Hello everyone! I've been posting some content for my work-in-progress tabletop roleplaying game now for some time, and I think I'm finally ready to start a new virtual campaign with people online.

If you're interested, please take the time to fill out the form linked above and I'll get back to you if I think we would vibe.

Read after the cut for a summary of the setting and the system. More details and a brief overview of character creation are available in the form itself.

Looking forward to meeting you!

Immortal Freedom is a science fantasy epic set primarily within a small star cluster on the edge of Artilum Tem—an irregularly shaped galaxy beyond the Milky Way. The residents of the star cluster have access to advanced, far-future technology and powerful magic. Futuristic vehicles, cyberpunk cities, sapient alien life, faster-than-light travel, holographic technology and resonating magical crystal power sources are just some of the wonders considered mundane by most people in this world. The world is also ever-expanding, as major events such as first contact with new alien species usher in new eras of progress.

Immortal Freedom: The Roleplaying Game is a science fantasy roleplaying game meant to be played with a dedicated Game Master (also known as a GM) and one or more players—though a group of three to five players to a single GM is ideal. The game is primarily experienced through a series of scenes strung together to build a narrative.

Monster of the Week Campaign: LOOKING FOR PLAYERS!

[ID: an edited picture of a cathedral and a city. The title is “Bleston���. End id]

Hello! Have you been interested in playing Monster of the Week but haven’t gotten the chance yet? Would you not mind terribly if your Keeper was also someone who had never played MOTW? (everyone wants to play but no one wants to GM, you know how it is)

Well, have I got the game for you: I am looking for 4 to 5 players for a brand-new campaign, no previous knowledge or experience required!

WHAT: A campaign of monster-hunting and adventure in the superstitious (and with good reason) vaguely-European city of Bleston. You’ll end up working with a small group already established in the city that is desperate for new members. Dedicated to protecting the city’s vulnerable and mostly-unaware citizens, you’ll have to face off against monsters and supernatural baddies of every genre and type!

HOW: Through Discord video/voice chat. If you can just do voice and not video, that’s cool too.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED: The free resources available at Evil Hat’s website. They have character sheets for the standard Playbooks and the Basic Rules we’ll be using. Dice aren’t really needed since I’ve got a Dice Rolling Discord bot, but I wouldn’t really mind if you did roll physical dice (2 D6).

WHEN: Aiming for once a week. Can be flexible with schedule depending on everyone’s needs. Proposed time(s): Wednesday at 5 PM CST OR Saturday at 3 PM CST.

OTHER QUESTIONS:

Do I have to attend each session? : Preferably yes, but with your permission we can have your character sit out a session if necessary. If too many people aren’t available we can reschedule or cancel.

How long will sessions last? : 2-3 hours. Session 0.5 (as I’m calling the first meeting) will probably be on the longer side. I don’t expect monster Hunts to last more than a couple of sessions.

When will Session 0.5 be? : Let’s aim for the week of May 6 – will keep this updated as necessary.

Do I need to come with a set character idea/filled out character sheet/knowing everything about the game?  : No. Part of the MOTW character creation process is collaborative and should be done together as a group. We will be starting with that as well as going over the rules and mechanics for those less familiar. I would recommend to have a general idea of the character you want to create and you can certainly call dibs on a Playbook once we get a group more or less together.

I have a specific trigger/phobia/squick/etc. Will this be involved in the game? : Please feel free to ask privately ahead of time about things like this – I totally understand! I will warn in general that the campaign will heavily feature fire themes, and the first Hunt will have spiders involved.

I want to customize a Playbook/Move/etc. : We’ll talk later about this, but the rules are explicitly stated in the Manual to be up for interpretation and customization, so this is totally on the table.

Is this campaign going to be adult-themed? : I don’t plan on any particularly graphic or adult content, but I would prefer 18+ players, sorry.

Who the heck are you? : Glad you asked! My name is Chloe. I have some experience in D&D 5e but I’ve never played MOTW, and I’ve never GM’d before. I’ve been listening to TAZ Amnesty and thought it would be fun to participate or run a campaign of my own!

How do I get in on this action? : Simply DM me on here (owlaholic68) and/or reply to this post! Reblogs are also appreciated as I’m not sure how to best get the word out. PLEASE REPLY by MONDAY MAY 1.

Beautiful and Awesome book! This RPG gaming system has become my favorite, I still love AD&D 1e and Call of Cthulhu, but this system combines both of what I love about both of those. The book is a little smaller than I thought it would be, the artwork is beautiful, this book is written for adults 18 years or older. I will still play AD&D and Call of Cthulhu as well. Here is a quote I have taken form the Lamentations of the Flame Princess website that shows that you can use this rpg gaming system with a lot of different gaming systems. "Rules-wise, LotFP belongs to the "Old School Renaissance" family of games that uses the Open Game License to recreate game rules of the late 70s/early 80s, with LotFP's particular twisting of those rules flattening out the power level a bit and emphasizing a more horrific and go-for-the-throat attitude. A PDF version of the full rules without any of the game's artwork is available here for you to use for your own purposes. (The full-version PDF includes all of the art, while the physical version is a beautiful high-quality artifact in its own right.) Go to Amazon

This is an excellent and streamlined take on Dungeons and Dragons This is an excellent and streamlined take on Dungeons and Dragons, with a weird horror vibe- which is mostly conveyed by the beautiful and horrific artwork. Much less fiddly rules to get in the way of your gaming experience, yet it has everything you need to make a great game. Highly recommended! Go to Amazon

Excellent Old-school RPG I purchased this book as a Pathfinder player. I've spent several years in the more modern d20 system and style of play, and recently I've wanted to branch out. This book is perfect for that. It's a small and portable book with excellent quality of binding and printing with some very evocative art within. The style and art push toward a very dark style of adventure, but the rules are versatile. Additionally, the purposeful omission of a monster manual helped to push my creativity as a dm. Go to Amazon

Awesome little book The only RPG book that I've ever read cover to cover, and I've been playing RPGs for over 20 years now. Awesome little book. Perfect game for busy adults who don't have time to waste digging through heavy tomes to clarify obscure rules interactions. Puts the focus back on the roleplaying, with just enough mechanical depth to throw a curve ball into things when necessary. Very glad I bought this. Go to Amazon

Good lean system I am only giving this 3 stars instead of 4 because it has no examples for anything and the instructions are not entirely clear about some of the rules. Go to Amazon

Five Stars Well worth the price. Go to Amazon

An Endzeitgeist.com review This massive core rule book clocks in at 176 pages, 1 page front cover, 1 page inside of front cover, 2 pages of editorial, 2 pages of ToC, 1 page SRD, 1 page inside of back cover, 1 page back cover, leaving us with 167 pages of content, so let's take a look! Go to Amazon

Five Stars Great Product. Very fun. Go to Amazon

A bad book for LFP beginners Five Stars Four Stars OSR for the weird ones Four Stars Back to basics. A mixed bag.

RPG Recruitment Post

Hey there! Martin/Waffles/Maddwaffles/Darthie™/etc. here! Haven’t spoken as much about it on THIS blog, but I love to roleplay and GM Tabletop RPGs!! Well, lately I’ve been wanting to expand the group that I play with (3 of my best friends are currently who I play with) for the fun times!

Currently our favorite system is Bleach D20 Classless (bleachd20.proboards.com) but we all know how to play other stuff, and have been known to one-shot, or start up games in PF, D&D, WOD, and the like. If you’d be interested definitely shoot me an IM or check out one of the recruitment threads I’ve hosted on Roll20 for our specific games we’re running these days!
