Description

The Astrological Pontificate is an interconnection of planets under the rule of the theocratic order known as "The Gatekeepers". Travel between planets is only possible during extremely rare planetary alignments known as Conjunctions that only happens once every few century. After 327 years it is finally time for another conjuncture. In just a few hours all the planets of the Astrological Pontificate will align, opening up an opportunity for you to go off-world. You've been selected / volunteered to settle on Golgotha, a previously uninhabitied and desolate desert planet. The Gatekeepers sent out a small convoy to survey the planet in the last Conjuncture. The reports speak of the remnants of an ancient, cosmic war, and dunes littered with petrified skyscraper-sized skeletons of dead titans and aberrations. These bones contain crystallized marrow, a highly volatile magical battery that can power any machine for eons. For 327 years the powers that be has ben biding their time, waiting for this moment. Now it's a race against the clock, every political power in the Astrological Pontificate wants to get it's hands on the marrow. "He who controls the marrow, controls the Pontificate." Your part in this "Marrow-rush" is still uncertain. One thing is certain, what awaits you on the other side of the portal is a lawless, dangerous world with flora and fauna beyond your wildest comprehension. Will you join hands with a political faction? Attempt to overthrow the Gatekeepers? Form a posse of bandits who hide on the outskirts of civilization? Delve deep into the depths of Golgotha on the hunt for treasure and power? Hello, my name is Fredrik. I'm 28 years old and from Sweden. I don't have a lot of experience as a DM or with DnD. I'm looking for 3-4 players, preferably age 25+. Beginners are extra welcome as we can learn together, but I won't turn away seasoned roleplayers for that reason alone. This is a sandbox-style campaign, the more you put into it, the more you'll get in return. In session 0 we will create characters and figure out what your groups longtime goals will be. All official content, and some unofficial content available on DNDbeyond is available for the campaign. We will be using AboveVTT, DNDbeyond and Discord. You need a browser that supports the addon AboveVTT, for example Chrome or Firefox. No AI Allowed. Please apply using this link. Log in to view We will play sundays 19.00 CEST/CET

Paid game
The Game Master charges a fee to run the game.
Combat focused
Fights, tactics and initiative take up most of the table time.
Welcome to the Somnium Shard. A sundered paradise; knowledge, gods and power's all known throughout the land, its history coveted by lost tomes, cosmic knowledge and crazed minds. With earliest carvings detailing a different world that may have been the Shard's muse, the inspiration for reality. However not all could be replaced, and the world's panorama was in its own natural discourse, with the residents at home. With that overly grand intro done welcome to my personal world, a multi-year labour of love that I'm still working on with every session, a sandbox type world for players to discover, learn about and influence as they desire. Designed as an open campaign for players to fit into as they wish, follow the threads of their backstory, or start a questline that leads to them swearing loyalty to a kingdom. Whatever it is you feel you want to do in a fantasy world I'll accommodate it as well as I can. However do not think that this means everything is free, the Somnium Shard is still a living and breathing world, thievery, murder and the sort will have consequences, as will trying to steal that magical artifact. You'll have to contend with mages scrying on you, rangers tracking you and bounty hunters after you if you upset the wrong people. So come and join the adventure, see where your characters can take you, how they can evolve and develop in this world with a DM that can handle whatever you feel like throwing at him.

Phandelver & Below: The Shattered Obelisk Beginner

Paid game
The Game Master charges a fee to run the game.
Phandelver & Below: The Shattered Obelisk New to D&D? Experienced adventurer? Either way, you're welcome at my table. Something is wrong in Phandalin. What begins as a classic adventure on the Sword Coast will take you from goblin-filled caves and dangerous wilderness to ancient ruins, strange magic, and secrets buried deep beneath the world. Phandelver & Below: The Shattered Obelisk is a campaign that starts with the beloved Lost Mine of Phandelver adventure before gradually transforming into something much stranger and more dangerous. And you get to decide how your story unfolds along the way. ⚔️ What to Expect 🎭 Roleplay & memorable characters Phandalin is filled with people worth meeting, helping, annoying, or occasionally punching. Your character's choices matter, and I'll give you plenty of opportunities to develop their story. 🗺️ Exploration & adventure Travel through the Sword Coast, discover forgotten locations, investigate mysteries and uncover what is really happening around Phandalin. ⚔️ Exciting combat Expect a mixture of tactical encounters, dangerous monsters, classic D&D enemies and the occasional fight that goes very differently from what you expected. 🧩 Mystery & discovery There is more happening beneath Phandalin than initially meets the eye. Strange events, missing people and mysterious forces gradually reveal a much larger threat. 😂 A relaxed table This is an adventure, but we're here to have fun. Expect serious moments, ridiculous plans, terrible decisions and the occasional natural 20 that completely changes everything. 🆕 New to D&D? Absolutely no problem. You don't need to know every rule before joining. I'll explain the mechanics as we play, help you build your character, and make sure you understand what's happening without turning the game into a rules lecture. Experienced players are equally welcome — especially if you're looking for a campaign where you can really get into your character. 🎲 About the Campaign System: Dungeons & Dragons 5e Starting Level: 1 Ending Level: 12 Players: 4–6 Session Length: 3 hours Frequency: Weekly Experience: Beginners & experienced players welcome We'll use Foundry VTT for maps and combat, with Discord for voice chat. 🧙 Character Creation We'll make sure your character fits naturally into the campaign and has reasons to actually care about the adventure. You don't need to arrive with a perfectly finished character sheet. If you have an idea for a character, bring it to me and we'll build it together. 👋 About Your DM I've been playing and running D&D for around 10 years, and I've spent a huge amount of that time behind the DM screen. My goal isn't simply to run you through a published adventure. I want you to leave each session feeling like your party actually created something together. I'll provide the world, characters, monsters and situations — but what happens next is up to you. Grab a seat and let's see what happens in Phandalin.
