Game: D&D 5e (2014 ruleset preferred) Group preferred: Online (voice) Experience: A few years (mostly DMing, looking to play) Location/Timezone: EST Availability: Weekday evenings, except Saturday Preferred role: Player Game style: Looking for a weekly, semi-serious campaign with a traditional fantasy tone and structure (low-level start, organic development, classic setting elements). I prefer a grounded world with a balance of RP, combat, and exploration. Flexible on class/role; willing to build around party needs. No content restrictions on theme, tone, or setting. Not interested in the character creation or thematic shifts introduced in the 2024 PHB. I'm looking for a more classic approach to background, ancestry, and tone. No pay-to-play.
If you're looking for a grounded, classic-feeling D&D experience without the 2024 rule shifts, our community might be just what you’re after.
The Nexus is a free, 18+ LGBTQAI+ friendly Discord-based community running 5e (2014 rules only) in a Westmarch-style structure, but with a twist—each DM runs their own fully independent world. This offers a wide range of traditional fantasy settings, many of which lean into that low-level, organic character growth you’re looking for. Campaign options do come up, though the majority of sessions are one-shots with an ongoing narrative thread.
We start at level 3 with a generous 35 Point Buy, with no level cap, just a +10 proficiency ceiling—perfect for creative builds. Sessions happen globally every day, and weekday evenings EST are an active window for us.
We primarily use voice on Discord (no PbP required if that’s not your style), and support DnD Beyond, G-Sheets, or Dicecloud for characters. All official 5e content is unlocked for use through Beyond, so you won’t need to buy in.
If you’re interested, check out our listing here and feel free to drop in. We'd love to help you find a table that fits your preferences.
