Howdy everyone,

I’m excited to invite you to an open game of Dungeons and Dragons tomorrow night at Wizard City

Whether you're a seasoned hero or a curious newcomer, our table is ready for you to dive into a world of magic, mystery, and mayhem where anything can happen—and probably will!

Sharpen your sword, ready your spells, and let’s roll some dice!

**Character building begins at 6 PM, and the game starts at 7 PM.**

November the 2nd, Saturday

We have 2 out of 6 seats available, so grab your spot and prepare for a night full of epic adventures and unforgettable stories!

But wait...What the heck is Wizard City? Aren't we playing DND?

We can answer that and YES!!!

What is Wizard City?

A magical world and creative project born from our passion for storytelling, music, and art. We are a collective of artists, musicians, and dreamers bringing Wizard City to life across multiple mediums—including animated music videos, a live puppet show, and a fully developed tabletop RPG. But Wizard City is more than a project; it’s our vision of a world where creativity is celebrated and where artists, in all their weird and wonderful forms, can thrive. Brainstormed from over 20 years of Dungeons and Dragons and hundreds of games...

Inspired by the vibrant yet ever-changing spirit of Austin, Texas, Wizard City is a satirical parody of modern life. It’s a place where wizards, magical creatures, and performers explore their identities, fight for their dreams, and discover what it truly means to sing their “authentic song”—even when tangled in bureaucracy, self-doubt, and the gritty obstacles of a city on the edge of change. With comedic, often exaggerated nods to pop culture and society, Wizard City brings a humorous yet heartfelt look at the struggles and joys of the creative journey.

Our mission goes beyond creating art. We’re here to support and celebrate the local Austin scene—those musicians, artists, and makers who pour their souls into their craft, year after year. We understand the grind, and we’re here to amplify the voices of this community, helping each other along the way. Whether you’re a part of Wizard City as a fan, collaborator, or fellow creative, we invite you to join us in building a world where artists can spend their lives doing what they love. Here, the multiverse needs you—just as you are.

Our website has all the info. Unfortunately, Reddit has a stick up their but about us directly posting the link even though we are through google approved? LOL, big media censorship on the local guy...

The cost is $20 per seat, and payments can be made via Venmo, Cash App, or cash. (this is an experience please arrive a few minute prior, we encourage costumes, props and anything to immerse yourself within.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Best,

Nathaniel presumed Wizard

Hey all!

New to this rad place and excited to get a game going.

Where's the best place to meet fellow nerds? I'm located in north Austin and would love to have some drop in games. Any good ones around my area?

I'm open to pretty much any ttrpg's and would be open to hearing some peoples experience with drop in games around the area.

Thanks for the help all!

They host DnD games on Thursdays with not a lot of information on the site. Thinking of trying it out but wasn't sure.

Has anyone attended and be willing to share their experience?

Dungeons & Drafts is an open rpg night where we welcome new and experienced players, DMs, and the rpg-curious to come out and play. There are standing tables of d&d 5/5.5e and there have been sessions of Heart, Mörk Borg, Star Wars, Shadowdark, and Delta Green in the past. We meet at the tables by the JNL BBQ food truck at Buzz Mill - come out and roll some dice!

I run a welcoming one-shot table for those looking for a group. Join us to play Ten Candles. New players are encouraged to join! Character creation is quick and we'll do it at the table.

In the spirit of Halloween week, Ten Candles is an rpg designed for one-shot sessions of tragic horror. It is played by the light of ten tealights which act as a countdown timer and mechanic for the game. It is a "tragic horror" game rather than survival horror for one main reason: in Ten Candles there are no survivors. In the final scene of the game, when only one candle remains, all of the characters will die. In this, Ten Candles is not a game about "winning" or beating the monsters. Instead, it is a game about what happens in the dark and trying to survive within it.

You were on holiday at a cabin in the mountains; there's a nice lake out back and plenty of walking trails. It was a pleasant getaway from the pressures of work and life. Until ten days ago. Ten days ago the sun did not rise, and a few hours later, the stars winked out.

Through the radio's crackling static, you get what little information you can. Nobody knows what's happening. Five days ago chatter started up about "They who have come" - something monstrous that hunts in the dark. Maybe you've noticed tracks in the dirt, a shadow moving past the window, a crack of a branch – or maybe your mind has started playing tricks. All you know is, if there is something out there, they don't like the light, and they're hunting people down.

Now, the generator is spluttering, gasping for fuel, and your candles have burned low. Running short on food and spirit, it's probably time to head back down the mountain. It's a long road to town, but maybe the sheriff will have a better idea of what's going on.

Message me if you have any questions or want me to save you a seat at the table!

We are looking for DMs! Want to run your own game? Do you to bribe your players with drink tokens? If you are interested in running your own table, message me.

Hello!

I (30/m) just relocated to Smithville, I grew up in Elgin/Manor but have lived across the country the last ten years.

I've got extensive experience with Pathfinder and D&D 3.5 and I'm picking up 5th edition though the 2024 update is kinda throwing me for a loop.

I sat down at a table in Bastrop the other night at The Gaming Bunker (highly reccomended, the owners are super great guys) and had a blast which made me realize how much I miss Tabletop Gaming. I'm also an avid BG3 player though I've mostly played solo.

I'd love to find some folks from the Manor/Elgin/Bastrop area that want to get together once a week or so.

I'm also open to just making some friends in general! I'm divorced, sober and childless so my options for meeting other adults outside the work setting are somewhat limited. I enjoy tinkering, motorcycle camping, old movies, cooking/restaurants and weightlifting.

Thanks, hope to meet some of y'all soon!

Hey gang!

I've been working on new a campaign setting and I think I'm ready to start getting players together. We will be playing in Pflugerville every other week ether on Wednesday evenings or Sunday afternoons for about four hours a session depending on the groups schedules.

First session we will roll up characters together.

I will be running the game and a life long friend will be playing so I'm looking for two or three more people.

This is a mix of OSRIC AD&D 1st edition and house rules from the years I played back in the day.

You don't need anything but dice, pencil and paper everything else needed to play will be provided. No need for a laptop or computing device of any kind. We are shooting for a distraction free gaming experience.

If you have never played AD&D 1e before there are no feats, skills or abilities. Things like "optimal builds" really don't exist ether.

I don't do many dungeon crawls preferring overland and city adventuring.

There is risk, danger, and reward. Your choices matter. Your character could die.

Shoot me a DM with questions if you are interested!

I'm currently running a group through the 'Odyssey of yhe dragonlords' module, a non official ancient Greek campaign and one of our players to had quit.

We have three players but I like to keep it to 4 so we can keep reasonably playing if someone isn't there.

Right now the players are about level 5 and about a third of the eay through.

We're a pretty easygoing group, looking to have fun and arent strict RP'ers.

We usually play around Saturday at noon at Emerald Tavern off 183. Kind of weird hours I know but it works for us.

If you're interested send me message and wr can talk.

I am starting a Delta Green campaign Sunday. I'm Austin-based, but it's Theater of the Mind via Discord on alternate Sundays. at 6:30pm and usually runs to 9 or a little over.

I expect this to last 6-9 months, and am looking for 1-2 more players that can commit to that.

Hello! Like the title said I’m looking to join a dnd group for a long term campaign in the north Austin area!

My last campaign recently reached its final conclusion so I’m looking to get back on the saddle and ride again. I’ve tried the one shots at places like dragons lair but… they’re not for me. I miss playing in a big world with backstory and growth and all the jazz that comes with dnd and I’m hoping to find one again

With how my work schedule goes I’m looking to play on Monday, Wednesday or Thursday 6-7pm onwards! Hit me up in dms if your band of adventurers has space for me!

My son loves D&D. He has many of the books, creates his own campaigns, etc. The problem is he's having a hard time finding anyone to really play D&D with.

It's not a lack of friends, and he's even in his school's D&D club. But every time the club meets, it's about 90% kids goofing around and 10% actually playing. And even then his friends just say things like "I kill that guy" every time it's their turn. It's fine for having a good time hanging out with friends, but he really wants to play the game the way it's meant to be played.

Does anyone have advice for how to maybe branch outside of his school and find other kids roughly his age who'd want to play? I know this sub is more geared to adults, but I'm hoping someone here might know of something like that. We're in SW Austin but I wouldn't mind driving him a bit further out on a weekend if needed.

Neither he nor I want him playing with people outside his age group right now, so we're not looking for anything like that, even though I have no doubt there are plenty of nice people here who'd otherwise be willing to welcome him to their groups.

Afternoon all, my DND Campaign fell apart last night due to two players withdrawing from the long term campaign. I live in Georgetown but do not mind commuting to North Austin for games. Please PM me or reply here if you know of a game in need of players or are looking to start a campaign. Looking for something more long term so overall player mesh is important to me.

Looking for a CyberpunkRED group in the greater Austin area. I have 20 or so sessions under my belt but I'm not comfortable yet enough to GM.

I'm familiar enough with the cyberpunk world setting, the video game and seen the Netflix show, I've read the core book and most of the DLC.

Also familiar with cyberbunk in general. Read William Gibson's Neuromancer and his collection Burning Chrome, matrix, GITS, Snow Crash, snatcher on Sega CD, Policenauts on Sega Saturn. Mirrorshades and moths beating themselves to death against the neon...

If there's not a group, consider this a call out to all the cyberpunks in Austin out there fighting every day of their lives.

2nd UPDATE: oct 18 Thanks to everyone who showed interest. We've got a full group for now.

UPDATE: we've had way more people inquire about this than what I can realistically invite into the group. No invites have been sent out yet, as we're talking to many people to see who would be a good fit. Just wanted to avoid disappointing anyone who came later.

Yep, you read that right. The title said players, not group.

Here's the deal, a few of us North Austin people have decided to start a group so we're looking for a few more people. The plan is to play Pathfinder 2E, Abomination Vaults campaign.

When: Weekly, Wednesdays at 7:30pm. Sessions will last about 2 hours.

Where: Parmer/metric area primarily.If we end up rotating locations some, one of our alternatives in in Hutto.

I'm relatively inexperienced since the majority of my DM experience was with AD&D back in the 90s, and I have only really gotten back into TTRPGs within the past 2 years. But if your willing to put up with an inexperienced GM, and play pathfinder 2e, we may have a spot for you in the group.

And if you've never played pathfinder 2e before... also cool. The other players so far range from no experience to not much so we'll learn and make some mistakes together.

Hello all!!

I am a role player with 3+ years playing in 2e Pathfinder, 5e D&D, and various d6/d4/d100 systems. In addition to that, I have professional experience working in production design, creative writing, marketing, and sales. Currently, I am playing with a group that I love in South Austin, I was very lucky to have found them via this subreddit, and love playing with them :-)

However, they have no interest in playing in a more public, tailored, and produced capacity. While I don't have enough experience as a DM to feel confident doing so in a public capacity - I could definitely handle the pre and post-production of the podcast. I think a fun way to corner this market, and one that is starting to become more popular in other actual plays, is to do systems that aren't 2e or 5e.

If you are interested to see where this idea could go, especially if you are a DM who wants to break into professional DMing, please respond or message me directly!!!

Thank you for reading :-)

Howdy y'all! I'm looking for a group to play either D&D 5E or Pathfinder 2E. I've played 5E extensively, but havent played PF before, though I've wanted to try it as of late. I need a queer friendly group (I am trans and a lesbian), meeting in Round Rock/Cedar Park/Georgetown/Pflugerville/North Austin. If there are any groups looking for players, please don't hesitate to reach out!

Just moved to Austin (zilker area) and would love to play some D&D again. I've tried the organized drop-in style at a store before and it really isn't my thing, so I'm curious if more ordinary game circumstances arise through this kind of medium.

Looking for a group that has room for a player who hasn't played much in the past 20 years but wants to get back into table top RPGs. I'm looking for something in Hutto, Round Rock, Pflugerville areas. I've got some recent experience playing pathfinder 2e ( and I even DM'd the beginner box for a few people), but I'm happy to try out whatever.

Howdy all, got one session into a new campaign and lost a couple players, so I'm sitting at 3 of 5 slots filled for a homebrew campaign.

Table is not for the feint of heart, I'm known for heavy emotional moments and won't hesitate to have a monster attack a downed player if it makes sense in the situation (I will also have them surrender or run like hell if it makes sense in the situation).

If you're interested, shoot me a message and we can have a quick chat to see if we can get along. I'm aiming for a long campaign, and I hope you are too. 🙂

I’m looking for a local Austin DM who could lead a one shot 10/4 or 10/5 in person!

Hey! My partner (29F) and I (29M) just moved to Bastrop from Atlanta, GA. We’re warm, cheerful, inclusive folks, and we’re looking forward to meeting people in and around Bastrop!

I’ve played and DMed TTRPGs on and off for most of my life (started on D&D 3.5E in high school, ran some pathfinder 1E, some Powered by the Apocalypse systems, run mostly D&D 5E since), and I’d love to start or join a group here! I love role-play heavy campaigns with some humor, similar vibes to Not Another D&D Podcast, Dimension 20, and Critical Role. Every campaign I’ve played has been a blend of new and experienced players, so reach out even if you’ve never played before!

I hear Bastrop Beer Company is a good spot and it’s close to me, but I’m down to meet up anywhere with like minded folks and chat over a beer or coffee — just shoot me a message. I’d be happy to host if we get a group going — happy to DM or play, I enjoy either role!

As we’re new to the area, I’m casting a wide net to try to meet folks. I made posts for a few of my hobbies, shoot me a note if you think we might vibe or comment if you have recommendations for groups or events we should check out - thanks all!

Hey everyone, you might have seen me on here in the comments of a few other posts like this offering advice on how to find groups, but now I am the searcher haha.

I just moved from North Austin out to the Bee Caves area and want to find a consistent group to play with. Let me start off by saying I am pretty burnt out on DnD and have been actively trying out other systems.

I’d like to get a game going for either Forbidden Lands or Pirate Borg as I’ve never gotten to actually sit down and play them. Leaning towards Forbidden Lands for the exploration element but damn does the setting of Pirate Borg look appealing. I’m fine DMing for a bit to get back in the groove of it, was a forever DM who needed a break, but I’d like to see if I can ease back into it without overwhelming myself. We’ll see how that goes though. If anyone wants to try out systems outside DnD and you are in that area feel free to hit me up. I’m still unpacking so might be slow to respond. Also down to play some magic the gathering.

I'm a 23M, recently moved to North Austin, and I'm looking to expand my social circle. Do you all have any recommendations for places to go or events to check out? I've also been wanting to join a DnD group with people around my age, but I'm not quite sure where to start. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, I’m a 32 year old DM looking for a group in the South Austin area. I’ve DM'd long campaigns with friends before and am moving to Austin in early November, looking to make new friends and play D&D either as a DM for the group or I'd also be happy to be a PC. Whether you’re a group of friends who’ve been looking for a DM or if we want to build a group of strangers just let me know.

I would love to meet with potential players, preferably in person, just so we’re all comfortable with each other. My playstyle is usually very loosey-goosey with the rules being more like guidelines and applying rule-of-cool where possible. Homebrew blended in with actual lore and mixing storytelling, worldbuilding and RP with combat. I'm a huge fan of Critical Role so usually that's the style we end up playing.

I'm aiming at either running a 4-6 player game or being a player at a table with friendly people who want to have an awesome time and just hang out and make friends playing a game we love. Let me know if you think this is something you'd like to be a part of! :)

I’m 30m and have been living in Austin for a few years. I’ve always enjoyed RPG computer games, but I haven’t really gotten into TTRPGs yet. I thought now would be a great time to give it a try! I’m new to TTRPGs, so I’d appreciate finding a group that welcomes newcomers. I’m specifically looking for a group that meets on Wednesday or Thursday nights.

Dungeons & Drafts is an open rpg night where we welcome new and experienced players, DMs, and the rpg-curious to come out and play. There are standing tables of d&d 5.5e and there have been sessions of Heart, Mörk Borg, Star Wars, Shadowdark, and Delta Green in the past. We meet at the tables by the JNL BBQ food truck at Buzz Mill - come out and roll some dice!

I run a welcoming one-shot table for those looking for a group. Join us to play a starter adventure for the Mothership rpg - Another Bug Hunt. New players are encouraged to join and we'll be using pre-generated characters.

Mothership is a new sci-fi horror roleplaying game where you and your crew try to survive in the most inhospitable of environments: outer space. We'll be running through the starting adventure Another Bug Hunt:

The Greta Base Terraforming Colony has not made contact in six months. The Company has hired the crew to rendezvous with the colony commander and assist in repairing the situation.

Message me if you have any questions or want me to save you a seat at the table

It's wizard city time...jk It's the hole...

Deep within a forgotten temple outside of Wizard City, lies an entrance to an enigmatic realm where legends speak of an endless staircase leading to unimaginable treasures. But beware—the rumors tell of shadowy creatures that drag unlucky adventurers deeper into the dark abyss below, adding to the ill-gotten riches. Hidden from time and space, this eerie void is filled with creeping evils, waiting in the darkness to be uncovered only by those brave enough to shine a light. What horrors and challenges lie in wait?

No matter your mission, the Hole awaits your daring quest…

5.5 Edition - Wizard City Come prepared with a 1st level character, a 5.5e character sheet with stats filled, DND dice and a miniature

6pm for character creation 7pm for game play Our hole is Open today!!!

Hey all.

Starting a new in person D&D group for my 19 year old daughter and her friend. I will be DMing. Looking for two to four more players to round out the group.

About the Game: We will be starting with D&D 2024. I have lots of other games but this is where we will start out. I have the PHB and will likely get the D&D Beyond content as well. So that will be shared with all. Looking to play Sunday afternoons every other week or twice a month, though that may be negotiable. We also have a discord server we will use for coordination, etc.

Ideal gamers for this group: Likes both adventure and roleplaying. Any skill level. LGBT+ friendly (nonnegotiable). Able to acquire transportation to Leander for the game.

About us: We are a NW suburbs (Leander) based group. We are LGBT+ friendly group that wants a diverse group of players of all skill levels that are near my daughter’s age.

About me: 50 year old gamer dad. I work as a designer in video games, am a published TTRPG writer, and gamer for 40 years (yes I started real early).

About Game Safety: Game safety and group cohesion is important to us so the first few games will be a trial to make sure new players mesh with the group. These first few games we will also meet at some public space (gamestore or library or something) to make sure things are safe and friendly. Then we will likely move it to our house (more access to my minis, terrain, etc). Game safety rules (lines, veils, and x card) are always in play.

Thanks for reading, if this sounds of interest to you, please message me.
