[5E], [Online], [Anytime], [LGBTQ+], also Pathfinder 2e, Cyberpunk Red, Star Wars 5e, Cogent and more. We have games going on during North American, European, and Asian/Australian times. We're 6 months old and going strong!
You were recruited by the Outer Bureau, a multiversal organization dedicated to positive goals, or so they told you when you appeared in a cozy room with your name on the door. The food in the magic cafeteria isn't bad, and the other Agents have largely been friendly. Most importantly, you've found a purpose in your new life - the next mission with some of your new friends could be a major breakthrough, and you have to admit loving the thrill of adventure...
The Bureau was founded by an experienced group of West Marches GMs to foster an excellent community for hosting and playing D&D and other role-playing games together. It's going great and we need new players! The economy is tuned to a medium power level so it won't escalate into stratospheric power levels like in some West Marches, the rules reward cooperative gaming and creative role-play and campaign-style longform story-telling along with flexible unscheduled one-shots. (Scheduled ones too! lol)
We also have designed a unique, fun crafting system for 5e that allows you to express your creativity and cleverness in making unique items for your character or for others, as you find materials via adventuring or earn them through trade. It's been tough to make 5e crafting be both interesting and balanced and we're very proud of it! Come check it out.
DMs/GMs: host whatever world you fancy on this server. You can run sessions completely independently of the Bureau main storyline, or get involved and use Bureau lore and help contribute to the canon. You can host in whatever gaming system you want, or host independent campaigns. Most games are live voice and use Owlbear for a VTT, and we have a shared Foundry server as well.
Players: Our friendly GMs will help you create a character in 5e, pathfinder 2e, and/or more , and help you learn to be a great GM if you want to get started hosting. Your characters have been recruited by the enigmatic Core of the Outer Bureau and will live in the lavish Castle Beyond the Void, going out via the TemPortal to help save the multiverse (or whatever adventure the GMs have devised). You will have the opportunity to try out other systems but stick with 5e if you want!
We have text/pbp roleplay channels as well as live games, both in DMs worlds and the Castle itself.

Wow this place is awesome. I joined a while back and I am having such a great time! The sessions are fun and so are the people. Definitely would recommend.
Thank you for the review! We're slowly growing.. I think there's room for a few more players right now (and always room for more DMs ofc) but we've got a good groove going!
Hello, I am DND player from the past. It's been 7 years, but this new format sounds awesome. How do I connect. I would enjoy playing. Character built just need to make minor changes. Let me know if you guys are open to me playing. Hoo Haa....
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
I am not knew to DND, but I am very knew to the server online experience. I must admit it has been quite a few years since I played. I am excited and eager. I will make mistakes, but I am willing to learn. Not I am big on following rules once I understand them. Retired military.
OMG I'm so sorry, I didn't see you ask. Yes you can! We allow people to start with one "legacy character" they bring in from another campaign or server, can be any level. Come check it out!
Would like to play, have done DND for quite a while, did some DMing in it, never westmarch though.
On discord as "hennijfc" and happy to chat there. Haven't played Pathfinder as yet, have heard good things though. I have an active interest in shadowdark, though I don't think it's style would mesh well with 5e and Pathfinder.😏 If you ain't willing to die shadowdark isn't for you...
I've many bad habits, but I know I am not my character and my character is not me.
Heck yes we do! It's a mix, some one shots, some mini-campaigns or ongoing worlds you can hop in and out of, some formal campaigns. Come check it out! https://discord.gg/outerbureau

Seems interesting, but since they are often banned, do you allow grung as a race?
We do allow grung! All official WOTC content and Tal'Dorei too, with the exception of the feat that lets you get a 4th attunement slot...
I'm really lonely, can i meet new people in your servers? Maybe a girlfriend???
LMAO funny but for real, I just heard yesterday about how a couple of our players have gotten to be RL friends, it was really touching.
Awwww, I love it when this happens.

Howdy! Sure thing, you can message me privately or pop in the server at https://discord.gg/Mp2q8ead3Z and we'll keep an eye out for you.

Defintely does! We love getting new players and people who want to start DMing, great time to teach them :)

Hey, sounds interesting. Do you welcome players with zero experience? I want to start playing, but with no experience it's pretty damn hard :(
We absolutely do welcome new players. They're the best! Haven't developed any bad habits :)
do you have campaigns as well as one shots?
Heck yes we do! It's a mix, some one shots, some mini-campaigns or ongoing worlds you can hop in and out of, some formal campaigns. Come check it out! https://discord.gg/outerbureau
Ahh this is the thread I was looking for. HI D&DBeyonders! We have been blessed to have some new DMs and now we need more players! Pop on in!
