Character idea for bad English (lemmy.world)

My mom is learning English and what she really needs is practice, thought it would me fun for her to join a campaign where her character has a broken understanding of common. so she's always on character when she asks for help.

plus, hopefully a place for her to talk to people away from whatever Facebook brain rot is giving her.

would anyone be interested in playing like that?

As a fellow ESL speaker, I sympathize. Have you thought of The Expanse RPG? She could play a belter.

probably. I'm wondering where to find an online group for her

I'm down for some sci-fi. I just don't have appetite for fantasy. Roll20 has listings for many systems, there's discord, there's startplaying.games for paid GMs.

That sounds awesome. I'd be down, but I generally prefer in-person games, and I doubt you're in my area.
