DM looking for players

I’m completely new to Pf2e, and newish to GMing. I’m looking for a group of 4 beginner players to run the new beginner set, Secrets of the Unlit Star. The adventure may also continue past the beginner adventure if things are going well. Looking to play in the evenings on Saturday or Sunday, EST time zone.

EXPERTS BROUGHT IN! UNFORESEEN CIRCUMSTANCES LEAD TO THE REOPENING OF THE MISSING CASE!

1922 - New York, USA

Oct 13th - Former Detective Robert Scarrow, current chief of the 21st precinct, has set the cold case back into motion! Suspecting the unnatural at play…

A worker was found dead in the Manhattan club during a surprise performance by Florine Kline just last month. An eerie misfortune by all means, dismissed only within a few days due to a staggering lack of evidence. Maxine Loretta is still in possession of the authorities, as brand new of experts and likely suspects are brought in for questioning…

Themes we have...

A large majority of supernatural literature is canon in this world (Frankenstein, The Picture of Dorian Gray, Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde...)

- Supernatural

- Horror

- Occultism

- Social Satire

The party

The central theme is mystery. So archetypal characters that embody the era would be appreciated: the detective, the femme fatale, the doctor, Etc...

Requirements:

- Decent mic

- The majority of us are 18-22, so we prefer someone in this age range as well.

- Someone comfortable with roleplaying; the campaign will be heavily story-driven, so that would help.

- The setting will be 1920s America, so general knowledge about the era, the dialect, and the overall aesthetic might come in handy (not a firm necessity, however.)

Time and Frequency:

Every Friday, 2-3 hours

6:30 PST

Platforms:

Alchemy & Discord for voice. We use Notion as an archive to manage characters, track the timeline, share notes, etc.

Start:

We plan on having a session 0 within the week, and if all goes well, we will either start this week or next, depending on circumstances.

"Into The Midnight Pale is a low fantasy folk horror ttrpg focused on hunting animals, witches, gods, goddesses and spirits in the unseen. The game centers around ritual, survival, superstition, and the harvesting hunted animals for resources and magic."

TTRPG name: Into The Midnight Pale (ITMP)

Group type: 18+ Online only, discord, voice play

Time and date: 2pm UTC probably saturday, but times will be shuffled based on what works best.

Experience: Any, all folks welcome

Game style/info: I'm dming a ttrpg game called Into The Midnight Pale aka ITMP, a dark folk horror game set in a cold world full of strange rituals, brutal hunts and things hiding deep in the woods.

The system is fairly easy to pick up if you've played other ttrpgs before, though the game focuses much more heavily on roleplay, hunting, survival and resource management than traditional dungeon crawling, in terms of crunch this is definitely on the smoother end of things, do keep that in mind if that's not for you.

Players take the role of hunters, witches, travelers and zealots trying to survive in a world ruled by superstition and fear. Hunting creatures is a major part of the game, with players tracking, killing, processing and preserving creatures for resources, rituals and magic.

The game is also still heavily work in progress, so while playable do expect systems to be adjusted, reworked or expanded as we play. Feedback is always welcome and players willing to put up with developmental hiccups would be appreciated.

The tone will mostly be serious and atmospheric with some lighter moments here and there between characters. This is an 18+ game so expect adult themes including gore, body horror, violence and occult themes.

Please make sure you have a solid mic before joining.

And now, How to join?: Send me a PM on discord -^ >> [ fractal.s. ] don't forget the full stops 🫡

Hello, How's everyone doing? I'm usually a DM for D&D 5e, i'm in search of a table that needs a controler/healer i'm someone who loves to play on rp heavy games with good stories.

I believe in 3 things: A good game is one that the whole group is the main character and no one is above the others. The DM always has the final word. Every discussion can be solved with diplomacy.

I'm okay with almost everything as long as people consent, and we're all adults.

I usually take on casters that can control engagements, and my main classes are Clerics, Druids, Bards, and Paladins.

My wish is to be able to play a Bladesinger paired with College of Swords Bard. A melee controler focused on illusion spells to give advantages to allies and disadivantages to enemies. A team booster, basically.

Farewell to Arms REDUX

A sequel hack of MÖRK BORG, injecting deadly trench raiding and multi-tier, grand-strategy aspects in the deadly roleplaying we all love.

Farewell to Arms REDUX is a shell-shocked, blackened war-punk RPG where trench-raiding and poison-gas are the norm. There are no heroes, only tragic endings.

I run a discord server where I run a new TTRPG every month or so. We play what I refer to as short shots (2-8 sessions). So far the games we have played are Mothership, Electric Bastionland, Tales From The Loop, Orbital Blue and now we are looking forward to running the Mork Borg spin off Farewell to Arms REDUX.

If you are looking to go to war for the Slagg in the Dying Lands. If you want to fight for HE or SHE or take arms against any of the other forces and try to survive the day, then feel free to respond to this message or send me a DM.

I am looking for 3-4 players. I expect this will run 2-4 weeks. It will run on Tuesdays from 6pm - 9pm CST. There will be a short session zero when it begins. I would liketo start on May 26th if we get enough players. If not, I will put it off til June 2nd.

Thank you for taking time to read.

Game System: Vampire: The Masquerade 20th Anniversary Edition (V20)

Platform: Discord for voice, Roll20 for dice and character sheets

Time: Mondays, 7 PM - 10 PM EST (GMT-4)

Players Needed: 2-3

Campaign Premise: The year is 2025. The city is New Orleans. You are a newly Embraced fledgling, still reeling from the shock of your transformation and the terrifying reality of your new existence. Your sire has vanished, leaving you with little guidance and a target on your back.

The city is ruled not by a Prince, but by a Lasombra Baron, whose shadowy authority keeps the peace only as long as it benefits him. The Camarilla has no presence here, but they want one, and their agents have begun slipping into the city with smiles, promises, and hidden knives.

The Anarchs whisper of opportunity in the chaos, the Independents maneuver for profit, and the Sabbat… well, their presence is a rumor, a boogeyman story, until it isn’t.

This is a game of personal horror, political intrigue, and survival. It’s about navigating the treacherous waters of Kindred society, building alliances, and understanding what it truly means to be a monster. The campaign blends roleplaying, investigation, and difficult moral choices. Combat exists, but social maneuvering and clever problem‑solving will be your greatest assets.

Player Expectations:

• Commitment: Please be able to make most sessions. Communication is key if you can't.
• Roleplaying: I'm looking for players who are interested in character-driven stories and can get into the mindset of their Kindred.
• Knowledge: V20 experience is a plus, but not required. New players are welcome as long as you're willing to learn the rules. We will be using most V20 books, with some homebrew elements from V5 to enrich the lore and mechanics.
• Maturity: This game deals with mature themes (violence, horror, difficult moral choices). Please be respectful and mature with your fellow players. A zero-tolerance policy for out-of-character harassment or bigotry of any kind is in effect. We are an LGBTQ+ friendly group. Character Creation:
• We'll be creating characters together during a Session 0.
• Starting as fledglings (Neonates) so you can experience the descent into the world of darkness alongside your character. About the GM: I've been running TTRPG games for over 7 years. My style is focused on player agency and creating a living, breathing world that reacts to your choices. I love building detailed NPCs and complex political webs for players to get tangled in. I'm excited to explore the darkness of New Orleans with a new group!

How to Apply: If you're interested, please send me a PM with the following information:

• Your name/handle and age.
• Your experience with VTM or other TTRPGs.
• What draws you to a V20 game?
• A brief character concept or two you'd be interested in playing (e.g., a Ventrue ex-financier, a Nosferatu investigative reporter, etc.). This doesn't have to be final! I'll be reaching out to promising candidates for a quick voice chat on Discord to see if we're a good fit. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Important Info:

• Every other Friday, time is uncertain atm, but sometime in the evening.
• 18+ only
• Starting level uncertain, between 1-3
• Point Buy
• 3rd party content allowed with dm approval, same goes for homebrew

How to Apply:

Message me on Discord at _nakota and answer the following questions when you do

1. Name or Preferred Title
2. Timezone
3. Age
4. Tell me a bit about yourself, what other things are you interested in besides dnd?

These next few will be questions covered in VC for a vibe check, we'll work out a time once you message me!

1. Level of Experience (Not a ton Required)
2. What do you want to see in this game
3. How are you as a player, what do you enjoy most
4. How would you deal with conflict between players and the dm
5. Do you have a character idea?

The World:

This campaign takes place on the world of Vitanova, a planet that houses the rufugee species of Faerun after Asmodeus brought down Armageddon. The game will primarily take place on the continent of Sanctus, a continent with 4 main powers: The Aleanza, a fedual theocracy led by a line of demi god warriors known as The Heralds and their great vassal houses. The Marius Concord, a collection of city states who use their mercenary armies to maintain powerful influence in the merchant world. The Khalrag Dominion, a host of beast-like races who banded together after they were forced to flee from a devastating war. Finally, the Jarldom of Nordria to the north, a kingdom of giant and their kin who used to raid and pillage the coastlines to the south. The world is a collection of unique and familiar faces from Faerun and inside youll find GOT esque poltical intrigue, dragon slaying, jungle adventures, anything you would find in a typical fantasy adventure and more!

The Game:

This game is going to be a roleplay heavy, player driven sandbox esque experience. There will be an overarching plot, but its up to the players if they interact with it as they certainly dont have to, but if they do they could change the fate of not only the continent, but the world. Player backstories are CRUCIAL as they will be a big driving force on what the players do and where they go. Players are free to venture as they please and as the dm I will fill the world and towns with interesting and varied questlines. Want to slay a dragon? Start investigating and tracking one! Want to join an adventure guild for a more structured stream of jobs, go for it! My world has enough tools on offer to satiate anything your little heart might desire.

Topics Covered:

Dont join this game if you dont like the following subject material being coveredor at least present:

• Fantasy Racism, due to historical events a couple of the more bestial races or races aligned with devils, such as tieflings, face much racial scrutiny in some parts of the world, not kill on sight scrutiny, but its present.
• Slavery is present, in some areas more than others
• Gore, pretty detailed descriptions
• Profanity
• Other misc topics you can lmk if theres anything you dont want to see as well

⚠️ FALLOUT RPG CAMPAIGN RECRUITMENT ⚠️

War never changes. People do.

The world is dead, fractured into desperate settlements, raider kingdoms, broken highways, rusted factories, irradiated forests, and old-world ghosts still clawing at the surface. Every bullet matters. Every choice echoes. Every alliance can save you... or get you gutted in the dirt.

This campaign focuses on:

☢️ grounded survival

☢️ morally grey factions

☢️ meaningful player choices

☢️ realistic wasteland politics

☢️ dangerous exploration

☢️ scarcity and tension

☢️ dark humor and brutal consequences

Expect a world inspired by:

Fallout: New Vegas, Metro, STALKER, The Road, Mad Max, and classic Americana rotting beneath nuclear ash.

You are not superheroes.

You are scavengers, drifters, mercenaries, ex-soldiers, smugglers, cultists, bounty hunters, wasteland doctors, mechanics, and survivors trying to carve meaning out of a dead world.

Factions rise and collapse.

Settlements need protection.

Raiders evolve into armies.

The old world still hides secrets beneath concrete tombs.

The wasteland reacts to your actions.

Power vacuums form.

People remember what you do.

This is a serious roleplay-focused campaign with strong atmosphere, player freedom, immersive storytelling, and consequences that matter.

The wasteland doesn't care about fairness.

Only survival.

Ever since I started gaming, I’ve wanted be part of a campaign where players get to create the world by living in it, and lasting over a long enough time span that you get to experience the long term fruit of your actions. After years of tinkering with the mechanics, I think I can make that happen. You might hatch a dragon egg as one character, then, centuries later, visit a city ruled by riders of domesticated dragons descended from your hatchling. The troubled orphan who you take on as your sorcerer apprentice might become the dark lord that your next character has to slay.

Each player customizes their own civilization using a sheet I will send to them, and gets to draw a section of the world map in which that civilization inhabits. At the start of each session, you will get the chance to briefly determine the actions of your civilization within a particular era, and, from then on, play as a hero during a turning point in that era.

Aa a GM, I am a huge lover of unconventional and chaotic solutions from my players. The beauty of TTRPG’s is to stumble on a story I never could have seen coming, not to follow any particular formula. The flip side of that freedom to explore whatever happens is that I am also unlikely to hand wave bad consequences for the sake of convenience. In past campaigns, I’ve allowed players to kill the big bad without ever fighting while also doing nothing to prevent PC’s from dying permanently when that is what the situation led to.

We will play using the voice chat on Discord. I have a dice rolling program that’s worked well for me in past campaigns, but I’m open to suggestions on that front. Please tell me your availability and I will try to find a good time for everyone to play, possibly splitting people into multiple campaigns.

Hey, My name is Vulpes, Im an experianced player and a fairly new DM. I've been playing since 2014 but have only DM'd a couple of oneshots and want to run something a bit more substantial. I have one player already but I'm looking for 2-3 more people to run through the Tomb of Annihilation.

The game will be run every Sunday at 6pm mountain time (8pm Eastern) and will run for about 4 hours.

This game is LGBT+ friendly and welcome to players new or old. I do require players to be at least 18. It will be played over discord and Foundry VTT. 

Game Pitch

You have heard rumors about what people are calling the Death Curse, resurrection spells have been failing and people who have been resurrected are withering away. You are being hired by Syndra Silvane, A merchant and former archmage who has been afflicted with this death curse.  She has received information that the source is on the newly found continent of Chult.

Character Creation

The players will start at 3rd level. I'm pretty lenient on races/classes. Anything in the official books is 100% ok with me. Anything outside that is up for discussion. While an extensive character backstory isn't necessary I will attempt to include any backstory elements I can into the game.

If you have any questions either comment or DM me.

I'm looking for players to start a chronicle in Vampire: The Masquerade 5th edition (V5). I'm new to the system, and pretty new to running games in general. I have a lot of anxiety around it, but I want to give it a try and the only way to make myself less nervous is to just do it.

A little about me. I'm a 38 year old queer, trans woman. I'm diagnosed ADHD with Anxiety and Depression. Also very likely on the autism spectrum, but never formally diagnosed. TTRPGs are kind of one of my hyperfocuses and the setting for V:tM has always been something that I've been drawn too. My experience is all with DnD 3/3.5 and 5e, as well as FFG Star Wars RPG. I treat rules more as guidelines than actual rules (Thank you Cpt. Barbosa). They provide framework, but if they get in the way of enjoyment or fun for the group, they can be selectively ignored (also known as I will likely irritate rules lawyers). I've only ran a couple of one-shots in the past so this is my first foray into an ongoing game, but I really want the challenge.

I'm ideally looking for 3-5 players who are new to the system, or even new to ttrpgs in general. Priority is to other LGBTQ+ Neurodivergents. I know there are a lot of people who are neither that are likely looking for games, but I'd like to create that safe space of shared/similar experiences among the group if possible.

I'm based in the US East Coast, so games will be Eastern Time. I'm targeting either weekly or bi-weekly game on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday evening with a target start of between 7 and 8 pm and a run time of 2-3 hours per session based on group preference.

Game will be played via Discord and Alchemy VTT. I want to do the game set up collaboratively as a group during session 0. That means the group will determine the type of game/story we want to tell together, as well as build characters and coterie together for a shared experience that we can build in links between characters and setting. I'm looking at Philadelphia as a potential city, but I'm not sold completely and am willing to shift if my final group prefers another area.

I'm gauging interest now and posting in a couple places. I will send out a more detailed questionnaire directly once people start expressing interest, and probably pull some people in to chat via discord once a group is more closely narrowed down.

TLDR: I'm a trans, neurodivergent ST/GM new to VtM: V5 and pretty new to running a ttrpg games. Looking for 3-5 LGBTQ+ and Neurodivergent players new to V:tM V5 to play one night weekly/bi-weekly for 2-3 hours starting around 7/8 pm eastern time. Game on Discord and Alchemy VTT. Will send questionnaires directly once interest is expressed. Feel free to DM with questions/interest or reply to post.

I was originally going to dm for my obline dnd group but i never dm’d before and i decided that it’d be best if i became a player and found a different dm so thats what im doing

We dont have a set schedule in mind yet given we dont even have a dm right now

Me personally i love faerun stuff but the rest of the group seems fine with playing anything fantasy

We’re all LGBTQ+ and we are all 18 or older

We are all in varying timezones, most of us are in north America (canada, america etc) but one of us is in the UK

I’ll be playing so including myself, we have 4 players but soon to be 5

So 5 players and a dm makes 6 total
