This seemed to get some traction in the recent who needs beta testers thread, so I thought I'd put it up generally.

Short version - Dungeons & Dragons with less fighting and more trolley problems, built as a digital platform.

I'm building a non-combat focused TTRPG. There's going to be a persistent world with a small dump of lore each month, and larger world events twice a year. Campaigns are between groups of players in a shared world. We're planning an actual play series and a bunch of other interesting things at the moment as well.

Happy to give any HN readers a free account to play around with.

There's no VTT element and there's no plan to build one; instead it's focused on group storytelling and logging the story, rather than combat and world management.

The world and rule set is very much built to be around levelling the playing field so the GM isn't expected to buy everything and be the centre of the world. Instead, players have as much agency as the GM does, and the world lore is free to access.

> Dungeons & Dragons with less fighting and more trolley problem

Intrigued! I'm a lapsed GM, largely because of the time commitment required to run a campaign, but this got my attention. Looks like there's enough setting and rules to spur games onward but not enough to constrain or overwhelm.

Registered an account and will look into it in more detail tomorrow!
