A beginner-friendly D&D 5.5e campaign about heroes who just want one peaceful week off… and absolutely will not get it.
“No quests. No monsters. No danger. Just one relaxing vacation.” …yeah, sure. That’ll last.
Welcome to Long Rest Only, a character-driven, beginner-friendly D&D campaign where a group of adventurers—tired of goblin caves, endless side quests, petty bandits, and near-death experiences—have decided they deserve a break.
So they’ve booked a trip to a secluded island getaway. Sunshine. Beaches. Fancy drinks. Zero responsibilities.
At least… that’s the plan.
Because even on your days off, somehow trouble always finds adventurers.
This campaign blends cozy vacation vibes with classic fantasy chaos—think “working on your day off” energy, but in a magical resort where your biggest concern should be what to order at brunch… not why the island locals are suddenly acting suspicious.
While Long Rest Only has a cozy vacation theme, this is still very much a classic Dungeons & Dragons adventure. Expect monster encounters, exploration, mysteries, dungeon-delving, and plenty of opportunities for roleplay and character growth. The difference? It all happens on a beautiful island getaway—so you’ll be battling danger by day and hopefully relaxing by the beach by night.
🎲 Perfect for New Players

This campaign is designed to help newer players learn:
how to build and roleplay a character
how dice rolls and mechanics work

how to improvise and immerse yourself in roleplay
how to get comfortable playing D&D in a fun, welcoming space
Experienced players are absolutely welcome too—especially if you enjoy helping newer players shine.
✨ Campaign Style
Beginner-friendly
Heavy roleplay & immersion
Character-driven storytelling
Backstories encouraged (bring your drama 👀)
Lighthearted, cozy, and comedic—with room for heartfelt moments
“Vacation episode” energy with fantasy shenanigans
Hi everyone! Please leave your information here in the comments! I'll respond when I can. Especially your Discord. I'm still looking for more people to join. Newer or Experienced players are welcome!
Heyo! My gf and I have been looking for a group to join for a while. I’m a very experienced player who has been playing since 2014, my gf is completely new to the game and is excited to learn. We both are open to any roles to fill in the party to give the other players complete freedom with character creation. I go by he/him and she prefers she/her. My discord is moss.collector if you’d like to talk further.
What kinds of characters/classes you like to play: I usually like playing the magic classes specifically sorcerer, warlock, wizard, and druid, but I've also played rogue and a little bit of paladin. As for characters I've played a variety of character types and personalities but I always find myself either playing the mom of the group, the voice of reason, or the comic relief those are usually the archetypes I find myself thrust and it is always purely my fault lol.
Your experience level (brand new is GREAT): I've been paying DnD for 4 years now so I'd say my experience level would be intermediate
Anything else you’d like me to know!: Personality and other stuff to get to know me better so you know if I'm cool and epic enough for your island resort game :3. I'm african american, AroAce, I luv dad jokes, Fantasy is my favorite genre, I'm currently writing book, my pronouns are He/Him but I enjoy playing female characters, I’ve kept every stuffed animal I’ve ever owned, I luv watching cartoons, and I'm obsessed with gacha games but will never spend a dime of real money on them because screw that.
