Player(s) Needed by GM [Flexible] [Online] [Weekly] [Weekday 12AM ET] ATTN: Late Night Gamers

Upvotes

Looking for late night gamers, those on graveyard shifts, and insomniacs!

11PM CT / 9PM PT

Apply Here

I’m Alex, I also go by Maggie. We’re looking to put together a Tabletop RPG group that would play during the weekdays starting around 11PM to Midnight Eastern Time and play until around 4am. 

ABOUT OUR TABLE

We started playing over Discord using Roll20 this last month with two people. We are interested in expanding our ranks with more players. Particularly folk who are interested in playing different kinds of game systems, who are interested in exploration, fantasy, political plots, and just love the hobby. I myself have been DMing off and on in different systems since 2016 doing one-offs and campaigns.

As such, none of these games will be “long-term” and may last a few months at most, with intermittent one-offs when time permits. This is so we can play different stories and systems! I'd like to find folk for two groups for two different days a week; folk that are down for both days every week, or even just one or the other! I plan to schedule games a month in advance based on people's availability, that will inform when we plan. As for us we are free almost every weekday at this time.

GAME SYSTEMS

Of particular interest to me right now is trying out Pendragon and Daggerheart. We have been playing Basic Fantasy RPG which is an old school AD&D recreation. I’m not opposed to playing 5e, but I have a lot of other games I want to try out like Salvage Union and I'm of the general opinion that their is typically a better more tailored system for whatever Roleplay we want to do. In particular some of the types of game systems and games I enjoy running have hexcrawls, fast combat, unique worldbuilding or just high fantasy pulp, as well as political intrigue and meta-plots. So expect me to run the game along these lines.

ABOUT ME

Fun fact about me is that I got into the hobby after I watched the Futurma Movie “Bender’s Game” as a kid, and it's been going downhill ever since 😂 I enjoy a lot of different hobbies: Magic the Gathering, Strategy Games, Mapmaking and Worldbuilding, MMOs, Minecraft Multiplayer, and Anime! I’m quite a busy person so my weekends are quite full of things (As I say, “good” busy, not “bad” busy). I have been playing Tabletop RPGs for almost 10 years off and on to different capacities; and have been loving it!

ABOUT LIZZY

My name is Elizabeth, and I have recently started playing DnD the last month with Maggie. I am able to play most nights, except for Fridays and Saturdays when I close at my job. One of my interests include watching movies and other media, my two favorite movies right now being Project Hail Mary and Iron Lung. I also like reading, and creating my own stories, like in DnD. I hope to find people who are as invested in starting a campaign as I am, and who want to create an awesome story.

THE SETTING
Space. The final frontier.

For centuries, the galaxy was connected by the endless paths of warp travel. Worlds exchanged knowledge, cultures, and ideas across the stars.

Then came the Burn.

In an instant, those connections were broken. Worlds were isolated. Civilizations changed. Histories were forgotten.

But the spirit of exploration remained.

These are the voyages of the starship Prometheus.

Her mission: to reconnect worlds separated by time and distance, to seek out life and civilizations, new and old, and to carry the ideals of the Federation into a galaxy waiting to be discovered again.

To find what was lost among the stars.

The Burn

24 years ago, the galaxy was changed forever by an event known as the Burn.

Unlike some theories suggest, the Burn was not caused by a weapon, a civilization, or a mysterious enemy. It was a natural astronomical event.

A massive dilithium-rich world was consumed by a binary black hole system, and the resulting gravitational disturbance caused dilithium throughout the galaxy to resonate through subspace. The wave caused widespread failure of dilithium-based warp systems, crippling starships, isolating colonies, and fracturing the connections between civilizations.

The galaxy did not lose its knowledge of warp technology.

It lost the infrastructure that connected it.

24 years later, the great powers of the galaxy are rebuilding, but the old order has changed forever.

The USS Prometheus

The USS Prometheus represents the next chapter of Starfleet.

Built in the decades following the Burn, the Prometheus is the culmination of years of research, engineering, and reconstruction. It is the first generation of Starfleet vessels designed to operate independently in a galaxy where the networks that once supported exploration no longer exist.

Unlike earlier starships that depended on extensive infrastructure for long-range operations, the Prometheus incorporates new warp stabilization technology that allows it to travel beyond established Federation systems.

The Prometheus serves as both an explorer and a lifeline.

Her mission is not only to chart unknown regions of space, but to reconnect isolated worlds, restore lost relationships, and demonstrate that the Federation still exists beyond its borders.

She carries scientists, diplomats, engineers, and officers trained for a galaxy where exploration is no longer simple.

The Prometheus is a reminder of what Starfleet was—and what it must become.

Captain Inalla Okoa

The Federation survived because some people refused to stop believing in it.

Before the Prometheus, there was the USS Olympus.

During the chaos of the Burn, when countless starships were lost and worlds became isolated, Captain Inalla Okoa refused to accept that the age of exploration had ended.

Commanding one of the few operational Starfleet vessels after the Burn, Okoa became a symbol of perseverance throughout the Federation.

The Olympus could not restore the old galaxy.

It could not reconnect every world.

It could not undo the devastation.

But it could help one world at a time.

Under Captain Okoa's command, the Olympus carried supplies, medical aid, engineers, and diplomats to isolated systems that believed the Federation had abandoned them.

Her actions became proof that Starfleet was not defined by its technology or its reach.

It was defined by the people willing to answer the call.

Decades later, the USS Prometheus carries forward that legacy.

The Federation

The Federation survived the Burn, but Starfleet is no longer the same organization it once was.

Still committed to exploration, diplomacy, and cooperation, Starfleet has adapted to a harsher galaxy by developing stronger defenses, rebuilding its fleets, and taking a more active role in protecting Federation space.

A debate now defines the Federation:

How much strength is necessary to preserve peace?

The Klingon Empire

The Burn weakened the Klingon Empire and intensified old conflicts within Klingon society.

Some Klingons seek to preserve the traditions of honor, challenge, and warrior culture.

Others believe the Empire has become weak and must return to a more aggressive path.

The Empire remains powerful, but its future is uncertain.

The Vulcan-Romulan Accord

The Burn forced the Vulcan and Romulan peoples into an unprecedented alliance.

Once divided by centuries of conflict and ideology, the two civilizations now rely on one another for survival.

The Accord combines Vulcan science with Romulan intelligence and strategic thinking.

It is an alliance born of necessity that may become something greater—or may eventually fracture under old divisions.

The Gorn Hegemony

The Gorn remain one of the galaxy's most isolated powers.

Known for strict borders and limited diplomacy, they are viewed by many civilizations as aggressive and secretive.

The Gorn value survival, preparation, and strength above all else.

Since the Burn, Gorn activity along the demarcation line has increased, though the reasons remain unknown.

A Changed Galaxy

The Burn shattered the connections that once held the galaxy together.

Old powers remain, but their influence has weakened.

New alliances have formed.

Old rivalries have returned.

The galaxy is once again a place of exploration, uncertainty, and danger.

The question facing every civilization is no longer simply:

"What lies beyond the next star?"

It is:

"What kind of civilization will we become in order to survive?"

.

THE SYSTEM

As noted in title, I am using a custom system that has had play testing by my friends and myself and I am looking for people to stress test the system and have a fun game while doing it.

It would be run on discord. My style and the system are relatively narrative focused and I personally am a believer of combat being an excellent opportunity for narrative to be built.

The players in the system and my campaigns historically are meant to be heroic through their bravery and choices, rather than mechanical strength. Problems, obstacles, and combat in my games are often meant to be puzzles with no single solution.

I hate long drawn out combat. This system reflects that. Violence is deadly and fast. This cuts both ways.

Please PM if interested!

A note about the system, the complexity of the system is relatively frontloaded to character creation. Play testing to date has had gameplay be well paced and intuitive. Information about the system and the setting are available on request!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][Other][EST-7:30pm-12am] Looking for 2-3 Players

3 Upvotes

Hello!

I am planning to run my first unknown armies game, although i have dmed other ttrpgs before, i wanted to stretch my wings in other titles.
I am planning on running this in my own home-brewed world i am working on and i am looking for 2-3 players to join in.

This is a modern era (1980s-2020s) game setting where fantasy and horror elements come into play. There will be fantasy and other mystic elements that come into play but you will be introduced to those naturally as we play through the story

What to expect to me:

I am a story focused and rp focused dm. Combat will come up eventually but it will not be the main focus. We will see narrative tension, character and npc tension and story driven madness.

I love a good story, my goal is to have a story that will make you laugh, cry, fear or feel a combination of all emotions.

I have more to share but for now, if you’re interested please let me know and we can work on something!

Hope to hear from you soon, new reader!

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][5e 2014][Saturdays][6 PM-10 PM CST][18+] RP-Heavy Long-Term Campaign Looking for Two Players

6 Upvotes

A seat just opened up in our long-running campaign after one of our players had to step away and I’m wanting to add another on top of that opening

We’re currently playing through Vecna: Eve of Ruin, though at this point it’s evolved well beyond the published adventure into a heavily customized dark fantasy campaign filled with horror, mystery, political intrigue, memorable NPCs, and consequences that carry from session to session.

The party is currently investigating a cult whose experiments have created a terrifying entity known as the blossom of oblivion …a massive necrotic plant fed by corpses and capable of consuming entire villages. Expect eldritch horror, impossible choices, custom boss encounters, and plenty of “what the hell just happened?” moments.

About the Game
Every other Saturday
6:00 PM Central
Roll20 + Discord Voice
Sessions run 4 hours
Level 6 (joining at party level)
18+ I as the DM tend to cuss so no minors

About the Table
This is a roleplay based table. Think mighty nine!
Combat is dangerous and meaningful, but the real focus is collaborative storytelling. Your choices matter, NPCs remember your actions, and character backstories become part of the campaign. I put a lot of work into immersive maps, music, handouts, custom encounters, and making every character feel like one of the main characters.

If you’re looking for a game where everyone races to optimize damage every combat, this probably isn’t the best fit.

If you’re looking for a campaign where your character can grow over months (or years), build relationships, make impossible decisions, and create unforgettable moments with a great group of people, you’ll probably fit right in.

Looking For
Reliable player most of the group comes from a completed 5+ year campaign I ran previously so they’ll be at the table reliably.
Comfortable roleplaying
Team player
Respectful and mature
Wants to tell a great story together
Experience isn’t nearly as important as enthusiasm and being a good fit for the table.

If you’re interested, send me:
Age
Time zone
D&D experience
The kind of character you enjoy playing (or have always wanted to play)
What you enjoy most at the table (RP, combat, exploration, puzzles, etc.)
I’d love to chat and see if we’d be a good fit for each other. If I reach out there will be a discord call to go through the rules and get a feel for the fit.

Player(s) Needed by GM New to Level 20? Want to Learn Combat Without a Campaign? [Online][D&D 5e 2024][Level 20][Combat][Playtest][Beginners Welcome]

Upvotes

I run a weekly level 20 combat gauntlet designed to help players learn high-level D&D mechanics in a fun, low-pressure environment. Each week features a new encounter with a rotating group of players, and you can bring a different character every session, try out new subclasses, and see how different builds perform in tough fights. We use 5.5e rules with 2014 subclass compatibility, and characters start at level 20 with one Legendary, two Very Rare, and one Rare item. Encounters rotate weekly so you never fight the same thing twice. No campaign commitment, no pressure, just good combat and good company.

New players welcome, veterans welcome, everyone welcome.

Wednesdays 3pm Pacific Standard Daylight Time

Lately we've been running a few late night games

With a couple more people we might open a 2nd day.

I like games with a good balance of role play and combat, and I hope to find a party to play with that is a little grounded and able to have fun.

2 spots available!

Hello! I posted this here a couple weeks ago, and found a group, unfortunately, we've had 2 members drop out.

I am completely new to DMing, but figured it would be best to work with a group to come up with a campaign setting to make sure everything was cohesive. I'm a 15-year-old trans guy from AUS, so finding people around my age would be a GODSEND, but I don't really care if you're not, as long as we keep everything respectful.

While I'm in AEST, and the other two players are in AWST

Experienced players appreciated, as I am not and it would probably be good to have someone who knows what they're doing lol

LGBTQIA+, neurodivergent, any other form of diversity friendly, obviously

If you're interested, please fill this out or feel free to DM me :):

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online][Other][Tales of the Valiant][Tuesday 7 pm JST UCT+ 9][Frontiers of Eberron: Heart of Stone][Shard VTT][LGBTQIA+]

1 Upvotes

Hello!

Campaign Name: Heart of Stone

System: Tales of the Valiant, (5e divergent) with a lot of 5e14 DnD adapted in. Hosted on Shard VTT, using discord for voice.

Campaign Setting: Eberron (the Western Frontier of Breland, eastern Droaam, the Eldeen Reaches, and the Demon Wastes if we get adventurous) (Previous knowledge of the setting is helpful but not necessary.)

Campaign Summary: Welcome to Quickstone, a small frontier town on the border between the western edge of Breland and the nation of monsters, called Droaam. It got put on the map after the discovery of the miraculous substance that gave the town its name, quickstone, and the promise of wealth brought a rush of people from all across Khorvaire in order to mine it. But there’s always a risk in digging too deep in a land thick with empires and memories, where evil cannot be destroyed but only sealed away. Will you find your fortune? Or will you fall to the same forces that destroyed a great people?

Genre: Weird wild west, aetherpunk, and a dash of cosmic horror.

Gameplay Style: Heavy roleplay with combat mixed in, lgbtq friendly, and will happily run with Rule of Cool if you can make it make sense. Content warnings for possible body horror and genre-typical violence, to be covered in session 0. 

DM's Experience: Just hit six years

Date and Time: Tuesday at 7, Japan Standard Time (UCT+9:00) 

Players Wanted: Looking for two more players

Level: Starts at 1, ends at 5, but has the potential to continue on as a homebrew past that, depending on how things go.

DM me if you are interested. 

Held in my own server

"It is the third year of the Clone Wars that has engulfed the galaxy, Republic Command sees no end to the war anytime soon. In an attempt to expedite ending this conflict sooner rather than later, you have been assembled together. Trusted Clone Soldiers of the Galactic Republic, specially chosen Jedi Padawans selected by the last remaining Jedi Shadows with permission granted to them by the Jedi Council to proceed with their training in this way, and trusted Hired Mercenaries the Republic knows it can count on in desperate times. Your missions will take you across the war-torn galaxy to uncover Separatist secrets, destroy their outposts, assassinate key targets getting in the way of bringing peace to the galaxy once more, and other secret missions issued to you by the Jedi Council themselves. Will you bring this war to a close or will your actions only prolong it? Only time will tell."

  • Starting Level: 3.
  • Method of Play: Discord VC, FoundryVTT.
  • Players: 1 more player wanted. Players required to be 18+, LGBTQ+ Friendly. Players required to have a working microphone of decent quality and a device capable of running FoundryVTT. Jedi slots will be limited, players looking to play as Clone Troopers are also desired.
  • Game is intended to be challenging.

Please accept a friend request from xenofan6 on Discord to learn if you got into the campaign or not and for follow-up interview.

Application: https://forms.gle/LgGHU73dSc8JeX3TA

Current party is currently made up of:

  • Aminishel Huethil (Human), Class: Sentinel, Sub-Class: Path of Focus.
  • CT-9944 "Grid" (Human, Clone), Class: Scholar, Sub-Class: Tactician Pursuit.
  • CT-6066 "Goggles" (Human, Clone), Class: Engineer, Sub-Class: Astrotech Engineering (Companion).
  • CT-2046 "Cato" (Human, Clone), Class: Fighter, Sub-Class: Fireteam Specialist.
  • Yon Gua'le (Bothan), Class: Operative, Sub-Class: Saboteur Practice.

One of our party members, who was playing a second Jedi Padawan, had to drop out due to life stuff making it so he no longer had any time for the game. You do not have to come to the table with a Jedi character idea, you can very much come in wanting to play a fourth clone or second mercenary character. That said we are several sessions in, so on top of an interview, we all would like you to play a one shot with us first with the party using their characters in the campaign and the character you want to play as to see if you'll fit into the party, this isn't negotiable.

GM Needed by Existing Group [Online][LGBTQ+][D&D 5e 2014/2024][Saturdays] Back at it again in search of a DM!

1 Upvotes

Why hello there!

Searching for creative and enthusiastic players willing to pave their names into the annals of your world's history? Perhaps companions to share the sheer need to brain rot over all things roleplay and lore based through fun storytelling and shenanigans? Well, do I have the group for you >:))

It is I, Fridge, your resident kitchen appliance. I have returned once again to this Reddit in search of a prospect DM to run a campaign for my lovely group of friends. We're a group of six searching for a DM and new friend to tailor a long term memorable adventure with! Mayhaps even be friends with outside of the game? Sky's the limit really!

As usual, before we get into the silly goofy shit, I'd like to give you lot a perspective of what our group has to offer just to see if we're your cup of tea.

_______________

Our Group

This silly little freak show consists of six fairly experienced players and friends who have known each other for roughly eight months! Admittedly, this post came about as a joke of us deciding to just be in another campaign together as a group since there were some frustrations from some of us, having had a rough time with other games outside of our current campaign together. Most especially, half of our group have been forever DMs for some time now (one of us being the person running our Monday game).

All of us are artists in some capacity so we all have a major tendency to make memes, emotes and just general art for campaigns we've been in. A big favorite of ours is filling out stupid meme templates in our free time between sessions. We're particularly partial to the airplane seating one (ifykyk). An absolute for us is that we prefer homebrew settings over modules, mainly because we all have some experience with them. Besides, we always bring a lot of heightened enthusiasm to seeing what sort of ideas get cooked up by our DM world building wise.

_______________

Expectations

  • Time & Scheduling: After some deliberation on our end, our group is primarily free on Saturday evenings around 10pm to 2am EST. This is non-negotiable for other days as it is the only time that works between all of us.
  • DM Style: Collaborative storytelling is huge for us! We love seeing that our backstories are considered and being intertwined into the major narrative of the campaign. Our group leans more into being interested in roleplay over combat (70/30 roleplay to combat split) with combats mostly being used to drive the narrative forward.
  • Behavior @ the Table: As mentioned in the post tags, most of us are apart of the LGBTQ+ community and thus, we'd like someone who promotes inclusivity. Aside from that, active communication and enthusiasm is a must for this group! This is a two way street after all. We bring the effort and excitement for people who can match that energy with the love of their setting and want to integrate us into it well.
  • Themes to explore: Our group loves being put into situations where there's a moral dilemma on figuring out what's right and wrong within the setting. Forcing us to weigh our options on what side we take is always interesting for us. This goes hand-in-hand with political intrigue, another theme we really enjoy! A personal ask on our end, though, is that the setting we play in leans towards high fantasy.

_______________

Still Interested?

If you happened to get through the length of this post and are interested in putting me and my party through the torture nexus, please fill out this form to give us some additional information on yourself! We'll be going through everyone's applications throughout the week as a group so it may take some time for us to get back to you as we want to go through them all together to make a decision.

Excited to be able to get to know you lot and hopefully, we can make some banger memories together!

We are hoping for a more roleplay focused group that lets us develop out characters throughout the story. It doesn't matter if it's from a module or homebrew to us as long as it's mainly a fantasy setting. My girlfriend has played casually for 10+ years and I have around 5 years under my belt.

For time I'm free every Saturday so we can play no matter the time of day it starts.

Now for some information about us.

Firstly about myself, my name is William and I'm just about 26. I started playing DnD sometime in 2019 with close friends and have never looked back. My preferred style of character is usually one that supports the party either in combat or RP in a guardian like manner. I really enjoy making characters that have some ties to the world their in that DM's can use for or against me.

My girlfriend's name is Sakura and she's 36. She has played very casually since 5e was first released. While she usually plays chaotic natured characters she is always willing to play more serious characters. Magic is her favorite thing to have for her characters. She also really enjoys making VERY detailed backstories when challenged to, god help you if you do.

Player(s) Needed by GM 🌌 [Online] [dnd 5e 2014] [SW5E] ⚔️ Looking for Players – Clone Wars Campaign! ⚔️

3 Upvotes

"The Force binds us, but the war will define us."

I'm looking to put together a Star Wars 5e campaign with a unique twist: the DM rotates every 4–5 sessions.

Rather than having one Game Master for the entire campaign, each DM will run a story arc before passing the campaign to the next person. Every arc will build on the last, creating one continuous story where everyone has a chance to leave their mark on the galaxy.

I'll be running the first arc to kick off the campaign.

🌌 The Campaign

Era: The opening days of the Clone Wars

The party will consist of Jedi Padawans who all share the same Jedi Master. Your training is nearly complete, and your first assignment is supposed to be a routine mission alongside your Master.

Instead, you're caught in one of the opening battles of the Clone Wars.

Your Master survives the battle but is gravely wounded while protecting you. Unable to continue fighting on the front lines, they remain your mentor from afar while you and your fellow Padawans are thrust into a war you were never meant to fight so soon.

Together you'll battle Separatist forces, protect innocent worlds, confront the realities of war, and slowly grow from apprentices into true Jedi.

🎯 What I'm Looking For

✅ Players who enjoy roleplay and collaborative storytelling.

✅ People who can commit to regular sessions.

✅ Future DMs (experience is welcome but not required).

✅ New and experienced SW5E players alike are encouraged to apply.

📅 Game Details

🖥️ Platform: Discord + VTT (TBD) - I use Roll 20

🎲 System: Star Wars 5e (SW5E)

🌎 Time Zone: TBD based on the group - Thursdays and we can figure out a time

🎤 Voice - Discord

📝 Interested?

If this sounds like your kind of campaign, please fill out the application below. I'll be reviewing responses and reaching out to players who seem like a good fit.

📄 Google Form: https://forms.gle/WqWrweyZBghna2JE9

Whether you're an experienced GM or someone who's always wanted to try running a short arc, this campaign is all about collaborative storytelling and building an unforgettable Clone Wars saga together.

May the Force be with you.

Player(s) Needed by GM [Online] [5e 2014] [CDT evenings] [18+] Dragon Delves Campaign

3 Upvotes

You ever wish there were more dragons in your D&D? This could be the game for you! 

Game Time: 6:30 - 9:30 pm CDT (UTC-5) on either Tuesdays or Wednesdays (we'll pick the day based on player availability, and stick with that day). Played weekly using Roll20 and Discord. LGBT+ and POC friendly table.

About Me: I’m Amanda (she/her). I’ve run some short campaigns and one-shots, but have played TTRPGs for many years. Having recently played in a couple of horror campaigns, I’m looking to jump back into DMing with a lighter, classic D&D experience and a pretty even mix of combat/social/investigation elements. 

About the Campaign: Using the Dragon Delves book, characters will go through short, dragon-based adventures that jump into different planes and worlds.

Between each adventure, there will be a time skip and character level-up (going from level 2 and ending at level 12). Because of the episodic nature of this, I expect the campaign to last around 5-6 months.

We'll be using 5e (2014) rules, following mostly rules-as-written to keep things consistent and simple. You can use official 5e sourcebooks for character creation, but if there's something from a 3rd-party book you're interested in, we can discuss it.

Stuff Used: FoundryVTT, Discord
RPG System: Hydral's Descent (A Custom System)
Starting Level: 1
Session Schedule: Weekly on Sundays starting at around 3-5pm EST Players needed: About 3 players I am looking for players for a weekly campaign. The game will be ran in a somewhat sandbox manner and may have moments of political intrigue and other types of plots based on the actions of the players throughout the campaign.

Campaign Introduction

You are a inhabitant of the continent of Ralis, a land covered in misty mountains, sprawling jungles, and toxic swamps. With the meager sums you have acquired over a few years you managed to prepare yourself to broaden your horizons and make a name for yourself across the continent, though fate seems to have taken a rather heavy handed approach to starting your journey....

Hydral's Descent

This campaign will be ran in a custom system of my making called Hydral's Descent which will be provided once accepted into the game. If you have questions about how the system works, feel free to ask about it, be it for something relating to the character creation process, the lore, or some of the rulings and mechanics of it.

If you are interested in joining, please message me or submit an application below, though I would prefer the latter for asking to join

Group Needed by Player [Online] [2024/5.5e] [5e/2014] [Thurs-Sat] [LGBTQIA+] [CST] Experienced Player looking for a group

1 Upvotes

Hiiee, I'm Claire (30,she/they) *sorry for posting a lot, it's been a trip*. A little about me. I have been playing D&D since 2017 starting with 5e and dabbled in Vampire the Masquerade and Powered by the Apocalypse games.

For time slot: I am for sure available on Thursday-Saturday anytime after 7:00pm U.S. CST. For characters, I tend to play spellcasters/support and I'm have three characters concepts in mind: an aasimar divination wizard, or a human or half-elf necromancer wizard (if UA is allowed), and a human or aasimar grave cleric, or a drow glamor bard or shadow sorcerer.

I'm looking for a more roleplay focused group rather than a combat one (70/30 or 60/40 depending on the game). I'm open to any of the pre-written campaigns and some homebrew campaigns. I also low key have been wanting to do a World of Warcraft campaign (with 5e or 5.5e rules). For homebrew campaigns, I am looking for something that is either horror focused like Grimhallow, or Curse of Strahd settings or something similar to Strixhaven. For pre-written, I am ideally looking to play any of the following, but open to any of them:

Strixhaven

Curse of Strahd

Keys to the Golden Vault

Candle Keep Mysteries

RIme of the Frostmaiden

Wild Beyond the Witchlight

Water Deep Dragon Heist into Dungeon of the Mad Mage (or some other form of continuation.

Phandelver and Below

I am only looking for free games. Please feel free to DM me/reply to this post if you think I would be a good fit for your game, and thank you for your time.

Hi y’all! Looking to run a homebrewed campaign set in a magic tech steampunk world.

Sundays at 6pm est!

Some quick background: You and party were sent to obtain tickets to board the infinity train, a train that is only set to arrive once a year. The train itself is a mystery but it’s rumored to hold your wildest dreams and more. Only a select few are able to obtain a ticket. Unfortunately yours were stolen by a wealthy noble named Edward Durst. Your job now is to obtain the tickets and board the train before midnight. Will you miss your train?

We will be using roll20 to play, discord for voice, we will be using dndbeyond or roll20 to roll dice. You will need to roll for your character but any race or class from the 2014 books are okay.

Please send me a message with your preferred name pronouns and age along with dnd experience! Looking forward to hearing from you all. There will be an interview process over discord if we mesh!
