I'm trying to get a Curse of the Crimson Throne game that I designed for non-tabletop gamers off the ground, specifically designed for people who normally play those free-form forum roleplaying games online. However, I can't seem to get anyone to join unless I have other players. The game is for beginners, so I am controlling elements of what is available and how those elements work (for example, I'm only allowing non-spellcasting versions of the paladin and ranger) which has made me hesitant to ask for players from the traditional tabletop community, but, as one of the few people interested said "Why the hell not?" Would anyone have an interest in joining such a game? I'm trying to get non-gamers to try playing a game, something I'm a gem at in real life, but I'm having trouble with online. If enough people are interested, I'll throw the link up to the site here. It's also an attempt to work in my own houserules or ones from unearthed arcana, like using mana-based casting instead of Vancian magic, which works so much easier in my opinion.

Well cool! Here is an excerpt from the back of 'Curse of the Crimson Throne Player's Guide':
In the shadow of an ailing king, a new ruler gathers power, sending
shockwaves through a populace already plagued by unrest and
pushing the largest city in Varisia to the brink of disaster.
In the face of anarchy, a new band of heroes gathers at the
call of a mysterious patron. Strange magic and mysterious
prophesies set them on the trail of a common foe —a path that
draws them into a struggle to save the city from ruin. Amid
the intrigues of kings and generals, heroes and thieves, it’s
up to these new heroes to decide whether the rule of a
new monarch will usher in a new age of
glory or a reign of chaos.
