Hello, I'm a new non native english gm who is looking to run a homebrew scifi horror campaign using alien rpg system that has dnd like brewed classes and mechanics from it.

Things you may want to know : 1: Since this is a horror campaign, by any chance if i do a good job describing things successfully if any of the scenrarios make you uncomfortable, you can ask me to skip.

2: This a campaign where your character can die in many ways, i know how much time it takes to create a character and how attached to your character you will get , fatal injuries, critical injuries you can survive and it will take days to heal depending on the wound. so to give you some edge i'm giving you a new mechanic to use called "Sol Clock" with this you can reverse, forward, pause time on the same day a event happened (for 5 second pause time limit, this mechanic will come into play as you get through the story) but you can't pause the time infinitely. using this mechanic has consequences related to time. I will be using alien rpg system with D&D like brewed classes. Andusing some of D&D mechanics to make some things easy to understand.

3: You can play as one from an alien species, android, human, your imagination is the limit here by working closer with me we can come up with anything.

Requirements :

18+ not because of the campaign setting eventhough it can be a reason but it's what I'm comfortable with, be nice to eachother please we are all here to have a good time and enjoy our time, if you have something in your mind be open about it, communication is key to solving problems. Good mic, roll20 account.

i hope you will be patient with me since english is not my first language and explore the world I'm working on

Game time is on monday 1pm cst.

If you are willing to give a new gm a chance, that would be awesome. Any questions or anything can be discussed. If you are interested in joining dm me here and i will dm you my discord tag so that we can discuss about how to create your character.

Welcome to the USS Lionheart, a Star Trek sim taking place in the year 2382. The Romulans have taken their first hesitant steps towards peace with the other great powers of the Alpha and Beta Quadrants. The Klingon Empire is stable. Cardassia continues its long, slow march towards post war reconstruction and The Borg have not been heard from since Voyager's return. All seems at peace.

And sadly that is when peace is at its most fragile...

Star Trek, Lionheart, is an online sim played via e-mail. We are currently in need of the following roles:

Chief of Operations Chief Tactical Officer Chief Helmsman Counsellor

Check out the web site here.

My core group of gamers have been together since the 80's. Naturally, we've suffered some attrition over the years and need some new blood. This is mostly an adult-only group. Our youngest player is 40. We rarely play more than once per month, usually for 4-6 hours on a weekend afternoon/evening.

Covid has forced us into the online virtual tabletop realm, and we are suffering along until such time as Covid is less of a threat.

We are currently using the Fantasy Grounds Unity virtual tabletop. Players do not need to purchase anything, as all content licensing is done by the DM.

We're an online group of Star Trek fans who play Star Trek Adventures. Our game is set in the TOS era, and we've recently moved into the early classic movie time period. We are talking a short break from Starfleet to play as Klingons for a change of pace. When we return to our Starfleet crew we will begin the Shackleton Expanse Campaign. Our Starfleet crew is aboard the Miranda-class U.S.S. Tempest (currently under-going an 18 month refit). We lost two members to real life concerns so most roles are available. Our crew currently consists of a Science Officer and a Chief Engineer. We play on Roll20 and use Discord for voice. One of our members is in the UK so we usually start at 4:30 PM to accommodate his time zone.

Descend deep beneath the earth and risk it all for fame & fortune in Karsti Arcadia:an underground continent-sized megadungeon filled with filthy peasants, disgusting nobility, gunpowder, and magic. The Arcadian Campaign runs on LURPS: a ruleset for fantasy RPGs set somewhere in the Georgian era.

LURPS Core features include:

• No classes, all point-buy. Build your character your way, straight from the start. There are no arbitrary restrictions for skills, feats or abilities, nor any need to plan several levels in advance.• D6 dice pool. All you need are a few six-sided dice.• Tightly designed freeform magic system. No more hunting for optimal spell lists, nor having to argue about what exactly can or can't be done.• More options for martial characters. Perform fancy feats of sword work with the Special move system.

You can create characters through the Core Rules or with the Joe Glass online character creator. https://mucker71.itch.io/lurps-core-rules-pdf

I run Theater of the Mind sessions every other Thur, 3:30 PM EST (UTC time: 8:30 PM).

First session starts Thur, Jan 20, 3:30 PM EST

Next session on Thur, Feb 3, 3:30 PM EST and so on

I aim to run my games on time. If a player doesn't show, we hope to see him next session and run the current session without him because the show must go on. That's how I GM. 6 spots open. Comment or PM to apply.

Imagine a city in the near future, one that survived an alien invasion only to be rebuilt stronger and stranger. Imagine this metropolis enduring transdimensional relocation with whole swaths being replaced with...something else. Imagine a city surviving everything thrown at it.

Now imagine you being one of the heroes tasked with defending such a metropolis.

Science City is a play by e-mail taking place in an original universe inspired by numerous sources such as DC and Marvel, anime, independent comics like Grimjack. Check out the web site to see the wiki as well as the PCs, GMPCs and NPCs to get a feel for the tone. Any questions? Feel free to pitch 'em at me.

I'm looking for players to do an online Pathfinder 1e game every other Saturday, late morning. I went from loving Pathfinder back in the day (so much crunchiness!) to hating it as a GM (too much crunchiness!) BUT the Adventure Path products for Fantasy Grounds are beautiful creations (some really good storytelling and a whole lot of visual and mechanical support to make a GM’s job really easy). I’ve invested in two of them – Curse of the Crimson Throne and Strange Aeons – and I’d love to do either “straight out of the box”. It would require some love from the players for both character creation and character maintenance that should really be done before or between sessions (which we could handle by email) so as to not take away from actual game time. If you're not familiar with Fantasy Grounds, it is free to players. I typically use Discord for voice. I'm already involved with three other VTT groups but nobody else has an an opening during that time so this would be a fresh group, assuming I can get at least 4 players to get it off the ground. Let me know if you're interested.

This is a long-running campaign (6+ years). Very grim storyline with some high points. The world is original, unique, and remains largely unexplored. Level progression is milestone-based.

While I run by-the-book 5E, my scenarios are anything but standard. I (mostly) do not use book-standard items, and there are in-game restrictions on classes and races by geography and time.

Character death is strictly a player option. There are many, many fates worse than death.

Playstyle ranges from by-the-book tactics to experimental play and heady high concept interaction.

While I've played with powergamers, ultra-tacticians and traditional rail-based gamers, I have not held their attention. My GM style is geared toward players who grasp and can negotiate through RAW and RAI, have a strong sense of their character, a willingness to pursue their own story, and the ability to adapt to radically unique situations.

Right now, new characters start at level 14. I accept anything from PHB, Xanathar and Tasha.

Discord server for voice, and something incredibly simple for tactics (not roll20).

Current player mix is one player who's been with the story since the beginning. One that joined post-start but pre-jump. And one that joined post-jump. The jump was an encounter involving a Deck of Many Things that vaulted the campaign forward nearly 8 decades. Each character has their own storyline which does merge with and pull away from the main story.

Feel free to ask questions or message me if you're interested in joining.

Game system: Only War Campaign Start Date: Wednesday, April 7, 2021 at 6:00 pm EST Requirements: Working Mic and Camera Needed: 1-2 More Players “Men, we are the first, last and often only line of defence the Imperium has against what is out there. You and that fine piece of Imperial weaponry you hold in your hands is all that is keeping humanity alive. Most of you will probably not live to see your second year in the Guard and most of you will probably never see your homeworlds again, but I can guarantee you that when you do fall, with a prayer to the most high and mighty God-Emperor on your lips, you will have earned the right to call yourself a man!” –Staff Sergeant Vermak, 12th Cadian Shock Regiment

Only War is a complete, standalone Warhammer 40,000 roleplaying game experience in which players take on the roles of soldiers in the Imperial Guard, the galaxy-spanning armies of the God-Emperor. Fully compatible with FFG’s other Warhammer 40,000 Roleplay titles, this comprehensive game system explores a previously unseen side of life in the Imperium of Man.

This will be a spoof campaign based on most fantasy RPG stereotypes. We will use ZOOM for most sessions. Terra has several islands and cities. Custom Races are allowed and we will adapt them to the campaign.

well i dont want to get all personal n stuff just looking for a buddy to play minecraft java with and maybe some mods mainly looking for 12-16 years of age

Looking for a couple of chilled put individuals to join our game. Its been a while but we tend towards bespoke settings influenced by anything and everything cool! The plan is to run a savage worlds system with a modern day, survival, supernatural horror sort of theme. There's room for flexibility with pretty much everything as we're just after some fun. Come and get involved

The Lost Regiment game is based on the novels by William R Forstchen and uses Home Brewed rules based on a combination of Star Frontiers, Boot Hill and Civil War war gaming rules however no knowledge of any of these systems is necessary. The role playing aspect of the game is played on the RPoL site and the war gaming will be played on Roll20.

The story line of the game is about a Civil War infantry regiment (with some artillery and nurses) that has been transported through a wormhole to another world inhabited by human civilizations across history that are ruled by alien overlords who treat humans like cattle.

The players are part of the infantry regiment/artillery battery/nursing unit who are now living among medieval Russians. The Yankees and their Rus allies are preparing to revolt against their oppressors. The Rus peasants need to be trained in "modern warfare" and learn about "modern technology" if they are to have any chance of throwing off the yoke of their Tugar masters. The Tugar hordes are something like Ogre Mongols, they are a man-eating, nomadic, horse mounted culture.

This combination of Civil War characters, in a medieval society, fighting against 10 foot tall aliens also has elements of steam punk technology which I believe offers a unique setting. I am looking for a few more players who enjoy role playing and also have some interest in war gaming. If this sounds like something you are interested in, then I look forward to speaking with you soon.

Wildemount Campaign with only 1 Seat left!!

Game: D&D 5e (Pay to Play DM for details)

Group preferred: Online (Roll20)

Experience: All Levels

Location/Timezone: Eastern

Availability: Monday 10 am Eastern/ 9 am central/8am Mountain/ 7am Pacific

Welcome to Wildemount!! My name is Mystic Dyrza and I am here to be your bard, chronicling your epic adventures through every twist and turn, high and low and everything in between. We will be beginning our epic tale 1 year after the tentative peace between the Kryne dynasty and the Dwendalian empire. The Dynasty and Empire have put together an adventurers’ guild house that sits on the border close to the sabileer woods; A joint effort to bring peace to a turbulent area for both the Empire and Dynasty. You have been recruited by the guild in good faith, your character will begin at level 2 and be assigned to hunt rank 1 Beasts. Things have been going as planned, but… A fellow group of adventurers have been assaulted by unknown figures. Your new mission is to find the other group and rescue them. They will be awarded 100 gps each member of your party after the completion of the mission Some espionage can be expected in the campaign, some rp, and how well the players can transverse this razor edge of peace.

Now that the cards have been dealt, let’s go over some of the ground rules for the game:

Cursing is allowed at my table, however in moderation. Should you design a fowl mouthed character by all mean RP that shit up all you like, but keep it relatively clean so as to not make other uncomfortable.

Be respectful of the time people spend in the spotlight, please try and keep talking over one another to a minimum. Granted we are all getting to know one another and over time we will develop a tempo that will nearly cut this down to non-existence.

Lets all face it at one time or another we've all been in a game and heard tons of background of another players Mic. This can and does diminish the fluidity of the game as well as people enjoyment. No one needs to hear you munching on cheetos between your round of combat!

This for the majority will run as rules as written, if you want to do something on the fly that kind of bends the rules but does not outright break them... We’ll let the RULE OF COOL Rule! Though it will be sparing, reserved for epic moments and not every session. I am fine with

Welcome to Wildemount!! My name is Mystic Dyrza and I am here to be your bard, chronicling your epic adventures through every twist and turn, high and low and everything in between. We will be beginning our epic tale 1 year after the tentative peace between the Kryne dynasty and the Dwendalian empire. The wind is cold, you have trekked for miles through the Greying Wildlands to reach Palebank Village. Through the calling of a higher power or through your own desires you have come. On the outskirts of the village, you see a gathering of people clad in black. When you approach the smell of frankincense and sandlewood fills the air. Sobbing pierces through the still of the air, passing light wash across the graveyard. The bereft promise of coin and a passage to Iselcross, will you help them? This is going to be a survival and dungeon crawl adventure where multiple factions will be vying for the treasures you will find amongst the ruins of this ancient civilization buried in the snow. Your cunning, grit and determination will make the difference between 10 gp and 1,000 gp reward.

Hey there! My name is bearking, but you can call me Cary. I'm a professional improv actor and voiceover actor, but my favorite thing to do in my spare time is tell fantastical stories using Pathfinder or 5e Dungeons and Dragons. I have written countless homebrew campaigns, and as other redditors I've drawn into my games can attest, they run quite to the side of high concept and high fantasy (and high effort. Haha) Still, there are a lot of really great, unique, and enthralling rpgs out there that I haven't gotten to try, that deserve at least a try.

On that note, recently, itch.io released a bundle for Racial Justice and Equality that features a huge number of fantastic games (they have over 1,600 titles offered right now for less than ten dollars. if you hadn't heard of this before and have some dollars to spare you should go support them asap). Among these titles were a host of table top RPGs of all shapes and colors - GMless games, improv games, GM'd titles, weird horror games, and more. A lot of these titles sound like a crazy amount of fun, and I'll list some summaries of games I'm interested in running, but first let me describe what I'm looking for in players.

I don't have many acquaintances with the same passion for contributing to an amazing story as I do. Great people, and fun to play DnD with, but the kind of people who'd rather you write their backstory for them. Ultimately, I'm looking to put together a club of anywhere from 5 - 10 people of all walks of life who just love being a part of a great game with each other. Experience with roleplay or improv are not important to me - just a love for storytelling and empathy for the other people at the table. If you have either of these things, you will make a great addition to the group! Also, preferably, at least one free weekend sometime... Haha. :D

Before we continue: Please let me be clear that I am dedicated to making sure that this club will be a safe space for all people involved, and will be LGBTQ+ friendly. Some of the games I'd like to have the group experiment with involve horror, drama, and all sorts of vulnerable or intense situations, so I will be setting up safety tools for use in every game to make sure that every player is not just comfortable, but actively enthusiastic about the direction of the story. We will begin with some of the less intense (but just as interesting) games so that everyone can establish a level of trust and camaraderie with each other and allow for mor

Starting up a 2nd edition Scion campaign. Scion is a set in modern day, and the PCs are the offspring of the gods of various pantheons (similar to the Percy Jackson books, American Gods, or the Wicked + Divine comic). Sessions will be every second week, at a time decided by consensus. Beginners to the system are welcome.

Tall Troy’s On Fire – a Night’s Black Agents Campaign

“I must not write down the real names of the days and months which I found out a year ago, nor the way to make the Aklo letters, or the Chian language, or the great beautiful Circles, nor the Mao Games, nor the chief songs.”

Night’s Black Agents (GUMSHOE) campaign in the Dust playstyle starting from the stories of Arthur Machen, centering on “The White People."

Heavily influenced by Mick Herron’s Slough House series.

A game played over Zoom or discord.

Schedule to be determined.

Game in Progress. We play at 4pm GMT every other Sunday. Next game day is June 28th. Team currently consists of Three Players:

Elf Mystic Adept Face & Sniper

Ork Physical Adept - Brawler

Ork Rigger and Bounty Hunter

NPC Decker & Doctor

Sixth World scholars have long hypothesized the cyclical nature of magic. For years corporations, collectors and other factions have spent fortunes hunting down surviving relics of this mythical age. The shadows whisper of lost lore and a secret history to the world. A privileged few have come into possession of ancient items of great power and mysterious purpose, artifacts from before recorded history. Now it’s your turn...

On the surface, the job seems simple: escort and assist Ms. Johnson as she follows the trail of a man across the globe. The target? An agent of the Atlantean Foundation tracking a priceless stolen artifact. And the trail? It leads to Lagos, the most dangerous sprawl on earth, where simply surviving the day can be a run in its own right. Add in the biggest black market auction of the century, a powerful African king, and a plethora of the biggest players in the artifacts trade, from the Atlantean Foundation to Aztechnology... well, welcome to the underside of the artifact business. If you survive, there’s more work a-coming… and maybe even some answers to your questions.

As the above suggests, the base for this game would be the SR 4th Dawn of the Artifacts campaign. However, the purpose of this is just to get people together for a new group. I'd use a module more or less unaltered while we get to know each other.

Dragonlance was an epic story and it's a great game to re-visit.

There are so many adventures that can still be had in Ansalon and with an imaginative DM the world can even be re-imagined. Which I'm obligated to say that I'm very imaginative.

My game is open to everyone and anyone that's a legal adult because I like to mix in some adult themes. Rest assured that the themes are not going to be too spicy but they will raise an eyebrow or two.

Everyone starts at 3rd level and I prefer that there not be any major racial class restrictions or level limits. Hey, I think it's cool that an elf wants to be a cavalier but a kender being a lawful good paladin might be a bit of a stretch.

I'm hoping to make this a bi-weekly game meeting on discord. : https://discord.gg/E5nA7Yf Friday, Saturday or Sunday work great for me but I'm open to re-arranging my schedule for a good group of players.

This is a relatively new AD&D 1e campaign on Roll 20.

We are currently exploring the Northeastern portions of Greyhawk, looking for fame and adventure, or at least gold. We have a good core group, but would like to grow the numbers.

Welcome to the World of Aihrde. This is a dark and foreboding world recovering from a long and tumultuous age where the Evil god Unklar ruled the land. Unklar has been defeated, but the remnants of the peoples of the land live in an uneasy world where things of power lurk not far off the beaten path.

Our adventure will start in Elne a bustling river port. Sitting on the mighty Danau River. Goods flow in and out of the city every day. But, across the river to the West lies the remains of Aihrde's primordial forest; The Darkenfold.

Party up and brave this fierce and magical world where ancient evil and fey await those brave enough to venture from the hearth. Here is a world where even a small deviation from the road could lead to more adventure than you had hoped for.

If you have not tried C&C it's a more open ended old school style system not confined by restricted by massive lists of feats and powers. In this system only your imaginations limits restrict your character.
