Update: I think that the party is full and have a couple on stand-by if the people I've contact don't work out for some reason. Thanks everyone!

FG License: Full FG Unity license so players only need demo
Game System: D&D 5e

Planned Duration & Frequency: Weekly – time TBD. It will need to be at a minimum in the evenings, after 7 or 8 and go until 10 or 11. Weekends could be different or later. Will work with players on this.
Time Zone: Central Standard Time

Text or Voice: Voice over Discord (Or other service if necessary)
Will this be recorded and/or live streamed? Haven’t put in a lot of thought to that, so maybe?

Character starting level & equipment: Level 1
Character restrictions: Anything official
Number of Players needed: Thinking 4 - 6

Will run a module – maybe Lost Mines, will depend on what everyone has played before and I have available.

About me: So – I still consider myself a pretty new DM, and know that I’m not the best. However – my IRL groups meets very infrequently, so I’m looking to play more DND. Finding a group to join that I could fit into my schedule just hasn’t really happened, so I thought to hell with it, I’ll keep on the DM hat and see if I can set up my own group so I can play more.

About you: I don’t care who you are, where you come from, or anything like that. New player or old player, all that I ask and will be enforced in my game is:

Be excellent to each other
No real-life politics talk (I don’t care if you love or hate the president, I simply don’t want to hear about it one way or the other)
No personal attacks on other players
No rules lawyering – I will make mistakes, but I don’t want to bog the game down for everyone else by having an argument about something. The time to clear it up is after the game. This doesn’t mean you can’t ask about clarification or anything, but in the moment if I say so, it is so and let’s move on, it can be corrected later if needed.

I don’t foresee anything getting out of hand – but have no problem with R rated language. If something is out of bounds for you, might check with me before agreeing to join to see if I agree that topic/type of situation would be stopped before began.

If any of this sounds good – feel free to reply/message me and we can discuss from there.

I am looking for fun group, not power gaming group.

have a group of 3 excellent players who are looking for just such a game... we would like to Play on Tuesdays if you are interested, we are all mature players who are well mannered at the table. We enjoy our failures in-game as much as our successes...

Hello! I literally just got on here and I'm new to D&D. I've watched othes play D&D before and I listen to lore videos in the background while I'm working, but I'm basically as newbie as you can get. I'd love to join your game if you'll have me.

Oh, that sounds nice! I hope that you'd be fine with a noob like me.

Yeah, I would've started years earlier with my friends, but then something happened and they had to stop before I could officially join.

Myself and a buddy of mine are interested. I have done some DMing and have a pretty good grasp on the game.

I would also like to be considered for your game. A little bit about me. I'm am middle age guy living in the CST. I cut my teeth on AD&D back in highschool, getting back into D&D with the VTT it makes it so much easier to get together to play. Newer to FG (classic) and 5e, never played in Unity. I do have a few games under my belt so I know enough to be dangerous. I fit all your player requierments to a tee. I'm a Vetran and a Nurse by trade (I have a lot of experience in dealing with people from every demographic you can imagine) I get along with 99.5% of people I interact with. I don't ever discuss politics, everyone is entitled to their beliefs, and I respect that, but I escape to a fantasy world to take a break from the real one. Attacking anyone is against my personal Ethos. Thats what goblins are for right? GM is the game master, right their ruling is final? Everyone makes mistakes including me it's how we learn. Keeping the game flowing is more important to me then getting all the rules correct. I try to keep my language PG but some R rated stuff might slip out. I can separate real life and a fantasy game so pretty much anything is in bounds for me. I've never been much of a power gamer, I tend to play vanilla characters. I am available every night except for Friday and saturday's after 7pm. I'm also comfortable with discord and voice. If I am someone that may fit the bill for you, and my time restrictions for when you are planning to play are ok let me know.

I also feel being present for each gaming session is very important, With school starting here soon, there may be times when my family will come first. (I assume Covid will make it rare) If that ever happens I will let you know as soon as I know.

Thanks for concidering me.

Because this is new and still forming - not sure if Tuesday will be the day or not. So, let me get a few more confirmed people and see their day of choice and I'll DM you if Tuesday's are going to be the day.

I'll shoot you a message - I understand the family/school thing as I have 5 kids from high school to not yet in pre-school. I'm seriously not expecting sports, concerts, etc this year so I'm going to need something to do (thus trying to set up an online group) - I'll be very surprised if we're at anything close to normal this school year, maybe make it about a month would be my guess before it's 100% back at home and everything canceled.

I'm looking for a group who loves to rp and stay in character most of the time.

FG License: Free but willing to purchase.
Day(s) of week, frequency, and time: Weekly Staturdays, weekdays weekly after 5 pm PST.
Term: i.e. Long term looking to develop character to lvl 10 +. Also willing to play through a module.
Voice: Can voice chat. Prefer Discord.

Game System Preferred: 5e
Game System Experience: Been playing DnD since 1977. Yes, I started back when the game was just paperback pamphlets!
Fantasy Grounds Experience: I've been playing in FG for a month or so now.
Character Type Preferred: I prefer classes like rogues and bards that require lots of roleplaying. But I've played them all. I prefer to be in character while I play. (As an aside, I spent some time on the cast of Bristol Renaissance Faire.) Let me know the character your group needs and I'll play it.
About me: I'm a 58 year old physicist who grew up gaming. I love roleplaying because it allows me to step into an alternate reality and be something I never could be in real life. Heavy urban RP or hack'n'slash dungeon crawl, I love it all.

Hey, I am Ethan Hofer (14 year old. experienced D&D player), and I'm interested in joining your game. A little about me -- I am a complete nerd, and looking to get people who I can play D&D with that actually know somewhat what they're doing and aren't just in it to meme it (aka almost every potential player I've met at school). I am very non-critical, as long as you focus on the game rather than social media, you are perfect for me. I have significant DM experience, if not wisdom, but have only played one-shots as a PC. I would LOVE to get into D&D as a campaign without being the DM. Although, one request, could you run a different module than Mines of Phandelver, just because I've completely finished that one (that is my go-to module for new players so I know it by heart). I mean, I wouldn't metagame, or at least would try not to, but when you know where every trap and every encounter and every piece of treasure is, it's kind of hard not to metagame, if you know what I mean. If you don't have any other module on FGU, I am able to send a .mod file of one I bought off of DMsguild, and haven't played it yet but it was like 4.8 stars and had a very high number of purchases/ratings, so it looks good. I haven't read it either. But if you have one that you already know, just run that. Also, if you want to contact me, I'd prefer if you messaged me on Discord (Ethanos#0773) and just replied on the message board with your account name. Alternatively, you could give me your account, or just reply up here, though you said we communicate through Discord so I suspect that DMing me over discord would work best.
