Description

Hello everyone! We are looking for 2 more players to try out the game "Vaesen" by Nils Hintze (Free League Publishing). Log in to view Most of us will be playing it for the first time so no worries if you are not familiar with the game or system. I am organising this campaign in a discord server. It will be played via a mix of voice calls and slower "play by post" via chat whenever players are unavailable.  The timezone for most players is UTC +1/2 (Western Europe). Sessions will likely be organised during weekend afternoons/evenings or Wednesdays and Thursdays after 18:30 CET if scheduling allows. What we are looking for:
  • Players that are ok with typing out and reading longer paragraphs of text. As some of the game will be played "by post" it is preferable for players to write longer messages and contribute to the worldbuilding and the story.
  • 18+. No NSFW is intended but all of us are in our mid to late 20s
  • Bonus points if you have played this game, or a game with the Year Zero Engine before.
If you would like to join us, please write a few sentences saying why you are interested in the game/setting and how you fit the criteria above.

The mists have chosen you. Will you be the one to finally break the curse of Barovia and bring the sun back? TL;DR: - System: D&D 5e - Schedule: Mondays, 19:15 CET weekly. - Session length: 3 to 3.5 hours. - Format: Long-term campaign, so I'm looking for players who want to stay. - Platforms: Foundry (maps and tokens), D&D Beyond (characters), Discord (voice).  - Age: 18+. This isn't because of NSFW content. I just prefer running games for adults. - Price:$20 USD per player, per session ( your 1st session will be at 50% off). I'm looking for 2 more adventurers to join a long-term D&D 5e campaign through Barovia. Fold horrible schemes, make deals and take down the ultimate lord of Barovia. Session 1 is at 50% so you can try the group without commiting. The campaign is already underway with the party is at level 5. Although the level is somewhat progressed, the story is way before the midway point.  Link to the game https://startplaying.games/adventure/cmroocd1d00sjjo04ouwp1juw?referralCode=AELWX8PE

Combat focused
Fights, tactics and initiative take up most of the table time.
Welcome to the Somnium Shard. A sundered paradise; knowledge, gods and power's all known throughout the land, its history coveted by lost tomes, cosmic knowledge and crazed minds. With earliest carvings detailing a different world that may have been the Shard's muse, the inspiration for reality. However not all could be replaced, and the world's panorama was in its own natural discourse, with the residents at home. With that overly grand intro done welcome to my personal world, a multi-year labour of love that I'm still working on with every session, a sandbox type world for players to discover, learn about and influence as they desire. Designed as an open campaign for players to fit into as they wish, follow the threads of their backstory, or start a questline that leads to them swearing loyalty to a kingdom. Whatever it is you feel you want to do in a fantasy world I'll accommodate it as well as I can. However do not think that this means everything is free, the Somnium Shard is still a living and breathing world, thievery, murder and the sort will have consequences, as will trying to steal that magical artifact. You'll have to contend with mages scrying on you, rangers tracking you and bounty hunters after you if you upset the wrong people. So come and join the adventure, see where your characters can take you, how they can evolve and develop in this world with a DM that can handle whatever you feel like throwing at him.
