[LFP] Shadow of the Demon Lord

(This post was updated with info on May 5th) Game Listing Page: &nbsp; <a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/38372/shadow-of" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/38372/shadow-of</a>... System: Shadow of the Demon Lord (Designed by Robert Schwalb who has been a huge part of many games. This system has been compared to a trimmed down and updated Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 2e). Experience: None is needed. I will help you make a character, pregens are available, the custom sheets contain all of the rolls needed, and the entire group is helpful and friendly. All you need to do is show up ready to have fun and play! In fact, we love new & experienced gamers alike. Theme: Mature Epic Horror Fantasy, Deadly, Grim & Gritty Episodic One-Shot Campaign: This means that every game has a rotating cast of players pulled from the group and is a single self contained adventure. You do not need to know what happened in previous games or keep tabs on the world around you. That aside, all of the games are interconnected with common themes, re-occurring NPC's, villains, monsters, and stories. What happens in a previous game can, and will, impact future games. For example if the players fail to kill the goblin warchief, he will be back, and even more powerful & mad. Game Schedule: I aim to do at least 2 games a month, though have been averaging a bit more. We are currently moving onto game #10 after 3 months of play. Games are almost always on Saturday or Sunday nights 9pm-1am EDT. However, I will occasionally run a game on Monday morning around 10am-2pm EDT. Youtube: I do record the games for YouTube, not because I am famous, nor do I want to be. I also don't promote the games. I do this for a few simple reasons: 1) So that I can go back and build new adventures from things that happened in previous games, as well as return to locales and NPC's I have used; 2) so that the other players that did not participate in a session can watch what has happened in a game and see how it relates to the adventures they have been in, their characters, and other such references.
I really dig the setting and like the idea of an episodic campaign. Were you looking for a certain level of experience in your players? I've been playing D&D for a few years, but would be brand spanking new to Shadows of a Demon Lord.
Newbies, be it for the game or RPGing in general are more than welcome (and even encouraged!).&nbsp;
Then sign me up. Saturday evenings(EST) work great for me but I should be able to make anything after 6:30PM.
I was almost interested in it, but unfortunately I can't do voice chat through Roll20. I can only do it through Skype.
Sounds good, daveglhf, I will send an invite over to you shortly via PM. Sorry EvilChildren. I have nothing but problems with skype. Especially if I plan to record something, audio never syncs and I have to manually edit and re-align it.
This sounds fun! I'm familiar with the system and have the books but I haven't had too many chances to play. I'd be happy to join if you're still looking.
Great, Grant. I will PM you a link to the game. Thanks!!

Rock on! sounds like a great campaign - should you need any advice or assistance with making macros and such for the game drop me a PM - I think I have done most everything you could need :)
DK also made a character sheet for SoTDL for roll20 too.
Thanks DK, I might just hit you up on that! I have a few macros done, like attacks w/ banes and boones. Once I get everything sorted out, I will msg you and let you know where I am at. I saw there was a sheet in the repository, after I already wrote my own character sheet based on the detailed pc sheet. But that is ok. Still plenty of room for people, let me know if you want in on this!
Giving this a bump. I made a game listing where you can take a look and get more information. That is a bit easier that PMing all the infor over to potentially interested people. It should cover most everything, and you can decide from there if the game fits what you are looking for. Have fun and keep rolling high! <a href="https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/38372/the-plagues-of-nesses" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/lfg/listing/38372/the-plagues-of-nesses</a>
Updated the original post to relevant info. Still a handful of slots available if anybody is interested in this great system!
Giving this a bump up since it has been a while. Games are rolling along nicely now, and we will have another DM coming into the fold in the future, so more games will be available. Check out the top original post for more information and a link to the game description. Have fun!
We have a bunch of new games ready to go and can handle a new batch of players, so giving this a bump up. Swing on by if you are interested!
