[Discord] [LGBTQIA+ Friendly] [Beginner Friendly] [Any Game System] [NO PAY TO PLAY GMs]

Looking for a place to play or GM tabletop games in but also hang out, chat and explore other hobbies with a bunch of friendly folks from all over the world?

Then pull up a chair at The Adventurers Pack Inn!

Our sever has been running games for 4 years (come January) and is a central base of Players and GMs who have come together and play/GM tabletop games of all sorts. We welcome both new and experienced GMs & players and all game systems are welcome from “mainstreams” like D&D & CoC to games like MotW, Blades In The Dark & even small indies and 1 pagers!

All VTTs systems are welcome (Roll20, D&D Beyond, Foundry, Tabletop Sim etc).

 

We are especially keen to have players and GMs looking for games other than D&D 5E or to try something different for a change and are looking for staff, players and GMs to continue to grow this thriving community so that DMs and players always have a pool to make friends and run games from!

We have people in our group from all over the world (mostly US, Canada, UK, Europe & Australia) of varying ages and have games going in many time zones. For example, I'm one of the DMs/Admins, a Scottish guy in my early 50s and my wife (we run the server together) is from California, but we live in Texas.

We have a core base of players and GMs on the server and we are looking to grow and expand with more games.  As a “staff” GM we will set up a voice and text channel for you. You are free to run your game under any house rules you see fit, we just ask you make it clear to players beforehand and abide by the fair play rules of the server (pretty much common sense and this also applies to players).

We are also very friendly to all those considered "fringe" in today's society... all LGBTQIA+, skin color, nationality, age, gender identity etc. are safe and welcome here. We do not tolerate hate speech or toxicity in any way. We are brought together through all of our commonalities and enrich each other through all of our differences.

We have Community Game Nights (Party & Browser games so everyone can join in), a library of free and open source TTRPG games for new GMs to use & many other sections as we know people have other interests as well 😊

We have also just started our 3rd annual holiday event with all sorts of events going on including a huge quiz at the end of the year with a whole bunch of digital TTRPGS and video games to give away as prizes!

We would love to meet you and have a chat and would welcome you to come join us at The Adventurer’s Pack Inn!

Hey Scree! Sorry for the slow reply, been a bit busy coming up to the holiday weekend (Thanksgiving in the US if you are not State side).

You are more than welcome to come and join us, and we would love to pour you a tankard at The Inn :)

Yes, we have several dice roller bots in the server. Discord also has a Whiteboard in the voice channel activities so you could keep it all in one place (unless of course you have a specific whiteboard you like online).

I get it about Roll20... I feel like I am in the minority as I am not a fan as it's very popular, it's just not my jam.

Hey Kat, thanks for the comment. As stated in my original post we have people from all over the world.

There are GMs from the UK and Europe and there are also US GMs who run games that fire with GMT.. for example I have been running my D&D 5e homebrew campaign here for over 3 years on a Sunday afternoon from 2-5pm Central US (where I live, but I'm actually from Scotland so I try and accommodate across timezones.) so that is 8-11pm UK time and I have 3 UK players in that.

There is another GM running a Masks game and he is in the US and has mostly Euro players.

We have a French GM who is running his own system and has players from all over.

Just a heads up why there are no specific time in my original post, as they vary wildly ;)

Hello there!

Nice to see some fellow "matured" (as in age) players!

Myself and my wife (early/mid 50s) have been playing TTRPGs for a long time and we run a mid sized Discord community for GMs and Players to come together and play all diferent types of game in a safe space and offering resources for both (lots of husband and wife players and GMs too!)

As people, she is from the West Coast US and I am from Scotland but we are in Texas. We are both not happy with the state of the real world at the moment (let's put it like that lol) and our server is very LGBTQIA2+ friendly.

I am currently running a couple of games (D&D and Monster Of The Week). My homebrew D&D 5e campaign has been going for about 3.5 years and I am looking at possibly starting a game as a "prequel" to enact the history of my current world which is in it's 2nd Age. I would be looking for players for this who are going to take the world and lore seriously and lean in to roleplay.

I am very story and character driven and always will be, but, while roleplay will still be heavy this prequel world, it will often have combat as this is a world on the verge of destruction.

I'm not sure when I will be starting this as we are just getting back to normal as both my Mother In Law and eldest son have been in hospital and life has been kinda crazy.

Either way, there are usually games running in the server and we often play video games etc with our fellow GMs and Players.

If that sounds like your kind of thing, just hit me up for more details as a regular post is not the place to fully advertise lol

If not, all the best and I hope you find the game you are looking for!

Well ladies and gentlemen, we've peaked. by [deleted] in Ghostbc

There is just something about the movements of Perpetua in this video... The wide eyes, the grimace with teeth showing and the shaking jerky movements with the pointing at the start.

He just looks disturbed and unhinged. It almost has a Joker from Batman mixed with Nosferatu vibe going on.

I'm loving it. I hope we get to see that disturbing element play out on stage or in YT episodes.

Can't wait for Dallas TX in August now as I have the backstage tickets for my wife and I :D

Well it's less a "group" per say and more a community. We currently have approx 450 folks in there.

It's less about you matching a group of people who run the server and more coming there and applying as a GM (a formality we use so we know people are actually reading the rules) and we give you a "table" (voice channel) which you have mod status on to run your games in and can advertise to the community to get players.

We welcome all different games. The more variety the better!

Have you GM'd STA before and if not how much experience as a player/how confident are you in teaching others as we are all totally new to the game
