So there are two things I'm actually posting for here (both free, and are not scams):
(1) I am running a PBP campaign set on the Sword Coast, 5.5e with homebrew rules mixed in, the story line is original, but the group has been in progress for a bit, and are about to reach a point where the first 'adventure' is over and the campaign will open up with many possible directions, letting the narrative flow in a mostly player driven way, while still having a larger, overarching plot to the entire thing. It's a good place to join, as you won't need to know anything about what's happened so far, really.
I have up to 2 slots free for this.. The group is fairly active, with everyone posting at least once daily, and usually more. We use discord, with a VTT for combat (Above VTT, which I post screenshots of for anyone that has trouble using that; Above VTT is free, but its not geared well for mobile).
(2) A Cyberpunk Red campaign, also PBP, where I'm a player, is just starting. The GM is a player in the group mentioned above; she's quite fair and knows the setting extremely well. There are spots for up to 4 or even more players there (there's just two so far, and she's willing to run groups with up to 8).
It's an easy system to learn, that I'm just learning myself, as is the other player already on board, so no experience needed. This is likely to be a very active campaign once it starts, meaning multiple posts a day on average pacing.
This is also over discord. I presume a VTT will be involved as well, but I think there may be some Theatre of Mind.
Hi, I’d be interested in learning more about your first option campaign. I’ve been playing D&D through PbP for quite some time.
I do have a few questions. What level is the party currently, and what does the existing group look like in terms of classes and characters?
I’d also be interested in getting a sense of the campaign’s tone and how much emphasis you place on roleplay, exploration, and combat. Since you’re moving toward a more open-ended story, do you tend to incorporate character backgrounds into the larger narrative?
I’m in the Eastern Time Zone. I’ve been playing D&D for quite a few years now, including several PbP campaigns. What I particularly enjoy about PbP is having the time to develop a character through their interactions with others and seeing how those relationships influence the story. I enjoy a good mix of roleplay, exploration, and combat, although it’s usually the characters and their development that keep me coming back.
I’m thinking of playing a Half-Elf Warlock with an Archfey patron. He’s a fairly sociable fellow who enjoys good company, a decent glass of wine, and the occasional wager, particularly when he’s convinced the odds are in his favour. Unfortunately, his judgment hasn’t always been as sound as he’d like to believe.

I am interested in the Sword Coast PbP and would like to know more, and “throw my name in the hat”.
Interested, have Discord
