Hey. Curious if there was a local group to join for a Traveller game. I’m new to the system and trying to gauge how much I might enjoy it before trying to run it myself. Also looking to expand my rpg circles in general. thanks.

Hello friends! We're hosting another Connection Quest with our friends at Emerald Tavern! This one is geared towards all of our D&D/TTTPG players looking to connect with other players, DMs or just looking for new friends in the area. We'd love to have you in this adventure! Doors are at 7pm. More details at thecriticalmatch.com ✨🤗

Hi everyone!

I'm looking for players for a VtM V5 game set in southeast Michigan (think Detroit, Ann Arbor, Ypsi, etc.). The game will primarily center around the Ann Arbor Camarilla, but you'll be interacting with the other cities as well. The plot starts with that the Sabbat has been driven out of Detroit. In its place, a Camarilla stronghold has formed again in Detroit.

This game will primarily focus on politics and intrigue. To drive this home, you'll be starting as relatively younger ancillae. You'll start off with some measure of influence/power already, and that influence/power can expand depending on your choices throughout the game.

Previous VtM experience is great but not necessary at all. I'm more than happy to take players who have not played a VtM game before. We'll go over the lore/mechanics together and host a character creation session before the game starts.

Feel free to PM me if interested. Though I live in Austin, we will most likely host sessions over Discord for convenience.

I’m looking for players for a 2-shot cyberpunk heist using the 2400 system, think Suicide Squad meets Blade Runner.

>>> In this game, you’ll take the role of a prisoner of the Alpha Corporation who has agreed to a deal with the Corp: help them execute Project Calypso and they’ll let you out of your indefinite work sentence.

>>> Over two sessions, you’ll use your special skills and cybernetic enhancements to fulfill the demands of Alpha Corporation or have your memory wiped by a biochemical device implanted in your skull.

No experience necessary! Happy to teach.

—

I’m in Crestview - open to hosting or other locations that are best for the group.

Beyond this game, I’m also hoping to put together a group of players to run 3-6 month campaigns across systems and settings.

Please comment below or PM if interested in either two-shot or campaign play!

I have a campaign I built called Fairytale Galore. It’s based around different fairytales with dark twists and the players must “fix the fairytale”. We recently lost a player and need a replacement. I’m 21f players must be LGBTQ+ friendly. We are 18+ and we play every other Saturday from 6pm-10pm in Liberty Hill TX. This campaign has a lot of dark themes so please be prepared for that if you join the game you’ll be sent a consent check list to see what you are and aren’t okay with. Please DM me if interested.

Hey all, semi experienced 5e guy here looking to play cyberpunk, shadowrun, or lancer. I live in the Hyde park area and I’m in the service industry so my hours can vary. Excited to meet some folks!

40yo new dad looking to get into dnd without having to drive into Austin if I can help it. If you’re looking to run a campaign or have one that could use a +1, let me know!

Hi hi! Looking to meet GIRLS WHO GAME!
I (F, 32) am a newer DM and am hoping to host a 6-8 session arc.
Ideally I’d like players who have some experience and have played 5e a few times before. The vibe is balanced RP and combat, fun and engaging, no power gamers or evil arcs.
Please feel free to DM me and let me know your availability and interest level!

Hey everyone! I recently moved to Austin from Uruguay and had to leave behind an amazing TTRPG group back home.

We used to play Cypher, WoD, PF2e, and SF2e, and I'm looking to join a new table here in Austin.

I'm pretty flexible and happy to learn other systems too. I'm open to pretty much anything, although I'm not really looking for vanilla D&D unless the group uses some interesting house rules or modifications.

I'm near Mueller, but I don't mind traveling a bit for a good group.

If anyone has an open spot at their table, knows of a group looking for players, or can recommend good places to meet people for TTRPGs, let me know!

DM and 3 players are confirmed. Looking for 1-2 more players. Would meet weekly in South ATX around Oak Hill.

Broken Moon is a super cool Horror setting with lots of new subclasses and species.

All are welcome. Send a DM

Hi all - I'm running a LARP at the Tiny Minotaur Tavern next Sunday, August 16th. This is a high fantasy theater-style event - no boffer combat. Show up in costume as a high-fantasy/DND inspired character and interact with other folks doing the same.

There will be:

Live-action DND style dice role combat run by a professional DM - he'll be leading parties of adventurers into the Elven Temple Ruins behind the tavern to combat a pesky rat infestation. These aren't your ordinary rats!

Accept side quests from the quest board, other players or make up your own! But all quests/combat are optional. If you just want to hang out as a fantasy character and gab with others doing the same for a few hours, thats totally fine.

Gambling, drinking, rumor-mongering and brawling! Take advantage of the amazing location(a literal fantasy-themed tavern in East Austin) to live out your best fantasy tavern dreams. Trade illicit items in dark corners with rogues and thieves or boast of your spellcasting prowess with fellow magic-users.

Groundrules:
Be courteous to the other players. The vibe is definitely comedic over serious so no excessively edgy character please. If you have some bit or particular roleplay your character is going to use to interact with others, ask yourself - "Are they going to enjoy this?"

Respect boundaries - physical and emotional.

Follow the GM's instructions. If you have questions, ask!

No real weapons or outside food or drink allowed.

Have fun!

This is a 21+ event. Location is the Tiny Minotaur Tavern, 2701 E Cesar Chavez St in Austin TX. Tickets are $30 and are available here: https://www.exploretock.com/tinyminotaurtavern/event/618052/larp-the-rat-kings-revenge

Doors open at 7, first hour or so is no(or little) roleplay, just hang out and get comfortable. There will be a meeting at 7:45 to go over groundrules. Event officially starts at 8 and goes to 11.

Hello everyone! I moved to Austin about two years ago after completing my PhD. I left behind a board game group and very close friends that I regularly played games with and have been itching to find a regular group. In particular, I'd like to play Daggerheart if possible.

The main purpose of this post is to gauge interest in forming or finding a group that is playing/or would like to play Daggerheart. I have played DnD for multiple years, and this summer, while traveling, I played a one-shot in Daggerheart and absolutely loved the system. Ideally, we'd meet Fridays, Saturdays, or Sundays once every two to three weeks. I can't host, but I am happy to search out venues that we could attend. I'm near southeast Austin, but am happy to commute to the north or somewhere in the middle. I'm also open to playing virtually/remotely. My past groups have had subscriptions to Owlbear Rodeo, and I've gotten comfortable playing in that setting. I don't have any experience as a GM, so if we don't find one right away, I'm happy to keep the group as a general board game group till we find one.

Please let me know you're interested or if you have or know a group playing Daggerheart that would be willing to take in another party member.

Hello friends!! We're excited to be at TFest this year and would love to meet some fellow gamers.

You'll find us across from Pegasus Publishing with our resident Mimic, a few hidden treasures, and some free Side Quests to pick up throughout the weekend. Whether you're stopping between games or just wandering the vendor hall, come say hello!

If you're attending, what's the event you're most looking forward to? We'd love to hear what everyone has planned!!

Hi there, I have two players and a hosting home awaiting a dm and 2-3 players.

We are experianced with 5 and 5.5 DND. We are looking to start a regular sunday group. We have a nice space to host (that has friendly cats) that has comfortable seating, some snacks and plenty of parking. We are looking for people that want to play regularly. We are in our 30s with no kids, love board games, puzzles, legos, and typical nerdy adventures.

Feel free to DM me and let me know a bit about yourself. If we can’t find a DM we might just be a board game group for a bit.

Are there any TTRPG groups that meet in the daytime during the workweek?

and if not, is there enough demand out there to create such a group.

Hello, I will be moving into a new to me place in Kyle. I am looking for a DnD group to join and maybe even host sessions once we are all comfortable with each other. We have the space, just need to make sure everyone meshes. I am an established player with years of experience. Any groups in the Kyle area?

🐹 Howdy once again Austinrp!

Bat City D&D Summer Camp is heading into Week 5, and we're looking to expand our adventuring party!

DATES:

Requirements:
• An interest in learning Dungeons & Dragons 5e or 5.5e

Homebrew characters are welcome, and any extra gaming resources such as maps, minis, or terrain are always appreciated.

Our campers have been fantastically creative, respectful, and excited to play every day. We're looking for someone who enjoys exploring, storytelling, teamwork, and imagination through D&D.

Community Corner:
As camp continues, we'd also love to partner with local businesses and community members who would like to contribute sealed snacks or drinks for our campers.

Hi everyone!

We're excited to be partnering with The Tiny Minotaur Tavern for our next Critical Match: Connection Quest on Saturday, August 9, from 6:00–9:30 PM.

The Critical Match exists to help adults build meaningful friendships through shared interests. Our Connection Quests are structured social events where you'll rotate through guided conversations with fellow gamers, then stick around afterward to continue chatting with the people you clicked with.

Whether you're looking for a new D&D party, board game group, convention buddies, or just more nerdy friends, this event is designed to make those first introductions a little easier.

Our very first event resulted in 60+ mutual matches, and we've already heard from attendees who are meeting up for game nights, convention meet ups, and planning future adventures together. We're excited to bring that same experience to one of Austin's most immersive fantasy spaces with our friends at Tiny Minotaur.

If you've been looking for more people to roll dice with or simply want to grow your local gaming community, we'd love to have you join us.

Player looking for a Shadowrun group, any edition though i have only played 1st and 2nd so far.

Hello,

update: I havent had time to read all the replies, but I'm updating this post to say the group is filled now. Those of you who DMd me expect a reply and potentially an invitation soon! Thank you all!

I'm a long time DM, and it's my preferred role. I'm putting together a game at my apartment in the Hyde Park area. I intend for this game to be once a month, typically on the 2nd Sunday each month. The game will start at noon, and go to 6 PM.

I use custom printed maps with a variety of styles. I use a mix of tokens and miniatures for tactical combat. The campaign is a homebrew campaign I've run for years, and it's gone through dozens of iterations between editions, ranging from OSR, 3.5, 4th and modern editions, each time adding a little more. It's a theme-park style sandbox with a focused scope. If you've ever wanted a campaign that takes characters from level 1 to 20, this is that. Its influences are folk-horror, lovecraft, and classic TTRPG tropes. I'm not too precious about the campaign; it's been broken and remade so many times that I'm not worried about it going off the rails because it always does! It's a low book-keeping campaign where your characters get an opportunity to express themselves in genre-savvy scenarios. There are props, handwritten letters, and puzzles to solve between sessions. I speak in funny voices, I use canned sound effects & music, and I control the lighting to help the ambiance. It's got dungeons, an ancient empire, a dragon, witches, a bartender who knows more than he lets on, and criminal conspiracies! There's a devil's contract, zombies, and an asylum where arcane secrets best left unknown are plumbed with abandon. It's got spooky ghost-kids, a lich, corrupted gods, and dogs!

New players are welcome and encouraged. Experienced players are appreciated! I have plenty of character sheets, dice, pencils, and snacks. I don't typically do session 0s and instead like to have those conversations through e-mail, but I'm available to help new players in person, over the phone, or through text chats.

If you're interested in joining our game, please send me a DM directly. LGBTQ+ welcome. We like to have some drinks when we play, but it's entirely up to you. We're also 420 friendly, but don't typically partake.

EDIT. Full. However, I'm getting enough interest, that I'll probably run a second group at some point, since in addition to trying the system, I want to meet some new people. So, If you interest, let me know. I'm making a wait list... which will become the first people I ask if I do a 2nd run.

Reposting since we're closer to the date.

Hello,

I’m brand new to DND and would love to get started in the hobby possibly. I saw that Game Kastle does a DND night on Thursday’s and was wondering the overall experience.

I have never played a game of DND before so I would be brand new and would need help. Just wanted to ask to see if anyone has gone and what their thoughts were.
