Description

System: A complex, crunchy custom-made Hunter × Hunter TTRPG (not 5e-based) currently in development. Its goal is to portray the experience of being a Nen user and living in the Hunter × Hunter world as faithfully as possible, both narratively and mechanically. Platform: Discord Availability: I am available most days. Playtesting will consist of one-shots, short campaigns, and in-between-session RP depending on player activity and availability. As development progresses, I'll periodically run new tests whenever major mechanics are updated. Foundation: Everyone knows that the real spectacle of Heaven's Arena begins on the 200th floor, where only those who have overcome the infamous "200th Floor Barrier" may compete. This game follows an unusual generation of fighters who all reach the 200s within the same span of time, drawing the attention of spectators, sponsors, Hunters, recruiters, criminals, and countless others eager to see which rising stars will leave their mark on the tower. About the System: I started this project because I could never find a Hunter × Hunter adaptation that focused on what I actually love about the series. Most attempts reduce it to simplified Nen powers and combat. While combat is important, Hunter × Hunter is also about investigation, deduction, negotiation, manipulation, preparation, risk assessment, and understanding both your allies and your enemies. Even fights are often contests of information where both sides are testing theories, hiding weaknesses, and trying to understand one another before committing to decisive action. The system uses d10 dice pools with Difficulties and Success Thresholds, point-buy character creation, and experience-based progression. Nen is being designed around personal expression, restrictions, conditions, and the influence of a character's convictions and emotions. Most mechanics are intended to reward planning, creativity, and intelligent use of available information. Combat is dangerous, and because of that, every advantage matters. The current focus is testing the fundamentals of direct conflict and seeing what works, what doesn't, and what feels right. If you enjoy dissecting mechanics, discussing design decisions, finding edge cases, and helping shape a system while it's still being built, I'd love to have you. Readers of the later manga arcs are especially welcome, as they've heavily influenced the project's design philosophy. Feel free to respond if any of this sounds interesting!

Throne of Solaris

Conversation, character and story take up most of the table time.
The Throne of Solaris The golden spires of Hellios still catch the morning light, just as they have for a thousand years. The Sun Banner still flies above the Imperial Palace. The hymns of the Church of the Sun still rise from a hundred temples. Outwardly, the heart of the Solarian Empire beats as it always has. But the Sun-Blood no longer sits the throne. Emperor Aurelius, last living descendant of the Sun God in the direct line, lies silent in the Solar Chamber. Physicians, priests, and arcanists have come and gone. None can wake him. None can even name the strange lethargy that holds him. Until he recovers—or until the bloodline is secured—the empire cannot rule itself. The Imperial Council has therefore invoked the ancient right of Regency. Five names now stand before the empty throne, each backed by power, gold, steel, or faith: Edward, Duke of Gryphon — Master of the Merchants’ Guild and Head of the Librarium. Leontis, Viscount of Neolum — Son of the Archon and Grand Crusader of the Church of the Sun. Septimus, Prince of the Capital District — Captain of the Royal Guard. Stephan, Archduke of Ironheim — Master of the Forges and champion of the common folk. Zadakiel, Marquess of Fellgahv — Head Justiciary and Grand Master of the Order of the Black Wing Knights. Each claims the right to speak for the sleeping Emperor. Each has allies who would see their candidate elevated—and rivals who would see them fall. The court is a web of whispered deals, old grudges, and carefully measured smiles. Blood has not yet been spilled in the marble halls… but the air is thick with the promise of it. You are not the great lords. You are the ones who move between them: investigators, diplomats, agents, and observers with the skill—and the opportunity—to learn what others will not say aloud. The Council will not appoint a Regent in ignorance. Someone must cut through the intrigue, expose the truth behind each claim, and guide the choice toward stability rather than civil war. The sun still rises over Hellios. How long it continues to shine may depend on what you uncover in the shadows of its court.

Howdy hi!! Shut-in world builder wizard here, just looking for cool people to bring to me and friends' online table for a bespoke variation of 3.5e D&D that focuses less on min-maxing/power-scaling and more on curiosity of the player, experimentation and a whole new toy box of fresh mechanics to dive into! Some of those mechanics share DNA with 5-5.5e concepts and might be familiar to players coming in from the most recent editions, and others have been forged from the mad scientist lab sessions of me and mine over several campaigns! We've got weird new races--psychic plant people, immortal deer fey, juggernaught dwarf-orc hybrids, sentient amnesiac undead, need I go on?! We've got intriguing reworks on old classics-- broad new specialization AND generalization options for casters, exciting new martial feats for bruisers of all types, and much needed re-balances for the discrepancies between Druid and Ranger! We've got an in-house, homemade character sheet template made in Microsoft Excel that tracks your bonuses, debuffs, gear weight, weapon rolls and all your stats in real time! We've got an entirely homebrewed, simple to understand, elemental damage counter system with a table of effects that completely turns the nature of how players and enemies utilize different damage types on its head! All this, and a chill, low-stress, inclusive table of nerds too! Sound good? Then give the profile a poke, and come see if your new favorite homebrewed TTRPG system will be ours! =)

I'm looking for a DM who takes requests or is looking to learn by using an existing homebrew world for a group with six players. I have a game world already mostly put together that I used as a DM but would like to take from the player's side in this instance, the game is an amalgam of various existing nerd culture franchises such as Star Wars, Marvel, DC and anime where the characters and lore exist simultaneously and always have which create a unique setting rich with possibilities for the players to adventure and explore. We live in the Pacific Northwest but having an online DM who lives elsewhere but connects online is totally welcome, looking forward to hearing from you and having fun with you soon! Please DM me if you want more details.
