FG License: Demo but I will upgrade immediately if I find a game that works for me
Time Zone: Eastern US
Day(s) of week, frequency, and time: Friday and Saturday evening are my best times to play although technically Wednesday evening works. Weekly or bi-weekly are both fine by me.
Term: long term
Voice: I am able to use voice and I have Discord and Skype downloaded

Game System Preferred: 4e is my system of choice but a non-TotM 13th Age(especially like Glorantha or Amethyst) would be great as well. I would be up for 5e if it was something like a science-fantasy game or Birthright or something like that.
Game System Experience: I have played every edition of D&D from 2e to 5e with 4e being my most played of them all. I also have some experience with 13th Age and V:tM.
Fantasy Grounds Experience: I am absolutely new to Fantasy Grounds.

Character Type Preferred: For 4e I tend to play controllers and leaders with my favorite classes being Shaman, Wizard, Warlock, Bard, and really weird Vampire/other class hybrids. For 5e I tend towards Sorcerers and Bards. For 13th Age I tend towards casters like Wizard and Necromancer but I really like Psion, Warlock, and Abomination from Dark Pacts and Ancient Secrets.
About me: I am a long time player of RPGs of various kinds starting with 2e AD&D when I was a teenager and enjoying all sorts of games whether D&D or not. When it comes to games I tend to occupy a middle ground between hardcore RPer and power gamer in that I try to balance having a great well roleplayed character that is also very effective when things go down hill. I tend to adapt pretty easily to the social mores of a group but in games where there are players who are trying to pull one over on the DM in bad faith, I tend to become a little bit of a rules lawyer in favor of the DM.

Have to run to work right now, but when I'm back I'll answer in more detail to this post. I'm in the process of organizing several 4e games.

Allright, now I'm back.
So I'm in the process of organizing the following two games:

A) Thursdays, start and end somewhere in between 4PM and 10PM EST, D&D4e, weekly game, voice only (but with FG of course), using Discord, fresh start at level 1, setting not yet known, we have a GM and 3 players currently, wanted to decide on a setting/campaign when we have more players.

B) Fridays, start and end somewhere in between 4PM and 11PM EST, D&D4e, playing every other week, voice only (but with FG of course), using Discord, join at level 2, Dark Sun setting with a bunch of house rules, we have a GM and 4 players currently.
The Friday game is pending on job decisions the GM has to make, maybe it will not be continued at all, maybe only during winter and be paused during summer.

If interested PM me, I'll send an invite to the Discord groups. (I'm not the GM in either group, just helping organizing, so the last word about joining or not is up to her, but I'll be happy to get you connected)

There is a scheduling conflict for me and Thursdays but let me think on the Friday game. I'm not normally a big Dark Sun player but I will think about it.

There might be another option for Fridays, a Forgotten Realms game (4e), let me ask the GM first though.

Edit: Asked him he'd be okay with it.

C) Fridays, start 9pm (GMs time zone) mountain standard time (utc -7) the game will always start between 9:00 and 9:30 GMs time (utc -7) so that is 4:00 to 4:30am UTC. D&D4e, playing every other week, voice only (but with FG of course), using Discord, join at level 2, Forgotten Realms Setting.

This will be on alternating Fridays with the Dark Sun game, so it's possible to join both.

Could you tell me more about this game? Because I think I would be interested in joining that.
