Werewolf: The Apocalypse 5th Edition

Overview

Werewolf: The Apocalypse is a gothic-punk tabletop roleplaying game of environmental and spiritual horror, in which players take on Garou, shapeshifting werewolves who fight to protect Gaia from destruction, greed and corruption. It was created by Mark Rein-Hagen and first published by White Wolf in 1992, with a second edition in 1994, a Revised Edition in 2000 and a 20th Anniversary Edition from Onyx Path Publishing. The Fifth Edition, published by Renegade Game Studios and released in August 2023, is a 300-page-plus hardcover for ages 18 and up that uses the 5th edition Storyteller system. It is described as a re-imagining of the game and not a continuation of earlier editions. The system directly evolved from the original Werewolf: The Apocalypse (1992), and it is part of the

Description

Players take on werewolves who see themselves as the planet's immune system, hunting the supernatural forces that would bring about the Apocalypse. In the Fifth Edition, a werewolf is seeking radical solutions to an environmental apocalypse and the world's injustices. The Game Master (GM), called the Storyteller, runs a chronicle in the World of Darkness, and the book covers character creation and guiding a troupe. The game asks a table to engage with heavy themes. The book carries a mature content warning for violence, sexual themes and strong language, and first-edition reviewers noted that its mythology can be a lot to take in. It suits groups who want a story of rage, loss and ecological dread more than a tactical monster hunt.

Old-timer who loves dark character-driven narratives and intrigue with the occasional splash of color 😁  My name is Erin (she/they), I'm Danish, in my 40s and I'm a retired IT specialist who enjoys fiction and games. Basically I'm looking for a new amatuer Glass Cannon / Critical Role style online experience since my previous group disbanded. Like a long campaign where people are on cam and put a bit of effort into it all. I am however also interested in more casual and voice only games if the fit and the vibe is really solid, as well as local games in the greater Copenhagen area. Some of my favorite settings are Vampire the Masquerade, Planescape, Eclipse Phase and Cyberpunk, while for systems I quite admire Wild Words and Forged in the Dark because of their reactive and collaborative nature. As a contrast, my least favorite games would be large groups that's all about combat, optimising, winning and doing progression in a strict system. Preferences • characters and narrative first • long theatrical campaigns • in-character roleplaying • trust over contraints, rule of cool • adult with lines & veils, session 0 • groups of 3-4 players • video chat, clear audio • high attendance, punctuality About me • 25 years as both player and GM • enthusiastic about writing • happy to be group secretary • flexible hours, easy to reach • cozy gremlin creature Give me a poke if you think I could be a good fit for your game ☺️

Indepth discussions between characters, debates about what to do in different situations. Being challenged on morality of what is happening. Highs of wins fought through hard work and the sting of defeats felt through the whole group, ending in commiseration at the tavern as our characters mourn the loss of a favored NPC. Roleplay is what I love most about TTRPG's. I've been playing them since I was 12 years old (I am now 41), and while at the time it was because of all the cool monsters and stuff, even then I was captured by the different stories you could tell. I would love to share in the telling of the stories with you and your group. I've got extensive experience in a number of different systems from D&D in various incarnations to World of Darkness and Chronicles of Darkness to Masks, Stars Without Number and Fantasy Flight Star Wars. I'm always up for learning a new system! I've also GMed my fair share of games in the past, but am just looking to play right now due to my health right now (I am disabled) That isn't to say I -don't- like the tactical and exploration aspects of the game. When it comes to combat I tend to be more of a tactition sort of player, analyzing the playfield and trying to figure out the enemy. Though that hasn't ever stopped me from making the -stupid- decisions because they were in character. Story and plot over mechanical wins for me every time.  Failure is always an option. It  never is an end point, because it just gives new opportunities for story, even if it stings and hurts in the moment. We find the motivation in that. Current Availability: Tuesday and Thursday evenings weekly. Monday evenings and Saturday days every other week.

Hi, I’m Chris. I’m an experienced D&D player and GM who enjoys story-driven campaigns with a good balance of roleplay, exploration, investigation, and combat. I especially enjoy gothic horror, dark fantasy, Ravenloft-style settings, and campaigns where character choices have meaningful consequences. As a player, I prefer cooperative groups, well-developed characters, and a mature but relaxed table. I enjoy tactical play, but I’m more interested in memorable characters and strong group chemistry than optimisation for its own sake. I’m reliable, prepared, comfortable with Discord and Roll20, and interested in a stable long-term group. My main reservations are disruptive PvP, excessive metagaming, rules arguments, and characters designed to undermine the party. I’m otherwise flexible and happy to play with both experienced and newer players. Availability is mornings typically during the week (8am to 3pm EST)

Hiii!! I’m Mae, I’m a 21 years old woman and a beginner who’s looking for a group of people to play ttrpgs with. I’m hoping to play with other women and anyone else in the LGBTQ+ community (and I wanna have more friends to play ttrpgs with pleasepleaseplease🥺) Preferably online on a discord call or similar, but I’m not opposed to offline if anyone is in Sunrise, FL. I’ve been really into Call of Cthulhu and Vampire: the Masquerade as of recent so, if anyone needs an extra player for a campaign in any of those games I’d be more than willing to join. (or any werewolf the apocalypse games👀 i’m very much new to that but extremely interested) Though, I’m open to other games as well if the story happens to peak my interest. (but I have more characters made for coc and vtm tbh💀) I’m a little timid and it might take me a bit to get out of my shell especially since this would be my first time actually role playing if that’s expected of me (PLEASE I WANNA RP SO BAD, but also i’ve played one short game of D&D there’s wasn’t much room for us to do so…) I think I’d do better in smaller groups, I think it’s easier for me to get more comfortable and remember everyone that way. I enjoy more story based games where everyone’s character has ample room to grow and kind of bounce off of each other’s characters. If a campaign or game contains NSFW topics or anything else that would warrant a warning, I’m usually pretty open to it, just be sure to let me know in advance! I work almost every week and start my classes soon but they’re all online, other than that my schedule is flexible. If anyone would like me to join them or have my info for future games, you can DM me on reddit until i set up my discord which shouldn’t take long! Also I use Roll20 for most of my character sheets or just a pdf but if there’s another site in mind, don’t be afraid to let me know! ok byeee!!

Magic shop (D&D) A shop generator that has all items from the new DND 5.5 in there. It has logical pricing and a 1 button way to generate a quick NPC shop keep. Encounters (Daggerheart) A Daggerheart encounter generator that has all the content from also the SRD 2.0 in there and I am currently working on adding the same level of matching there as well. Loot (Daggerheart) A loot generator for Daggerheart also has all the new SRD 2.0 content and follows what is dictated by the source books as balanced as well. All with options to save them with an account.

Campaigns RPG Anti Monopólio Nesta série de actual play em que o caos e a sillyness reina, seguimos três colegas de casa improváveis, arrastados para debaixo do mesmo teto pela crise do imobiliário, fazendo os possíveis que estão ao seu alcance para lutar contra o aumento dos preços das casas e contra a tosta de abacate gentrificada. Normalville Situado para os lados da igualmente inexistente Leiria, Normalville é uma antiga cidade portuguesa, agora vila, com cerca de 3000 habitantes. Nada de especial ou histórico aconteceu em Normalville, a não ser ter sido tornada cidade com a construção do hospital, nos anos 50. Mais tarde, nos final dos anos 90, com a tentativa de uma construção de um parque de estacionamento subterrâneo, o hospital foi engolido pela terra, onde ainda está. A nossa aventura começa a cerca de 15km da pequena vila, num prédio de dois andares, onde os 3 habitantes serão chamados para aquilo que será o início de uma aventura.

Invincible RPG

English
Rules-light
Modern
Invincible - Superhero Roleplaying is a tabletop RPG based on Robert Kirkman, Cory Walker, and Ryan Ottley's Invincible comic and its Prime Video animated adaptation, designed by Adam Bradford (founder of D&D Beyond) and Tomas Härenstam (Free League co-founder and lead designer of the ALIEN RPG), and published by Free League Publishing in partnership with Skybound Entertainment.  Announced in February 2025, it was funded through a Kickstarter that raised over $400,000, with a Core Rulebook and Starter Set illustrated by original series artists Cory Walker and Ryan Ottley and graphic design by Johan Nohr of Mörk Borg fame. It runs on an adaptation of Free League's Year Zero Engine, streamlined down to nothing but six-sided dice. Description Playing Invincible means stepping into the franchise's own particular flavor of superheroics: cityscape brawls, sidekicks, team-ups, alien invasions, and witty banter, all delivered without the usual plot armor. Violence is graphic and injuries genuinely last, with death often permanent unless a character has the specific power to avoid it, which keeps the stakes tense rather than routine.  Mechanically and tonally, the game leans hard into the comic's central tension - ordinary teenage life, school, and relationships colliding with a level of power handed down from, and sometimes fought against, a parent - rather than playing superheroics as a straightforward power fantasy.
