I may have something for you, 5e (proper 5e, not the new thinly-disguised 6e). Here's a few details... 1) Text Game. This
is usually the main deal-breaker for a lot of folk, so getting it out
of the way first. I run my games by text, not voice/video. Sounds like this one won't be an issue for you... 2) Alternate Saturdays
at 11:00 AM Pacific Time (So I think 2PM Eastern?). Due to my schedule this game runs every two
weeks. I used to run five games weekly, but I'm six months post-stroke and still recovering; I've
been forced to cut back, so my two Saturday and Sunday games were dialed
back to every other week. Next game, Feb 1. 3)
Home brew game, but set in the published setting of Tal'Dorei, from
Critical Role. If you're familiar, we're about 13 years past the Chroma
Conclave, with enough of our own history that most of the later events
in Critical Role's games won't happen, or at least not the same way. I
don't expect extensive knowledge of the world, but there are a few
details characters can't not know, so I expect players to use google to get up to speed on if they
don't know. For ex, everyone knows about the Chroma Conclave , so a
player needs to look that up if they don't know, and decide how
much/little they may know, and what - if any - experience they had on
the edges of that situation. I call out those details in Bold Italics so
players know they are things to make sure they're up to speed on.
Googling these terms should bring a cornucopia of data to pick and
choose from. 4)
Shared World. This game is one of three concurrent games I run in this
setting. Events from one can and have affected the other two, and likely
will again. Some of the crews have even met in rare crossover sessions! 5)
The above-mentioned stroke recovery CAN mean missing a
session on short notice. That hasn't happened in months, but I'd be a
fool to discount the possibility. It also means I type slower, with a few more
typos. Text is a slow medium, and we all accept or even prefer it, but
I'm a bit slower than that. 6)
Also the usual disclaimer: All my games AND my discord server to
support the games are as inclusive as possible. Anyone with an issue
with that should find elsewhere to be. If all that hasn't turned you away, LMK with a DM. I'm happy to further discuss The Brass Dragon Circus and Traveling Sideshow .
