Learn a New Sci- Fi TTRPG – Free One- Shot of ESSENT! | Seeking Players and Curious Explorers Hi everyone! I’m looking for 3– 5 players to join me for a free one- shot or short adventure using the ESSENT System , a cinematic and tactical sci- fi TTRPG currently in open beta. Looking for players of all experience levels – especially 5e veterans looking for something fresh. What is ESSENT?
ESSENT is a 2d10-based, tactically rich tabletop RPG that blends the familiar structure of games like 5E with a galaxy of modern sci- fi flavor. The open-beta Core Rulebook is available for free on DriveThruRPG. Think:
Tense standoffs with bounty hunters
Void- powered mystics channeling cosmic energy
Androids, smugglers, alien outlaws, and fringe station politics
Tactical choices, cinematic combat, and fast character creation
Who is this for?
New players welcome!
No system knowledge required ( I’ll help you build a character & explain the rules)
LGBTQ+ friendly, inclusive, and collaborative tables only
Looking for curious players who enjoy both roleplay and bold, punchy action
What we’ll do:
Brief tutorial on the system & character creation
Explore a space station caught between factions
Choose your approach: negotiation, infiltration, or laser fire
Survive dramatic decisions and test your party’s synergy
When?
Scheduling flexible – I can run multiple groups depending on interest. Sessions will be over Discord voice and Roll20 for visuals and combat. Games will be held Monday evenings CST, or another weekday if we can find common availability. Interested?
