The Denver RPG Group

UPDATE:
We have had such a positive response. We currently have 4 players, but we have room for one or two more. Email basementarcade@gmail.com

You are one of a group of budding adventurers off to find fame and fortune in the bustling seaside farming town of Golden Cove.

The Laughing Dragon Inn will be your initial base of operations for: the jobs board, the friendly staff, and the occasional mysterious cloaked figure.

... but first you have to get there!

This is a Dungeons and Dragons 5th Edition campaign with starting levels. This adventure will run every Wednesday starting at 6:35pm until close.

The first get-together will be a session 0 to collaborate on party content. My goal is to try and balance the three pillars of a good adventure, (Roleplay, Exploration, and of course, combat.)

Rules as written (RAW) will be tempered slightly with rules as intended, and of course, the rule of Cool.

As we may touch on mature themes from time to time, children are not recommended for this campaign. HOWEVER, new players are welcome. Players are expected to have access to the Players Handbook.

Some pre-generated PC sheets will be available.

All player characters are expected to be "Good" or "Neutral" alignment. Murderhobos will find yourself rolling a new character sheet before long, so you've been warned. Any gameplay exceptions will be covered in session 0, (like drinking a potion is only a bonus action for yourself, and a regular action for pouring it in the mouth of an unconscious teammate).

Lastly you, the players, are the stars. As the DM, it's neither my job to railroad you nor compete against you. It's a game, people, let's all have fun together.

[[Lawrence Brown, your Dungeon Master. ]]

This group is currently full. Sorry!

We're starting out with Ice Windale.

Listen up, Chums, I represent certain... interested parties and business requires some… unconventional solutions. The kind you supposedly excel at.

Beneath the glitter of neon and chrome Seattle's sprawl churns like a broken machine, dripping oil like blood and crawling with shadows and secrets.

Nothing new. Megacorps play their usual brand of dirty pool, but this time, it's gotten messy. That's where I come in, and that's where you come in.

I need a team who can disappear into the neon like a ghost in the Matrix. Deckers who can navigate the shadows of the datastream. Shamans who walk the astral plane with blinders off. And muscle – the kind that leaves a clean message even when things get messy.

Dealing it straight--This ain't some milk run. There will be claws to clip, shadows to navigate, and maybe a touch of magical mayhem. But the pay is fat enough to drown your sorrows in neo-yama. No questions asked. No secrets shared.

If you think you've got the chrome, the spells, or the sheer bloody audacity for this job, then respond to this post. Let's talk business.

Shadowrunners Wanted: Neon Anarchy Awaits!

Seattle sprawls out like a neon-drenched dreamscape, promising a better life through chip and chrome but darkness festers in its heart. Megacorps, run by dark hearts, secret cabals, venture capitalists or even powerful dragons exploit the shadows while replicants peddle influence on street corners. Are you ready to become a legend?

Strap in for a high-octane Shadowrun 2nd edition campaign dripping with Blade Runner vibes. We'll be running shadows, dodging razor-sharp security AI, and leaving a trail of glitches and bullets in our wake.

Do you dream of slinging spells and summoning spirits from the astral plane? Perhaps you prefer the thrill of high-tech gadgets and decking into the Matrix. Maybe you're a street samurai with a katana and a scorn for corporate greed.

Whatever your style, if you're ready to risk it all for a fat nuyen payout, join our experienced GM for a deep dive into the shadows of Seattle.

No experience necessary - fresh meat-- I mean--new shadowrunners welcome!

We'll meet every other Friday night, 6-10pm then fade back into the real.

Focus is on heavy RP, teamwork, and tactical coordination when the drek hits the fan.

Session 0 required to align group dynamics and set expectations

Location: Lakewood, CO, Bardo Coffee House on Wadsworth or FLGS depending on availability of tables

Hi Everyone,
We are looking for more players (and GM's) in our weekly virtual "tabletop" role-playing group (yup, we are once again online, thanks to the winter surge and Omicron. We'll likely get back around a table in the spring).
We meetup once a week on Saturdays, from about 11am to 5pm, occasionally there's some minor variation on the time, dependent on the schedules of our players but the game IS on Saturday around that time (please make sure that reliably works with your schedule before responding).
At the moment, we're in the midst of re-organizing our group, but we are playing Vampire the Masquerade 5th ed. and D20 Modern (on successive alternating weekends respectively). Btw, if you're in for one, you're in for both please (no cherry picking games, it's a headache).
Even if you’ve never played any RPG before it’s ok. Everyone in the group is willing to teach, so don’t worry if you don’t have any experience; that’s not as important as a desire to play.
If you're interested in getting more campaign/character creation details, please send me a private message (not a comment below, that won't be sufficient; there's a chance I'd miss it and that would suck). I'll arrange a "virtual" meet and greet session and then we can try to get you into the next upcoming game.
Please, don't RSVP the same day as the event and expect to be in the game. I vet all our potentials ahead of time; that way they're a good fit but also so they can familiarize themselves with the details of the campaign, the rules system and have a character ready to go on game day (that way no one is waiting on the new guy to finish up his character).
Cheers!

Post Script: For the MOMENT, I've been asked by both Storyteller and GM to put our recruiting on PAUSE. Our table is full for now, but will likely open up again as we lose players (which inevitably happens). For now, I am leaving the posting up and active and would ask that anyone interested continue to contact me. I AM still responding to players and will be contacting people as spots open back up.

THE AGE OF LEGEND Before science, before history, an era of magic existed in our world's dim past. Magic flowed freely, touching every aspect of the lives of men and women of the Name-giver races. It was an age of heroes; an age of fantastical deeds and mythical stories. It was the Age of Legend.

As the levels of magic rose, so did the dangers in the world. The rise of magic lured the Horrors from the depths of astral space—nightmarish creatures that devoured all life in their path. For four centuries, entire nations hid underground as the Horrors devastated their lands during the dark time that came to be called the Scourge.

A century ago, the people of Barsaive emerged from their sealed kaers and citadels. Trolls, dwarfs, elves, orks, and humans live side by side with exotic races: the lizard-like t'skrang, the small, winged windlings, and the earthen obsidimen. Fantastical creatures dwell once more in the forests and jungles. Arcane energies offer power to those willing to learn the ways of magic.

In the Age of Legend, bold heroes from all across Barsaive band together ready to fight for life and freedom against the remaining Horrors and the oppressive Theran Empire, which seeks to bend the rebellious province again to their yoke. Through noble deeds and sacrifice, the heroes of the world forge Barsaive's future, arming themselves for their daunting task with powerful magical spells and treasures.

Earthdawn is a roleplaying game set in a world of high adventure, high magic, terrible danger, and lurking horror.

• Note--game is now full

• The player Roster has reached (5) for this event is now closed.

• Wait List: While this group is currently full, I can add you to the wait list should someone drop out/cancel.

The endless dark of the universe is yours, if you but reach out to take it. Yield nothing—the void respects only strength." — Serren Travius, Rogue Trader

You are the crew in service to the new Rogue Trader Lord Captain Wolf Haarlock. You've helped him to claim his birthright--or to at least steal it away from anyone else more deserving--and have now set off to explore and expand the imperium as is your duty.

Political dealings, hostile acquisitions, assassinations, exploration and conquest are all under the purview of the Rogue Trader. Whatever enriches and ensures the holdings of the Haarlock dynasty is good, along with spreading the dominion of the God Emperor, of course.

***

You are an Acolyte in the service of the Emperor's Inquisition. You stand in the front line of a great and secret war where your duty is to hunt out the foul stench of heresy, the vile alien, and the twisted influence of Chaos. You will tread where others fear, venturing to distant planets, ancient space hulks and the unsavoury depths of the under-hive.

You will never know fame nor reward, yet if you stand resolute your deeds will be whispered to the God-Emperor of Mankind and your name will be revered for millennia.

***

Logistics notes:

Bring pencil, scratch paper, food/snack and drinks for yourself. Dark Heresy/Inquisitors handbook and dice are good to have but not required.

Please note that this game full and RSVP priority will be given to the following players: Jason (event host), Jon (Lord of Devil Duckies), Wendy, Toby Carpenter, John Ross. If you are interested in joining this group, please inquire by first by posting a comment on the event page. Thanks!

Campaign began in April 2013.

[LONG OVERDUE COVID-19 UPDATE]

We've not been meeting in person for a very long time, due to the need to protect our community from undue exposure during this pandemic. With over half a million deaths recorded now and no real end in sight, Monday Night Savages remains on hiatus as an in-person gathering event.

However, there IS a Discord Server where folks are encouraged to set up online, virtual gaming events, as well as "We've been mutually quarantined and are tested negative" meetups.

https://discord.gg/ukmNykS

At some point, we hope the vaccines reach enough of the population to warrant general in-person gatherings again. When that day comes, the Monday Night Savages will join once more for great RPG action!

----------

I realized it was high time to update this description, so here it is.

Monday Night Savages (called that because, when we started, it was mostly Savage Worlds games we had going) has evolved into all kinds of different games being run. We have numerous GMs, thankfully, and we have them rotating on an every-two-week basis. This means a given campaign or short series will run every other Monday for a while, while the opposite Mondays will feature a different set of games.

Your best bet to find out what games are in the rotation is to join our Facebook group. Let me (Sean Patrick Fannon) know on FB that you'd like in on that group. That's also a great group to talk about games you'd like to run or see someone run.

Prior to each Monday, the proposed games will be listed in the Conversation section below this announcement section; make sure you indicate your game choice below when it's posted.

AL adventures and if we have interest we can also run Dragon Heist Hardcover
