VTT: Fantasy Grounds (DM has Ultimate license so players play free with Demo license)

Game: 5th Edition D&D, 2014 rules (Tasha's options allowed)

Day of Week: Monday Time: 8:00 PM - 11:00 PM EDT (UTC -4)

Frequency: Weekly Voice: Discord

Video: Discord (preferred, not required)

Streaming: No

Game Style: 75% roleplay, 25% combat

I would like to run Wild Beyond the Witchlight for a party of four players. If enough players are interested I will run a one-shot (TBD) for up to six players prior to the start of the campaign and invite players to the campaign based on our experience with the one-shot. We will be using the 2014 rules for 5th Edition D&D, but I am open to most non-homebrew character options. The game will be played in Fantasy Grounds - newbies are welcome! - but I am asking everyone to turn on their cameras during the sessions so that we can see one another while we are roleplaying. The game will not be streamed or saved.

My DM style is roleplay-oriented. I encourage players to create backstories with hooks and goals that will help me integrate them into the world of the campaign. There will be time for the players to roleplay among one another and with NPCs. I am looking for mature, adult players who will be enthusiastic about the story and actively participate in conversations with other characters.

That said, while Wild Beyond the Witchlight is known as a combat-light adventure, there WILL be combat, including combats that I have added into the campaign. So please don't build a full pacifist, or you will be sitting on the sidelines during the fights. If you are interested in joining the campaign, please DM me with a brief (no more than two paragraphs) pitch for a character you might play in the campaign. You are not committing to this character now; I just want to see your creative side. Your character should be an employee of a traveling carnival. How long have they worked there? What do they do? What might motivate them to leave?

At the westernmost end of the Chultan peninsula, in the southern part of the Trackless Sea, you find yourself obligated to fulfill a contract you were either tricked into or willingly agreed. Even when faced with the most wild or savage part of a forgotten land, decisions must always be made carefully. Even if it involves danger or deception, you may find your destiny—or doom—waiting at The Business End.

Hello! I'm looking for four or five players for my campaign, The Business End. The campaign takes place in the jungles of Chult, a dangerous territory awaiting discovery. However, there's a catch. This is a job, a contract, begging for completion. Your place in this contract asks of your skills and prowess to venture through these jungles in search of an object... or priceless artifact? An important person? You aren't entirely sure, but the contract and the business require whatever this thing is. You may be an adventurer aching to explore the vast jungles, possibly a mercenary looking to cash in, or a hopeless student tricked out of a scholarship... just know: the jungles aren't unforgiving, for they cannot even forgive.

Sessions will take place each Sunday starting at 6:30PM and ending at 10:30PM Eastern Standard Time, and the starting date is to be determined. This is my first time running an adventure in Faerûn, no less the Forgotten Realms, so please forgive me for any mistakes on a world basis. The adventure itself will be homebrew in "plot/storyline" purposes, as well as some creatures and characters, but I will do my best to make it feel like you're in Faerûn! The adventure will be no more than 12-15 sessions (around 3 months of play time). If after the adventure the group wishes to stick it for the long-run, then it'll go from a short adventure to a full-scale campaign! We will use Session 0 to go over group expectations and the usual, as well as a short introduction into the adventure, but character creation should be done before session. Please note that this is a higher-level campaign, so I am looking for more experienced players. You will start at level 8. Here is a document on all of the information you'll need before applying.

The Business End

Expectations

This is a list of what you can expect going into this campaign. Make sure to read all of these so that you're not applying for a campaign that does not align with your schedule, beliefs, and other things that may cause conflict at the table.

• Be mature, kind, and respectable. Do not be discriminatory in any way. I do not tolerate hatred or bigotry that is disguised as dark humor. I accept all kinds of people into my campaigns, like POC/LGBTQ+/Disabled/Etc., so do not be afraid to apply or to speak up when faced with people who treat you negatively.
• Please have a good microphone and be fluent in English. No one is perfect, but large language barriers can stunt play time and communication. Be ready to use Discord for voice communication, and you can use a webcam if you'd like (I do not own one). We be using Owlbear Rodeo as the Virtual Tabletop and we will also be using D&D Beyond for character sheets and dice rolling. If you're new to any of these, please look for tutorials on the internet. Please do not complain about any platform we will be using for whatever reason, but I am willing to answer any questions you may have. We will also be using Watch2gether for ambience and music, but that is optional.
• This campaign that will feature all kinds of socialization, combat, and exploration. Keep in mind that each session is different so some sessions can have more socialization than combat and exploration or vice versa. Every pillar of D&D is roleplayed differently.
• This campaign includes themes of violence, gore, religion, and more. There will never be dark themes that involve children, nor will there be anything sexual. There may be mention of certain things here and there, but I try my best to make sure that everyone at the table is comfortable. I'll always warn players that something dark is coming (such as a disgusting monster or people dying) unless the party wishes I keep everything secret.
• I will try my best to make roleplay engaging, which also requires you to engage. I want you to at least be somewhat confident and capable in roleplaying, but I'm not asking you to be an actor. There will be some serious and emotional moments, but that will not be the entirety of the campaign. Please try not to go "out of character" in these moments unless necessary. You do not have to act professionally, just be yourself. Everyone is here to have fun, so if you're not having fun, please do not ruin it for others and promptly talk to me. Not everyone will be perfect because mistakes do happen.
• You must be willing to interact with the Dungeon Master and players while in session. No contribution makes the game less fun for all. I ask that you attempt to interact, even just a little bit, outside of the game so that the party can try to get to know each other better over time. Be dedicated to the game. If you find that this group isn't for you, do not force yourself to stay, but I advise that you at least try for a while to get used to everyone. I've made the mistake of ghosting, and I know how it feels to be ghosted. Try to make most sessions as well, as continuous absence can cause problems for the campaign.
• Be willing to understand and comply with the (small) character limitations I have set in place as I feel that they make the most sense for my world. Do not be afraid to share any ideas you may have. I'm very flexible and try to make almost anything work as long as it makes sense. Also be willing to adapt to the homebrew mechanics and rules I have set.

For people who stick out to me I'll add you on Discord. I will ask to schedule a voice call so that we can go over all of the information in this post, any questions you may have, character concepts, and more. Don't think of it as an interview, but as a genuine chat! I'll get back to you after I've finished talking to all applicants to tell you whether or not you've made it into the campaign. Please do not pester me about making it in if I've added you on Discord and do not message me on Reddit about adding you on Discord.

These tend to get a lot of applicants so telling every single person that they didn't make it past the application process is hard so just know that you didn't make it if I don't reach out to you within 48 hours of applying. Thank you for reading; I hope to talk soon!

About me: I'm 30, have been playing DnD 5e for 10 years as both a player and a DM, and I'm a published author in the fantasy genre!

What I'm looking for: An online 5e medium-to-long-term campaign played weekly, biweekly, or a similar schedule.

My playstyle: I'm a team player and do my best to support every player getting their turn in the spotlight. I like to create characters that have interesting backgrounds that give the DM a hook to put into their story, if they desire. I enjoy roleplay, dungeon crawling, and getting immersed in the story of the game.

The best part of RPGs is working together to create a memorable story, so my favorite games are ones that have a strong narrative focus.

If I sound like a good fit for your game, leave a comment or send me a message! I'm happy to chat. I'm an active Roll20 user (with far too many hours... 5k+), but I'm open to learning other VTTs as well. I don't have a preference between 5e2014 and 5e2024.

Hi I’m Candy (21 M) I’ve had my fair share of Campaigns from both systems so I know the go around, and usually in those systems it’s always the asexual adventurers who save the day. I’ve been wanting to dabble in a bit of romance and nsfw innuendoes, fade to blacks are fine, but since this is nsfw preferably some imaginative or imagery of some nsfw scenes that could vary from A brothel, to Scream 4. I’ve got a lot of characters for whatever the dm prefers. Please dm on discord (candier1219) I’m willing to learn other systems besides the 2 listed. I won’t take this down till I find a group.

"Welcome to the Kingdom of Helen, where secrets lies at every corner and the supernatural lurks in the background. Well, that's at least what people say. You've only recently joined the mystery guild, but business has been surprisingly slow. In fact, the call you received earlier today about a "possessed monster" turned out to simply be a sick puppy. Great.

As you discuss potential mysteries to investigate with your team, a series of screams from the local cemetery disrupts your conversation. Well, it seems like you have another client! Unfortunately, it also seems like a she's being assaulted by a hoard of zombies. Will you be able to save her before it is too late? And what dark forces have awakened the dead?"

Hey, I'm running a one shot campaign this Friday at 7PM EST. As the introduction suggests, you'll be investigating why a hoard of undead has been reanimated. I plan on running the campaign on Roll20 and using Discord for voice. If you're interested, please read the house rules and fill out this survey.

I hope you all have a great day!

Hey everyone! My name is Allen, but some call me Al. We are a group of 5 players looking for a DM to run a long-term campaign set in a steampunk world. We prefer 5e as a system, but are open to others on a case by case basis. 

Our experience as players ranges from total newbie, to veterans with a decade or two of experience. We prefer an at least moderately experienced DM who is 21 or older, LGBTQ friendly, is open to homebrew (case by case), and is comfortable running sessions that are about 4 hours long. 

As far as setting goes, we are looking for a steampunk adventure, but that does not mean we won’t hear other interesting ideas. If you bring creativity, good plot hooks, and a bit of challenge to the table, we will respond with great character work, crafty solutions, and a party that’ll knock your socks clean off! 

To apply, please follow the link below and answer a few questions for us. If we think you’re a fitting candidate, you’ll get a discord friend request from me and we can set up an interview with the group! Please also comment below that you filled out the form.

Thank you, and we look forward to playing with you! 

Here’s the survey: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfAvBup_HUct4hmBGExCy5-TW8ZmepSY_Gz5ZpzT--8mXC6KA/viewform

Greetings, 35(m) looking to either start a TTRPG group or join an existing group near Baltimore (I live very close to BWI). I have 2 young kids and my wife works a lot so I'm basically stuck with Tuesday evenings (either weekly or biweekly). I'm new to TTRPGs but am willing to try just about any system (preferences would be Fate, Daggerheart, Pf2e, or 5e).

I'd be willing to try GM'ing if there is interest but nobody else wants to GM.

I know this is probably a long shot but if anyone is interested leave a comment or DM me.

Hey guys! My names Bennett and I’ve been super interested in playing D&d but never had the proper group to play with. I’m inexperienced though I understand the general mechanics of the game. Dm me if you have an open slot! Im free most weekends :))

Hey all, I'm looking to join a group on weekends. I really would like to get involved with an awesome story with some great rp! Message me if you have any questions about myself or your ideas on a game. Thank you!

Hello! I don’t know if I’m doing this right but I’ve been a silent dnd follower for a couple years. I also have a dope home brew gnoll character I’d love to finally use. I started by watching the dnd show with Matt Mercer, but I mainly listen to Dungeons and Daddies. I know their games arnt the usual dnd game and I’d be down for any type. I also don’t have a computer anymore so I know I can’t use some common platforms to play. I just really want to finally stick my toes in the water and play a campaign.

Hello! We recently posted on here looking for players, and are now searching for a DM to complete our party! We are a group of five (comprised of mostly shes, gays and theys) who are looking for a long-term DM willing to run a game with us some time around Thursdays after 6pm EST. We are all 21+ respectively so we’re keeping it to 21+. We really love to have fun with the game and really enjoy getting together and telling a story! We have no preference when it comes to setting or character as long as we have committed DM who is willing to take on this journey with us. If any of this sounds interesting to you, please feel free to fill out the form below and we’ll get back to you asap! Looking forward to meeting y'all!

https://forms.gle/fPDwc7ZoetD6awju8

The preferred date is on Sundays but any day of of the week aside from Saturday will work provided it's after 3:05 and I would prefer the DM be someone who lives in a times zone. Please provide a small summary of the plot of the campaign. Roll20 is the most fitting platform since I'm a broke teen who can't afford stuff on dnd beyond but I can make other platforms work. If any of this works for you feel free to comment.

Hey all, I'm at the final stages planing a new and exciting campaign that will start of with ..... (I haven't even revealed this to the group!) the group making enemies a bit to quickly.

We are a group of 3, ages 35 to 55, and looking for another player or two to join us.

The continent of Altheria is dangerous to all its inhabitants. Swarming with an entire selection of monsters, any life in this land is grim. And that was before the Demonic Invasion. Years ago, the denizens of the Lower Plane began to pour into Altheria en mass. Their goal seems to be the corruption of the Middle Plane, to claim the souls of mortals and turn the land into an eternal supply of sustenance. Since the start of the invasion, the mortal races have been at war, unified against the fiends. And now, the mortal armies have opened a portal to the Lower Plane. Storming through, they have attacked their enemies stronghold. You heroes have carved your way through the gates into the base to arrive at the final doors and prepare to engage with the leader of the demonic forces. However, not all is as it seems...

Welcome Adventurers!

I am a male in his upper-20s with previous GM experience, looking for 4-6 players for a new dark fantasy homebrew campaign I will be GMing soon. The campaign will be using the 2014 D&D 5E ruleset. It will be hosted on Discord using voice chat, largely employing a “theater of the mind” narration style. As a GM, I would describe myself as one that leans more towards “rule-of-cool” than “rules-lawyer”, but I do use the rules on some rulings. I would prefer players with a strong inclination to roleplay over combat, though combat will be present within the campaign. Please reach out to me through DMs if you are interested and I will be more than happy to discuss you joining!

I look forward to watching your journey unfold…

I've had limited experience with both 5e and PF2e, not much though. A small amount in actual campaigns and a bit from the video games that use at least some aspects. Would need to review rules and such and may need help with character creation a bit. I'm not a big talker in calls but I try. I'm familiar with Roll20 and such so whatever is used I should be good.

I'm available pretty much any time, not many consistent disruptions. Tuesdays 12-1 pm or so I have appointments weekly, and Wednesday afternoons I'm busy. Times in EST.

I have experience as a player, and DM, multiple years but no expert. Just hoping to join a game as a player and currently DM one. The days I'm available are Monday, Wednesday or Thursday. Other nights are not good. As long as we start at 8pm est or later I should be fine as I have kids that need me before then. If you got room let me know. Thanks!

Looking for: DM and Group D&D version: 5e 2024 Player's Handbook Rules Timezone: EST Game dates: Available Mondays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays from 4-9 PM EST Platform: Online (I have experience with Roll 20) Game description: Experienced player (4+ yrs) looking to find a group interested in exploring the 2024 Player's Handbook Rules. Preferably looking for a campaign that has a emphasis on combat, though a campaign where combat, role play, and exploration are balanced is great too! I am passionate about D&D combat and gameplay mechanics, and want to explore builds I have worked on from the new material.

I'm looking for an ST and other players for Vampire the Requiem 2e via asynchronous Discord PBP. I want to vamp it up, especially if I can use my rather modest [Tzimisce-as-bloodline homebrew](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1v6CyPxbxJZ-T5ms5-Pv2B-2bsugJPFxP4cAJ5f1TgXU/edit?usp=drivesdk) (it has Vicissitude as a handful of Devotions, and doesn't go crazy on the flesh-shaping). A classic "fledgelings clawing their way up" story would be pretty neat.

I'm good with a variety of locations, though I'd probably prefer no earlier than the beginning of the 20th century.

Hello all! I'm Remm, the DM for an upcoming Solarpunk Fantasy world using the Thirsty Sword Lesbians System. Please do your research into the basics of the system's genre before joining!
If you're interested, please comment below.

• We will be hosting this campaign on Discord and Roll20!
• We are looking for two players to add to a small pre-existing group!
• Combat/Roleplay split is around 35/65.
• Sessions happen on varying days of the week based on what works best for everyone, but will always happen at around 2:30pm EST!
• We are planning for this to be a shorter campaign, around 8-12 sessions, but it may or may not go longer
• Expect solarpunk and anti-capitalistic themes, on top of the overtly queer themes of the system!

The Old World

The old world was violent. Humanity warred endlessly for either resources or pride. Pride in ideals, pride in religion, pride in themselves. In time, humanity produced resources through science - but this meant that pride was all that mattered, and human life was just a disposable currency.

Before long, the only nations that existed were the 5 "prides". These were the prides of the Northern Wolf, the Eastern Dragon, the Western Eagle, the Central Tiger, and the Southern Elephant.

The Eagle, Dragon & Tiger started a war that would drain the world. They turned half of the world to dust in their fight, forming a scar across half the planet where no life may live...

The Wolf & Elephant, having both learnt from their complicated pasts, elected to never have such an event happen again. Together, they started fresh in a new world that they named Osiris. Its capital is Azolla, where our story takes place!

The Plot

The story itself focuses on a group of adventurers (that's the party) - detectives, city planners, cleaners, and those generally associated with the lower-level management and maitenance of Azolla!

These people are the first to discover a strange new revolutionary movement that seeks to sow chaos, discourse, and hierarchy into an otherwise truthful and beautiful city. They are tasked with taking this revolution down before it spreads!

Will you join this group of adventurers and save your city?

Hi all, I am simply a guy in his 30s looking for an online game to play bi-weekly. I am looking for any night Monday-Thursday from 8pm to 11pm CST. I could potentially do weekly depending on the night but that might be difficult.

My experience is primarily in 5e (2014 rules) but am open to learning other systems/editions. I am most drawn to a good mix of RP/Combat/Adventuring with a slight edge to RP. I have a couple of character concepts but am happy to play anything to fill in the gaps of a party. I love to meet new people of all types and think I am generally pretty easy to get along with. TTRPGs, to me, are an outlet for creativity and storytelling and a way to blow off steam, so primarily I want to have fun and share some laughs with everyone else at the virtual table.

If you have a game that you think I might fit in or have any more questions, please send me a message!

It had to happen eventually, Volo’s years of being a prolific scholar and middling wizard have caught up with him. You have been invited to the party of the year. It is truly to die for.

Volo's Guide To Getting Murdered is a one-shot murder mystery D&D adventure. I'm looking for 4-6 players to join me this Saturday as guests to Volo's launch party for his newest book release.

Hello,

I'm a 17 year old who's relatively new to DM-ing (i've DM-d 2 short campaigns and a couple of one-shots) who's looking to try online D&D. My style of DM-ing is very roleplay heavy and i sort most things out without consulting the rules (except during fights). I have a pretty detailed homebrew medieval heroic fantasy world called the Shimmering Isles and some other smaller world concepts, but i'm open to try DM-ing different settings, prewritten campaigns etc. I like to determine the game setting and general plot with the players anyway. My grasp on online D&D tools isn't great, but i believe i could get used to it pretty quickly. I'm okay with beginner players, as I've had them at my table every time i was DM and we always had fun.

If you're interested in playing, feel free to send a message!

Cheers!

Myself and my beat friend are looking to join a group of either current adventures or a game that's just starting. I'm a forever DM that's burnt out and my friend is a player that misses playing. He's a beginner, I'm not.

We are both 18+. Can use discord but r20 and VTT are alhqrser since he plays via phone. Both are used to dice bots. Weekend nights work best but we can try and make most nights work. Days will not work. Timezone Atlantic Canada.

Hey y'all, I have a decent amount of DND knowledge, discord, mic (cam if needed), and looking to join any kind of group. Available Mon-Sat after 5:15pm PST, all day Sunday.

Usually play a fighter or barbarian, but have experience in all roles and very flexible. Really enjoy high fantasy, role playing, and dungeoning.

Discord: FingerGunFighter

Clips of me streaming from years ago on twitch, same username.

I am trying to find a 5.5E game idk why but it seems to be so hard to find, if anyone has a game I would love to join I am an experienced player with over 20+ yrs of playing and Dming.

Hi, Name's Skull.

I have been a Dungeon master for 5e for years now and I'm itching to be a player again. However I am interested in a homebrew campaign. Not a lot, just some small revisions on weaker subclasses.

I enjoy all aspects of the game, wether its roleplay, combat, exploeation and etc.

Due to me living in GMT+3, my schedule is not easy to write down here. But I can quickly calculate wether or not I can make it to a game.

Look forward to hearing from you guys

Hello there, I'm Tre/Kai, I've never played a TTRPG before but I've been hooked on the idea of collaborative storytelling through Dungeons & Dragons. I'm pretty confident in the basics and how to play, but most of my gameplay knowledge is from listening/watching Critical Role and fiddling around in D&DBeyond. I know that the options for online play are pretty varied, but I'm down to learn the system if it means I get to play!

I'm looking for a high fantasy setting, but totally okay with interesting technology or rudimentary modern technology. I don't care much for modules; I want to learn about an entirely new world and contribute to it to some degree, so the more sandbox-y and flexibility for character creation the better! Ideally would also have a balance between roleplay, social interactions, and combat, but if there's a lean into one over the others that's fine too.

Not really sure why I'd have to state this but being LGBTQ+ friendly is a MUST. Let's keep outside politics and stuff out the game as well. I'd prefer all members be 18+ as well. I'm looking to play anytime on Thursdays and Fridays since I'm off those days, no real preference for session lengths as long as there's opportunities for breaks if they go for longer. I can play pretty much any other day of the week but preferably earlier in the day as I work nights.

If you've read this far, I might as well tell you a little more about me: I'm 23 he/they, I also write, with a lot of my recent writings being about transforming my favorite pre-existing worlds into TTRPG settings. (I'm working on a Pokemon campaign right now) Anywho, if you're looking for a player for your campaign that fits any of these prerequisites, feel free to reach out to me via private DM or through discord: isekai_akai

So I am looking for a campaign to join that is running on Tuesdays night. I am used to dnd 5e but I am willing to learn new systems dm if you have a open spot

(Like my 3rd time trying to post this)

Hi everybody! I'm an 18+ DM looking for some people to join my Vecna: Eve of Ruin campaign.

If you don't know, Vecna: Eve of Ruin starts at level 10, and goes to level 20, and heavily involves the multiverse.

I'm looking for people who are at least somewhat familiar with the Forgotten Realms and DND in general.

If you're interested please fill out this form
