Description

I’m looking for one or two players for an in person GURPS 4e campaign set in Verdune, a plant-punk space opera where biotech replaced machinery, psychic powers replaced computers, and the galaxy is full of alien politics, living weapons, warped hyperspace, and things that should have stayed lost. What the setting is Biotech ships, psychic communication, living gear Space opera with weird aliens, piracy, war, diplomacy, salvage, and lovecraft at the edges Humanity is new to the galactic stage after surviving a devastating alien invasion Multiple playable species, each with strong lore, real social friction, and different mechanical identity Tone sits somewhere between space adventure, political drama, and cosmic danger What kind of game this is This is a roleplay-heavy, setting-rich GURPS campaign with room for investigation, negotiation, exploration, survival, and combat. Violence is always a choice, but only one of several. This is not just a dungeon crawl in space. The setting is built to support crews, mercenaries, troubleshooters, smugglers, diplomats, scavengers, and dangerous weirdos. Players will start as prisoners during an escape. What to expect A detailed original setting Strong faction conflict Alien cultures that actually feel alien Psychic powers with real risk Living technology that can be bargained with, manipulated, or betrayed Mature themes handled with boundaries and common sense Content note Verdune includes adult themes and a harsh setting. Oppression, slavery, piracy, coercion, and brutality exist in the world. Graphic violence, polotics, and sexualility are is not the focus, and anything sensitive can be handled with lines/veils and fade-to-black.  Players I want People willing to learn or engage with GURPS Players who like strong setting flavor Players who make characters that can function in a group Players who enjoy making choices in a messy world Players who want their characters to feel complex, real, lived in. New to GURPS is fine if you’re willing to learn. Game will take place in Tannersville Pennsylvania. in person. Tuesday nights. If interested, reply or DM me, or send me a message on discord: thebluelynx

Hi.  I run a game on Discord, Tuesday nights, 7 PM Eastern.  It’s a fantasy game…sometimes.  It’s sci-fi set in Shanghai…well, maybe next week.  It was a western a week ago, I think, or was that gothic horror? The game has you as a special agent, traveling to alternate histories for a massive, multi-reality travel agency.  Because all possibilities are possible, you can be whatever you want (within reason, about as powerful as an X-Man/Teen Titan and you must appear as human or at least as something that’s common in reality like a squirrel or something).  Our group has a Fae cowboy, and a dieselpunk femme fatale.  In the past we've had robots, intelligent sand, hive-mind insect swarms and so on.  You come up with the concept and we’ll make it happen.  We prefer your character appear human-like or at least be something one would see in reality (a cat or at least something that could wear a holo projector to appear human). The game uses GURPS – a very old, crunchy and confusing game engine.  However, you will not have to do anything, just tell me what you want & I do the numbers.  I (the GM) am so backwards that we do not use AI or software.  I use a paper map and puppets. A bit about the group.  We may have one person, maybe more, leaving and we need a replacement.  This is not set in stone & cannot guarantee this will happen.  The group is mostly younger (20’s-30’s) & mostly women.  Therefore, I would prefer anyone joining to be a woman or at the very least not be weird about it.  This will get you immediately banned.  Please be nice and professional. We’re looking for the following: Foremost is a good personality and a sense of humor (not “my friends think I’m funny"), like actually funny and personality means to have one.  You can be shy and awkward, but don’t bring the mood down.  Next is consistency.  We’d prefer someone that can show up.  We play once per week, and you will need to consider that if you feel it will be an issue.  Finally, we are Newb friendly and pro LGBT.  All we ask that you don’t be a jerk.   We do sometimes say naughty words and drink adult beverages.  Well, at least I do.  This is actually a very special thing we have going on so please take that in consideration.   It's not your average game.   I'd suggest listening in first & you can make up your mind from there.  I’d suggest filling out the questionnaire or you can reach out to me directly at @yeroldpalwill. Thanks.  I do hope to hear from someone.   Hope its you.  Like,  seriously.  Please reach out.   If this is of any interest to you at all, please message me.  I'm probably not going to.   Let destiny happen.

Hi.  I run a game on Wednesdays. Eastern time zone on Discord that I feel needs one additional player.   It's a young group (20's, 30's) and have been around for a few years.   There are 5 players.  The game itself has the players with corporate security jobs defending against alternate realities/histories.   So, extreme violence but with the occasional HR training module about problemsolving skills. Yes,  the worst of two worlds. Because it's alternate reality fighting alternate realities, the player can be whatever they want, quite literally anything.  GURPS allows the players to create whatever comes to your imagination,  but we'll worry about that later.  The tricky part isn't what we do but how.  The group does try to outdo each other in weirdness.   It's not murderhobo, but a new unprecedented thing.   So, you will have to keep that in mind.   This is not for the humorless or overly moral or easily uncomfortable. Think of this as a means to lead you down a new path,  one where you learn about a you that you have never met but has always known was there or you get your money back,  no questions asked.  Feel free to message me or DM on discord - yeroldpalwill.  Seriously, they're a nice group of people and you'll have fun.   Having a sense of humor & a personality is a huge plus.  Thank for reading this far.  If you're a newbie  don't worry,  I'll help with the character.   Just combine your two favorite movie, literature, or anime genres together.  Also, Wednesdays,  7 PM eastern.
