System: D&D 5E 2024 Hexcrawl Exp/Point Buy Time: Sundays @ 12:00 PM EST Weekly Platform: Discord + AboveVTT Looking for 1-2 players
This is the start of having two groups in the setting, a Saturday and Sunday group. The saturday group is full so looking for Sunday folks. The idea is that the two groups will be making a collaborative effort to explore the Whisperwilds.
This campaign blends classic fantasy with sci-fi elements and occasional touches of eldritch horror. Players should expect a living, dangerous world where exploration is thrilling—but survival is never guaranteed.
🛑 Core Campaign Mechanics & Structure:
High Risk / High Reward: The farther the party travels from established safe zones (settlements, villages, outposts), the more experience they will earn—but encounter rates and danger will rise significantly.
Resource Management Focus: Players are expected to manage resources like spell slots, gold, equipment, and time. Long rests can only be taken at established safe locations. No exceptions. Short rests in the wild are still possible but come with risks.
Survival Elements (Streamlined): While survival mechanics (food, water, travel logistics) are present, they will generally be glossed over unless circumstances make them narratively or mechanically relevant.
⚔️ Roleplay vs. Combat Balance:
The intended balance is 60% Roleplay / 40% Combat.
That said, taking greater risks and traveling deeper into hostile territory will naturally shift sessions toward heavier combat and survival scenarios.
Intelligent planning, scouting, and diplomacy are encouraged—and may help you avoid unnecessary danger.
☠️ Character Death is Possible:
This is not a meat grinder, but it is a dangerous world.
Poor planning, reckless behavior, or pushing too far without preparing can (and may) result in character death.
Anyone joining this campaign should be comfortable with meaningful consequences, including death, capture, corruption, or mutation—though always in service of the story.
Hi, My daughter (15 but a very experience RPG player) and I (50 and also experienced) could be interested if this I still open. We both gravitate to thoughtful games rather than hack and slash.
My sister and I are looking for a game. Sundays, as a rule would work. More than happy to play whatever class is needed. I love playing cleric or Druid classes but have played fighters and rogues as well. We have played regularly since 2019 and I have been DM for about 5 years. Very interested but my sister and I are a boxed set both or neither.
