Find a 5e group that fits your schedule

The Talewrite Lobby is where players meet. Every table looking for players lists its rules, tone, pace, content rating and open seats, and you can ask to join with one click.

Why play-by-post makes it easier

Because everyone posts when they can, your group doesn't need to share a time zone or a free evening. Night owls, parents and people on the other side of the world can all play in the same game.

Or let games come to you

Post a listing saying what you're looking for, and hosts can invite you. You can also start your own table and recruit from the Lobby.

Know what you're joining

Every table carries a content rating (Everyone, Teen or Mature) and content warnings, and paid seats always show the price before you join. The community is for players 18 and older.

Price

Your first 25 posts are free. After that it's $9.99 once for lifetime access: keep playing and host your own games. Lifetime access isn't unlimited AI: it includes a one-time starter batch of AI for games you host, and after that hosts add AI credit or subscribe. Only the host pays for the AI, so players at an AI table never pay for it.
