Realms Of Adventure
Explore the Forgotten Realms in the longest-running games on RPoL!
Realms of Adventure (RoA) is a long-running community of play-by-post
Forgotten Realms games for 3.5-edition Dungeons & Dragons. Each game has its own DM, its own set of PCs, and each campaigns through its own area of the
Forgotten Realms setting.
The DMs run their own adventures in their own lands of Faerûn, entirely independently yet part of a larger world. The advantage is that we can help each other out when times are tough, give advice, and rescue each other's games or players rather than let them die out. Players can transfer from game to game, keeping their character and their level, but still experience all that the Realms has to offer.
For their hard work, DMs can get perks for their characters, such as extra XP, as well as respect, adoration, and that warm fuzzy feeling.
It's a fun and enjoyable community. We recently had our 13th anniversary, making us one of the largest and longest-running games on RPoL.
REALMS OF ADVENTURE (RoA) is ALWAYS accepting DMs!
We have a number of games that need to be taken over as their previous DMs have had to retire for various real-life reasons. You don't have to resume an existing storyline, we're really looking for DMs to keep existing parties together and active. We are also always interested in DMs coming in and starting (or re-starting) their own regions in RoA.
If you'd like to DM for us, please indicate your experience as a player or DM in general and in the PbP gaming mode, and your knowledge of the
Forgotten Realms setting, as well as anything else you'd like us to know. Knowledge of FR is nice but not essential; we can share heaps of information on the setting and direct you to small-scale regions to try out. We'll answer any questions you have, and let you look around to see what you think first.
We use standard D&D 3.5 rules where possible, though alternative magic systems (
Expanded Psionics Handbook,
Magic of Incarnum,
Tome of Battle,
Tome of Magic) are restricted to bubble regions with slightly different rules (such as Psionics). All new material is considered by all DMs before it is allowed for use. We limit ourselves to official WotC material.
We use the classic
Forgotten Realms setting, circa 1375 DR and 1376 DR.
Thanks for reading, and have a great day!
