Hello everyone, Alex here! I am a new GM on Start Playing, and I am looking for players for my mini campaign. I am hoping to become a full-time GM and figured this was the best way to start. A bit about me: I've been a GM for 7 years. I am an artist, illustrator, animator, voice actor, and writer. And I absolutely love roleplaying!  Game Premise: In the world of Anangnibi (pronounced Ah-nahng-nee-bee) there looms a threat to the local towns and villages outside of a major port city called Agonan Mizhakwad (pronounced Ah-goh-nahn Meez-hahk-wahd). Reports of attacks have become more frequent and many have claimed to see a flying creature up within the mountains. Maps indicate that there is an old fort that has been empty for quite some time in the area. The local authorities have put up a reward for heroes to go and investigate the area and find out what has been happening. You as the heroes will find yourselves walking into the mountains to find the old hold, and once you get there, you'll find out that you have gotten far more than you bargained for. Who, or what, awaits within the halls of old abandoned stone? And will you survive the secrets within? Or will you be claimed by death much the same as those of the poor raided villages? Death lurks here, cold and indifferent like the sitting stone. You will need your strength and wit if you want to survive. So be prepared to face the challenges and discover the mystery of what hides within the mountain stone. Game Price: $25 per person  Session count: 1-3 sessions Session length: 4-5 hours Player Character Level: 5 System: D&D 5E Sourcebooks accepted: PHB 14, XGE, TCE, VGM (Other sourcebooks are open to discussion) Homebrew and 3rd Party: Open to discussion More information and details about the game can be found here on the Start Playing post: https://startplaying.games/adventure/cmt21mabu0037l404tjn7c32u?ref=cmrmikhi800frl704k6ca84nl  Content warning: While I am a newbie player friendly DM/GM, the game I am running is a DEADLY game with a DEADLY dungeon; your characters have a high chance of dying. Please keep that in mind for this game. If you are not okay with character death, this may not be the game for you.  If you have any additional questions, please feel free to message me, and I will get back to you as soon as possible.  You can also get some more general information about me as a GM, as well as read previous player reviews through my Start Playing GM Profile here:  https://startplaying.games/gm/alexthedmpanda Looking forward to hearing from you soon!

Hello! I've made a D&D westmarch that is inspired by wuxia and xianxia fantasy! I would love if people could join, or if they showed any interest in it! I'm working on a Roleplay-Only system for people that like the setting but don't want to commit to playing in any D&D games. I totally understand, and I want to a fair option for roleplayers! I'm still figuring out the Roleplay-Only system, but I would like if people join while we're getting set up! Here is the Master Lore Document (still in works of transferring information from the server to the document). Here is the application form (very simple and I check it often!) ≿——-༒　❈　༒——-≾ After a brutal siege felled the Spirit Border (a gateway between all planes), malicious spirits and demons have begun terrorizing the continent of Hwa. Towns and cities have become red in blood. In the wake of such disaster, the Jade Emperor himself descended from the Heavens to call upon a group of individuals, not for the ease of task in purifying the Mortal Plane, but for their hearts! These chosen heroes, gifted with the heart of valor and ability to find virtue from within, are tasked with expelling the demons back to whence they came and finding the leader behind the Spirit Border attack. Will they succeed in their divine mission, or die before they get the chance to? ≿——-༒　❈　༒——-≾ This is a real time, high-fantasy game based heavily in East Asian (multicultural) mythologies! From the Twelve Zodiacs to the origins of the Autumn Festival, this campaign-style westmarch is filled to the brim with retellings of well-known folklore, myths and legends! Each one carefully integrated into the plot, some subtly and others not. Games will be held on Thu/Fri/Sat (at 7pm BST or 6pm BST), depending on player availability. As a westmarch, we prioritize flexibility and the personal schedules of players. You do not need to attend every session, only the ones that catch your eye! The intended levels are 5-20, though some players may begin at level 1 with few benefits! ≿——-༒　❈　༒——-≾ We are LGBT+ friendly, neurodivergent friendly, and beginner 5e friendly! (As the DM is a trans autistic man who jumps at the opportunity to help anyone who needs it!) We pride ourselves on making Jade Realm a comfortable, safe place for everyone involved. Can’t use a microphone? Too shy to speak? No problem! We have channels designated for those who prefer to type instead of speak! We also include oneshots, closed campaigns, and a whole wide list of homebrew options in the Jade Realm setting! Best part? It’s free! ≿——-༒　❈　༒——-≾ Vital Materials: - Discord - Owlbear Rodeo (free and easy to learn vtt) - Avrae compatible character sheets (google sheets, dicecloud, d&dbeyond)
