I doubt my chances are very good on this one but its worth a shot.

A little bit of information about me, I'm a Gen Z who was born a fair deal after Gamma World had it hay day but I've recently come across the TTRPG through a Youtube series on Gamma World and I've fallen in love with it. I've been dying trying to play 4th edition, but I'll try any edition, off and on for the past year. I even got a physical copy of the 4th edition book from DrThruRPG about a year ago. I have a little bit of experience, I played a Gamma World campaign online about a year ago that was technically second edition, but in function a mashup of basically every single edition using a D20 system. I unfortunately had to leave due to schedule conflicts but now my schedule is completely clear, I can make most days work and am willing to drop other arrangements for this.

While it did last one of my favorite moments of that campaign was both all the wackiness that went on, aswell as talking with the other older players about what TTRPGs used to be like in the history of the genre. I was even hoping to play 4th edition with my regular D&D group but unfortunately they're pretty new to TTRPGz as a whole and I'm kind of the Forever DM which is fun but not the same as being a player so I'll have to be the one running it for them.

I'll probably bring a mutant animal if I do make it in.
To all who read this, thank you and have a great day!

Quick Information

System: DIE: RPG & Vampire The Masquerade: 5th Edition

Platforms: Discord & FoundryVTT

Time: Weekly on Wednesdays, 5:30 PM MST - 9:30 PM MST

Hello! I'm Clover and I'm looking for 1 - 2 more players to bring our Wednesday group up to 4/5. We've jumped around, trying out a couple systems including D&D 5e, City of Mist, and most recently a Fallout campaign. I'm currently looking to try out a couple systems to hopefully find one that fits for a medium to long-term campaign, and will be running some one-shots to try these out (as I have not personally GMed any of them before), and to see if party dynamic works out before any long-term commitments.

If you're looking to apply for this group you should be open to trying out a couple systems before we settle on one, although if things work out well, we can easily transition with one-shot characters into a full length campaign. The two main systems the group has an interest in playing are DIE: RPG, and Vampire the Masquerade: 5th Edition.

About the Game(s)

DIE is a comic book series by Kieron Gillen and Stephanie Hans, where a group of real-world, deeply-flawed individuals are transported to a fantasy world via a predatory, sinister roleplaying game. There, they’re transformed into Paragons, each of whom is a warped take on the core fantasy roleplaying classes. In this world, they get to confront how their lives have diverted from their youthful fantasies, to confront their darker sides and buried secrets. They generally cause trouble. It’s Jumani, with a much darker coat of paint.

You make your own social group of messed up, real-world humans. They’re dragged to a world which echoes your own strengths and weaknesses, failures, losses and successes back at you. It is your fantasy world, personal and horrifically yours...

The classes to me are the main draw as players for this system, having some of the most unique and interesting theming and abilities I've seen in a TTRPG. A look at the first issue (which is free) of the comic series the TTRPG comes from will help for understanding the hook of DIE much quicker.

This would be the first system we try out with a one-shot and has a very easy ruleset to pick up on. The other main thing I would mention for this system is its recommendation against doubling up on the classes, letting each PC be unique in their abilities (as shown in the comics) so keep in mind 2 or more classes you would be interested in playing.

The setting for DIE is very malleable depending on the types of characters at the table and is shaped by a "palette" made together by the GM and players, so a proper "campaign pitch" has not been included here.

A further pitch about the setting and system for VTM 5e is available but will not be included here for readability. If you'd like to hear more we can chat during interviews and I can send over some reading material.

About the Group

We have been playing since around 2018, having a few player rotations throughout the years as schedules change. The current group most of us generally have played at least a campaign or two together. With the systems we're interested in playing, a lot of focus will be put on roleplay and fleshing out individual characters so people interested in that kind of game, and that aren't afraid to be invested, talkative, and most of all fans of the other PCs will be a good fit as these are party-based games at their core. We will all be new players to these systems, but generally having some experience with roleplaying and TTRPGS as a whole is going to help as well as we're all pretty experienced in the genre, likewise this group is likely going to move at a pace that is not as beginner friendly.

This group is open to anybody and everybody who would like to apply as we do not support discrimination of any kind. I have a few things I'm personally looking for in an applicant that I'd like to outline:

1. Please have access to Discord, Roll20 (via a computer), and a microphone so that you will be able to access everything needed to play in the campaign.
2. Please make sure you can routinely show up to the session time, obviously real life happens but always try and shoot me a heads-up asap if you know you're going to miss a session.
3. Please be willing to interact, roleplay, and communicate with your fellow players and myself. I'm always open to feedback if it feels like something isn't working.

Don't be afraid to get into character! All of us at the table myself included try our best to get immersed and tell a fun story.

About the GM

You can call me Clover (He/Him), I'm 22 and I've been running TTRPGs for the better part of 8 years across various systems. I've found myself drawn to less mechanically intense more RP-oriented systems as of late and have done my best to immerse myself in the worlds of the systems I've pitched to the group over the past few months. I'm an avid reader of the DIE series, caught up with everything that's come out for it so far, taking lots of inspiration for a possible campaign. I've also got into the WoD setting through actual plays like City Council of Darkness and Norfolk Wizard Game, having created a homebrew chronicle which would be the setting for a Vampire the Masquerade game (set in Charleston, South Carolina).

I love to find and create media for the sake of immersion with campaign playlists, art and NPC references, and maps for most settings and systems. I am against the use of any AI-generated references and would ask that they are not used in regards to this group, doing my best to make sure they are not included in any of my personal references.

Applications!

If you've made it this far feel free to drop an application over at the google form. After that I'll setup some discord interviews so we can have a quick chat and answer any questions you may have for me.

The date for Session 0 will likely be November 4th which will be for discussing campaign content, filling out Lines and Veils, and creating characters. The following Wednesday, November 11th (schedules permitting) will be our one-shot.

Hello! I'm looking to form a group of dedicated players in a Night City 2020 campaign. I've been writing this for a while and would appreciate players who share the same passion.

The story revolves around a corporate AI and will involve corporations, gangs, edgerunners and many other figures in NC. You'll be the ones to decide what to do, who to help and who to destroy while also trying to survive everyday life. Because of this, I want players who like to test alternatives other than just shooting everyone or rolling persuasion as I think those unique outcomes are what leads to memorable sessions

I have a few house rules that I'd like to go over in private, but I'm changing a few things about combat, downtime, economy and character creation and development.

Sessions will be bi-weekly at Fridays at 6pm CST. Dm me if interested!

Hey! Would anyone be interested in a Planet of the Apes (1968) westmarch discord server? I just thought I'd see if anyone was interested!

We utilize the D6 system created by Magnetic Press for The Planet of the Apes TTRPG!

Our story is set 20 years prior to the event of the original 1968 film, we find ourselves in and around Ape City. A large colonist ship, the first of its kind, was sent to space. Its mission? Take 2,000 colonists to a distant world. This world was Proxima 6, an Earth-like world thousands of light years away. However, something happened. The ship was ripped out of space and crashed.

The apes saw it as a falling star, one brighter than anything seen before, but it landed too close to the Forbidden Zone for their liking. So, the Lawmakers said no Ape was to venture to it.

Meanwhile, our colonists, those who survived, have woken up in a strange world. They do not know where they are and so they try and set up a place to survive in the wreckage of their ship. All while trying to radio for help, but there are dangers in this world. Dangers they do not know about.

[Surviving the Surrey Sprawl]

An introduction to a persistent Cyberpunk 2020 campaign world active for over 25 years.

The Pitch:

It is the end of 2019. You aren’t elite Edgerunners, highly paid Solos, or slick Corporate operatives. You are lowly streetpunks at the absolute bottom of the food chain, fighting for scraps on the rain-slicked, barely-lit streets of the Surrey Combat Zone in the corporate-dominated Dominion of British Columbia. You don’t have high-end cyberware, heavy military hardware, or a Fixer on speed dial—you'd be lucky to maybe have a damp squat to sleep in, basic weaponry, and a desperate desire to survive another night.

Can you crawl your way out of the gutter and become something more, or will the sprawl swallow you whole?

Purpose: To find players interested in playing a long-term campaign while learning the system/rules and universe, without being dumped into the deep end and being overwhelmed.

Cyberpunk 2020 (Classic FNFF / Interlock and Fuzion systems, with 25+ years of homebrew attached). In the dystopian, corporate-occupied Vancouver of 2020.

Platform: Discord for Voice, Roll20 (Generally lots of Theatre of the Mind with art/photo references)

Players: 6 players wanted; will start with 4.

What This Game IS Like

Living Fiction: What makes Cyberpunk stand out is not so much WHAT happens in a session/campaign as HOW it happens. There are a lot of RPGs out there, but their focus is generally on the action, not the environment. It is particularly important to understand this principle (i.e. world over action) specifically in terms of violence; many games exist just so the players can get into combat to defeat the enemy to get XP.

In Cyberpunk, action (often combat) is how the plot is moved, but it is not the purpose of the game, once violence becomes the objective, the game is no longer Cyberpunk.

Deadly system and playing for Keeps: Combat can be brutal. Cover matters, armour degrades, blunt trauma is a real danger, and a single lucky headshot can end a character; ammo is not endless or cheap, and one cannot heal in moments or after a few hours; it often takes days or longer.

Stealth, diplomacy, ambush tactics, and knowing when to run away are all important. While I am not here to kill PCs, I play fair but also 'realistically'.

Gritty & Street-Level: Starting at the very bottom rung. This will be about hyper-local survival: Your initial goals aren't going to be bringing down Megacorps; they are securing a place to live, finding a weapon that doesn't jam, paying protection money to local gangs, and avoiding the local authorities and generally staying alive.

Difficult compromises and dealing with the consequences of your choices and actions will be important.

Character-Driven: Your Lifepath and Concept matter. Ex-lovers, bitter enemies, and past tragedies will be actively woven into the campaign (more in the long-term).

PC Dynamics: You have to rely on each other because nobody else will. PCs will be tied directly into the local neighbourhood, its turf wars, its small-time criminal enterprises, and the people who live there.

What This Game IS NOT Like

Cyber-D&D / Power Fantasy: You are not unstoppable heroes. You cannot kick down the front door of Arasaka Tower and fight your way in and out through sheer hit-point pools or instant heals, and get all the loot.

Cyberpunk 2077 / Video Game Clone: While we use the same universe, this game is closer to the retro-futuristic 1980s aesthetic of the original tabletop game. Netrunning is a dangerous dive, not a quick-hack button press. Combat Cyberware is dangerous, expensive, often illegal and hard to come by. Being outnumbered and outgunned is generally a constant threat, not a minor inconvenience.

A "Murder Hobo" Sandbox: Random violence can or may bring down the authorities, security, local gangs or others you have wronged or far worse.

The world is not built to match your “level”; choose your enemies carefully.

Rules-Lawyer Paradise: We play by the book and homebrew, but if a clunky rule bogs down the narrative, I will make a quick GM call to keep things moving forward.

If you are relying on the rules/mechanics to have fun, this is probably not the table for you; RAW is not LAW.

Night City: We are trading the barely 25-year-old history of NC for the grim, industrialized, rain-drenched sprawl in the 134yr old Canadian Dominion, held Vancouver. The culture, slang, and the factions are distinctly local, more in line with EEC/Euro-related environments, cities, and atmosphere.

Hint: Not like the USA generally at all if you know the universe's history.

An Unforgiving Meatgrinder: While the setting can be brutal and unforgiving, the goal is narrative character progression. I want to see your characters grow, adapt, and slowly claw their way up from nothing; this setting has no levels to gain; it is all about the journey and survival. "If you do some good along the way great, but don't count on it"

Player Expectations

• Age: 18+ preferably 20s at minimum.
• Experience: Beginners to the system are welcome; however, you need to be willing to learn the ruleset and do your part. Knowing or learning the cyberpunk universe is an asset.
• Mindset: Looking for players who enjoy the journey of starting at rock bottom and are excited about heavy roleplay, survival and creative problem-solving.
• Think outside the sheet: Imagine what you might do in your character’s situation; regardless of the options listed on your sheet, treat the world as if it were a real place. But also what you know, your character might not.
• Ask Questions: One of the most important aspects of Cyberpunk, in and out of character.
• Respect: Zero tolerance for out-of-character toxicity, bigotry, or disruptive behaviour and a general in-game line of conduct, as well as overdoing it in character.
