You'll get to choose from famous mid-level D&D monsters like the Cloaker, Xorn, Carrion Crawler, a pack of Skeletons, or play a Wraith. Meet Saturday for Roll20CON in our open-table 2E Tavern game. We are playing a Reverse Dungeon! You get to play the monsters. :) Can you join just to observe?

Cerulean said: The reverse dungeon idea is such a treat! I absolutely would love to participate in Saturday's game. Awesome. You're in, Cerulean (a manticore player from our playtest). &nbsp;Other members of the group were talking after the Playtest and we want to game more with you. I plan to send you a PM to check on some other game day openings soon too. The 2E Tavern is all about playing a one-shot and meeting people to spin-off other longer campaigns!

I had fun with the group and look forward to gaming more with you soon.
I'll be about three hours late since I DM my regular game at this time.
Hello, If you still have room I would love to give it a shot. Please let me know.

Cerulean, J. Rook, Gargamond, Luren the Raven -- you're all IN! Doublecheck the main page of the game to see the Next Game Time listed in terms of your personal time zone. &nbsp; Enter the tabletop Saturday as soon as you're available around that time. &nbsp;Early arrivals can hang out and chat. &nbsp;Late arrivals (Gargamond & any of the Solynod Hex crew) will be accepted and still get a chance to enter the game and play.&nbsp; Slots still open!

All-Right! Put me in Gold! (If there's still spots, sorry - just saw this...) P.S. I'll play anything, even a disabled elderly kobold with an aversion to blood!

How long do you suspect the session will last? I could be anywhere from 1-4 hours late plus I have another D&D (potentially) afterwards that I would need to attend. I like the game concept very much though!

Byle, LeberMac, Tyrone, you're in. Those who can show-up at the proper Start Time listed under Next Game Time, you'll get the first pick of monster-character to play. &nbsp;Those who show up later can still get a monster and start playing whenever you log-in. Staggered starts are okay for this, the way DM Tyler and I set it up. We'll probably play for 4 hours plus, and then if we are still rolling we might reset and start again. It's also an open Tavern day for just hanging out and chat about D&D, before & after game. So yeah, Tyrone , come over and log-in during your window of time. We should be playing. When you get into the game, first you'll get to choose your monster. Next you roll for your monster's starting position (what room of the dungeon) and start playing / prowling from there!
This sounds like a blast! Sign me up if you still have a spot. I do play in Leber's Saturday night game, but we don't start until 7:30 pm EST so it sounds like this should slot in nicely to the schedule. I can't wait to make those pesky adventurers suffer for invading my home!
Unfortunately I will be in Indiana, this sounds like it will be fun though...&nbsp;
hey all i will be running my 2e campaign then. but if you want to "lurk" be my guest: This will start at 1pm Eastern (-4/-5) GMT <a href="https://app.roll20.net/join/1461415/-zxL1Q" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/join/1461415/-zxL1Q</a>
I'm not able to use voice chat on Discord, could I still play?
i see 3pm is listed for today(sunday) i am in if any1 runs something
Had fun! Too bad I wasn't able to keep going but I'd already kept my players waiting for their DM for 30 minutes and was getting "WTF you AT?" messages. I am sorry I could not bring my lightning-wand-wielding ogre to bear on more of those stoopid adventurers. Hopefully I brought a few of them down... "I'm bad, and that's good. I will never be good, and that's not bad. There's no one I'd rather be, than me."
i am in but&nbsp; cant figure out how too put name on list

Had a great time! Wish I could have stayed for longer. Shmoopie the Ogre still looking for his first kill. *edited to add: And he got one! At least one pesky adventurer got squashed flat before Shmoopie was overwhelmed.
The "Grimch", who was accustomed to just rolling with his little goblin homies, was very impressed by the combined powers of the other "monsters" whose home was being terrorized by the evil invaders, the hoomans. These foul hoomans came to their beloved home from the world above. Grimch suspected these hoomans were just coming to try to infect the world with their radical beliefs of their fanatical race. They follow a crazy, over-sized, bloodthirsty gnome, one they ironically call, "Saint Nickless". Saint Nickless, a horrible being, preys upon the innocent minds of the young, and twists them into valuing nothing but wealth. His teachings compel the hoomans to become greedy beings, picking on the youth, ones who are easily addicted to seduce them with sweets and then eventually turning them into materialistic, bloodthirsty zealots, maniacs who go on their unholy crusades, raiding the innocent homes of other races. These hoomans try to classify anyone who does not follow their idealogical path as "monsters". Well, these hoomans will think twice before coming back to our home. The so-called monsters defended their beloved home from the hooman cultists and prevented the mad gnome from infecting their offspring with their evil Krizmiz spirit!
Had a blast! Great streams, great friends, good times!
I enjoyed running the game for the first half of the day.&nbsp; You were all fun to play with.&nbsp; Looking forward to next year.

Reverse Dungeon in the Roll2E Tavern for Roll20CON was so much fun! More screenshots, videos, and reviews will be posted. Anyone want to play it again, or anyone who missed it and wants to try? We might schedule another round, whether it's next CON or sooner.
Had a great time, looking forward to next time, thanks Gold!

Hi everyone who donated to TakeThis.org through the Tavern's Reverse Dungeon game, you may not have gotten the Charity Art Pack from Roll20 because I didn't send you the Roll20 link to go through for donations. I gave the direct link to TakeThis because I thought that would work; it explained the charity better, gives people access to the mental health resources there, and because the TakeThis website offered more payment method options like Patreon). In conclusion, as promised by me the Tavern Proprietor and DM, I will followup with Roll20 and ask to get the Charity Art Pack distributed to the donors from here, and if they disagree then I will buy/license/get permission from my artist friends to make our own Charity Art Pack which I will send to the donors, legally. I know there were at least 5-6 people and we collectively gave more than $70 to the Charity for mental health: TJ, myself, Tyler, several others who I will go back into the game and confirm. It was those who got to CHOOSE your monster in the game. Love, DM GOLD

Luckily, I sent my donation directly to TAKETHIS via PayPal and got my Roll20 CON charity art pack, so be sure to omit my name from the list. Also, I’d be glad to help create the charity art pack for our communitiy; up to one map and one token.
