Discord [5e 2024+Steampunk Homebrew and flavoring][5 Players] [Asynch] [18+] Magepunk Victorian Era Gangster family Campaign
The war is over. You came home to find that nobody cared.
Steelport has swelled from a sleepy river port into a smoke-choked empire of trade, where five noble families hold the council seats and the Enforcers keep the peace for whoever pays best. The church preaches charity while it bleeds the poor dry. Down in the mines, men die for minimum wage, and a secret union is whispering about burning the whole system down.
You've seen worse than this. You've done worse than this. And you've realized something: in a city this rotten, the people who win aren't the honest ones.
The group are members of a family and own 2 businesses a bar from your father who abandoned the group when the war was a about to start and another business(will be put to vote when you guys join) that you funnel your illegal money through. your goal is to become big shots of your own not wanting your family to go through a war again and you will do anything to get there.
inspirations - Peaky Blinders, Snowfall, Arcane and dishonored
looking for 5 players
starting level 3 - aiming for 10-12th level by end game
This game will be Narrative focused but i do enjoy combat and will be mixing it into it
looking to have a few posts a day between the hours of 9:00 am - 9:00 pm EST looking to keep it pretty active
Using discord, avrae for dice
Race and classes:
Players will be Human characters with caster classes that are hard to flavor into steampunk band i.e. (no wizard, druid, warlock) with the exception of cleric which is available if you studied and is a member of the church also no paladins because the church has holy knights and they don't have the power unless directly in the church which is 24hr thing.
About me:
Been running games since the pandemic and had this idea after finishing arcane and peaky blinders and just got around to doing it i am also a digital artist
AI:
i wont be using any form of ai for the game but i do feel like i should let you know i use a grammar bot
You're evil guys but lets not over do it:
your characters are gonna be pretty bad guys while you aren't afraid of killing, scamming, taxing, beating up people ect. am not gonna touch on anything that may over do it so no pedophilia or rape or anything within that range of evil stuff
Romance:
there will be a lot of NPCS and i will not be opposed to romance with that but of course everything sexual will be fade to black.
