Description

To Any Adventurers Willing to Lend Their Aid, The peaceful village of Hearthrest has recently found itself troubled by a group of Dragon cultist have been hassling the reitrees of our humble village. Though they claim to be holy protectors, their presence has brought fear, accusations, and no small amount of trouble to our people. We seek capable adventurers willing to come to Hearthrest, investigate their claims, and help us ensure the safety of our village and its residents. Payment will be provided for those who can resolve this matter without unnecessary bloodshed. Come to the Golden Griffin Inn and ask for Mayor Goldheart. May wisdom guide your path, Mayor Goldheart Hearthrest “A quiet place to call home.” Thus ends the letter the party has gotten from a trader who offered them a ride to the village most directions otherwise to the village have been forgotten over time despite it being on a trade route to Neverwinter. This one shot will have the party at level 5 group who have been together for at least a month before taking on this job. I would prefer if anything homebrew is addressed before hand and shown to me as otherwise it will not be allowed. This is for all things from races, classes, adn the like. Now even for a one shot I am fine having the first Wed as a session zero to go over anything: Yes, Maybe, and Nos. I will also not charge anyone on the session zero as I find that in poor taste. The only time I would ask for the payment would be of the game night, plus this way if anyone has something come up there is no waste of the money on your part and no missing out on the fun.  My idea for this game is to start at 7pm est(i am in america/florida) As shown in the price area my game is $10 as I feel something like $15 is better suited for something of a full campaign. However if any of you feel like you vibe with my dnd style and want to make take part in a full campaign, I will not make you then pay $15 as I feel like thats a jerk move. You would only have to pay $10 per session instead as a way for me to show my thanks in your support. Also while the game itself is on Roll20 I have a preference to use discord for my voice calls as its what I am used to doing from games I have been part of.

Hey guys, I thought I would try running a game for those on here looking for a relaxing game more around roleplay with some aspects of combat for this one shot.

"Year 0" Prequel One-Shot BARD-ONLY (BYOI)

Homebrew
House rules, a custom setting, or a system the Game Master wrote themselves.
LGBTQ+ friendly
The table is openly welcoming to LGBTQ+ players.
Hello hello! I am Matthew. I am a new DM building a homebrew world, and I want your help filling in its history. Before my main campaign begins, I am running a series of one-shots set in "Year 0". This is when an apocalyptic cataclysm nearly ends the world. The future campaign will be set centuries afterward. This post is for a specific prequel one-shot for a party of four bards. AND you as the player ideally have an instrument to RP with and maybe play poorly. When? I run my business from home and have a family, so M-F during the day works best. These one-shots will take place Tuesday through Thursday, between 9:00am and 2:00pm Central time (chicago area). If you work from home, work nights, or live in a time zone where this is your evening, this table is for you! What is it? You will play level 6 bards surviving the chaos of a larger conflict. You may be "just" bards, but together you can make a real difference in this harried, crumbling world. All of this happens under the shadow of the First King, whose mysterious sacrifice during this era saves the realm but curses his bloodline forever. Legacy? Yup If you survive, I have a "Fortune & Fate" roll planned to help determine your character's epilogue. Though you will have plenty of creative control over their outcomes. My particular hope with this one-shot is to establish a few bards as local heroes of sorts. And in the epilogue and leading into the future campaign, these bards and their instruments will be cherished.

If you work from home, work nights, or live in a time zone where this is your evening, this table is for you! What is it? You will play low- to mid-level heroes surviving the chaos of a larger conflict. You might be pulling off a desperate heist for a magical artifact, escorting refugees to safety, or holding the line against impossible odds. All of this happens under the shadow of the First King, whose mysterious sacrifice during this era saved the realm but cursed his bloodline forever. Legacy? Yup If you survive, I have a "Fortune & Fate" roll planned to help determine your character's epilogue. Though you will have plenty of creative control over their outcomes. Survive or not - your characters will become the myths, ancestors, and founders in the larger campaign!

The Silent Tide

You are newly minted Pathfinders and your first assignment is a foray into the Puddles of Absalom to fetch a codebook.  Sounds simple right?  A one-shot adventure The story is set in the world of Golarion and specifically in the city of Absalom. Ruleset - 2024 5.5E DnD When - Wednesday, September 16th from 7pm - 10pm eastern time Where? a private discord server that I will send you the link to if you want to play We will be using Discord to play and also owlbear.rodeo for mapping and battles. I am looking for ONE PLAYER to play a pre-generated 2nd level Fighter.  I had one player have to drop out because of real-life work changes.  I am hoping this experience creates new friendships and I am also hoping a desire to play in a longer term, consistent campaign that I want to run. This is a one-shot but I am looking for somebody who would like to play in a longterm consistent campaign.  If you enjoy yourself in this one-shot, the following week we'd hold a Session Zero for a longer term campaign.   I look forward to gaming with you.
