Hello Adventurers!

I'm running a West Marches–style D&D 5e campaign set in a rich, homebrew world called The Shattered Lands. We're just four in-game weeks in, and there's plenty of room to explore, discover, and make your mark.

Adventure awaits in The Shattered Lands—will you answer the call?

Hi, I'm Louis. So as a Christian, I am intrigued. I used to play in the 80s-90s with AD&D. I have been reading some of the new 5e both 2014 and 2024 and the newest E. I am an older [Redacted] male. I am not very computer-literate. I am on the East coast (Cape Cod Ma). With a basically 9pm start when do you stop? What lvl are you starting at? Would you all be ok to guide me through the online system of play. I played in person face to face; pizza beverages and imaginations. Thx 

We usually play till midnight. We start at level 1. I’m looking for a DM for earlier games, as I have children and run games after they go to bed. We use discord to communicate, with voice chat and DND beyond for our characters and rolls. If your willing to try discord and DND beyond I would be willing to work with you to see if it would work and be fun. 

I am on dnd beyond. Discord, I am not sure how that works? I have heard of it but never tried it. Is it free? If we can figure it out, I'm willing to try it. Understand, when I was playing we were just hack and slash. You used exp and treasure to lvl up. Also, certain races could only go to a certain lvl. Example I had a dwarf fighter who could only go to 9 lvl. I am generally free Sat - Tuesday nights/evenings. Ill check back later tonight after 9. I work thursday - Friday 3-11. 

Cool, click the discord link in the original post. You and I can work through the technical stuff before you actually join a session. Just click the link, sign up for discord (it’s free), apply to join and then I can walk you through the rest.

Sounds like a blast, and as a fellow Follower of Christ, I want to join. But I don't have any money, and you haven't specified whether this is a paid game or a free game. Let me know.

It’s free! 

I would like to join if you'll let me. My main concern is that I presently work overnights (mon, wed, fri, and sat), which might conflict with the schedule.

sorry life happened and needed to be handled. I work wed - Fri 3-11 or will be soon. I am filling in until everything works out, I am going to try discord now. So Monday works - corse MNF will be on when my EAGLES play for sure. Oh I grew up outside Philly and started watching them in the 70s. Discord is Gray Wolf 63

Hello, if you have room for another, i am a 50+ and available most evenings.  it has been a while since I played DND so I a defiantly going to be rusty.  Discord is Cearus

Feel free to follow the discord link above and apply.

the discord link didn't work :(

I have updated the discord link. Thanks for pointing that out.

I see the time, but I do not see a day of the week. Do y'all change days of the week? Which days are more likely? I am on the West Coast and I often have church events during the week in the evening.

yes days change

not sure but I think Wed/Sun seems like most of them???

Very intrigued; this looks like what I'm looking for. I filled out the Discord application. (I'm a total newbie, though! I've been watching other plays and lots of info videos on YouTube, but I've never actually played.)

I’ll look at the applications tonight (been super busy recently with work). What’s your discord name?
