D&D experience - 40+ years - age - 55

Prefer games that focus as much on story and role play as combat. Experienced with Discord, Fantasy Grounds, D&D Beyond and others.

Online Only - prefer Voice Chat over Video Chat. English is the only language I can speak fluently.

Open Wednesday, Thursday and Friday weekly. Eastern Time Zone - US - Can play most anytime - from afternoons to the wee hours. (fairly open schedule)

I prefer a good game of story, role play and combat and am happy to provide as much back and forward story on my characters - as well as submit multiple characters for the DM to choose the best fit for the game. I have experience with all editions, from 1st through 2024 5E, but probably know 3rd and 3.5 the best - still learning 5E but enjoying it all the same. D&D to me, no matter the rules, is about adventure.

My style of D&D is when the players work as a group with the DM to build a fun story. Not interested in competitive D&D or PVP.

Favorite things about the game - Dwarves, Dragons and Humor.

Looking to play, not to DM at this time. 

You could join a campaign restart. Every Wednesday + Thursday at noon EST?

Tell me about this campaign restart and when you all are starting.

Where would I find this information?

Hi FMT,
I'm John Moore, a pro DM running a Thursday evening game of The Keep on the Borderlands using the updated 2024 rules. We play at 6 PM CST (7 PM your time).

We’re three weeks in and just started exploring the Caves of Chaos. The group began with three players, but one had to drop due to a schedule conflict. The remaining two and I are all in your age range (I’m 55 and have been DMing since the '80s).

I charge $20/week, which includes access to all my content on D&D Beyond and Roll20. I’ve developed a custom storyline that extends beyond level 3, with branching paths the party can choose from.

If you're interested, feel free to email me at suburbandungeoneers@gmail.com or join me on Discord:

Hi FullMetalTuna,

With your deep experience and story-focused style, The Nexus could be a great community for you. We’re an 18+ LGBTQAI+ friendly global group with daily online sessions, so your availability on Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays in Eastern Time fits well with our schedule.

Our Westmarch-style format means every DM runs their own world, giving you access to a wide variety of campaigns that balance roleplay and combat. We emphasize collaborative storytelling where players and DMs build the adventure together—something that clearly matches your approach.

Characters start at level 3 with a generous 35 Point Buy, no level cap, and full access to the 2014 5e ruleset plus official content. We also support Play-by-Post and text RP, in case you want to explore story-driven play beyond voice sessions. Voice chat is the standard for live games, and video is optional.

All games are free, run through D&D Beyond with content sharing, and we welcome multiple characters to help find the best fit for each campaign.

You can check us out here. Looking forward to seeing you in the community!

I am interested! But looks like I missed your post by a day - still down for a new player?
