Hi and thanks for checking out my interest check thread. With all the Dungeons and Dragons 5e games suddenly popping up, I felt it was time to throw my hat into the ring as well. It's been a bit since I ran a game on here and I actually have two great ideas which I can chose between, luckily I can make all of you decided for me. So here are two separate primers to give you an idea of what the choices are. The link to the poll is at the bottom of the page.

I know that the info below doesn't tell you much about the game itself but I'll hoping they have enough information catch people's interest. Once I know what the majority of people are interested in based on the style of game, I'll start new thread with much more information so people can make characters.

The ideas are still in the rough stages so parts of the campaign will be subject to change but the main focus of the campaign will remain unchanged.


Chains of Desire (Ravenloft Inspired)

You awaken in a city of twilight. Masks are worn by all. Whispers shape power. Nothing is free. This is Virellein, the City of Chains and Silk — a place of pleasure and peril, temptation and control. You don't know why you're here… but you're already being watched. In this place, desire is currency—and everyone is for sale, even the soul.

This is a campaign for those who enjoy:
  • Erotic fantasy
  • Exploration of dominance, submission, and identity
  • A mysterious, elegant setting dripping with temptation

Prepare for masks, whispers, beautiful lies… and the touch of silk chains.
Are you ready to surrender to the City of Chains?


Sins of the City of Splendors (Girls Night Out)
Waterdeep gleams by day—but by night, the city’s heart beats faster. Temptation stirs in the alleys of the Dock Ward, laughter echoes from behind velvet-draped doors, and pleasure is becoming power. You and your companions were only looking for a night out: music, wine, maybe a little mischief. Instead, you stepped into a web of seduction, secrets, and subtle spells where every choice teases the edge between ecstasy and ruin.

Now, eyes are watching, whispers are calling, and some pleasures were never meant to be free.

This campaign is for those who enjoy:
  • Erotic intrigue, mystery, and dark glamour
  • A female-led cast of adventurers (don't worry boys, someday there will be a guy's night in Waterdeep campaign too)
  • Familiar Waterdeep locations, some reimagined

When the sun sets over Waterdeep, masks slip—and so do morals.


Click here to go to the poll and vote. Only one vote per person and the top pick after two weeks wins. Thanks again for checking this out!

Tentative interest if a Ravenloft-style game gets going. :)

Edit: Actually, upon reflection, I think maybe this isn't quite the right fit for me either way! Best of luck to you in whichever game you start, oldedog, and may everyone involved have a blast gaming! <3
Whеn's the last time you tasted blood?
And what would it take to stem the flood?
And I am caught in time...
Like clockwork beneath the permafrost.
I might lose my mind
back to back with oblivion

By accepting what is and making the best use of every situation, life can be fulfilled without a constant demand for more. --Wen Tzu

In writing, a flaw is not the interesting part of a character.  What is interesting is how a person overcomes a flaw.  I want to read how a person overcomes a flaw, not how the flaw overcomes the person.

Looks interestin', going to plant a lil' flag here, though it's a tough choice between the two concepts

Right now, Girl's Night seems to be winning by a landslide. I doubt the vote will suddenly reverse itself but I'm sill gonna wait until closer to my two week deadline before closing the poll. If we go close to a week without the vote changing, I'll probably call it there and go forward with the winner.

Glad to see some interest being generated by my ideas!

Sorry, realized I hit save draft instead of post when I tried to answered your question earlier. It'll be 2014 rules, I'm more familiar with them and don't agree with some changes that were made in the 2024 version.

@Ian Temero I'll be making a recruiting thread once the vote is over. It'll have all the rules for character creation so feel free to post a character when the time comes. I'll probably have a party of four to five to keep things manageable on my end.
