Exploring the Dark Eye

UPDATE: WORKING TO GET AN ENGLISH-LANGUAGE CHARACTER SHEET!

Germany's great RPG, now in English!

Let me know if you have experience playing/GM'ing the system.

Willing to walk away from D&D and enter a different system entirely with its own setting and rich history?
Willing to explore the world of the Dark Eye (5e) with a GM new to the system?

The game will be in English. I am working to use special English language character sheets!

My best hope is that you're a mature player who likes exploring new systems. I'm hoping to play this for 8-16 weeks.
