Check out the page over at StartPlaying when you're ready to get started! Check it out here! Have you ever watched an anime where an adventurer's guild gets introduced and then is completely ignored? Did you think to yourself, "Wow, wouldn't it have been cool if they'd actually done something with the adventurer's guild..?" Well, want no more! This will be an adventure structured around guild life, ranked missions, anime vibes, and the rule of cool. There will be a lot in the way of combat and plenty of opportunities to show off your build while exploring ancient ruins, ransacking big, custom dungeons, and probably being a menace to a corrupt government official or two. Inspired by modern and old school fantasy anime, alike (think Slayers, Lodoss War, and Berserk as well as DanMachi, Shield Hero, and Goblin Slayer). Everything will happen in a custom setting, on a continent called Mirth that has an epic apocalyptic backstory and a cast of exciting and eccentric NPCs to set up for epic campaigns. This game is welcome to anyone who wants to play Pathfinder 2e for the first time or the fiftieth. If you love Pathfinder's combat, awesome anime fights, and a touch of anime power fantasy, then you're invited to join the Mirth Hero's Guild. Come become the biggest, baddest dude in the room and then make sure everyone knows it! *** Play-by-Post is a low-stress, highly-rewarding format and I love helping people get a grasp on it. Do you want to join a campaign but your availability prevents you from committing regularly? Does engaging at your own pace throughout the week without the pressure of the moment and with consistent Gamemaster support sound like something you'd enjoy. Well you're in the right place! The Play-by-Post (PbP) format is nearly as old as D&D and is a rewarding way to engage in this fantastic pastime. While it is true that the comradery of the kitchen table is lost in PbP, you gain the ability to plan without pressure, to refine your roleplay, to research your actions. Many see Play-by-Post as more immersive than live games, that the Theater-of-the-Mind is more easily engaged without the typical distractions of the table. Expect 1-3 posts a day from me, during the week. That means mechanically or narratively significant posts that move combat and/or the story along.

**Journey to the lost continent - pf2e/5e exploration/guild-building/roleplay focused campaign... in an established world! Join an expedition to the new world today!** - Do you want a reliable campaign from a writer-GM with a entirely homebrew world featured in **published Steam games & a novel**, a **public wiki**, and **multiple campaigns**? Do you want to play a ttrpg besides 5e and still want meaningful stories and a good time? Do you just love magical realism in fantasy, and want a ttrpg? Inquire within! **__Game System__**: PF2E/5e dnd.  youll not see the difference dont worry if you dont know either system. **__Platform__**: Discord calls, Avrae, using Miro and 3d battlemaps as well:) **__When__**: Weekly Sundays noon-430 PM  (PST) **__Theme__**:  New world-coded.  This is my created world, but it themed similar to Ebberon.  Ever want to go on an expedition to a faraway land, or pick up leave for something new?  This is it!  Campaign is a fantasy equivalent to settling on a new planet. **__Style__**: Focus on characters and story and lore and consequences, with fewer but much more meaningful combats, so that each time they happen they are dramatic, dangerous, tactical, and always interesting! Exploration and explorable maps will be a focus THIS campaign, as will the expedition overall. The players may even start their own guild and build rapport with larger factions. I've a few campaign settings all in the same long-running with different themes (gothic vs. steampunk vs. monster hunter vs. twilight zone vs. apocalypse vs. frontier) all detailed :absolutely_kiddo: **__Length__**: With online games, it is important to have players commit to the weekly game so we can build our story and campaign together. I'm planning this campaign to be ~20 sessions, but we'll see! **__Misc__**: I am open to players new to ttrpg in general, though some roleplay/storytelling experience is definitely a part of it. I will push players to engage in roleplay, and combat will be more rare, but tactical and dynamic. If you're new to **roleplaying**, this campaign isn't for you, but I can teach the system easily :)) Group is aged 18+ and respectful of any CW as well as fully inclusive :BonesDancer: ------------------------------------------------------------ Hey gang!  We're starting a new campaign pretty soon here, and we're looking for one more player to perfectly fill that slot!  Someone around our age (20-35) and eager for the style of campaign described above:)  A journey to a new land, a forgotten, lost continent shrouded in myth, with mercenaries and raconteurs equipped with tools of artifice and black magick, alike.  Will the city stand, or will those that delve into ancient ruins in search of treasure unleash older evils?  Explore, today! I've ran many campaigns in this world and each one has at least some small throughline to every other. I do take my games and the world quite seriously and aim to create engaging narratives based around the player characters hopes and fears, and so require my player characters be tied to the world and have enough depth to support that story!  I.e. no meme characters, "edgy rogues", "that guy" players, etc. The expectation is to be present for the campaign and not miss sessions, which is for the benefit of all players. No one likes games that fall apart :sadcry:  If this sounds like the right game for you, let me know! DM me details about you (name, age, experience, passions, etc.) and any number of questions, and we can get started! I'll have quite a few questions, too.  I won't respond to low-effort replies because there's always a lot, and I won't respond in this chat, only DMs.  Hope to see you soon!
