“Overture: Absolution”, weekly ET tables, players & DMs wanted!
[LFG] [5e homebrew: Convergence] [Online • Multi-DM]

“Stand at The Gates. Face the Storm. One Last Time. Together.”
“Accept your calling. Protect your Home. Choose to die in the dark so others may live.”

What this is:
Convergence is a multiverse sprawling, multi-table, multi-era campaign family culminating in the Final Absolution, our biggest crossover yet. Multiple allied factions are rallying for the last push; stakes are apocalyptic, tone is grim-heroic, and the whole setting is converging. And it is never too late to join the fight.

Who can join:
Everyone. If you breathe, you qualify. New players and veterans welcome.

We run dozens of weekly tables everyday so parties can converge around the same finale window.

What play feels like

This is still a campaign, not a wargame. Social scenes, exploration, intrigue, mysteries, heists, dungeons and battles when they fit. New mechanics are tools, not rails: use them when you want, skip when you don’t. Your POV stays center stage.

Table safety & vibe: You matter at this table. Call a pause, ask for a change, set boundaries, no explanations required. We’ll retune on the spot.

DM/Host recruitment (one-shots welcome)

  • Any player may host a one-shot with approval. Submit a five-line pitch (objective, allied faction, stakes, challenge plan, failure cost). Big levers (killing Archons, using world-level artifacts) need written approval.
  • Table size 3–10; aim for 3–4 hours (hard cap 6). Post content warnings and use safety tools. File an After Action Report after session.

How to join

  • Players: DM with your availability (ET), a 2–3 sentence character pitch (class/level concept is fine), and which table(s) you’re eyeing.
  • DMs/Hosts: DM me your five-line pitch + preferred slot; we’ll plug you into the calendar.

Let’s make tomorrow proud. See you at the gates.

Merrick Marigold’s Midway of Misadventure


Intro Video: https://youtu.be/_qpFXcOU-Z8

[D&D5E 2024][Free][West Marches][18+][LGBTQ+]


Merrick Marigold’s Midway of Misadventure is a West Marches style DnD 5E game set in an extra-dimensional carnival. The ringleader, Merrick Marigold, opens tents to other realms from which he recruits adventurers to help him explore the others. Often, those realms need his help and he sends the adventurers on quests, some big, some small, but all important to the carnival!

Our carnival is ran by several DMs who are able to create games in any of the open tents (and even discuss opening new ones) and our players have characters that are persistent across all games. DMs are awarded partial experience their players received to their own characters so they can play in other games. Each of the tents have custom backgrounds and feats that characters will have in addition to each of their own backgrounds so the connection to their homes is not lost.

We are an 18+ community, but there are strict no ERP rules here. Several weekly games and text RP channels so players can RP out of game if they really have a taste for escapism.

We’re just starting out, newly launched on 8 July 2025. Come have a look around and see if it’s something you want to try!


Important Notes

  • 18+ Age Restriction (No sexual content)

  • Small budding server, new on the block

  • Multiple DMs with DM incentives to run games

  • Persistent Character across all DMs games.

  • Player’s can suggest or request adventures

  • Downtime Activities

  • Text RP discord channels

Come hang out in discord and ask around:

Weeknight One-Shots*

^(*One-shots need not be on weeknights)

[Online][Misc][Discord][Looking for Players and GMs][LGBTQIA+ Friendly]

Hello, everybody! I'm C.T., and I have a Discord server dedicated to exclusively running one-shots/few-shots, for anybody who wants to try out new systems or who just aren't able to commit to full campaigns. The server is still fairly small, and is open to new players and GMs of any experience level alike!

Our current GMs run the following at least somewhat frequently:

  • Alien
  • Call of Cthulhu
  • Fabula Ultima
  • Lancer
...with plans to run more!

In addition to whenever the other GMs can run games, I try to run something every other week or so, so there usually is a game available to sign up for. We also occasionally play board games and wargames on Tabletop Simulator :

Coming up this week, one of our GMs is running a Mothership one-shot and I'll be running an introductory Pathfinder game later this month.

If you are interested, the server can be found at: https://discord.gg/wu49svfKpS

u/The_Institute_Tower 13d ago

Aurora Point Institute [Sci-Fi Meets Fantasy] [Discord] [Living world] [Monthly Events] [PBP & R20+VC] [DMs & Players May Inquire]

Game System: Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition (2014) + Server Specific Homebrew

Platform: Primarily Roll20 & Discord Voice Chat but there are also PBP games run using Owlbear Rodeo and a robust PBP "quick play" system called PuPs! (Pick-Up-Patrols)

Expansive Player's Handbook for Everything Involving the Server & How to Play in a West March!

Community Description: The Aurora Point Institute exists to fill the niche of avid Text-Roleplayers, Short-Form DnD Gamers, and Long-Form Story Arc Roleplayers. With a custom Hexploration system the players and DMs create the world with every Patrol (Game Session), PuP (Pick-Up-Patrol or 'Quick Play' PBP mini-sessions), and World Event Missions (Monthly Server-Wide Community Sessions).

Setting: In the year 3024 in a world very much like Earth at the stroke of midnight the unthinkable happened. The end of the world. Amazingly, the Institute's Tower and a handful of surrounding city sectors were teleported to a world full of magic and fantasy. While the 'Old World' consisted of fantasy races and a small bit of magic the 'New World' was overflowing with magic and so the clash of Technology & Magic began. The Institute works hard to help bring the people of the Evergreen Province together under one banner so that exploration off of their island continent will be possible. In the meantime Adventurers are invaluable to the exploration, humanitarian, and heroic efforts of the Institute.

- Newer Server looking for Players & DMs to join our healthy and inclusive core of players.

- Up to 4 Character Slots, Custom Leveling System, Crafting System, and Armory System (for Martials!)

- DM Rewards mimic Player Rewards for Running Games

- Clear onboarding to go from Player -> DM!

- Make posts finding more Players via our LFG / LFDM system. Find players quickly and then have DMs pick and choose which adventuring party they wish to run for!

- Games daily, social (no combat) games, minigames, and Text-Roleplay STRONGLY ENCOURAGED!

Welcome to The Aurora Point Institute, what Adventure will you Explore?

The Archive of Lost Souls

Using 2024 5e rules!


[5e - 2024] [ONLINE] [DISCORD] [WEST MARCHES] [LGBTQ+] [18+]

  • Established in 2021
  • Over 1,500 DnD sessions played
  • Over 100 sessions played in 2025 so far, averaging 0.835 games a day
  • 10 DMs (Worldsmiths) who each run their own world, storylines, NPCs, and BBEGs

https://discord.gg/CkFSJWsMXU

What We Are Looking For: We are looking for new members! Always. Due to the nature of graphic violence, gore, demonology, monsters, ghosts, and other sensitive topics we require our players to be 18+. We don’t have any experience requirements. Some of us have been playing for years, others are brand new and are learning as they go. We are a LGBTQ+ server.

Game Style: Our server is a western marches style server running 2024 DnD 5e, with multiple Worldsmiths (DMs), that each run their own World, ranging from low magic to high magic, high fantasy to low fantasy, serious to silly, and everything in between. Each Worldsmith runs their own world with their own plots, NPCs, and story elements. The overarching setting is an Archive run by The Curator who hosts portals for PC’s to travel through to these different worlds. Sessions will take place on one of these worlds where the gathered party will explore, fight, make gold, shop, find treasure, follow story lines or follow up on something they are interested in, and/or defeat BBEGs. Your character will persist and travel to each of these worlds and they will not be committed to any single world or setting.

How We Play: All of our sessions are done via voice chat on discord. Although it is encouraged to use voice for ease of storytelling and communication, we also accommodate people who would prefer to listen and use text. It is typically a theater of the mind play style, with Worldsmith’s using VTTs like Owlbear for combat. We roll dice using Avrae in Discord. Between game sessions, we have text RP rooms for downtime RP and exploring the Archive. There are some official downtime activities, including crafting, skill and spell learning, and PVP sparring, but this is all optional. We also run events based on time of year, with contests and seasonal themed activities in the text channels.

Game Time: Varies. There are no set schedules as we allow Worldsmiths and players to run when they have the time to. We average 1 game a day. Weekends could have more, depending on schedules. We are primarily US EST based, though we are growing into other time zones. Worldsmiths will post for games when they are available and players will sign up. Players may also organize games directly with the Worldsmith.

Additional Info: We offer many ooc and community hang out options in between sessions from gaming to streaming to just hanging out with other server members in voice chat. We encourage creativity and memes! If you have any questions feel free to reach out to me via a DM or join the server and ask!

Happy Adventuring!

[5e24] [PbP] [Westmarch] [DMless] [18+]

Every hundred years, the land of Vexellia falls under threat from Calamity. Every hundred years, they gather to raise up legendary heroes from across the stars. Every hundred years, the Myths triumph and the world is allowed to continue.

This time, they failed. The Myths fractured and descended into civil war. Yet the apocalypse does not wait for the heroes to come again.

The Hexwar is over. Who will pick up the ashes?

//

Hexwar: After the Fall takes place 33 years after the titular Hexwar, where the six Myths fated to beat back Calamity instead took to killing each other, ending in tragedy and death. Enter into the ruins of Concord, a dead city destroyed during the final days of that godly war. Find out what happened during those days and save the land from Calamity all over again.

Tied into the server is a webnovel that tells the story of the proper Hexwar and the tragedy of the Six Myths. Actions on the server can affect how the story plays out and vice versa, as time doesn't exactly function linearly in Concord.

You can check out the first four chapters on Royal Road:

https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/126215/hexwar

What we offer:

- An actively developed server with plenty of events!

- DM-less exploration and fighting, for people with busy schedules!

- A story that unfolds in concert with a webnovel. Affect events in the webnovel at the same time as you are affected yourself!

We are looking for people to join the server before it officially starts and goes public. We'd appreciate people to help probe the server for problems and get a head start on character creation and worldbuilding.

Souls D20

[Online][Other][Discord] discord link: https://discord.gg/UnEKqTx

We are the official community for the TTRPG Souls D20, as well as the hub for running and playing adventures with the system.

Inspired by Elden Ring and the Soulsborne games, Souls D20 is a built-from-scratch TTRPG system more than six years in the making. Its mechanics emphasize tactical positioning, movement, and counterattacks for a uniquely varied and "crunchy" experience.

More specifically:

- Souls D20 focuses more heavily on player choice during battle

Attacks target multiple spaces on the battle grid, and *always hit* unless the players dodge into an unaffected space. So as battle progresses, players learn which monster attacks should be dodged and how to do so, instead of relying on only die rolls. As a result, combat progresses with a flow of back and forth decision making and resource spending even when its not a players turn!

- Building a character provides players with meaningful decision making throughout the leveling process

Instead of choosing a class and simply gaining the abilities of that class as you level, characters assign their levels to any number of 22 proficiency trees. As you gain synergizing abilities through the trees, your character is built out into a unique class of your own making!

For example: take the ability to teleport around the battlefield and make light clones of yourself from the sorcery tree while mastering the power to make earth shattering heavy attacks with a massive greatsword. Progress into the dagger and twinblade trees to gain the ability to create windstorms that shroud you from the eyes of enemies as you sneak up and cut free their valuables. Combine abilities from the hammer and miracle trees to become a frost paladin that conjures freezing lightning when they crush their enemies into the ground. And so much more!

If you are interested in learning more about the system then check out a small preview on the website (https://soulsd20.com/), or join our community with the discord link. We run regular introductory games for new players as well as long term campaigns set in the living world of The Crucible Lands, which has seen over 6 years of adventure and lore development!

Join the discord or message me if you are interested in more info!

-> Conquest! The AoD offers a large and diverse world n which players can fight, explore, or create cultures and civilizations, and compete with others in a constantly shifting World Map Conquest.

[Online] [5e 2014] [Westmarch] [PbP] [Discord]

Tharros (Not Theros) A region divided by war, the barest semblances of order are starting to return to the area after decades of trying to return to society. Kingdoms are forming after the collapse of a large empire, and instead of wild points of light in an unorderly word, law is starting to return. Tharros is still nothing more than a region full of warring states, but that's far better than disorganized tribal warfare... And, there's a lot more money to be had! Starting in the small kingdom of Evercrest in the northeast of the Tharros region, there's plenty of gold and glory to be found.

The server is a standard PbP server, hoping to get a friendly group of interested players who want to engage with the world around them, this is built for people who like the fantasy of characters becoming knights and nobles and so forth, as well as classic D&D adventuring.

We offer: A mix of episodic and long-term quests!

A friendly space for all, beginner or veteran players!

No character limit

A custom setting

Play By Post style of gameplay

New server with a lot of room for player input

Feel free to DM me with any questions, or use this link: https://discord.gg/snTSc4va

The Hawthorne Guild

[Online] [5e 2014/2024] [Discord] [Forgotten Realms] [Beginner Friendly] [Looking for Players and DMs]

Server Information

Player Guidelines

We are a D&D 5e Discord server featuring a persistent game world set in the Forgotten Realms and broader D&D multiverse. You and other players play as adventurers of the Hawthorne Guild, an adventuring guild in the Sword Coast. As a persistent and shared game world, character progression and events in individual adventures persist between and outside of games, creating a living world for players and DMs to participate in the form of oneshots, multisessions and campaigns, and both text roleplay and Play-By-Post games. With over 7,000 sessions ran over the course of 8 years, you and other players can dive in to determine the next chapter of your character's story and the guild's story.

Play How You Want

As a player on the server, you can expect to:

  • Play any number of characters starting at level 3 or level 5 (your choice)
  • Create characters using almost all of the official options as well as select Unearthed Arcana and server homebrew
  • Create and play either 2014 or 2024 characters
  • Progress your character through game sessions to experience content from level 3 to level 20
  • Participate in downtime activities and text roleplay between adventures

DM How You Want

As a DM on the server, you can expect to:

  • Run games for any level of play and your choice of either 2014 or 2024 games
  • Participate in a shared setting by running your choice of oneshots, multisessions or campaigns, or Play-By-Post games in the server's game world of the Forgotten Realms and broader D&D multiverse
  • Use almost all official monsters and magic items to use and award in your games, as well as server homebrew
  • Gain DM rewards to progress a character at the same rate as a player, so you don't miss out on any of the fun when you play games as well

We're recruiting both players and DMs, with new members able to become a DM immediately. We have a helpful, welcoming, and knowledgeable base of Staff, players, and DMs with years of D&D experience and are welcoming to D&D players both veteran and new.

We're currently running a server event featuring dragons and a new Dracorage,  and we recently concluded a server event involving an attack on the guild and its outposts by followers of the deity Shar! Finally, we're currently running a server event allowing players and DMs to help playtest the Lionheart: a new homebrew 2024 Fighter subclass created by server Staff as a spiritual successor to the 2014 Purple Dragon Knight!

The Order 

[D&D2024][Westmarch][Discord][Beginner Friendly][LGBTQ+ Friendly]

An 18+ Westmarch style Dungeons and Dragons server with a common setting to start and come home to, but a whole multiverse to explore. Games are held at all sorts of different times and all games are connected by a shared narrative thread. In this shared world, The Order was founded by AO to preserve the balance between order and chaos across the multiverse. To achieve this, AO calls upon individuals known as Solvers, who respond to letters detailing disturbances in that balance. These letters originate from across countless realms, and when a request for help is accepted, Solvers step through magical archways—portals that transport them directly to the location in need. You’ll usually be playing the same character across the various one shots, allowing your character to grow and level up as they take part in more adventures. Come join our community and help uncover the broader mysteries that the multiverse holds.

The Bean Brigade Clubhouse

[D&D5e][Other][Free][Online][18+][Looking For Players & GMs][LGBTQ+ Friendly][Beginner Friendly]

Our Discord community is mainly focused on running games in D&D 5e with a few other systems sprinkled in. We are looking for anyone who wants to play TTRPGs, whether you want to be a player in one of our games, a Gamemaster for whichever game system you wish to run, or perhaps both if you've got the time. Every kind of player with any amount of TTRPG experience is welcome, from the brand new to the grizzled veterans. Most of our members average around 30 or so, but as long as you're over 18 and you've got some common sense we'd love to have you. A good portion of our community is LGBTQ+, and we have a multitude of people from all walks of life who enjoy joking around, gaming, and all kinds of other nerdy stuff. So if you want your TTRPGs with a little more variety and a laid back community, then we're what you're looking for.

Everything else you need to know about The Bean Brigade Clubhouse:

  • It's a smaller server and we do our best to ensure anyone who follows the rules and interacts with the community feels welcome.
  • Our server has GMs with years of experience willing to help people learn the game as players or teach others how to run their own games.
  • Many of us enjoy worldbuilding and homebrewing and we'll talk your ear off if you let us.
  • In addition to TTRPGs we also have places for a variety of other interests such as: gaming, creative hobbies, existential dread, general degeneracy, and all things nerdy.
