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.

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.

[Online] [LGBTQ+] [Discord]

Hello folks! My name is Ash (they/them) and I'm putting together a space for LGBTQIA+ folk to hang out, talk about, and hopefully play a variety of TTRPGs. If that sounds like something you'd be interested in, come join The Mothership. Add me (underscore FliesWithRavens underscore) on Discord to get an invite.

UPDATE: My stars! I've finally been able to take a quick look at all these messages. The response has been WAY more than I could have ever expected. I wish I could scoop all of you into my bag and take everyone with me. Huge thank you to everyone that shot me a message, from the bottom of my heart. So cool. I'll be reading all these intently and should be reaching out within the next day or so here. If you don't hear from me, I hope to catch ya the next time around! 🖤

Good evening!

 

It's been a minute since I've lurked around the halls and corridors of LFG. My last haunt around here found me a few really lovely folks, who I'm fortunate enough to still get to play some make pretend with today.

 

We've hopped a couple of systems together, and traded the Game master's chair a few times. Being a player has offered me a lot. But, in recent weeks it has also made me pretty itchy too. Also shout out to having my hours cut, that has given me extra free time…

 

So I figured why not try to fill the void with some creativity instead of more existential dread. Or at the very least give myself, and hopefully you too a weekly distraction from a little bit of it. Maybe make some new friends while slaloming through the horrors along the way?

 

 

Okay! So! A little bit about me before I get on to the good stuff. I'm Alex, some friends call me Spooky. I'm a 30-something (He/They) working in the restaurant industry somewheres in the PNW.  Anxious, silly, weird. I dig movies, music, comics and of course TTRPGS. As a GM I focus on narrative and vibes. Character and story are my favorite. I do think rules are important, don't get me wrong. I just think there are many such cases where they can be bent or occasionally pushed gently into a corner for a moment so the story can breathe.

 

 

 

If you're still with me after all the rambling. Lets talk about what you're actually here for!

 

 

 

What are we playing?

 

 

Like the tags suggest, Vampire: The Masquerade! (V5) I've wanted to run a proper chronicle for so long now, and never really found the right group or enough gumption to branch into such a different system (Back when I was running only dnd as a wee-baby gm.) No better time than the now! My plan is to use The Crimson Gutter chronicle book as a jumping off point for our stories.

 

 

 

 

When and where?

 

Saturday Nights 8pm PST! I like to run 3-4 hour sessions, but I am flexible depending on what we like best. We'll use Discord for voice and Foundry for keeping character sheets, rolling dice, and sweet-sweet ambience.

 

 

 

 

The setting

 

 

Well of course the year has gotta be 2004!

 

Sam Raimi's Spider-Man 2, The Lord Of The Rings reigning over the Oscars, Ugg boots, graphic tees, Razr flip-phones, spikey hair, low-rise jeans, and layers; so many layers. Usher's 'Yeah' is virtually inescapable. Nu Metal hasn't fully died yet. MySpace is the social hub of the internet…. I could go on forever, really.

 

The backdrop of our stories will be New York City.

 

 

 

Tone

 

I like to lean into the drama that the gothic punk genre and the like offers. It's impossible for the silliness to not break through. Just based on my nature. And also the WoD being utterly silly itself. I want to aim for a happy balance. Where the serious and dire moments are given their weight. And the slapstick (for the lack of a better term) can lift us for a moment or two.

 

 

 

 

Content warnings

 

Vampire is a game that deals with a lot of sensitive subject matter. We're playing monsters after all. Body horror, personal horror, political horror, gas lighting to the nth degree; are all common themes that tend to pop up among many others. Of course specific lines and veils will be discussed together in our session 0. I want our table to be comfortable and safe for everyone. This is just a general warning up front.

 

 

 

Who am I looking for?

 

3-4 18+ folks who dig roleplaying, and enjoy a focus on narrative and character development. Who are comfortable with embracing the grime, horror and ugliness of WoD. Hoping to find folks who are preferably new to the system, so we can all jump in together around the same level of experience. Obviously if you do have games under your belt you're welcome too! Just gotta put up with a novice behind the Storyteller's screen. If you're socially anxious, a silly goose, or maybe somewhere on the ADHD/ASD spectrums (or all of the above? Like me) you may get some bonus points haha. Really though. Just looking for a few cool people to hang out and tell some stories together.

 

 

If you're still here after all the reading, and you're keen on possibly joining me at the table. Feel free to drop me a message here on reddit including:

 

• Your preferred name & pronouns
• Your Age
• A little about yourself
• Your experience level with TTRPGS & VTM
• Any hard lines and veils you may have
• Your discord handle

 

Along with anything else you think is important. (Favorite cryptid? The Best Sandwich you've ever had? All-time movie or album?)

 

 

If selected, I'll reach out to you via discord!

 

I'll leave this post open for a few days, and mark it closed if, and when the player spots have been filled. Thank you so much for taking the time to read and potentially apply! Hopefully chat with you soon!

Low Fantasy Christized RPG Group

18+ Low fantasy medieval world.

Step into The Eternal Balance, a grounded dark fantasy world where your choices actually matter. Inspired by gritty worlds like Kingdom Come: Deliverance, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and The Lord of the Rings, this is a story-driven RPG focused on consequence, tension, survival, faith, corruption, and redemption.

No guaranteed heroes. No plot armor. The world reacts to what you do. Kingdoms fracture, people remember your actions, and even small decisions can echo across the land like cracks through stained glass. ⚔️🔥

Expect grounded roleplay, dangerous combat, moral pressure, political intrigue, desperate journeys, and a world where light still exists… but it has to fight to survive.

my world is more low fantasy focused & has lots of Christian themes built in hard wired. Dm if interested.

If you're cool & cool with this sort of stuff then we can become friends.

I got Stonetop after Quinn’s Quest review and having been going over it since. If you’re unfamiliar with it, great I was and really still am as well, but it’s Pbta style mechanics in a low magic Iron Age setting. It’s very interesting with so much lore and detail. I’m looking for 4 players to learn to GM this game. Mistakes will be made haha. I’m a fairly new GM in general but I think it will be fun. Quick disclaimer though Stonetop is designed for long campaigns, so I am looking for a potential long term group. EST time zone, Saturdays or Sundays in the evenings.
