[Online] [DCC] [time and date flexible] The Road T
I’m looking for players for a Dungeon Crawl Classics campaign called The Road Tithe.
This is an 8-session dark fantasy campaign about a missing shipment, a buried conspiracy, a hidden underground city, and a race to stop a second genocide before thousands of people are wiped out.
The campaign starts with a straightforward road escort job between Thornwall and Greyfen. Then the ground opens beneath you.
Half the party is taken below the road into *, a secret civilization descended from people the crown tried to * 150 years ago. The other half is left on the surface with a * wagon, scattered clues, and the growing realization that the * are part of something much larger. Both sides investigate from above and below until the truth comes into focus: *, a plan to * and erase the * good.
What to expect:
System: Dungeon Crawl Classics
Platform: *
Voice: *
Length: 8 sessions, around 3 hours each
Tone: dark fantasy, tense, grounded, human
Open seats: 5
VTT approach: mods that add flavor and fun, not unnecessary complexity
My DM style breaks down roughly like this:
Combat: 25%
Achievements/progression: 20%
Character development: 15%
Plot: 15%
Tactics: 10%
Social puzzles: 10%
Technology learning curve: 5%
This game is a good fit if you enjoy investigation, meaningful choices, tactical combat, character growth, and a serious story with room for desperate heroics.
A note on structure: the party does split early, but that’s intentional and central to the campaign. Both groups stay active, both matter, and both uncover different pieces of the truth.
Looking for players who:
Can show up consistently
Enjoy engaging with the world and the other PCs
Are good with a more serious story
Want a flavorful DCC game without extra mechanical bloat
