just in ref to your comment - if you want to try 3.5, I also recommend pathfinder 1e, as it is very similar to 3.5 dnd but...with some improvements? they're both more complex systems than 5e though as a heads up.
So sorry for all the haphazard updates and things that aren't really tidied up! I have lots of ideas but also it's Finals Time. for my last semester! so I don't have a lot of time. New as I am to this... it takes me a long time to execute anything. So I am taking little breaks!
yeah twas a reason I started with 5e. Hope I can find a bunch IRL or want to, or I might start one up after my current campaign
