Abomination Vaults 5e
Advanced 5th Edition Adventure Path
Enter the megadungeon! Evil stirs in the depths of the Abomination Vaults, a sprawling dungeon where the evil sorcerer Belcorra Haruvex attempted to raise an army of monsters hundreds of years ago. Brave heroes must venture into a dungeon full of beasts and traps to prevent a spiteful villain from rising again.
Rules System: Advanced 5th Edition Level Up
Theme: Megadungeon
Starting Level: 1stThe Abomination Vaults Adventure Path begins near the small town of Otari on the southern shore of the Isle of Kortos. A robust and spoiler-free description of the town can be found in the player’s guide. While this gazetteer does mention things that aren’t frequently discussed in polite company (such as the rough crew that hangs out at the Crook’s Nook), the contents of this gazetteer are considered common knowledge among Otari’s citizens. It’s possible for some (or even all) of the heroes to hail from Otari, but that isn’t necessary. Although most of the campaign’s action takes place in the dungeon about a half hour to the north in the swampy Fogfen, the heroes will return to Otari many times and should come to rely on its people.
The heroes might or might not know each other, but all of them should have a friend in common: the town’s eccentric oddities merchant, Wrin Sivinxi. Wrin’s mixture of tiefling and elven ancestry is impossible to miss: her eyes are devoid of pupils, small ram horns curl around her elven ears, and her fingertips sparkle with motes of glittering light. Wrin is more than a collector of unusual items and occult lore; she’s a scholar of the stars who possesses curious foresight about strange events (perhaps this foresight drove her to build a friendship with the heroes in the first place).
In any case, once Wrin collects the heroes to tell them of a strange light, she has seen around Gauntlight, the mysterious inland lighthouse deep in the Fogfen, the campaign can begin!
The posting rate for this game will be an average of two to three times per week. Some days there will be more posts than others, but this campaign will be run at a leisurely pace. If you do not post once within 48 hours during combat, actions will be taken for you. I reserve the right to eject from the campaign anyone who has not posted in a week without prior warning of absence.
I expect players to engross themselves in the roleplaying element and contribute interestingly to the story and for this campaign I also favor longer posts with detail and emphasis on the growth of the characters over just posting to meet the requirement.
I also travel occasionally, but this rarely affects my posting. I will be selecting a total of five players. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them.
Application Deadline: May 25th, 2024 (Midnight CST)
Character Creation & Play Guidelines: This document has everything you need to participate in one of my games. Includes rules for character creation guidelines and much more.
Character Creation and Play v3.1 - Files - Myth-Weavers
Character Submissions: You will also need to start a thread in the application thread for your submission.
If you have any questions about my rules for character building, setting, or any thoughts about character backgrounds, or to request that I review your character then you can do so by using the links below.
Generating Ability Scores: The first post in your character thread should contain your ability score generation and nothing else. You should state if you are taking the static array, using the point buy method, or rolling for your stats. If you decide to roll for your stats, then you may roll four 6-sided dice and sum up the three highest rolls. Repeat this process six times to generate your stats. If you are new to Myth-Weavers a guide to how to use the dice roller is available.Dice Tower - Articles - Myth-Weavers
Allocate these rolled numbers or picked numbers if doing point buy or static array, to your desired ability scores by noting them accordingly in the first post. If you chose the roll method, you must take the stats that the dice gods have given you, good or bad, that is the hand in life that you have been dealt. Some of the best heroes come from a tough beginning and overcoming adversity.
Character Thread Template: You are welcome to use the following template. It is designed to include all pertinent details about your character for quick reference by both the Narrator and yourself as the player. By keeping this post current in your character thread, you eliminate the need for a separate Myth-Weavers character sheet. Ensure that your posting template provides a link to your character thread for convenient reference. The character template should be the second post in your application.
Character Posting Template: The third post in your application should be your posting template. I have created one that you can feel free to copy and use if you like. (See Character Thread Template link above.)

GM Info: Hello! I'm Billy Watford. I've been a GM (DM, Storyteller, etc.) for about 35 or 37 years, and I've been gaming even longer. Over the years, I've conducted what seems like hundreds of adventures through Paizo, WotC, TSR, and I currently have many games ongoing on Myth-Weavers, some of which have lasted for years.
My GMing style leans more towards crafting a compelling story rather than maximizing the exploitation of rules. I appreciate characters that are interesting from the start, but I'm particularly fond of characters that evolve throughout the game. Avoid presenting me with one-dimensional characters that repeatedly exploit a single annoying trait, and in return, I'll refrain from introducing a tarrasque into the scenario. Agreed? Agreed.
What kind of player am I NOT looking for?
Power Gamers (not sorry) and rules lawyers (really not sorry). Having gamemastered for many years, I am still new to this specific system. Therefore, I am not looking for players who are solely interested in exploiting new rules or merely min/maxing their characters. From what I understand, this is much more challenging in Advanced 5th Edition Level Up. Should your character meet an untimely end in the dungeon, please be gracious, and we will get you situated with a new one as promptly as we can.What kind of players AM I looking for?
Ah, this is promising. I'm not in search of mere players; I seek a cast of characters. I desire individuals dedicated to advancing a compelling plot—those who hinder the story's flow are my pet peeve. I yearn to witness your character's evolution. I envision the transformation of a self-centered street urchin into a daring hero, a disinterested bureaucrat into the fierce embodiment of divine retribution. LET'S DO THIS. Enter the Abomination Vaults, where your saga unfolds.I'm also in search of individuals who can adhere to the basic rules of grammar. That said, I can be quite forgiving of errors. However, for the love of God, in a system where edits are possible minutes, days, or weeks later... please take some pride.
I look forward to your applications and good luck!
PLEASE READ THE PLAYERS GUIDE ALL THE WAY THROUGH AND THEN RE-READ IT PRIOR TO STARTING THE APPLICATION PROCESS!! IT WILL HELP YOU TREMENDOUSLY!!!

Dirge for the Lost: A Story of the Dead
Dear Evelyn,
I never thought I’d say this, but I miss your constant nagging. You were always the one reminding us to ration our supplies, to check the perimeter, to keep our guard up. But now that you’re gone, it feels like we’ve lost our compass. I remember the time we argued about whether to let that family into our camp. You were adamant that they were trouble, but I insisted on giving them a chance. Turns out, you were right. They stole from us in the dead of night, leaving us more vulnerable than ever. I wish I had listened to you more often.
There’s an emptiness in the camp now that you’re not here to fill it with your fire-sharp tongue and sharper wit. We might have butted heads more times than I can count, but I respected you, Evelyn. You were the glue that held us together, even when we were falling apart. And now that you’re gone, I can’t help but feel lost.
I hope wherever you are, that you can find some quiet to finally read your stupid fucking cowboy romance books that you carried with you all the time. Now I'm carrying them because they remind me of you, I even read through a couple of them. I have no idea why you liked them so much, they're all crap - but I guess it was just something to help you turn your brain off and shut out the rest of the world...
Rest in peace, Evelyn. We’ll do our best to carry on without you, but it won’t be easy. You were the heart and soul of this group, and we’ll never forget you.
Dear Luke,
I’ll be honest – I’m not mourning your death. In fact, part of me is relieved that you’re finally out of the picture. You were nothing but a burden to the group, always complaining and never pulling your weight. We tolerated you because we had to, for little Amy's sake, not because we wanted to. You were a bully, plain and simple, beating on her and anyone else when you didn't get your way, and I’m glad I won’t have to deal with you anymore.
I remember the time we were low on food, and you insisted on eating more than your fair share by stealing from the communal food supply. You didn’t care that others were going hungry; all you cared about was satisfying your own selfish desires. Making sure that number one was taken care of. Well, guess what? Now you’re the hungry one. Hungry forever, because you're a walking, rotting corpse that's missing its lower jaw and left leg. I think death liberated you; allowing you to finally show the monster that you were on the inside all along.
You were a liability from the moment you joined our group, and I’m not sorry to see you go. You were a coward, Luke, and now you’re paying the price for your disgusting chicken-shit behaviour. I won’t shed a tear for you; you didn’t deserve my pity when you were alive, and you certainly don’t deserve it now that you’re a freak.
Don’t expect me to think back on you or miss you fondly – you’re not worth the effort. I hope you burn in hell.
Dear Simon,
I never told you this when you were alive, but I envied your optimism. No matter how bleak things got, you always found a reason to smile. It annoyed me at times, I won’t lie. There were moments when I wanted to shake some sense into you, to make you see the harsh reality we were living in. But now that you’re gone, I find myself missing that unyielding hope of yours.
Remember the day we stumbled upon that abandoned bookstore? You were like a kid in a candy store, browsing through the shelves as if each book held the key to our salvation. I scoffed at your enthusiasm, dismissing it as foolishness. But now, as I sit alone in the darkness, I wish I had shared in your excitement. Maybe then, I wouldn’t feel so empty.
Your laughter used to fill the silence, reminding us that there was still joy to be found in this desolate world. I took it for granted, assuming that you would always be there to lighten the mood. But now that you’re gone, the silence is deafening. And I don't know if I have the drive to continue on any further...
I... I think I may be seeing you soon Simon, sooner than everyone else thinks. They're stronger than I am, but you were the strongest of us all. If even this nightmare took you away from us, if even this fucking hellhole beat you down and snatched your life away, then how are we going to make it? Huh? How?!
I... I pray to God it's better in the next life, and that I can hear your laughter once again once... once I cross over.
The Walking Dead is a popular post-apocalyptic horror franchise created by writer Robert Kirkman and originated as a comic book series first published in 2003 by Image Comics, expanding into various forms of media throughout the years, including a highly successful television series, novels, video games, and merchandise. Free League Publishing, a renowned Swedish tabletop role-playing game publisher, developed "The Walking Dead Universe RPG" in collaboration with Skybound Entertainment, the company behind "The Walking Dead" franchise using a more abstract rendition of their Year Zero Engine. The game was designed by Nils Hintze (Tales From the Loop, Vaesen) and Joe Lefavi (ALIEN, Blade Runner) as producer and brand manager, along with Free League's co-founders Mattias Haake (Symbaroum) and Tomas Härenstam (ALIEN, Blade Runner) who serve as editors and project managers.
In "The Walking Dead Universe RPG", you'll be thrust into a grim and perilous world where survival is paramount, and every decision can mean life or death. You'll step into the shoes of a survivor struggling to stay alive amidst the chaos of a world overrun by reanimated corpses, referred to by many names but commonly known as "walkers" in the show. But this game isn't purely about surviving and isn't just about avoiding the undead; it's about navigating a complex web of interpersonal relationships, moral dilemmas, and the constant struggle for resources in a world teetering on the brink of collapse. This is a game about decisions, and what effects your decisions will have for everyone in your survivor's life - and your survivor themselves. The challenges you'll face are never trivial, and they can appear from just about anywhere - from the lack of essential supplies, internal conflicts within your group, an approaching herd of undead hungering for your flesh and blood, or another hostile group of survivors looking to take what's yours.
There are two (technically three with solo play) ways to play the game - campaign mode and survival mode. Survival mode scenarios act essentially as one-shot adventures that immediately thrust you into a rather acute problem with pre-determined situations and characters - putting you right into a dramatic and dangerous encounter that must be handled immediately. Campaign mode, however, works akin to a creative writing session where the story is not predetermined and the goals, choices, and consequences that your characters create and endure while struggling to survive create a storyline. There are two ways to run a campaign as outlined, free play and seasonal play. Free play means playing session after session until something happens that makes it evident that the story has come to an end; it's more freeform and loose, providing a lot of freedom for all involved in how they'd like to structure the game. Seasonal play is more structured and contained, with an overall plan for a beginning, middle, and end that incrementally escalates as time goes on, with multiple seasons occurring throughout the length of the campaign. Each new season brings the chance for a fresh start, as new players can come and go - while current / remaining players can decide to continue playing their survivors (if they live) or start fresh with new ones, with new issues and challenges for the group to face. For this game, we'll be playing in a seasonal campaign format, allowing for a sense of progression and structured development while also providing dynamic opportunities for new beginnings and fresh challenges that compound over each other as time goes on until the big finale of the season.
Mechanically, the game functions in a very similar manner to other Year Zero Engine games like ALIEN, Mutant: Year Zero, Blade Runner, Tales From the Loop, etc. As a core mechanic, you roll a number of six-sided dice decided by the value of your base attributes and your skill combined. The more competent you are, the more dice you get to roll. Any roll of 6 indicates a success, and multiple successes will trigger powerful bonus effects. Rolls can be pushes, i.e. re-rolled, at the risk of the situation deteriorating from risky and bad to worse and perilous. The system itself is fairly abstract and focused moreso on the narrative 'role-play' end of the spectrum compared to 'crunchier' Free League games such as Twilight: 2000, but it is certainly brutal and unforgiving - capturing the essence of an undead apocalypse well.
I'm looking for five to six players to star as the central characters in the first season of Dirge for the Lost, set amidst the backdrop of the Southern Rocky Mountain region roughly a month and a half after the collapse of society. I am also looking for a Co-GM to assist with the running of the game and having to take over regarding a planned absence on my part. Backup players or applicants not chosen can continue to play in a solo or semi-solo capacity upon request, which I would be happy to oblige! Players do not need any localized knowledge of the region or lore knowledge of The Walking Dead, although that is great if you do. Experience is not required, although some familiarity with the general Walking Dead Universe is preferred.I intend this game to aim for a literate roleplay experience, meaning that posts should consist roughly between 2 - 5 paragraphs in response which should be interspersed with interactions, conversations, and inner dialogue; at minimum however, it should be a semi-literate experience with at least one paragraph responses; a paragraph being at least three sentences and an interaction with the game world. Due to the type of experience that I'm looking for in posts, a posting rate won't necessarily be defined or enforced as we all have those moments in Play-by-Post where we're waiting for a response to another post from a certain player or awaiting for the GM to move the scene along. We're also all busy people, myself included, and simply enjoy games like this to have fun. Players should, however, be actively engaged in the setting and in the narrative in whatever way they can, and should want to be a part of this game.
This game is intended to fall within the realm of a 'soft-R' rating. While we may explore mature themes, any content of a severe adult or graphic nature will be handled with sensitivity. Scenes of this nature will either 'fade to black' or be alluded to in a manner that maintains the comfort and enjoyment of all players. As with other Free League games, and The Walking Dead especially, this game will be a mix of faster paced action interspersed with player-led RP scenes; a focus on roleplaying and immersed horror writing being favored more, as combat in this system can be incredibly brutal - with one dice roll determining the fate of your character either from a walker bite or a bullet to the brain. Players in this game need to maintain the understanding that your characters will more likely than not die, often in horrific ways as is often the case in The Walking Dead media. That being said, life is precious, and I prefer that characters are more than cardboard cutouts. I encourage each player to think about character ideas and options and be prepared for multiple characters, with some depth, over the course of the campaign seasons.
Posts for this game will be made and hosted on Myth-Weavers, with OOC communication and coordination on scenes or roleplaying segments being done both through Myth-Weavers and Discord. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions and/or concerns, and I hope to see you in the game and making wonderful, terrifying stories together!

DungeonWorld: Sea of Grass
Welcome to the Sea of Grass. This game is a DungeonWorld, Jumanji/D&D cartoon-style of story, in that teens from our world have been pulled into a mostly abandoned, post-apocalyptic-feeling fantasy world as their favorite fantasy characters. The PCs will be older teens (16-18), and the remaining NPCs in the group (~4) may be younger. Since this is PbP, the scenario will be a pretty short, linear adventure (lasting for 4-6 months of real time) of trying to do the thing to get home. Characters will level quickly. The game will begin when the characters all wake up in the fantasy world as their favorite fantasy character.

Sinners
Who are you? You are a Sinner
And what is a Sinner? Well, that will take some time to explain.
Gamana, the world where we live, hasn’t always been like this, 817 years ago, at the end of the war of the gods, it was profoundly and irreversibly changed, most of the gods died and the things they had created disappeared with them; Edia and Ytar, the two remaining deities picked the broken pieces and repaired the world.
Every living being own their existence to Edia’s and Ytar’s efforts and for this we are eternally thankful but the world we live in now is not without problems and challenges, everything come at a price.
With the death of the gods, the magical energy disappeared, killing all the creatures that depended on it and bringing the world into chaos, Edia replaced the source of power, saving the day, but in doing so tied the world’s magic to one of her domains: curse.
Every act of magic inflict a curse, crafting a magical item could curse the caster, the item, or the shop, healing someone may curse the receiver, or the healer, creatures of magic develop/spread curses.
Over time people got used to this new way of magic, studied it's rules and finally adapted.
Scholars rank curses by intensity: low, medium, high and supreme , if two curses conflict with each other the one of lower rank become dormant, until they are no longer in conflict, the exception is a supreme curse, occasionally called Sinner Curse, which make all those inferior dormant all the times.
Through a ritual a person can dedicate their soul to Edia, embrace a sin and be granted the ability to absorb curses, this paired with supreme curses gave life to the figures known as Sinners.
Sinners are bearers of a supreme curse who dedicated their souls to Edia, becoming able to absorb inferior curses without ill effects, each kingdom handle sinners in their own way, in some places they are nothing more than servants, in others they are highly regarded for their services, in any case they have a key role in the modern society.
Monsters, that’s another problem that plague the life of the inhabitants of this world, there are plenty of monsters and they too are subject to curses, even more than people, they tend to acquire particularly quirky or crippling curses due to their strong connection with Edia, who is the goddess of monsters, sins and curses; since many monsters can spread curses like a disease, or carelessly cast magic, Sinners are often tasked to deal with them, not necessarily with violence, after all Sinners too have a strong connection with Edia and they can, sometimes, reason with monsters.
You are a Sinner of the kingdom of Barazin, currently living in the port city of Bewold at the south west border of the kingdom, in your country each Sinner formally belong to the Order of the Orange Glove, a knightly order created by the monarchy which allow the kingdom to call them when needed while granting them status and some degree of legal protection. Sinners are free to manage their own lives and many become professionals, running their own “cleaning” business, you are one of them, a particularly lucky, connected or successful one as you are a member of the Seven Roses, a prestigious and wealthy society of Sinners, one of the most influential in Bewold, however unfortunate events threaten to destroy the society, all your hard work and you.
Game elements:
Themes: Shades of gray morality, discrimination, everything come at a price, politics, comedy.
Starting level: 6
Map: will likely use roll20 for that

A Star Wars Text Adventure (Game #1) - 'A Matter of the Mind'
Hello there. 😀 Welcome to the galaxy!
Game One - 'A Matter of the Mind'
I’ve been running this specific campaign with friends for over ten years, starting way back in 2013. It will act as our 'test adventure'.
To start, I will introduce the basic mechanics of the game as we play. However, the original rule system will eventually be explained in the 'Rules & Guides' section.
We're using a Freeform Game System, so the rules will evolve significantly over the course of the adventure.
How does it work?
The game runs like a classic text adventure. Therefore, a name for each location will always be provided, followed by a simple description of the environment.
Gameplay is designed to generate an interactive fiction vibe. Hopefully, emulating this 'retro feel' will stir up nostalgia and inspire discussion. These out-of-character talks can be posted in the 'Session Zero' section.
This campaign is intended to remain a work in progress. Suggestions and requests are always welcomed, so alterations will absolutely be considered. Ideal changes will be made as needed, for flexibility has been crucial since the game’s inception.
So what’s the catch?
Ultimately, this game will be separated from others by character control. The main protagonist will be controlled by ALL players. This means text commands will be accepted from anyone and everyone. Hence, there’s no need to create a character before playing.
Occasionally, players will be asked to choose particular details about the 'shared' protagonist. These specifics will be added to the game accordingly. Controlling the adventurer can be thought of as a 'team effort'.
As mentioned, flexibility is key. It's quite possible for players to request control of specific characters. For example, an ally our adventurer meets along the way can be designated to a player, if everyone agrees.
Sharing a character?
Now, sharing a character may not be the norm, but that's the point. Players can bounce ideas off each other, or just forge ahead without consulting anyone. Also, when commands do clash, course correcting the protagonist becomes part of the challenge.
To elaborate, players can sabotage the plans of a teammate (whether intentionally or unknowingly). Some of the most amusing posts come from players attempting to 'course correct'.
Posting Text Commands
Text commands will be accepted chronologically, in order of earliest post to most recent. Remember, although this is a text adventure, your commands will be processed by a sentient being, so use your imagination and let your creativity soar. Humorous text commands are encouraged as well.
When playing, use the greater than symbol to indicate a command:
>
Any other text will be considered out of character.
Instances of the game will be posted in the 'Examples' section. Thanks for reading, and don’t hesitate to comment with ideas and/or inquiries.
May the Force be with us all.

A leap of faith
Looking to recruit one to two PCs. The game is set on an island in the Eye of the Eye of Abendego, the eternal storm of Golarion. There is no way off the island that the shipwrecked PCs know of. They are currently between a rock and a hard place, given that there's nowhere to run to. They are guardians and protectors of civilians shipwrecked with them... the game's economic core.
PCs are now 4th level.

When the Stars Align
Premise
You're one of the few dedicated souls who are willing to actively fight the incursion of the outer void in Corrow, northern Brythunia. Anglo-Saxon culture, with Cimmerian and Nemedian origins.
Extra Mechanics
Sanity Pool: (Smarts + Spirit + 25) x 3.
Sanity Check: TN / S / F; for example [4 / 0 / d3] or [8 / d2 / d8]. This means you make a Spirit test with the first number as TN, taking second number of Sanity loss if successful, third number of Sanity loss if failed.
Application Deadline
I've set it to May 18th, but if the process slows down and I have enough applications, I'll close it and start the game.

The World of Elissar
THE WORLD OF ELISSAR
YOUR GRAND ADVENTURE AWAITS!
All is not well in Hengistbury. Children have been disappearing into the Weirwood; howls of an unearthly nature have been echoing across the Fogmoor; and Three-Fingered Jake has been spreading rumors of treasure and hauntings in the ruins of Brockendale Castle. All this aside, however, tonight is a warm, balmy evening. Many of the villagers are gathered in and outside the Bleeding Heart Tavern, and troubles seem far away.Well, except for that dragon in Skull Mountain...
Welcome to the World of Elissar; where we are about to embark on a journey of epic storytelling. As we tell the tale of how a handful of brave souls saved the kingdom. Our grand tale will be told in four memorable acts!
ACT ONE
The opening act will take our characters from levels 1-3, gently introducing the players to some of the new Advanced 5th Edition rules changes as we go. This act is geared toward introducing experienced players of D&D 5th Edition to the changes presented in Advanced 5th Edition Level Up.ACT TWO
But the journey is not so simple. To get there and succeed the party must win the hearts and minds of townsfolk, best fey of all sorts, overcome the trickery of fiends, fight corruption in ancient forests, travel the tunnels of Underland, and much more as they equip themselves with powerful artifacts for the battle of a lifetime!ACT THREE
Can they find the source of primordial wickedness before it engineers an even darker age to enshroud the world? What lies ahead includes spooky sandbox settlements, several dungeon crawls, and a dangerous finale filled with intrigue.ACT FOUR
This peace is soon to be shattered however as the local dabbler of the arcane takes his studies too far, undertaking rituals that will endanger not just Holdenshire or Endora, but Elissar itself!CHARACTER CREATION Character Creation & Play Guidelines: This document has everything you need to participate in one of my games.

The Realm Folded Tavern (RFT)
The doors of the Realm Folded Tavern are always open to those adventurers who seek it out!
The RFT is a D&D 3.5E community where participants take part in, and hopefully also run their own, missions and adventures of all lengths and concepts. It is not an 'anything goes' game, but we are pretty liberal in our character building limitations. There is no PVP in the Tavern itself, and it is frowned upon in missions; but if you want to test your skills we have an Arena too.The OGMW RFT ran for over 8 years, with hundreds of players and characters over its life, and we have now moved everything to the new RFT here on the new MW site.
Read the character guidelines, submit something for approval, maybe even offer to run a mission or two.
Fun and adventure awaits you at the Realm Folded Tavern!

Rules System: Advanced 5th Edition Level Up
GM Info: Hello! I'm Billy Watford. I've been a GM (DM, Storyteller, etc.) for about 35 or 37 years, and I've been gaming even longer. Over the years, I've conducted what seems like hundreds of adventures through Paizo, WotC, TSR, and I currently have many games ongoing on Myth-Weavers, some of which have lasted for years.
