Description

I am looking to run a 3-4 hour session. This will be played out of foundry VTT. All experience levels welcome. I'm in my 30s so I prefer players that are at least 20+ The start time is 9:30 AM PDT (16:30 UTC) on TUESDAY - This will start as a one-shot and level 3 characters and if all goes well will be a full campaign. - SETTING The setting is in the middle of a sand desert. Many oasis outline the area and these are heavily protected. You and the rest of your group come from one of these Oasis locations or a surrounding village. That place that you come from doesn't exist anymore because a nomadic tribe had come in and destroyed your home. They said you are a Zero now and you should be grateful that this honor was bestowed upon you, "you're part of the greater woven path." They chained you amongst a hundred others who are now pulling the front of their caravan. This caravan is built from many smaller metal carts chained and bolted together which create this larger vessel. You all pull this giant metal cart amalgamation together and have been for the past several weeks. You hear jingling amongst the cart. From the various noises and conversations you hear you could tell each cart is filled with various trinkets, resting areas, armories, treasures, and the aroma of food. That aroma you’ve been smelling everyday is not the same aroma that is fed to you by the end of the day. It is the left over slop all piled together that fills you up. It’s a luxury given to you compared to the back of the herd who pulls the caravan and who are more likely than not living corpses, they don’t eat. Eventually you presume that will be you, but luckily that isn’t you now. For the short lives you’ve known in this tribe, you’ve never heard of anyone being demoted to a Zero. That is until today. A man dressed in white silk clothes is lashed, stripped of his adornments, and chained next to you. It doesn’t seem to bother him at all really, the only noise he commits to are words he mutters as his judges fix the riggings, “Aasteri will be displeased to what you are doing today.” - either dm or reply below the following info. If you get ahold of me on discord let me know your groupfinder username so I can easily know if I've talked to you on this site >>> discord: junka111 Name/Nickname: Age: Experience: Basic character idea: (Name, Age, Race, Class (Subclass if you already know), background, personality) Feel free to link a photo if you like. What part of your character in this setting sounds fun to you?: Anything extra you wanna share:

Blood Sun

Homebrew
House rules, a custom setting, or a system the Game Master wrote themselves.
Roleplay focused
Conversation, character and story take up most of the table time.
Everyone is welcome to the blood sun guild. Here we are beginning to have one shots, potentially campaigns, and we hope to also be a community where everyone can be friends. In the blood sun we have one shots based of the lore of the blood sun religion (rp). Missions can vary from defending towns from enemies to going against strongest enemies in the history of blood sun. This isn’t just normal stuff where you would be playing a normal character while these enemies are stronger and get more and better abilities, the blood sun members who participate in the one shots get Homebrew blood magic, abilities, and features. For everyone you can ask me for 1-2 unique abilities your character only would have. As for the campaigns I mentioned those would be longer missions (round 2-5 sessions or a bit more) or can be alternate realities of the blood sun like one I am currently running where it is weaker than ever. For the Homebrew magic and stuff I plan on using this website called Nemesiscodex where I can directly import the Homebrew stuff. PLEASE DM ME ON DISCORD I DONT CHECK HERE

-Hello, I'm Demon. the short to this is, I have made this post to find anyone that wishes to play D&D, the number of players seen is how many peaple are in the dicord group. - we currently have me and 2 others player, and a number of other that wanted to check out the Discord -the schedule is Saturdays after 7:30pm CDT Bi-weekly at the moment.  -I figured if we can get 5 people (me included), and each of us take turns doing one shots, until we figure out who we want as a DM. I'll be doing the first one at least. and maybe we all can take turns DMing the campain if we like that Idea.  -This would let new players figure out, a bit more of the game. if I get more experienced players that's fine, I only wish that you do not call out the newer player for things they do not know, Me included. I can't say I'm new, nor can I say I'm experienced. I know some things but can't juggle the DM part of things vary well, so I would like to be a player, or play with other players who are new and are willing to learn to play with me. -this is a way to help connect other players with other players, and allow other players to see what DM's have to do as well as enjoy learning and making mistakes, after all we all make them, and the rule books are just a guide to play, we can easly make up are own rules as a group, as long as every one is ok with the rules, but we should stick close to the rule of the book so things don't get to overpowered.  -I would prefer 18+ group, however I understand new players may not be, there for I will exept any age at this time. -I may be willing to Draw art for the members, but I only ask if you want it please be patient with me, I'm not a fast drawer. I can also do Ai art if you want, but I think hand drawn art is more unique.

"Year 0" Prequel One-Shot BARD-ONLY (BYOI)

Homebrew
House rules, a custom setting, or a system the Game Master wrote themselves.
LGBTQ+ friendly
The table is openly welcoming to LGBTQ+ players.
Hello hello! I am Matthew. I am a new DM building a homebrew world, and I want your help filling in its history. Before my main campaign begins, I am running a series of one-shots set in "Year 0". This is when an apocalyptic cataclysm nearly ends the world. The future campaign will be set centuries afterward. This post is for a specific prequel one-shot for a party of four bards. AND you as the player ideally have an instrument to RP with and maybe play poorly. When? I run my business from home and have a family, so M-F during the day works best. These one-shots will take place Tuesday through Thursday, between 9:00am and 2:00pm Central time (chicago area). If you work from home, work nights, or live in a time zone where this is your evening, this table is for you! What is it? You will play level 6 bards surviving the chaos of a larger conflict. You may be "just" bards, but together you can make a real difference in this harried, crumbling world. All of this happens under the shadow of the First King, whose mysterious sacrifice during this era saves the realm but curses his bloodline forever. Legacy? Yup If you survive, I have a "Fortune & Fate" roll planned to help determine your character's epilogue. Though you will have plenty of creative control over their outcomes. My particular hope with this one-shot is to establish a few bards as local heroes of sorts. And in the epilogue and leading into the future campaign, these bards and their instruments will be cherished.
