The template stuff is below. The stuff above is more important.
I will be starting a new campaign every other Friday evening, 7:00 US Eastern time. The campaign will be players' choice: A Cyberpunk campaign set in the Altered Carbon (more closely aligned with the book series than the Netflix show) universe and using Cypher System rules or a high-magic Fantasy campaign set in a homebrew universe on a world that is "young" in terms of gods, species, magic, etc.
For either one, my ideal player count is 4-5. I have one committed and up to two others whose commitment I grow weary of waiting for.
If you are interested in playing, please answer the following:
Which system / setting would you prefer?
Would either system / setting prevent you from joining?
What is your preferred split for combat vs. not-combat (exploration, rp, puzzles)?
Can you commit to every other Friday, assuming I don't suck as a DM?
Are you willing to use video chat via Discord (no costs) and do you have or will you acquire a webcam to do so?
FG License: I'll have Ultimate so you won't need anything beyond Demo
Game System: Cypher or 5e, see above
Time Zone: US Eastern (currently GMT-4)
Day of week and time: Friday, 7:00 pm
If new game, planned start date: 30 August or 06 September
Planned Duration & Frequency: Every other week, 4-5 hours
Term: Long-term
Text or Voice: Voice with video required
Voice software used: Discord
Will this be recorded and/or live streamed? No
Roleplay & Combat mix: Initial thought is about an even split, but can flex based upon setting selected & player preference.
Number of Players in game & needed: Ideal size is 4-5. Need 3-4, probably.
Character starting level & equipment: Initial level. Cypher doesn't have levels but an intro character. 5e, first level.
Character restrictions: Depends on setting.
Details of your scenario:
Cypher / CyberPunk
The year is 2707. Death is an inconvenience. Humanity has begun colonizing the galaxy. But it's not all wine and roses. Death was the great equalizer. No matter how wealthy or powerful a person became, their death reset the game. Today, the wealthiest and most powerful are also effectively immortal. There is no reset. There is only the unending accumulation of wealth and power by the very few, the corruption that derives from it, and the suffering they inflict upon everyone else.
Someone needs to reset the game.
This will be a highly political campaign with thought-provoking and potentially uncomfortable subject matter.
5e / High-Magic Fantasy
The world and magic are young. Gods walk among mortals. The people of the world have yet to face a challenge beyond their own greed and pettiness, but that’s all about to change. Your characters will become the legends all future legends strive to emulate.
If they don’t destroy the world first.
Link to Gamecalendar page: I'll figure out how to create one of these at some point. Objective is to start 30 Aug with Session 0 (intros & character rolling), do Session 1 (first adventure) 06 Sep, then every other week from there. If we can't do Session 0 until 06 Sep, then we go straight to the every other week cadence.
