Archons

I'm a game designer, and I'm looking for a group of great players to help me playtest the crap out of it. Anyone willing to playtest will get a free digital copy of Prosperon on the house. I was thinking of running sessions every other week on Saturdays, since I already run a podcast campaign weekly. If you're interested, sign up and let’s have a blast. To give you an idea of the gameplay style, it’s about 65% roleplay and 35% combat, though that really depends on the group’s dynamics. If you all want more combat, I can absolutely make that happen. The game is a cyberpunk/biopunk mix set in a dystopian society on a distant planet far from Earth. Humanity colonized a world called Khaelmora, later renamed Prosperon by the human settlers. If you're interested, let’s get those dice rolling and have a good time. I just wanted to add that I’m also looking to start a play‑by‑post group. I still want to run a VTT game, of course, but a play‑by‑post format could be fun too.

The Campaign: Chronicles of Mr. Crow's Society of Best Friends "Sentient Crow seeks squad of best friends for playing in the rain, daring adventures, and casual dinner parties. Compensation provided. I am a real crow." You have responded to a personal ad from Mr. Crow, a reclusive and wealthy financier of the revolution. He has a few tasks in mind for you to complete together. Undertake some quests, eat cheese cubes with little toothpicks, and fund the revolution through rampant corvid mischief while protecting your charge from others (and himself). Gifts TTRPG Step into a world both hauntingly familiar and electrifyingly new with Gifts, a tabletop RPG where magic saturates the modern metropolis. In a city thrumming with mystical energy, you'll forge bonds with powerful Patrons and wield their Gifts to resist the oppressive forces that exploit magic for profit and control. Gather your crew and get ready to fight for your community in this revolutionary urban fantasy experience. Magic is Everywhere In the world of Gifts, magic is a fact of life, as ubiquitous as smartphones and as essential as your morning latte. From corporate sigil-bearing skyscrapers to corner bodegas hawking discount charms, the arcane weaves through every echelon of society. But in a world where magic equals power, who benefits and who gets left behind? Not Just Classes, Patrons Gifts boasts an expansive pantheon of Patrons inspired by mythology, folklore, mystic and martial traditions, and radical history. Research-driven and rooted in their cultural contexts, these multifaceted entities are as complex as the concepts they embody. Bond with ancient gods, folk heroes, modern movements, even the living spirit of your city itself. Patrons grant their devotees Gifts, abilities shaped from historical context that let you affect the narrative in cinematic, genre-defying ways. Narrative & Cinematic Gifts' narrative-driven engine empowers you to tell revolutionary stories in a world where magic is a foil for systemic injustice. Wield the Gifts of your Patrons to liberate your community from an oppressive System. Explore the personal costs of resistance as you endure while navigating Backlash Events. Get ready to scalp some Nazis, tear down the System, and fight for a better world. Website: https://www.kindofonfire.com/gifts.html

Looking for players interested in playing in a heavily homebrewed AD&D 2e environment, based in the homebrew world of Avigard. This setting is entirely homebrew and involves a full redesign of classes, new classes, and the integration of a freeform magic system that fully replaces vancian magic.  We're currently in the phase of simply looking for players, and the goal is to find a time between 12 PM to 4 PM for playing on Sundays in a local game store or at someone's house if someone has the room for it. Despite being AD&D 2e the game will be run in a more roleplay oriented way. Though the world will be dangerous and it's worth weighing your options in risky situations, and combat is never a favored outcome, it will not be strictly deadly. I run with the 2e Bleed out rules and am generally happy to provide situations with healers if resurrection of characters are needed. I enjoy helping people make backstories and will happily figure one out, but with AD&D 2e backstories should be simpler than the usual 5e fare.
