I'd love to be in a PBP again. Shoot me a pm if you're interested in getting on up and running or have room for one more. I'm willing to play just about anything.

Hi,

If any games are taking on new runners at the moment I'd like to join one. Preferably 4th Ed since I've forgotten lots of 3rd Ed rules and the books are in storage now

I would love to participate in a game. Skype, Google, or PbP. I am on often though not always at home. I have A LOT of 4E books and plenty of characters floating around on chummer waiting to be finished out and polished. these characters range from the lucky bumbling face, to the in your face shoving a katana down your throat sam and everything in between, with good or reasonable back stories for each

Hi All,

This is my very first post, yeah. I am looking for a SR5 game. I prefer games with lots of RP, investigation and deadly combat. I am available everyday and can log in throughout the day. I will be posting my first character to the Cast of Shadows thread, she is an Elf magician that focuses on face skills and spirit combat.

Looking for a game also. Seems the game has gotten more popular since SR Returns?

Eastern Standard Time zone; would like online games in the evenings. Willing to do pbp or online sessions.

Will put my toon in the other thread as well.

Like everyone else, looking for a game. Online, chat, pbp, whatever works for you I can manage it somehow!

I think a lot of the recent interest is both from Shadowrun Returns and SR5.

That said, anyone waiting for a game, try to be patient, but maybe also check individual PBP game threads, looking for recruiting GMs, as they don't always check this particular thread. In fact, that's exactly how I got into my current game - I picked a likely thread, read through it to make sure recruiting was still open, then got slotted in for a game, presumably with my GM never even looking at this thread.

Currently, I'm happy to be a player instead of my usual GMing role with my local gaming group, but maybe after I've gotten more used to the new system I'll offer to GM my own PBP campaign. No promises though, as I'm not sure I'm up to the challenge - I currently GM for close friends, and that changes the table dynamics drastically, allowing for a less skilled and less experienced GM such as myself to still succeed pleasantly.

Looking to get back into a game, 4E. I'm in GMT+1 hour, and I can post at least once a day.

Greetings,
I'm looking for a PBP game running SR5. I can post usually twice a week, maybe three times (Wed night, Thurs night, Fri night, Saturday, and Sunday). I am GMT +5. I can fill any kind of role, but would prefer Decker, rigger, mage. In that order. Prefer a relatively balanced mix of Black Trenchcoat to Pink Mohawk. You can reach me by email at Gmail. name is Iridios (without the DZ).

I will start work on a decker character, but would prefer to know what role(s) are needed beforehand.

Hello,
I'm new to Dumpshock as well as PBP, however I have been playing SR for going on 20 years now. I am retired Army (DAV) so I have a lot of time during the day. I would prefer SR4A until SR5 gets a little more fleshed out, but I do have a copy of 5.

Hey, my first post on Dumpshock; as face to face games of Shadowrun have dried up for me, I'm looking to try my hand at PBP. I am GMT+1, and can post 3 or more times a week. Particularly like the SR4 setting - don't think I'll look at SR5 until it's more established and support books are out. I have a couple of standing characters that I can bring up to scratch - my naive dwarf/changeling radical eco-shaman is the one I most want to try out, but I also have a veteran ork gunslinger adept, and a concept for a deluded transhuman rigger/sam in mind, too.

Returning (if not especially active) member here, looking to get back into the game. I'm hoping for a 4th Edition game, if any Johnsons are hiring...

Just joined Dumpshock and feel like a kid in a candy store!

If any groups are taking new runners or have spot open... please send me a tell.

Thank you for your time

I'm looking for an SR4A game that takes place any day except Sunday, that plays over some real-time method such as IRC or Roll20, though I'd consider a PbP if I really liked the premise and chargen constraints.

Preferably something that starts the players off as advanced Runners in Seattle, but I'll take pretty much whatever I can get, as long as the GM can make reasonable assurances that the game won't run for a month and a fortnight and then vanish.

I'm a very reliable player, as I have nothing but time on my hands, and I like a lot of roleplay to go with my rollplay.

I'm in the same boat as ShadowDragon8685, ditto on pretty much every condition and point.

Looking for Group

Longtime tabletop RPG veteran of 18 years looking to broaden my RP horizons.

I have a couple of character concepts that are pretty much ready to be customized to the campaign and jump
right in. Its been a decade since my last PbP, so I may need a couple of beats to get into the groove.

Characters:
Genry von Tresckow- Human Gunslinger Adept
Drave: Elf Drone Rigger

Looking for an SR5 game. Still learning. I have a character ready - check the link in my signature for "Sledge." He has 6 karma and an extra contact that will be cleared when I find a game. The game he was made for has unfortunately gone silent.

Veteran Shadowrunner looking for a game with a few dedicated players. Would prefer a small party for pBp or perhaps using a system like roll20.net for games. I would like to give 5th edition a try but 4th would be OK. Cannot play on some weekends but can play a more constant schedule during the week.

Low-semi experinced runner looking for SR4 game, possibly SR5.

Hi All,

I'm brand new to the SR system and setting, so would appreciate an introductory game of some kind to get my feet wet. I don't know anybody who GMs locally, so figured PBP was a good way to start. Slow pace is appreciated, as I'm also a student, and school always comes first.

I have the SR5 core and current errata, but have yet to generate a character. I'm interested in generally getting familiar with the system and archetypal setting and style, so guessing I'd want perhaps a couple other players, possibly newbies like me.

Thanks for your consideration.

Up for a game if you need the numbers. Good for 4A and 5th, pretty up to date with most of the rules. PM me if interested.

I would like to register my interest. Game for most systems, any tone and most roles. ( I'd like to avoid playing as a hacker/ technomancer but I could probably do it in a pinch.)

Iwould prefer 4th or 5th edition. As they're the only systems I'm familiar with.

A please, an anticipatory thank you and a hello to everybody.

Hey there,
I'm looking for an SR4 game. I only played one PbP game before, but I hope this will be no problem. I can post up to 5 days per week, but sometimes ( about every 2 months) I might not be home and thus post less often. I am from germany, so GMT+1. I am also up for playing over roll20.net or similar.
I am not a native speaker, but believe to be fluent ( and I am able to use a translator ).

I could provide most character types besides Deckers, but would like to play a Street Sam of mine. I will put it up, if someone is interested, but I am also willing to rebuild or build another character to match another powerlevel. But please, nothing where more than 20 dice are considered usual .

Hey folks,

Life has once again seen fit to bless me with free time, so I'd like to get back into SR. Last time I played was about 4 years ago, and I ran 3rd ed for a group of friends who drifted apart as a gaming group due to various life issues (moving for work and family, mostly).

I'm in EST time zone, available pretty much 6-12pm M-F and anytime on the weekends. Willing to play any edition, just about any role, although I don't tend to get weird. Haven't had much luck with PBP games, they all seem to die out, but online is good - I can do Skype, Roll20, Google Hangouts, Teamspeak, etc. On the off chance anyone has a FTF group going within an hour of Columbia SC, I'm up for that as well.

Run sane, chummers

Hello everyone,

I'm also looking for a PbP or online game to join. Last time I played was 2nd Ed way back in 1998-99. I'm willing to learn any of the latest editions so just name it. Just be willing to teach a little bit or at least answer a few questions as I learn everything again. I can post 2 to 3 times a week would be best or a single night a week for a online (face to face) game.

Now if anyone is in Wainwright, Alberta, Canada please drop me a line and maybe we can get a group together.

Urban Nightmare
Living the dream...

Hoi chummers,

Amateur runner and longtime fan of the shadows looking for a SR3 or 4a PBP game.

Same here! Eager to join a game. 4th or 3rd edition. depending on the interaction, I am very available so I can post often

Hi everyone! Looking to join a 4th ed game, I'm willing to try lots of characters but I'm thinking of a combat-oriented one right now, Street Sam or Weapons Specialist most likely, possibly with some Adept stuff.

I can post a couple of times a week.

Looking to play in a 5e game .... PREFER black trenchcoat but willing to play basically anything 5e ( don't own any 4e books Plus don't want to confuse myself with multiple rule sets). Never played PbP before but I have plenty of time to post during the week. I have made a cat shaman I would like to play, but again, willing to play whatever the group needs if need be. I'm excited about the possibility of actually playing, I'm always railroaded into GMing, so .... Somebody hit me up and I'll start jumping through whatever hoops are necessary. Cheers!

Hello!

Looking for an SR4 game to join (don't have SR5 as yet..); I don't have a specific character pre-generated as yet, I would generate a character on a game by game basis. Ideally, a game that is not extremely fast paced, maybe 2-4 posts per week average, although Id like to think I could ramp up if more were called for. I have a fair amount of experience in shadowrun (4 and earlier), RPGs in general and play by post games as well.

I *do* want to let people know in advance that I am a long-time sufferer of anxiety and depression, and it sometimes puts me into a position where I miss out on a post or two. I will do my best to push past that though, and if it gets bad, let the group I am in know what is going on rather than simply vanishing.

Thank you!

I'm a long-time member who's been absent becoming a parent and so forth. Skipped 4th edition entirely and looking to get into a 5e game. Once I'm familiar with the rules I'll probably be looking to GM also, but I'd rather familiarise myself from a players point of view.

So if anyone's looking for a team, let me know!

Hey, chummers. I'm looking for a 5e PbP game. I'm currently running one and am really interested in exploring the player side of the game. Any type of game is fine, and I'm open to playing most character archtypes, though my preference leans slightly towards Matrix-based characters.

I also have a friend moseying along with an account sometime soon who is also interested in joining a PbP, so if you have a game in mind you can count on two players able to post daily

Low experience player looking for a PbP game! I have done a few runs back in 4th, but none so far in 5th; I would be comfortable with either. Open to any sort of game (trenchcoat or mohawk), with any sort of posting speed although I would prefer at least a few each week.

I am comfortable playing a variety of roles in any team and I am more than willing to make a new character to fulfill a needed position.

That said, I am dying to try out hacking in 5th edition if possible.

Hope to be running with someone soon, omae.

Looking to get into a 5th ed game, open to PbP or other online methods though I'm admittedly rusty. Haven't played in way too long, so hopefully there's some GM out there looking to adopt an old mutt that recalls when the phrase "frakking drek" was harsh in SR lingo

As an inexperienced but enthusiastic new Shadowrun player, I'd like to get involved in a 5e game but I'm unsure how to go about it.

I've used HeroLab to create a runner who's something of a medic, someone just starting out in the shadows (hence why he's been created to Street Level rules).

5th ed.
Like Technomancer, Rigger, magic user.
Could post daily.

Brand new to dumpshock. Long time RL RPG gamer/gm with a more recent discovery of SR. Currently playing in two IRL SR 5e games. Id prefer to keep with that rules set. Familiar with chummer and willing to play most character archtypes. I do tend to be a party leader/organizer at times, but this would be my first pbp game. I would hopefully be able to post semi-daily with some days having higher levels of response than others (I sit at a computer for work, but some days a damn busy while others are very slow). I love the gear side of the system, and im still very much learning the setting. id love to play with a group just starting out and be along for a ride to explore the shadows more!

Long-term Shadowrun player dating back to the early ninties; have played in PbP for well over a decade and founded the longest (known) running PbP that's in its fifteenth year.

Would like a 4e, but could learn a 5e game if that's all that's available.

Let me know if any of you need another player!

Sign--
Wacky

Looking for a 5e game, don't really care about what role looking to fill.

Can post a couple of times per week, though may slow down a little around the holidays.

Hope to hear from ya soon.

Been outta the pbp community for a while, looking to get back in. I have several character concepts already prepared, so I ready and able to jump in whenever needed.

A game on PBP has been an ambition of mine for a long while now but I've never actually taken the opportunity to put myself forward for it.

Inspiration is easy so I'm happy to play almost anything and be plastic to the group. Particularly given I'm not certain how much of an asset I could be (Creative writing in general isn't a muscle I've exercised very well.)
I'm most familiar with 4th, I've got the most books for 5th. I'm happy for basically any ruleset as well.

Anybody got any space? Please and thank you's.

Edit: And a weekly/ bi-weekly schedule feels like it would be absolutely manageable.

Is there any new or on-going pbp campaign this chummer could join?

I'm comfortable playing any team role (some slight knowledge gap on how to play deckers, but I'd be willing to learn that in a pinch) and I consider myself fairly versed in both SR mechanics and lore. And a frequent poster. And amazingly humble..

Boy It's tough selling yourself without coming off like a douche

I prefer 3rd and 5th edition games (the ones I have experience with) but I would not say no to other games either.

If there is a job opening please PM me.

Cheers

Hoi chummers!

Old hat runner looking for a new team to run with after a hiatus from the shadows. I'm capable of most any roles, but am most experienced with matrix specialization, though also decent with magic (the two systems that are most often complained about being overly complicated). I have the books for all five current editions, but have the most experience with 3E and 4E.

If your crew needs another, or you're looking to start a crew, feel free to PM me, as I'm able to be fairly active in posting, at least once or twice a week.

Yo!

Runners out there. YO!

Corporate scumbag maneuvers have stripped my PC, Connor, of an awesome running mate. Connor needs help!

Come on. The story telling is awesome, and the title promises deep intrigue and world-class payoffs.

Get off the couch, people. What else do you have to do?

Risk your lives and get rich. Live fast and die hard.

Otherwise ... what's the point?

::: Recruitment Behind the Crown

Hello, just seeing if there's any interest out there for 4A, which I have some experience with, or 6E which I could make the jump to.

I'm interested in GMing, but could play first as I don't have any experience using this particular forum to play.

I like 4A. I have several PCs from Dumpshock campaigns that didn't last very long, anything from a street thug turned cybered-up sammie, to an archaeologist in the shadows to clear his name, to a shepherd (with dog) who is one step shy of eco-terrorism, to a mystical drummer. Short on Matrix PCs, though.

Well, since you're interested I shot out some pms to some people on the last page of this thread that might be interested in 4a. Although afterwords I realized this last page takes you back to 2014. So we'll see chummer.

Oo oo oo me miss me me

Anyone got a stable copy of chummer?
