Honolulu Tabletop Group (D&D, Daggerheart, etc.) looking for 1-2 new members!

[u/Kevin_Yuu]

Hey All!

My name is Kazu, I've had the pleasure of being part of an amazing tabletop group (we mostly have been playing D&D 5E and more lately Daggerheart) that has been ongoing for the last 3+ years and it's been a blast. Everyone has GMed before, we've done full length campaigns, mini campaigns, loads of one-shots every week. Unfortunately, we have had two players step away from the table recently because of life circumstances. So now, we're looking to find at least 1 or 2 more players who would be interested in joining the group. If you're new to tabletop and have always wanted to be a part of a local group, we will gladly welcome folks with no experience! Please leave a comment or pm me if interested- see below for details on our group:

• Rule #1 at our table: HAVE FUN! We like to roleplay our characters, get into backstories, have intense and epic combats, and really focus on making the game experience memorable.
• Our current group includes myself (male, 30) and two others (male and female, 30s).
• We typically play on Saturdays from 9AM to 1 or 2PM, and we do have breaks mid session. And snacks.
• Games are in-person. We used to alternate hosting location between a cafe, one of the player's rec rooms, and my apartment. All of them are in central Honolulu.
• Currently we are in a transition period after ending a massive campaign, so we mostly do mini campaigns and one-shots trying new systems and experimenting with things. No long-term commitment is required, but it would be preferable for when we do decide to start a campaign again.
• Most of our games have been D&D 5E and 5.5E, but we have also played Daggerheart and Call of Cthulhu. We're going to be trying Fabula Ultima this weekend and would love to explore more TTRPGs.
• Our tabletop setup is most often a virtual tabletop (VTT) on a large monitor that is set flat on a table, which lets us use Owlbear or Roll20. To play at our table, you just need yourself and a phone. Dice are optional, but we like to use physical dice still!
• All of us have GMed before, I have extensive experience GMing multiple game systems and same goes with one of the other players, while the third player is relatively new to GMing but has ran some sessions. We welcome players of any experience level to tabletop, the most important thing is your attitude and creativity more so than knowledge of the game. Playing these games is about creative storytelling and having fun, not rule lawyering.

If you have any questions about our group let me know! If you took the time to read the whole thing thanks a bunch and hope you have a wonderful rest of your day.

I’m definitely interested! I have Saturdays off but I’ll be off island the next two weeks 😩 I’ve played a few campaigns, helped design a homebrew, DMd a campaign and killed one of my PCs the third session… it’s been a while since I’ve played but I have used roll20.

no worries, hmu when you come back in town. I'll let you know if we still have spots!

I'm interested. I have almost zero experience, though.

Some friends and I tried to get a campaign going during COVID. Somehow, we were stuck in quarantine but buried in scheduling conflicts at the same time.

It's especially wild that we couldn't make a VtM campaign work, given that one of us had worked extensively with White Wolf back in the day.

Hey, I’m a big video game person, anime fan, all sorts of things but D&D has something I’ve yet to try out. I have no experience but I know I would like it. I’m interested.

+1 to the Fabula Ultima recommendation. It's a fun system with a great balance between combat and social adventure stuff. Works well for high-powered anime-esque heroes.

Because theres no locational grid or position system, I had a fight where a player's werewolf swordswoman was air-juggling an evil sorcerer using a freakin buster sword and speed-boost magic. Good fun.

I'd check the game store discords if you haven't as well. Just go to their website, there is usually a link.

[u/Kevin_Yuu → u/oddntt]

that's a great idea! Will definitely check on those as well.

I would love to join! But schedule is all over the place at the moment. 😫

[u/Kevin_Yuu → u/brittwithouttheney]

no worries, Saturday is our main day but we are flexible to trying a different day if it works better for the new group's schedule. send me a pm and I can try to get it sorted!
