Hello and welcome to /r/lfgpremium

I'm /u/awful_at_internet but I often go by Kharo. I've been into tabletop gaming for about 2-3 years now, and wish I'd gotten into it sooner. /u/Averien and I met years ago on a video-game forum, where he happened to mention that he DMs professionally. I was fascinated by the idea. After we talked about it more, Averien invited me to playtest his system/living world before he started scaling his business up, and I saw a small glimpse of the thousands of hours that go into a work like that.

I know he's not alone. There are other fine GMs out there who want to be compensated for their time, effort, and sheer creative talent. Not all of them create entire systems or living worlds, but it takes work to GM, and skill to do it well.

When /u/Averien and I went looking for replacements for his games, we found the matchmaking landscape lacking. /r/lfg is great, but it explicitly forbids (for some very good reasons) paid games. After a long search, we decided to ask the folks over at /r/lfg if they knew anywhere that did allow paid games, and they didn't know of any either. So, with /u/applejaxc's generous help, here we are.

Our goal is pretty focused and simple: to provide a place for people to find games, people, and campaigns that incorporate a pay-to-play model.

We should talk about expectations:

  • Read the Rules

  • We are focused on tabletop games specifically. No video games, please.

  • We highly recommend using the post format guide in the sidebar.

  • If you're a GM looking for players, include your pricing information in your post.

  • GMs looking to advertise their services generally as opposed to specific games should do so as a Community post. Please see the rules for how to do that.

  • If you're interested in free games, great! Head on over to /r/lfg and have a look! We cater specifically to paid games. Please do not circumvent our rules or theirs to bypass this.

So, welcome! I hope you find the game you've been looking for!

Make a comment on this post. Tag your GM or player. Give them 1-5 stars, and as much detail as you want about why. That GM/player is welcome to respond to the post, though other responses will be deleted to keep things clean, and the GM/player is limited to one response. No back and forth.

The goal here is for players that are about to potentially pay for a GM's services to be able to take a look at what other players have said about them, and vice versa!

You can rate a GM/player you've played with under any circumstances - you don't have to have paid for a game to be allowed to rate. GM's can run free games (advertised elsewhere, not here) to garner reviews if they'd like, or even ask people who they've GM'ed for in the past to come here and review them.

As usual, use the voting system liberally! If you feel like a review was very helpful, upvote it. If it looks shady, downvote it. And, of course, doxxing/harassment will not be tolerated.

Open [Online][D&D 5e][Paid][$20][Weekly][Foundry VTT] Icewind Dale: The Long Night | 4 Tables With Open Seats

Upvotes

Icewind Dale: The Long Night

An Extended & Modified Rime of the Frostmaiden Adventure

Wrestle with factions, fight a demigod and deal with the aftermath of your decisions! Play up to level 20 and follow a continuation in the wake of The Long Night!

Level 3 | 🔹Hexcrawl 🔹Survival 🔹 Heavy Roleplay

In the farthest reaches of the Forgotten Realms lies Icewind Dale, an expansive tundra riddled with danger, buried secrets, factions vying for control over the region, and a powerful demigod holding it all within her grasp.

Auril, goddess of winter, has trapped Icewind Dale in an endless night of ceaseless snow and biting cold. Ten-Towns and the goliath clans struggle to survive, something stirs beneath the mountains, and roaming barbarian tribes are slowly being pushed toward extinction.

If that wasn’t enough, reports have come in of beasts imbued with a strange, obsidian-like substance terrorizing the good folk of the Dale, while Auril’s faithful push into settlements, seeking to bring the people of the Dale into her fold.

Will you brave the frozen tundra of Icewind Dale for your own means, or save the region from certain doom?

In this adventure , your choices will lead you to:

🔹 Explore ancient Netherese ruins steeped in necrotic magic

🔹 Forge alliances with towns, clans, and rival factions

🔹 Uncover the mystery and implications of spreading Chardalyn corruption

🔹 Challenge a demigod and put an end to the endless winter

🔹 Follow rumors into the frozen wilds in search of lost settlements, hidden lairs, and things best left buried beneath the ice

You begin in Luskan: a port city on the northernmost part of the Sword Coast. Having paid heavily for passage north through the Spine of the World. Your expedition leader Hadrik is preparing the last caravan into Icewind Dale before the pass closes for the winter.

"Bring me a character with a thirst for adventure and I'll give you a world worth exploring"

Kurokk | Bring your ideas and and your choices to have an impact on this Homebrew World [Fridays 6:00pm EST] [Weekly] [$20] [D&D 5.5e] [Free Session 0] [Discord] [StartPlaying]

1 Upvotes

I bring you Kurokk - The Unwavering Place

A homebrew world, with a custom pantheon and an open world for you to explore.

Discover the lush green druidic forests of Himmelo, to the religious sanctuaries of Blhavmann and Rolgun to the criminal tinkerers and outlaws of Brisbenet.

We begin your story within Havenfell, the floating capital of the continent. Home to nobles, priests, criminals and soldiers- all previously led by five council members. But when a dragon attack left one member missing, one member deceased and two injured- the harmonious Hiram Mervor- Master of the Quill stepped in and seized the opportunity to unite everyone under something new- A king.

Within the Mørksmug (Shadow District) of Havenfell, whispers have begun of a rumor regarding The Master of the Mistsplit, one of the five members of The Council of Kurokk who had gone missing...

What are these rumors and are they true? Regardless or not, it's up to you to investigate, exploit or make worse.

Your choices will have an impact on this world. The allies you make, the enemies you create, political uprisings, war and entirely new stories to behold.

I want to be able to work with you to bring a character you've always wanted to play to life, giving them the story they deserve

Whether or not you have decades of experience with TTRPG's to never having thought or touched one, together we can bring your story to life

What I bring to the table:

Voiceover Actor: I've worked as a voiceover actor and with this my NPC's have distinct personalities and voices for you to interact with, making them easy to recognize remember.

Your backstory: It matters to me. What you bring to the table will not be throw away or changed, it will be adapted and brought into the game to fit the story we try and tell.

A living homebrew world: I've been running this world for multiple groups in person at this point, and their choices have had an impact on this world as will yours. Each city, religion and culture has their own way of life for you to interact with.

Ambient playlists: I will be using KenkuFM to provide background music and ambience during our sessions

Instructor background: I've previously taught University students for half a decade and love teaching this game to new players. In terms of the rules, come into this with whatever YOU want to do and I'll help you figure out how we can do that.

Sourcebooks: Any sourcebooks I have on D&DBeyond will be shared with you to create a character when you are invited to the campaign

Rule of Cool & Comedy: Ridiculous plans and comedy is encouraged at my table. Let's roll for it. I'll tell you how the world reacts.

The World: Almost three years ago I came to a group of friends who were all actors and we decided to do a one-shot. One player had knowledge of D&D 3.5e from prior games played, another had run Cyberpunk many years prior and the rest were completely new. At the end of the one-shot I heard "We want more" and we have been playing since.

[Online][DnD 5.5e][5thEd][$20][5pm US CST/Any Timezone] "Escape from The Loop" - Neon Odyssey Casino Station Campaign [Beginner & LGBTQIA+ Friendly][Campaign]

1 Upvotes

Deep in the Aether-filled expanse of the galaxy exists a station that was formed from the collective wealth of various intergalactic corporations and tycoons with one sole purpose: to be a hot spot of profit and pleasure. From these desires, Station Auxiliary Utopia, or “Station A-U” as it is formally known and advertised, was born. As the station was built, these wealthy backers and their peers formed a coalition that acted as the governing body in this station to help keep order and peace while also lining their own pockets, evolving into the Gilded Ring, a conglomerate partnered with the Kuzai Syndicate that now dominates the station's operations. Soon people from all walks of life, all types of species and socioeconomic classes came pouring in to make a name for themselves amongst the four districts of Station A-U. Some found luck and fortune on their side, building lavish establishments to further develop the station, while those out of luck often find themselves leaving empty handed, or in some cases, building a new life within the station’s sprawling housing networks to not only earn back what they lost, but to be lucky enough to join the upper crust of the Station’s society in the center of the ring. As time went on and the population inside the station grew and disseparate cultures melded, it began to take on different names people use to reflect the den of gambling, crime, and highs and lows that come with it. The most popular ones being “Lady Luck’s Loop” or just “The Loop”.

You and your party come to The Loop as members of a bounty hunter group coming off of the biggest job you’ve ever done, looking for some well-deserved R&R and maybe hit it big as a bonus. As you and your party are raking in your riches and enjoying a bit of downtime, you are suddenly the prime suspects in a tragedy that befalls one of the main four casino barons that rules a territory within the station. Now you must make your way through the various districts while trying to avoid or fight Ring members and opportunistic mercenaries as you try to clear your names. Will Lady Luck be on your side as you gamble with your lives, and will you be lucky enough to escape from The Loop? Roll the dice and see for yourself.

I offer ways to make the players more immersed in the world such as voice acting, fitting ambient sound and music, as well as engaging and interesting mechanics during both roleplay and combat. I tend to focus on the idea of Rules as Intended with room for the Rule of Cool, and a tone in my games that will allow for comedic and dramatic moments.

The year is 1880, the world is changing and has changed in ways no one could have expected. Throughout the world, creatures and beings from all types of folk tales have made themselves known since the Fae Revolution in 1800 and demanded the same rights and liberties of the “normal” world. These beings, often labeled as “Phantasmal Extranormative Beings” or more widely known as “Otherfolk”, have been part of the known world now for 80 years. Alongside these creatures from myth and fantasy, come ever more unusual, paranormal, and dangerous phenomena. Are they the cause of these events, are they fleeing the true cause, is there something else at play?

Here in this new west, you find yourself as a member of a heist crew on a train supposedly carrying valuable artifacts. Will you follow through with this heist and deliver what was promised? Or work with larger forces to defend what may be on this train? Marauders, gunslingers, and heatstroke are far from the only dangers in this wild and weird frontier, will you survive to become one of them? Blaze your own path in the Devil’s West.

[Online][5e][Tuesdays 7pm EST][Paid] Curse of Strahd - 3/4 seats filled - $15/session

1 Upvotes

A mysterious invitation arrives to you bearing an unfamiliar seal. The letter informs you to come and attend the festival of the First Harvest in the city of Daggerford near Waterdeep. It is quite curious as the invitation has no names, nor any markings. However, along with the invitation is the passes to the Mermaid's Pearl, a grand opera in the city of Daggerford. The letter ends with the mention of a 'handsome reward for your troubles (500 gp worth of diamonds)' and a promise to provide you with 'opportunity of a lifetime like any other.'

System: D&D 5e

Module: Curse of Strahd (Gothic Horror/Dark Fantasy)

Time: Tuesdays at 7:00 PM EST

Platform: Roll20 (VTT) & Discord (Voice+Video)

Cost: $15 per session

Spots Available: 3/4

Starting Level: 3

Price: $15 USD per session

Session length: 3ish hours

DMing Style: Laidback, rule of cool with emphasis on character interaction and story rather than mechanics

What to Expect: Curse of Strahd is a legendary, roleplay-heavy campaign dripping with atmosphere, suspense, and deadly encounters. This is not a heroic fantasy where you charge into battle with no consequences; it requires strategy, caution, and a willingness to engage with the dark, tragic themes of Barovia.

Beginner Friendly: Veterans and newcomers are equally welcome.

How to Apply: If you feel the mists calling to you, please send me a DM or reply below with the following:

  1. Your preferred name/pronouns:
  2. Your experience level with D&D 5e?
  3. What you enjoy most in a campaign: (Roleplay, Combat, Mystery, Horror, etc.)
  4. A brief character concept: (If you have one, but don't worry if you don't!)

I look forward to welcoming you to Barovia!

Your job? Hunt down the out-of-control anomalies that feed on human emotion.

Most people chalk them up to ghosts, aliens, or unexplained phenomena. But you know the truth. You know them as THE TWISTED. You've all been called to gather after class. Probably another assignment. A WEIRD ONE.

Face The Twisted in this Persona-inspired campaign for Fabula Ultima!

— WHAT TO EXPECT —

  • STREAMLINED CHARACTER CREATION thanks to Foundry's automations.
  • A VISUAL NOVEL STYLE experience.
  • RPG-style COMBAT ANIMATIONS.
  • A CURATED SOUNDTRACK tailored to the adventure.

Open [LFG][DND 5.5E][PAID] Rime of the Frostmaiden campaign looking for 2 more players (Thursdays, 10pm GMT+1), $15/session

1 Upvotes

Hey all, running a Rime of the Frostmaiden game that's currently on session 5, and we've got two open seats we'd love to fill before the story moves further along.

Quick rundown: it's Icewind Dale, but I've leaned hard into the "something is deliberately causing this endless winter" angle rather than just "cold place, bad things happen." Two years of darkness, dead harvests, a goddess who's clearly being used as cover for something else. The current party is a Warforged Paladin, a Beastkin Ranger, a Dhampir Warlock and a Kindred Warlock, and they just found out there's a group calling themselves "Liberators" murdering prominent people in Easthaven. It's been building nicely, and I don't want to spoil where it's headed.

Style-wise: combat lite, roleplay heavy, theatre of the mind, characters start at level 3. I do a proper session 0 with new players (or a one-on-one equivalent if you're joining mid-campaign) so your backstory actually gets woven into what's already happening instead of just tacked on. I've had stuff people wrote in their character app show up 10 sessions later and hit way harder than they expected.

Logistics: Thursdays 10 pm GMT+1, 2.5-3 hour sessions, run through Discord + Foundry VTT + D&D Beyond. $15/session, only charged when a session actually happens. Table uses X/N/O cards, lines and veils, open door policy, all that. I take safety seriously without making it a whole thing every session.

If you've been burned before by DMs who plan a big open world and then railroad you back onto the "real" plot the second you go off script, I get it, and I'd rather you ask me about that directly than just hope for the best.

If you're interested, please join via this link and get $10 off ur first game: https://startplaying.games/adventure/cmn82ctn7002jl204yfxonynr?ref=clp6e0g1i005xl408post584y

Open [Online][5e][Weekly][$20][18+] Your town has never lost anyone before its time. This month, it's lost seven. A Crooked Moon tale - The Dead Man's Hour

1 Upvotes

Thistlewick Hollow hasn't buried anyone before their time in two hundred years. This month it's lost seven people, and not one of them left a body behind.

That's the opening scene of a fully original Crooked Moon campaign I'm running, levels 3 to 15, long-form, one continuous story start to finish. Whatever's taking people isn't a wolf, a cult, or a madman. It's something already dead, working a chained dagger through locked doors, gone before sunrise. Corner it once, and it doesn't run, it tears a hole in the world and drags you through after it.

From there the campaign opens up fast. Over the course of it you'll:

  • Talk your way through a masquerade at the most exquisite and fanciest estate, surrounded by devils, witches, and nobles who could have you killed with a raised eyebrow.
  • Hijack a train ran on malevolent spirits mid-journey, fighting across the roof of a train built from hell iron and gold while it screams through Chernabos at full speed.
  • Break, tame, and ride a bejeweled scorpion the size of a wagon into battle.
  • Steal a floating arcane skiff off its dock and lose a squad of furious spellcasters across a city built in the sky.
  • Crack a guild vault full of doomsday weapons, and hope you're not the fourth crew with the same idea tonight.

This isn't a monster-of-the-week tour through the afterlife. It's one mystery, run properly, for as long as it takes.

The practical stuff:

  • System: D&D 5e (2024 rules), starting level 3, running to 15
  • Schedule: Weekly, Wednesdays 9PM GMT+1, ~3hr sessions
  • Price: $20/session
  • Platform: Foundry VTT, Discord, D&D Beyond: full content shared, nothing locked behind a book you don't own

Open [LFM][Edge of the Empire-FFG][20$/session][Mon 8pm EST][FoundryVTT][3/5] Recruiting for ongoing Star Wars campaign

1 Upvotes

Edge of the Empire:

Edge of the Empire is an excellent TTRPG which uses a unique dice system to help aid in the story telling. It is part of the larger Fantasy Flight Games Star Wars RPG, a collection of 3 interchangeable and mixable systems, which include Age of Rebellion, Edge of the Empire and Force and Destiny.

Set after the Battle of Yavin, at the height of the Galactic Civil War, Edge of the Empire focuses on the outlaws at the outskirts of the “civilized” Galactic Empire. Smugglers, Bounty Hunters, Thieves, Assassins, Frontier Doctors, Settlers and Local Politicians all seek to carve out a life for themselves at the furthest reaches of the galaxy. However even as the Rebel Alliance fights their uphill battle against the Empire, the Empire’s reach continues to grow. Will you learn to coexist with the Empire or hide from them? Perhaps even aid the growing Rebellion? Your group will have to chart the best path forward themselves!

Mondays 8:00pm Eastern

The Campaign So Far

This is a long term campaign with no planned end. The group has played through the introductory adventures "Escape from Mos Shuuta" followed by "Long Arm of the Hutt", then “The Jewel of Yavin". They have most recently finished "Beyond the Rim”, one of the bigger adventures for the system. In between major adventures they have hunted bounties, raced swoop bikes and smuggled the Corellian Shuffle. The immediate future is wide open, with no plans for any major adventures for a while, as we focus on the consequences of the character’s actions throughout the campaign and deal with aspects of their backstories.

The party includes Cashar Brut who is a Falleen Smuggler/Pilot, Ruug the Shistavanen Bounty Hunter and Rennek, our former Imperial Commando.

The Game:

-New Players are welcomed and will be assisted, whether you are new to Roll20 or the Star Wars RPG!

-Although the Star Wars RPG uses proprietary dice, its mechanics are often quite intuitive. Our group has been playing since Apr. 2025, and at this point we feel comfortable enough to bring in and teach new players. No experience required!

-Despite being a major fan of battlemaps and tactical combat in other systems, I often find that Theater of the Mind works exceptionally well with the Star Wars RPG. Battlemaps will still show up for some more involved combats, but many can be resolved in a short amount of the time with no visual aids necessary.

-New characters will start at the same experience level as the party. Star Wars RPG has a very interesting character building system that does not rely on levels, but purchasing skills and talents with accumulated XP, with easy access to different character classes to branch out! Currently at 805 earned XP.

-We will have a split Session 0/New Player introduction session, to help new players learn the game and help them fit in with the party. This session will be free.

-Sessions will last 3 hours.

-Discord for Voice Chat.

Your DM:

-I started with TTRPGs by running 5th Edition D&D. In 2019, I transitioned into running paid games as a full time job, and have been running 3-5 games a week since. I started running the Star Wars RPG in Apr. 2025 as previously mentioned.

-Available nearly 24/7, excluding my sleep hours. Always willing to answer questions.

-Good Connection/Headset/Microphone.

What is expected of you?

-Respect is a must and I will not tolerate player conflicts, PVP, or any type of disrespectful behavior towards the other players. No graphic sexual content. Players who violate this Social Contract will be removed with no refund.

-Be on time, as this is basic respect for myself and the others. Missing a session will be allowed with prior notice, with no charge. Sessions will still go forward as long as we have 4 players and no major plot moments. Players who have issues with attendance will be removed with no refund.

-Have a reasonable quality microphone (be intelligible), Discord and use push to talk. (I can assist you in setting this up).

Pay to Play:

-20$ Per Player Per Session (Excluding Session 0), paid via Paypal in advance.

Session 0 is free. Please reach out via DM to join or with any questions

GM LFG [Online][Campaign][Discord][PBP][All Time Zones][40K][Solo][$15] The rise of a Chaos Champion

2 Upvotes

For most, to live in these times is to be one amongst untold billions, living in this cruelest and bloodiest regime imaginable. And out of those untold billions, none will be missed.

But not for you. There are those who not only seek their own path. Their own way to make a difference. There are those who succeed. Those who will be missed. Or at the very least, prayed that they disappeared like so many others.

Your character will be someone in the Imperium with that most terrible affliction. Doubt and the ability to think. Someone who thinks beyond a lifetime of indoctrination and who seeks another way. And in this universe, there are powers who aid such people. Who offer an alternative path. A path where they can be free. At just the tiniest of tiny prices. Their soul.

Who are they? They could be anyone. A brave space marine or guardsman, a pious member of the Sororitas, a hard-working clerk, a violent ganger, a spoiled noble. There are countless people within the Imperium, and everyone could be tempted.

And from there, we will take their story. From the first temptation to their rise on the path of glory. The powers that offer aid to your character will make them into a champion. Someone to bring darkness to the light. Someone to bring the truth to the slaves of the corpse emperor. But be warned. Those who rise the highest in the favour of Chaos also are those who can fall the deepest.

With that out of the way, the basic idea is that you play someone in the Imperium who is tempted by Chaos. Naturally, they won't just be a regular cultist to be sacrificed right away because that would make for a pretty boring story. No. They will be one of those rare few with the talent and drive to rise to the top.

This can of course take several forms, depending on who your character is and what you want. It could be that they want to cast their homeworld into darkness and ascend to daemonhood. But it could also be that they leave everything behind and seek to rise to command and to cut a swathe of destruction through the Imperium. Or who knows. They might even want to bring the whole thing down and tear the Emperor of his throne.

On their way, they will have to find ways to overcome their foes, gather followers, and achieve immortality.

The setting will be in the classic Imperium before Abaddon tore it in half and before any of the primarchs returned. That mostly is because I prefer the feeling of that era and because I know it a bit better. We will determine where exactly within the Imperium we start based on who your character is.

The story will take place in a play by post format. That should leave more space for the development of the character within the story and for more detail to be added. My plan is to respond at least once per day and that every response will move the story forward in some way.

This game should be suitable for anyone. From a complete beginner to an expert. That goes for both game systems and for the setting.

**Price**: $15/week

**Schedule**: Daily posts

GM LFG [Online][D&D 5e 2014][Mini-Campaign][18+][$10/session][Weekly][Fridays] Murder In Baldur's Gate | Urban Fantasy • RP Focused • Political Intrigue • Epic Adventure

1 Upvotes

Known by all, loved by many, the most popular and respected Grand Duke of Baldur's Gate in the city's history, a legendary hero and adventurer of years past, Abdel Adrian, also know as Gorion's Ward, is about to give a speech at The Wide - the biggest plaza in the Upper City of Baldur's Gate often used as a marketplace. The occasion for the speech is the Returning Day - the most important Baldurian holiday when people celebrate the return of the famous sailor Balduran from Anchorôme to Faerûn, who brought unbelievable riches from his voyage back to his home village of Gray Harbor some 400 years ago and ordered the fortification of the village and building of the city walls around it, thus founding Baldur's Gate. You are among the spectators, the audience at The Wide, ready to witness the living legend. But something goes wrong. Terribly wrong...

Starting from that day, you will be caught in the middle of a whirlwind of catastrophic events that would signify the beginning of the Second Sundering - the cataclysm that would later shape the Forgotten Realms as you know them. Are you ready to make history?

Open [FoundryVTT][PAID][$25][LVL 1-12] [Mondays 11 PM EST] Curse of Strahd 5e [5e][LFP][1 slot] 3D Battlemaps!

1 Upvotes

My campaigns are very character-focused, roleplay-heavy, and feature a ton of custom content from magic items to races. I build these campaigns from scratch starting with the players ideas so the stories you want to explore are the central focus! We play D&D 5e with a variety of homebrewed rules and edits. My sessions feature custom music, ambiance, 3D maps, interactive menus, and more through Foundry VTT.

I currently run 7 full homebrew campaigns weekly.

We just started up a CoS campaign on Mondays! We have 5 players and I'm open to having one more!

All sessions are online and require Discord and a browser for Foundry. If you have a system that cannot support the 3D maps, I stream the games to a private Youtube channel for players to watch during or after the sessions.

These sessions will be 3 hours each, Mondays at 11 PM EST with a 30 minute post discussion (optional).

This is the original Strahd module for the most part, but I do make a few changes to improve the module and make it interesting for players who have already played this module.

I'm also opening up the option to play preset characters such as Ireena, Ezmerelda, Rictavio, Ismark, etc. and expand on their characters throughout the story, picking classes for them and leveling them as part of the party.

This module will most likely go to level 12.

Sessions are $20 weekly.

I'm pretty lenient with character creation and I encourage uniqueness! I allow most official Wizards content and homebrew as long as it seems balanced. If I feel something you created isn't balanced I will work with you to make it balanced so you can still play the way you want no matter what content you are using! Whether it’s a homebrew campaign or a module I will center the story around player characters and integrate their backgrounds into the story.

I like challenging my players while ensuring the sessions feel fun and balanced. New players are welcome! I can help you learn the game no matter how little experience you have!

I also work with a character artist to make custom tokens for players at a reduced cost if you are playing in my sessions!

Custom artwork can be provided upon request by @_honeycup   https://www.instagram.com/_honeycup/

If you are interested in playing please contact me on Discord with info on your character and D&D experience!
