Greetings, adventurers!

Hey everyone, I was directed here from Reddit after posting a PbP game of Basic Fantasy. I am an experienced DM and player with ten years under my belt on both sides of the screen. I've played a lot of DND 5e and Pathfinder 1e, as well as DM'd Deadlands and a session or two of Mutants and Masterminds. I have a campaign in mind inspired by my love of both horror and Castlevania, using the Basic Fantasy RPG system that I would like to DM in a PbP style. I've never done PbP, but perhaps someone can point me in a direction of some literature on the subject. I would like to learn more about using Mythweavers and would like to meet all of you!

Welcome to the Weave, Elik. We have a few guides around here that should help you cut your teeth on the Play-by-Post format, and there's nothing quite like plain ol' experience to help you along the way. If you have any questions, let us know!

Anyhow, in case you haven't seen it yet, here's a link to our Myth-Weavers v6 User Guide, which contains several handy links that you will likely find useful. We do things a touch differently than some other sites, where we have game ads posted and prospective players apply. You'll want to swing over by our Game Ads section to check that out! Every GM does it a little differently, so check the campaign info and forum for the exact details.

We support a very wide variety of systems here, ranging from good ol D&D (of all editions) to Pathfinder to Shadowrun to Fate to PbtA to OSR to, well, I don't think there's a system we don't support or have players for. So if you spot something outside of your norm that catches your attention - go ahead and apply for it anyways. There is much to be gained by going outside of the box, after all.

Also, I recommend getting chatty through out the forums or even dropping by our Discord Channel, especially if you have questions. Just watch out for those welcoming harpoons - they're harmless... mostly 😂

If you have any questions, let us know! Don't be afraid to ask, either - we do our best to help people out.
