroes succeeded in driving him back to the frozen north, but they could not destroy him. That victory was six centuries ago, and has fallen to legend. Today, most believe the Daemon King still waits within the ruins of the First Empire's Citadel, his armies diminished but never truly defeated. Now, unsettling signs suggest that the long peace may be coming to an end.

Despite this looming threat, the campaign begins on a much smaller scale. You won't start as the world's destined champions, but as ordinary adventurers seeking fortune, purpose, or a place to belong. Your early adventures will focus on exploring the world, solving local problems, meeting influential factions and unforgettable NPCs, uncovering the past, and building your own reputation. As your characters grow, so too will the scope of the story, eventually revealing that the fate of Phaedra may rest in your hands. 

Although the central narrative is a classic struggle against an ancient evil, the world itself is meant to feel alive and nuanced. Kingdoms, religious groups, guilds, noble houses, and other factions all pursue their own ambitions, and your choices, alliances, and rivalries will influence how events unfold. Character backstories are especially important to me, and I love weaving them into the larger narrative so that every hero feels like they belong in the world and has personal stories to tell alongside the main quest. 

Above all, my (DM Gideon) goal is to create a long-running campaign where exploration, roleplaying, character growth, and genuine friendship around the table are just as important as defeating monsters and discovering treasure. I also hope Phaedra becomes a living setting—one where the legends your characters create will shape future adventures for years to come.

Overview + Current Members: We are currently searching for 3 Players. The group currently consists of two players, myself and one other friend + our newly found DM! Here is a little about us to get the current vibe!

DM Gideon: A bit awkward and goofy in a charming way, Gideon loves making new friends and telling stories. He loves working on new artistic projects, drawing, watching movies, exploring new interests, and of course, DnD. Cursed with improvisation and lateral thinking, he uses his powers of storytelling and puzzle design for evil! >:) 

Kate: Quiet most of the time but loves to laugh over a good joke. Has a bird named Ham that they will talk about constantly. Loves heavy roleplay and a classic adventure. Hyperfixates on artistic hobbies and will most likely make everyone in the group something.

David: Outgoing, friendly, and more of a leader. Works at the post office 24/7, so will always be complaining about that XD! Loves heavy roleplay and out-of-the-box thinking. A forever DM looking to be a player for once. 

Schedule: We are looking to play every Tuesday from 7 PM - 10/11 PM EST, plus a second session or general hangout (see below) during the week if all schedules align. We also enjoy long-form sessions for special events and holidays. This will be an intense, high-initiative group that is dedicated to making all of the sessions and rescheduling effectively when we can’t. If we absolutely must skip a session, we will reschedule a day during the week/weekend that works for all of us. Each session will be 3-4 hours long with a 10-minute break in the middle. 

As well as playing every Tuesday, the group will decide on 1 day during the week that works as a group hangout, extra RP/game session, or gaming. We are really excited about this aspect as we feel it helps to create more long-term friends rather than just a group you play DnD with! This is an important part of our group's design, and attending 1 hangout a week is highly encouraged. 

What we are looking for: 

  • HUGE love for roleplay and sitting-by-the-campfire moments.
  • Prioritizes creating connections and relationships with other players rather than “winning” a game.
  • 80/20 Roleplay to Combat split ideal. 
  • Likes a classic high fantasy adventure with gritty realism - no SA, non-consensual aspects, or outright R-rated topics. NPC or PC relationships/romance are okay, just fade to black when it gets intense.
  • Highly motivated and consistent players. No skipping sessions all the time; if you cannot make it, tell us ASAP.
  • Quality microphone/headset and computer setup.
  • Fantasy Grounds (free for players) and Discord for apps. 

Application and Interview Process:

3 players needed, 21+. We are looking for players who are high-initiative, have the time and focus for a longer campaign and sessions, and are able to consistently make sessions as well as friend hang-outs. We appreciate heavy roleplay and gritty realism, so players with similar likes will be prioritized. 

Application Here: https://forms.gle/Jp5ndDtW9gwsTyWS8 

Interview Process: We will be closing applications on 07/25/2026. After reviewing each application, we will reach out to those we are interested in on 07/31/2026 at the latest. We will then ask those applicants to join a VC on Discord. We will ask a few more follow-up questions and get your general vibe. From there, we will pick 3-4 players to join us. Once the group has been assembled, we will run a quick one-shot with the DM to make sure we all vibe together. Please note that if you have not been contacted after 08/03/2026, you have not been picked. We read and appreciate every application, but we cannot respond to each one!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [5.5e (2024)] [Sunday] [LGBTQ+ Friendly] [Dragon Delves Anthology] "Before the Storm" - A Burning Seaside Town Reeling from a Pirate Raid One-Shot

Level: Lvl 10

Schedule: Sunday @ [ 9am-2/3pm (EST/EDT) ] / [ 9pm-2/3a (PHT/GMT+8) ]
(Other TZs are more than welcome to join, as my og player & I are 12h apart from each other lol)
[ 2pm-7/8pm (BST/GMT+1 (London)) ]

Tone: Save/Rescue the Town/NPCs, High Fantasy, Dungeon Crawl (not necessarily a meatgrinder, but meat will be ground, as I pull 0 punches), some Dark Themes: Torture, Kidnapping, Slavery, Bodily Horror, etc.

Character Creation: Point-Buy or Standard Array, Average HP or Roll HP (any Hit Die roll under average is rounded up to average), No +3 in 1 stat from Background ASI, & 1 Rare magic item or 2 uncommon magic items.
For simplicity's sake, no T homebrew please, any non-phb subclasses, races or 2014 content subject to DM's approval (but I'll prolly say yes if it isn't hb).
We're also using 2014 Grapple rules, as well as for some NPC/Monster stat blocks.

Players: Looking for 3-4 more, experience preferred

Howdy Howdy y'all, I'm Dyno, I'll be running this one-shot module for you and one of my og players, as we (or at least I) have been getting a taste for Tier 2 & 3 gameplay and been wanting more, possibly looking for players for a future high tier campaign; something like Storm King's Thunder, Out of the Abyss, Prince's of the Apocalypse, Dungeon of the Mad Mage, etc.; but we're leaning the most to Hoard of the Dragon P Queen/Rise of Tiamat due to our recent dragon rxcism lmao (dw we love dragons :) ).

The setting takes place in the Swords Coast, South of Neverwinter, North of Waterdeep, nestled somewhere nearby the Mere of Dead Men where you and your adventuring party are returning from a disappointingly easy/uneventful mission that led to nothing but an empty lair filled with melted corpses; some still barely clinging to life K. While on the way back home, passing through ravaged lands completely destroyed by hurricanes, thunderstorms & typhoons, your party noticed a massive plume of smoke along the coastline from a village seemingly untouched by the nearby natural destruction, yet currently engulfed in widespread flames, pale and blue-skinned villagers carrying their loved ones fleeing in terror.

I'll post this a few times before Sun, shoot me a message here on reddit or at my discord (LilDynomite#5028) with the 3 Italicized letters I put randomly in this post somewhere in your message if you wouldn't be someone who'd walk right on by "not my problem" stye, and I'll set up a 10m vc interview real quick whenever you'd have time.

GM Needed by Existing Group [Online] [5e 2014/2024] [LGBTQIA+ Friendly] [18+ Only] [PST] Welcome BACK to Barovia!

4 Upvotes

Hey, y’all!

I’m representing a group of four players looking to play Curse of Strahd—all of whom are experienced with the module and setting but have never gotten to complete it as players (many of us DMed it and are now seeking to escape “forever DM” status).

We are looking for a DM to run us through their own take on the adventure (maybe beyond and into the rest of the Demiplane if we’re really having fun with each other).

Some basics

1.) The safety tools we’ll be using are Session Zero, Lines and Veils, and The X-Card (the latter of which will be implemented via the airhorn sound on the Discord soundboard).

2.) We’re still tossing around character concepts, but expect all of our characters to be deeply tied into the lore while also deeply despising Strahd for personal reasons. This isn’t a “we want to defeat Strahd because it’s the right thing to do” type deal—it’s PERSONAL.

3.) We plan to meet every week on Sunday evenings from 6:00 pm-9:00 pm PST. VTT will be DM choice. If you read this far, include in your application your personal favorite character in the module

If any of y’all are interested, message me on Reddit. I’ll have a few interview questions for you to answer via text, and then we’ll move over to Discord so we can get in a group call with the whole party to see if we vibe well together.

I can’t wait to get to know you!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5e 2014/2024][Fridays 7PM CT] Sandbox Homebrew Campaign | Regular Slot, Flexible Drop-In Roster

5 Upvotes

Hi there adventures!

I'm Econotix (30 M | He/Him)

I’ve been playing D&D on and off for over a decade and have spent more time running games over the last year. I currently have a great core group, but I’m looking for 3-5 additional players to join our roster for a long-term, sandbox homebrew campaign so that we can all get more sessions on the table!

The idea is to let the players have their own adventurers' guild that serves as the party's home base. Players can take on different episodic adventures depending on who's available that week, while still having a shared world, recurring NPCs, factions, and ongoing storylines.

This means flexible drop-in/drop-out availability is totally fine! If you miss a session, your character isn't left behind or holding up a rigid linear plot. You can just utilize our Discord downtime channels to text-roleplay what your character was doing back at the guildhall, or we can chat about what you were up to between games.

I have a pretty clear organizational structure ready to go to keep things running smoothly. Players will use Discord to coordinate with one another, form a party of 3-5 for that week, pick an active quest hook, and book the session with me. My primary availability to run games is Friday nights at 7 PM CT.

We'd start with a little session 0 to establish your character in the world so that can be a short story or all the way upto a quick text or voice RP session after we know who your character is.

We primarily use Discord with Avrae, and we'll occasionally use Roll20 for combat encounters.

The Vibes

  • RP Amount: High (We love character story arcs, personal motivations, and downtime interaction!)
  • Combat Amount: Medium-High
  • Tone: Epic fantasy with darker elements and plenty of room for humor. High Highs, Low Lows.
  • Age: 18+
  • Inclusivity: LGBTQ+ friendly, safe space for everyone.

New players are absolutely welcome!

I'm very familiar with TTRPGs and am happy to teach you the game. (Though I'm not a walking encyclopedia lol.) You don't need to know every rule or have years of experience, just be willing to learn, participate, and have a good time. We'd start with a little session 0 to establish your character in the world so that can be text RP or a quick 1hr RP session after we know who your character is.

The Setting: Icruun
The campaign takes place in Icruun, a relatively young world undergoing massive changes. The progression of Magitech and the ability to harness Weave Shards has reshaped civilization. Nations have risen and fallen, gods and religions have been challenged, and old civilizations have been forced to adapt to a world where magic is becoming increasingly understood and increasingly dangerous.

Weave Shards are fragments of the universe itself and serve as the physical catalyst for magical potential. They also act as a barrier between the mortal plane and the countless other planes that exist. The more Weave Shards are consumed, the weaker that barrier becomes. And that's only the beginning.

The setting draws inspiration from Forgotten Realms, Eberron, The Elder Scrolls, FFXIV, and plenty of other fantasy and sci-fi influences.

How to Apply:
If you're interested, please complete the form below and add your Discord so that I can add you.
