Adventures in the Dolmenwood

Roleplay focused

Newbie friendly
Hi folks! I'm Steve, and I'm looking for 3–4 players to join a Dolmenwood campaign. There's already one player onboard, with the aim of having five total — so when someone inevitably can't make it, we've still got a good-sized party to adventure with.
The Basics
Wednesday evenings, 19:30–23:00 BST (London, UK time)
Online via Foundry VTT + Discord for A/V
The Game
If you don't know it, Dolmenwood is an OSR hex-crawl set in a dark fairy-tale woodland inspired by British folklore. Think enchanted woods, scheming fey, and crumbling ruins rather than epic high fantasy.
The campaign will be completely player-led, emergent gameplay — you decide where to go and what to do, and the story emerges around you. No railroads here.
I run an RP-heavy table where combats are fast, brutal and generally takes a back seat to story and exploration. If you like the idea of talking your way past a hag one minute and running for your life the next, you'll fit right in.
What I Provide
Fully set up Foundry VTT
All the Dolmenwood books — you don't need to buy a thing
A Session Zero to make characters together, set expectations, and make sure everyone vibes before we kick off
Who's a Good Fit?
You're excited about trying something different — OSR plays nothing like modern D&D. You're comfortable with lethal combat — characters can and will die. It's what makes every decision matter. You value roleplay and creative problem-solving over optimised builds and grid tactics.
You enjoy exploration and discovery — poking around a weird mushroom circle or negotiating with a talking fox is just as much "the game" as fighting monsters
If you've never played an OSR style game, don't worry - neither have I 😂 However the rules are simple, the focus is on creativity over crunch, and we'll learn together.
🏳️🌈 This is an LGBTQ+ friendly table. Everyone is welcome, and I expect all players to be respectful and supportive of one another. No exceptions.
About Me (the GM)
I'm Steve, born in the 80s, a kid of the 90s. My references are a mix of Ghostbusters crossed with Anchorman.
I've been GMing for 10 years and recently wrapped up a two-year PF2e Kingmaker campaign. During that time I spread my wings away from modern d20 fantasy combat games and fell down the TTRPG rabbit hole. Sadly, my old group (bar one!) weren't keen on straying from D&D/PF2e — but every cloud has a silver lining. I'm really looking forward to meeting some new people.
