You're an explorer, looking for gold, gems, magic, and power. Join us for Shadowdark and Swyvers, two D&D-adjacent games with an OSR flair that are easy to learn and a blast to play. What does the world look like where Ramlaat the Pillager, god of Chaos, has been brought low? Find out as Jason leads us through adventures and dungeons in the frozen Daj Kodan in Shadowdark. Or get up to debauchery as a criminal bastard in The Smoke, the biggest, dirtiest city in the world of Swyvers. Josh leads us as we delve into the dark underworld of The Midden and kidnap rat babies for fun. Both games are open tables with friendly players. We fill up - RSVP now! Shadowdark is a popular, approachable, quick-to-learn system that draws on the best features of D&D 5E and combines them with an intense role-playing experience in which you, as the player, determine your actions. With a focus on getting into the action and focusing on play, not rules, Shadowdark won four industry awards, including Best Game 2024.

Come play Shadowfinder: Pathfinder 1E converted to Shadowdark. We will be playing brand-new adventures and dungeons using Shadowfinder's stripped-down, simple RPG system. This is an open-table RPG West Marches campaign set in a shared world. Sign up and play; there's no ongoing required commitment, and the more you play, the more involved in the story your characters will be. Focus on player-driven exploration. The world reacts persistently, rewarding curiosity, coordination, and consequence in a living, sandbox environment.

Las Madrinas is a hexcrawl-style sandbox campaign for Shadowdark in which the characters scour a dark fantasy world being pulled in opposite directions by deific figures known as the Matriarchs. Through adventuring, dungeon-crawling, and good old-fashioned role-playing, players will have the opportunity to help guide the land's fate while discovering its history as their choices impact the very land they traverse. The realms of Las Madrinas are culturally diverse but feature only human characters to help the campaign focus on mankind's struggles. This means new human ancestries while elves, dwarves, and the like return to the shadowy otherworlds and fairy tales they emerged from. No previous knowledge of Shadowdark is needed to join; veterans and newcomers alike are welcome, and I will be taking feedback on the setting and rules as we go. My hope is to build a player-reactive setting with strong themes influenced by the Matriarchs, allowing for replayability and a sense of player agency. The games will be bi-weekly on Thursdays at Gongaii Games, and I hope to see you there! Sign up on the OrSoRe Meetup! https://www.meetup.com/oregon-sorcerous-realms-osr/events/315755599/
