Description

Goldamere is simple, it's easy to understand; it's farms, it's wheat, it's barley. It's a one-night stop at an inn, on a long, slow, ponderous, winding journey through interminable fields of crops. Nothing lurks under the surface of this idyllic town. It's just fields and windmills and ruined ancient shrines.  Oh, and the dead have started coming back to life.  Maybe there's more to Goldamere than meets the eye. Why are the dead of this sleepy farming town coming back to life and wandering off? Why did skeletons in ancient military regalia attack and drag off the town priest, Father Hadigal? Why don't the fields here ever need fertilising? What secrets do these ancient shrines hold? WHERE has Filcher, the town pseudo-dragon got to?  The people of Goldamere are farmers. They know wheat and barley, and making bread and beer, not green-eyed skeletons and dead people coming back to life. They're scared and bewildered, and what they really need is some help. If there ever were a time for someone to step up and make something of themselves... well, this would be it. Welcome to the Wode Marches! It's a swampy, thickly forest region, filled with small fiefdoms, ruinous keeps, ancient shrines and down-trodden, but welcoming folk that could really use a break. The plan for this campaign is to do an adventure in the sleepy farming town of Goldamere, suddenly beset by a supernatural undead menace, to get everyone used to the rules and each other, and get a few levels under our belts. Then we'll use the Wode Marches region as a semi-sandbox style game, where the characters can explore and push back against the bad guys who are pursuing their own agendas. When: Weekly on Wednesdays, 7.30pm-10.30pm GMT, starting 8th April with Session Zero.  Where: Discord and Owlbear Rodeo. Voice required, camera optional. Lines & Veils for safety tools.  Who: Any 3-5 players who are over 21. New players, old players, any sort of identity, including LGBTQ+... all are welcome. It would be great to have a mix of folks, but I'll fill slots first come, first served.  System: Nimble - A fast, tactical hack of 5e. Check out the Log in to view, for a vibe check. Just the core rules at first - no homebrew/add-ons, yet.  Tone: Dramatic, heroic, with a splash of humour or darkness. Mostly Skyrim, with moments that are Fable. High fantasy, magical medieval world, with no artificers/magic-as-technology. How: Please send me a message with:
  • Your name/what you want to be called, and your pronouns, how old you are.
  • How often you could make the session (every week, every 2 weeks etc).
  • Your TTRPG experience thus far, or if you're new, what made you want to start playing.
From there we'll probably have a bit of chat, and I'll slot people into a list of players. If I can get a core of 3-4 folks together every week, I don't mind having one or two other players that only show up every other week, or once a month or whatever, so don't be discouraged if you can't make every week. About Me: Hey, I'm Sam (he/him, they/them). I've been playing D&D and other TTRPGs a long time, and I've got lots of player and GM experience. I like to weave roleplaying into all of the play, and I like fast-to-run games with dynamic combat. I'm aiming about 50/50 roleplaying to combat. I love building settings, but especially with lots of player buy in - I want to incorporate ideas that arise naturally from play or your backstories into the world, and really make it out own. I like to ask players to contribute to the world during play, too. Any questions or comments, just send me a message, and I'll do my best to answer.

Hey, I'm Sam. I've been playing TTRPGs for about 25 years, including a variety of games, but especially D&D. I've got lots of experience as a GM and as a player. I like immersive worlds, sharing the world building and dynamic combat.

Monday - Thursday    A group decides on day & time Most people will probably play between 16:00 – 21:00 (GMT+0) It'll be played in a Discord voice chat "Theatre of the Mind" playstyle (means no VTT) Discord (weebseatshit) *PREMISE* You are dragged into a dangerous encounter together with other unlucky ones. Now you are bonded whether you want it or not. Since you are a witness, some people want you dead, watch your back(s) & trust no one It's an RP-focused, Forgotten Realms based homebrew campaign, with an emphasis on story & adventures Ratio: 60 Roleplay/30 Exploration/10 Combat Starting level is 1, Point Buy, Milestone leveling Spells become cantrips, a player can cast them without components or GP Cooldown of spells depends from their power level & the DM's will, but if a player is gonna spam spells, i'll Elfen Lied him or put some shit like Leo Bonhart from Witcher  Some spells that affect game's balance & world, may be forbidden. It'll be discussed HP are cinematic. Depending from how much & what kind of damage a character receives, i'll adjust his condition Only these races are allowed: Human, Elf (Moon, Wood), Dwarf, Goliath, Tiefling (Purple, Pink, Blue), Tystling (a human with cat ears (& eyes)) Artificer & Psion aren't allowed I'll describe locations & looks with little to no detail Just like with the books, i'd prefer that every player imagined their own stuff (& because there may be an info that player may not get or just ignore) About forbidden spells As an example, this is only level 1 Wizard, but i hope you get an idea Mending Charm Person Detect Magic Detect Poison and Disease Friends Unseen Servant Tasha's Hideous Laughter Sudden Awakening Sleep Sense Emotion Puppet Identify Id Insinuation Healing Elixir Disguise Self Comprehend Languages Cause Fear Ressurection & lethal spells Instead of using ability checks or in-game tools (acquiring unique items, talking to people, searching for clues, improvise), a player casts a spell that speedruns a campaign But a player can prepare all other spells A tystling is similar to a cat Monochrome darkvision Enhanced senses: smell, hearing, vision, touch & balance (+3 Dexterity, Perception, Acrobatics) Soft step: walking is almost noiseless (unless a tystling has something noisy on), running is slightly quieter comparing to other races (+4 Stealth) A tystling is shorter than an elf, but taller than a dwarf A tystling is slim like an elf, but lighter than an elf, with smaller muscles. That makes a tystling even more agile & dexterous than an elf, but it's very hard for a tystling to lift or carry medium heavy things (8 AC, -5 Strength, Athletics)

TCR is D&D 5e with re-balances to make it more fair and fun. we operate like an MMO, you simply create your character then you can sign up to join any quest. you keep all loot and level up after each quest. You can have multiple characters if you want to try different set up out. We have 13 classes with a total of 170+ subclasses. We have re-worked the races and plan to add more as we go. if we dont have something that your looking for let us know :D We use discord for voice and Foundry VTT for battle maps, rules and character creation. The VTT is heavily modified to be easier to use and more automated so you can focus more on the combat and roleplaying rather than finding stuff in a clustered system. We have a group of active GM's throwing out quests on a weekly basis. Alot of these quests are also part of a larger quest series that lets you delve into more lore and investigations. Contact me if you wish to know more or join our discord! https://discord.gg/yGRMnh8cXg

Erdoros: The Cosmfall

Conversation, character and story take up most of the table time.
Hello everyone and welcome to the Cosmfall campaign! We are starting up a short-to-medium length campaign set in the very distant past of our main campaign world, Erdoros, during the events that would come be known in history as the "Cosmfall", when the very stars in the sky began raining down upon the world and the young races that walked its earth, these falling stars bringing with them an alien race that would change the nature of the world forever: Dragonkind. Campaign Introduction "In a time before recorded history, when the curmudgeonly Dwarves had only just begun to settle the Deep Places, and the Elves venturing from their Enchanted Hinterland home of Thala'drahel, and the younger races across the continents had only begun to settle from their nomadic ways, the very stars fell from the sky." Witness our world, Erdoros, before the advent of Magic. Druidism, shamanism and other forms of magic attuned to the natural world are permissible, but incredibly rare. Cling to ancient deities and beliefs fueled by faith and sacrifice, desperate to unlock eldritch powers you cannot comprehend to gain an upper hand in a world put to the flame. The world is young, and all races are at early stages in cultural & technological development and generally isolated from one another. - Wizard, Warlock and Seraph are not playable, but may you rise to become one of the first in history? - Sorcerer is only playable by Elf (known as Dreamweavers) or Dwarf (known as Runespeakers) ancestry. - Clank, Drakona, Infernis and Fungril are not playable. At Session Zero, choose your own path: band together with the other mortal races of this world against the arrival of the destructive and tyrannical Dragons, or betray your own kind to bask in the glory of their new world. The limitations presented here are not to "limit" your choices as a player, but to drive home and best represent the primal world you will be stepping into. Overview - Bi-weekly sessions on every other Wednesday from 20.00 to 00.00 GMT+1. - Our main D&D 5E campaign is currently on hiatus, and we have plans to play this and other shorter-form campaigns in the future to see if you as a new player vibe well with us across different settings & tones before getting locked back into the main campaign. - We are first-timers to Daggerheart, but long-term TTRPG players. We accept & welcome any experience level at our table however! The campaign will start at level 2 and will end at levels 7-8. - We are a group of 3 Players + 1 DM (Me) looking to add a further 2 to our Party. We play from across Europe and are mainly looking for people in the same timezone as us. - We use Foundry VTT hosted on a Forge cloud server, Discord for Voice & Video chat during session. For our games, webcams are mandatory as it is a preference for us to alleviate and improve the roleplay and immersion into the game itself. What We Offer: - A living, breathing world that evolves with (or without) the players' direct interaction. Just as the players have their own goals and ambitions, so too do the other inhabitants of this world. - Serious & realistic roleplay-focused narrative with moments of levity. Ranging from grimdark to lighter tones, all within a swords & sandals setting. The world of Cosmfall is a world before civilization and before diplomacy: many races bear old grudges, and some are as alien to each other as the Dragons themselves. - Consistently scheduled games, planned out with time, care and effort to deliver an entertaining and engaging experience, with heavy attention to detail to narrative elements. A free-form setting open to the collaborative input of all players with the ability to introduce your own ideas, story beats and elements if they mesh well with the overall narrative, with a Game / Dungeon Master who will work WITH you to make a character we both want to fit in the world. - A tailor-made game experience for each player, with intricate and unique encounters, fully fleshed-out boss fights, unique & powerful magic items, rewards and much more. Each person at the table has their own moment to shine, no matter how small! What We Are Looking For: - Laid-back and relaxed individuals over the age of 21 (our age range is from 24-34) who want to sit around and roll virtual dice together and weave a fantastical story that we will be talking about for years to come! - Accommodating, patient and understanding team players who look to raise each other up, cooperate and collaborate to enjoy the game together. Enthusiasm and curiosity are crucial! - Dedicated roleplayers who place emphasis, detail and care into the motivations, background and personality of their character: each player character should be an individual first, a party member close second. - Consistency and dedication to a weekly / bi-weekly schedule. We have a pretty solid track record of being able to run weekly, and during this campaign we are slowing down to bi-weekly for now. A missed session here and there is totally fine and understandable, but we all want to play together with a full party. We hope this has covered all the bases and given you a good idea of what we are all about, whilst it may seem high-octane, we are very much welcome to beginners, veterans and anything in-between, so don't be shy to put your hat in the ring if you think you'd have fun at our table, and you'd be a good addition to our party! To help us find the perfect candidates, we'd like to kindly ask you to fill out our quick application form answering a few of our burning questions to let us know what kind of game YOU'D want, and what kind of player YOU are, before we can move onto the next step. We very much look forward to hearing from you all and hope to see you in Erdoros with us very soon: https://forms.gle/i6mqghDaidmeqer48
