[Online][Other] Give Earthdawn a Try! Players needed

Player(s) wanted

Have you ever wanted to try a D&D alternative, something with more crunch than rolling a d20 to determine things? Or perhaps you already are familiar with the system and want to hop back in. Either way, give Earthdawn a try!

I'm looking to put together a group, and need 2 more players. Newbies and vets. Scheduling wise, we're still pretty flexible, nothing defined yet. LGTB+ friendly. Ideally we'd be using roll20 or theater of the mind.

I want to give a brief summary on Earthdawn since most people haven't heard of it and I'd love to introduce some new people to it's mechanics. Earthdawn is a fantasy post-apocalyptic setting, taking place some time after a magical catastrophe known as The Scourge. Instead of using a d20 + modifiers to determine things, the Step System is used. The mechanics have more crunch than most other ttrpgs that I've seen at least. That's a drawback to some, but I love it so much more than other ttrpgs that I've played through, it's worth giving a shot.

Please message me if you're interested.
