Joined to say I'm interested. But I gots some questions in this muh'.
1) I hear 3.5 is the noob-friendly version. Since this is my first actual DnD game, I'm newer than a factory-sealed copy of Metal Gear Solid 5: The Phantom Pain.
2) Do all of our characters have to be human? I don't usually play human characters.
3) I was in a similar RP. It was like DnD but with freeform combat and no dice, numbers or "builds". I'll get some concepts, but not all of them. This isn't a question.
