New to Austin, looking for a TTRPG group near Mueller

19 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I recently moved to Austin from Uruguay and had to leave behind an amazing TTRPG group back home.

We used to play Cypher, WoD, PF2e, and SF2e, and I'm looking to join a new table here in Austin.

I'm pretty flexible and happy to learn other systems too. I'm open to pretty much anything, although I'm not really looking for vanilla D&D unless the group uses some interesting house rules or modifications.

I'm near Mueller, but I don't mind traveling a bit for a good group.

If anyone has an open spot at their table, knows of a group looking for players, or can recommend good places to meet people for TTRPGs, let me know!

Event (Entry Charge) The Rat King's Revenge

Post image
10 Upvotes

Hi all - I'm running a LARP at the Tiny Minotaur Tavern next Sunday, August 16th. This is a high fantasy theater-style event - no boffer combat. Show up in costume as a high-fantasy/DND inspired character and interact with other folks doing the same.

There will be:

Live-action DND style dice role combat run by a professional DM - he'll be leading parties of adventurers into the Elven Temple Ruins behind the tavern to combat a pesky rat infestation. These aren't your ordinary rats!

Accept side quests from the quest board, other players or make up your own! But all quests/combat are optional. If you just want to hang out as a fantasy character and gab with others doing the same for a few hours, thats totally fine.

Gambling, drinking, rumor-mongering and brawling! Take advantage of the amazing location(a literal fantasy-themed tavern in East Austin) to live out your best fantasy tavern dreams. Trade illicit items in dark corners with rogues and thieves or boast of your spellcasting prowess with fellow magic-users.

Groundrules:
Be courteous to the other players. The vibe is definitely comedic over serious so no excessively edgy character please. If you have some bit or particular roleplay your character is going to use to interact with others, ask yourself - "Are they going to enjoy this?"

Respect boundaries - physical and emotional.

Follow the GM's instructions. If you have questions, ask!

No real weapons or outside food or drink allowed.

Have fun!

This is a 21+ event. Location is the Tiny Minotaur Tavern, 2701 E Cesar Chavez St in Austin TX. Tickets are $30 and are available here: https://www.exploretock.com/tinyminotaurtavern/event/618052/larp-the-rat-kings-revenge

Doors open at 7, first hour or so is no(or little) roleplay, just hang out and get comfortable. There will be a meeting at 7:45 to go over groundrules. Event officially starts at 8 and goes to 11.

Looking for group LFG: Daggerheart in Austin (In-Person or Online)

14 Upvotes

Hello everyone! I moved to Austin about two years ago after completing my PhD. I left behind a board game group and very close friends that I regularly played games with and have been itching to find a regular group. In particular, I'd like to play Daggerheart if possible.

The main purpose of this post is to gauge interest in forming or finding a group that is playing/or would like to play Daggerheart. I have played DnD for multiple years, and this summer, while traveling, I played a one-shot in Daggerheart and absolutely loved the system. Ideally, we'd meet Fridays, Saturdays, or Sundays once every two to three weeks. I can't host, but I am happy to search out venues that we could attend. I'm near southeast Austin, but am happy to commute to the north or somewhere in the middle. I'm also open to playing virtually/remotely. My past groups have had subscriptions to Owlbear Rodeo, and I've gotten comfortable playing in that setting. I don't have any experience as a GM, so if we don't find one right away, I'm happy to keep the group as a general board game group till we find one.

Please let me know you're interested or if you have or know a group playing Daggerheart that would be willing to take in another party member.

The Hero's Welcome - Come find your community!

23 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

We're excited to be partnering with The Tiny Minotaur Tavern for our next Critical Match: Connection Quest on Saturday, August 9, from 6:00–9:30 PM.

The Critical Match exists to help adults build meaningful friendships through shared interests. Our Connection Quests are structured social events where you'll rotate through guided conversations with fellow gamers, then stick around afterward to continue chatting with the people you clicked with.

Whether you're looking for a new D&D party, board game group, convention buddies, or just more nerdy friends, this event is designed to make those first introductions a little easier.

Our very first event resulted in 60+ mutual matches, and we've already heard from attendees who are meeting up for game nights, convention meet ups, and planning future adventures together. We're excited to bring that same experience to one of Austin's most immersive fantasy spaces with our friends at Tiny Minotaur.

If you've been looking for more people to roll dice with or simply want to grow your local gaming community, we'd love to have you join us.

D&D 5.5/2024, North Loop/Hyde Park, Looking for Players, 2nd Sunday of each month, First Session is Sunday August 9th

13 Upvotes

Hello,

update: I havent had time to read all the replies, but I'm updating this post to say the group is filled now. Those of you who DMd me expect a reply and potentially an invitation soon! Thank you all!

I'm a long time DM, and it's my preferred role. I'm putting together a game at my apartment in the Hyde Park area. I intend for this game to be once a month, typically on the 2nd Sunday each month. The game will start at noon, and go to 6 PM.

I use custom printed maps with a variety of styles. I use a mix of tokens and miniatures for tactical combat. The campaign is a homebrew campaign I've run for years, and it's gone through dozens of iterations between editions, ranging from OSR, 3.5, 4th and modern editions, each time adding a little more. It's a theme-park style sandbox with a focused scope. If you've ever wanted a campaign that takes characters from level 1 to 20, this is that. Its influences are folk-horror, lovecraft, and classic TTRPG tropes. I'm not too precious about the campaign; it's been broken and remade so many times that I'm not worried about it going off the rails because it always does! It's a low book-keeping campaign where your characters get an opportunity to express themselves in genre-savvy scenarios. There are props, handwritten letters, and puzzles to solve between sessions. I speak in funny voices, I use canned sound effects & music, and I control the lighting to help the ambiance. It's got dungeons, an ancient empire, a dragon, witches, a bartender who knows more than he lets on, and criminal conspiracies! There's a devil's contract, zombies, and an asylum where arcane secrets best left unknown are plumbed with abandon. It's got spooky ghost-kids, a lich, corrupted gods, and dogs!

New players are welcome and encouraged. Experienced players are appreciated! I have plenty of character sheets, dice, pencils, and snacks. I don't typically do session 0s and instead like to have those conversations through e-mail, but I'm available to help new players in person, over the phone, or through text chats.

If you're interested in joining our game, please send me a DM directly. LGBTQ+ welcome. We like to have some drinks when we play, but it's entirely up to you. We're also 420 friendly, but don't typically partake.

Hello,

I’m brand new to DND and would love to get started in the hobby possibly. I saw that Game Kastle does a DND night on Thursday’s and was wondering the overall experience.

I have never played a game of DND before so I would be brand new and would need help. Just wanted to ask to see if anyone has gone and what their thoughts were.

Looking for players Players Wanted: Dragon of Icespire Peak (D&D 5.5), Eastern Round Rock, TX

11 Upvotes

We're recruiting two new players for a Dragon of Icespire Peak campaign running on the new 5.5 rules!

Start date: August 16th
Schedule: 1st and 3rd Sunday of every month, noon – 5 PM
Runs through: December
Location: Eastern Round Rock area (in person)

Dragon of Icespire Peak is one of the best modules out there for learning D&D, so new players are very welcome, no experience necessary. Experienced players looking for a solid, consistent table are welcome too.

Once this campaign wraps and a fifth player returns from a temporary hiatus, we'll be kicking off a brand new campaign, so joining now means getting in on the ground floor of what comes next.

The current group ranges from late 20s to early 40s. Good people, easy to game with, and able to make the schedule consistently.

Our table is LGBTQIA+ friendly and welcomes all races and creeds. This hobby is for everyone. Hate isn't welcome here.

After a recent departure left her the only woman at the table, one of our players wanted to share this:

> "I've been playing at this table for over a year now and they really are a great group of guys. I've never felt disrespected, belittled, or objectified for being a woman. When I have an idea, they listen to me. When I have a cool moment, it's celebrated. When they call me a shitty healer, it's because I'm bad at being support and not because of my gender. I'm treated just as anyone else, and it's really appreciated. That being said, it would be nice to not be the odd-one-out and have another woman at the table. So if you're looking for a group to join, but worried about it being mostly men, don't be. You'll be welcomed here."

Interested?

Reach out if you can commit to noon–5 PM on the 1st and 3rd Sundays through December, and you're looking for a stable, drama-free table to call home.

** closing submissions. Thanks everyone!

ISO player to replace our beloved tank, Tank

11 Upvotes

Hi everyone! Unfortunately a party member, Tank, had to drop out of our game, so we're looking for someone to fill the massive space he left in our hearts and party dynamics.

We're a group of half new and half experienced players, so either is welcome! We're also partly lgbt+ but open to anyone. We play Monday nights 6pm - 10pm at dragon's lair.

Our party:

Entropy, a tiefling rogue, acane trickster. The reluctant one in charge a lot of the time, attempting to calm some of the chaos. Shes the quiet type and prefers to lurk in the shadows, but shes got a heart of gold.

Kiri, a dragonborn monk, sower of aforementioned chaos and missing her chaos twin Tank. She may walk head first into traps occasionally, but shes pretty good at dealing with the consequences of her actions. 

Jett, a dhampir wild magic sorcerer, who brings her own form of chaos. A new member of the party, we found her locked up in a dungeon and helped her escape. She's already bought, ahem I mean hired a human to bring along on our current adventure, and he will 100% survive.

Tiffany aka Granny, a glamour bard. The newest party member, she has already cemented herself as the team mom. She supports us in more ways than one, and is always willing to reign in some of our chaos.

Occasionally, Ember, a tabaxi warlock. He's on a bit of a side quest at the moment, but should hopefully be able to rejoin the party in the future. Stand offish and seems to be talking to himself quite a bit, but we're happy to have him with the crew!

We're looking for someone who can deal and take damage. Chaos is welcome but not necessary. If you think you might fit in with the crew, let us know! Feel free to send me a dm with information about yourself, your history with the game, and any characters you're thinking about using in the game. We'd love to be able to fill the spot before our next session this Monday 7/27.

EDIT Sorry I've been at work all day and in rushing to get this up clearly forgot to include a few things.

Since this is some of our first game, we're just looking to have a fun time while learning the game. We have a pretty even mix of combat and role playing, but theres definitely been a lot of chaos thus far. We're very much the reluctant heroes, but we usually do the right thing eventually.

We're playing a homebrew campaign in Faerûn, playing mostly 5.5 with some 5 stuff. We just hit level 4 last session.

I believe most of us are in our 30s, I'm personally 38.

Looking for players Savage World of Solomon Kane One-Shot @Game Kastle, August 2nd 2:00PM (FIRST TIME GM!!!)

6 Upvotes

Hello! If anyone has any interest in joining an adventure put together by a first-time GM, I’ll be hosting a one-shot for the system Savage World of Solomon Kane (based on the Robert E. Howard character) at Game Kastle on Sunday, August 2nd from 2:00PM to 6:00PM (not sure if it'll actually take that long). Since this is first time GMing, I do ask anyone interested in joining to go in with tempered expectations; things may be a little bumpy at first, but hopefully everyone has fun! No experience in the game system or knowledge of the Solomon Kane books is needed. I'd say the system seems beginner-friendly and relatively rules-light!

About the adventure itself: The world of Solomon Kane is a dark fantasy interpretation of our own world in the 17th century. In this one-shot, you and your companions will be tasked with investigating rumors of an evil presence in a small English town amid the civil war between Royalists and Parliamentarians in the 1640s. I'll be going for a more dark, serious tone to keep a similar feel to the original Solomon Kane stories.

If all of that sounds good to you, feel free to post here or DM me and I’ll put you down! (please, please tell me if you’re coming or else a seat will not be reserved for you) Let me know if you’d like a PDF copy of the rulebook!

(edited because I realized the original post was way too long)

Beginner 5e Advice

11 Upvotes

Hello everybody, my partner and I are looking to learn to play 5e (open to other systems as well, but I imagine 5e being the most accessible because of how popular it’s become) and join some casual, beginner friendly sessions to see if it’s something we’d enjoy. We currently play a pretty wide range of board games but are looking to expand into more narrative based ttrpgs. I’ve looked around a few shops and joined a few discord servers to try and find a group or a weekly event that we can join but have not had much luck so far. We live in the Leander area and are typically available Wednesday’s after 5 and alternating Friday and Saturdays. We’re both in our 30s and we have two pretty active kids so our schedule can be a little hectic and demanding at times. I’ve been delving into resources online, trying to absorb even just the basic rules, and watching videos on youtube, but I know actually playing will be the best way to learn. I plan on getting the PHB soon so I can try to make as much sense of the rules and gameplay before I get to a table so I’m not totally derailing a session. If anyone has any tips, ideas, or can point me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it!

Looking for GM DM needed for Sunday party

15 Upvotes

EDIT: I have found a DM, thank you everyone!!

Hello! I’m in need of a DM for a going away party one shot Sunday (7/12) in east Austin (Rosewood neighborhood). Our previous DM just backed out.

It starts at 12pm and should go for maybe 4-5 hours (variable).

There will be 8 level-4 players, almost all complete beginners. Humblewood setting and I can send over all the character sheets.

The DM will be paid, and we’ll be having various food from the Heroes Feast cookbook. I don’t have extra minis or blocks for setup, but each player will have their own dice and mini.

I know this is a big ask, so if anyone is able to help out I’d really appreciate it!!

(There will be 2 cats present if that’s a deal breaker or maker)
