[LFP] Godbound, a lighter version of Exalted (or so I'm told) Saturdays

Time and Place The game is held weekly on Saturdays at 8:20 AM PST-8 on Skype and lasts about 4 hours&nbsp; this a voice game requiring a mic but nothing else . Overview/Intro Hi, my name is Chris I am a 22 year old College Kid and I'm looking for one or two more players for my Saturday game of Godbound .We restructured an old Stars Without Number Campaign after one player left for the Air force, and recently another player started streaming professionally so I'm trying to fill the gaps. We currently have 3 players(European) and me as the GM(American). The Campaign just started and we're only two sessions in and nothing all that significant has occurred beyond plot development which I will cover for you. The System Godbound is a system in which players take control of the words of creation and become proto-gods that shape the world around them as they pursue lofty goals. The system, made by Kevin Crawford, is currently in beta but it is completely playable as stated by the creator himself and a basic version of the beta can be found for free here if you'd like to take a look. <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4qCWY8UnLrcSUhNY" rel="nofollow">https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4qCWY8UnLrcSUhNY</a>... I'd be more than happy to share the most up to date version if you join the group. The Campaign We are playing a semi-historical campaign starting in 1095 Asia Minor right before the First Crusade occurs. From this year on we split into an alternate timeline, right before the start of the campaign (about a month) a panic takes the Church as the Pope claims that he can no longer hear God's will, religious fervor takes the populace as the first crusaders sent by pleading churches arrive in Byzantium to reclaim the Holy Lands in a bid to to re-connect with God.&nbsp; The historical aspect of the campaign is more inspiration than fact so you don't have to be a history buff to enjoy or play the game (God knows I'm not),. The game includes magic, cults, other Godbound, Angels, demons, monstrosities, great beasts, you name it and your godling will be thrown into the mix as tension boils and the world turns in on itself. My Play-style I like to have fun with the campaign admittedly I'm more of a narrator GM than an actor GM, aka my voices suck. But I like to build worlds and have players get in their and screw with things. At the end of session if my players didn't have fun I didn't have fun, and this is my general "philosophy" about the way I run my games. I do like having a lighter campaign with darker enemies, with that in mind there is no explicit sexual violence in the campaign its something that doesn't occur in the spoken narrative or to the players in any way, shape or form. I know its weird to explicitly say this but I've had a few rough experiences with GM's so I thought I'd get it out of the way here. Applying If you'd like to join you can either post here or PM me, I'd like to know a little about yourself, rpg exp, age ,etc.Second why you're interested in playing this game, what you'd like to do why you think it sounds neat those kinds of things. If you message me I do want to have a Skype interview nothing huge just a 10min back and forth to see if we can tolerate each other and if you would fit in with the group, think of it as a preview you're interviewing me as much as I am you. Any other questions just ask.
Some applicants have mentioned they can't see the free version of the rules from this link. You can search on google "Godbound free version" and the first site should be "a rough manuscript" this will lead you to the free pdf. I'm Still vetting btw if you want to play you can still get in, looking for a max of 5 players but no concrete players have been chosen yet.
