This is a home-brew campaign with a somewhat sci-fi theme along with a hint of sandbox. It runs on a custom system, which I just refer to as UNDND since everyone keeps thinking I'm doing 5E, so it will contain a lot of custom content, and it will be a lot to take in at first. However, I've taken a great deal of time to change things to bridge the gap slightly, such as a 5Eesque class system with a maximum level of 12. There are also ephemeras, which are essentially cantrips and feats that you can have. And the turn system operates differently as a turn is now split into two things: a half action and a full action. The grappling system has also been improved, so you can now discombobulate, stomp, joint lock,and pin. There is also wall jumping, but I won't get into the nitty-gritty of it all. But again, there will be a lot of new stuff to learn.
Instructions are outlined in the handbook which I can send over on discord, I'm also available most of the time for questions that come up.
The basic synopsis is that you have been "recruited" by S.A.W. PMC Inc., which definitely isn't an acronym for anything. You can either go along with "the company" or do your own thing during missions. Here is the lore primer from the handbook.

Greetings, sleeper, or, should we say, new honorary member of S.A.W. PMC, Inc.
You may be thinking of two things right now: "Wow, I can't believe I got into S.A.W. PMC" or "Wait, I don't remember signing up for Jack ████ and I've just been kidnapped!"
Don't worry! We have already prepared a document that is scientifically certified to get you right up to speed with current events! DO NOT LOOK AWAY FROM THE SCREEN.
"The year is 2300, Terra has fallen, and most of the population has been reduced to shadows on the ground due to man's ire towards each other. The once lush soil is now reduced to ash and sand. Luckily, before this, the progenitor of ICOIA had managed to establish a large orbital station in the orbit of Lua originally intended for research, inadvertently saving humanity from extinction, and decades later they began sending out ships into deep space to find a new home. Soon new factors were found on the playing board: the United Federation, a militaristic dictatorship; Empyrean Dynamics, a megacorp conglomerate; the Epsilon League extraterrestrials hailing from Sol's neighbor; and last but not least, the International Committee of Interstellar Affairs. To learn more about Terran history and its revelations, please purchase the full version."

Well, we hope that was a very educational experience. As per company standards, we have prepared a set of equipment for you in the armory. We forgot to mention this, but you will be operating in a legally gray area, so you're not allowed to refer to or discuss topics on S.A.W. PMC, Inc. in any way whatsoever. You will also be required to rip off any faction patches from any uniforms you loot so that we can avoid any legal ramifications. As a side note, you aren't protected by any wartime laws, but those don’t apply to you either, so it's really just fair game for you. In the meantime, we suggest you get ready for deployment, as new contracts are going to be coming in soon.
Sessions happen in the afternoons on the weekends. PST time zone PM me on Discord at corallinifileja
There is a lot of information missing here, such as what day you wish to run this, what time, what system is being used for it, etc. And those are just the basics. Its an interesting concept, and could be done in a number of systems. Hope to see an update from you ^-^
Yes, sorry for the late reply I don't get notifications. The day and time is usually voted on in a specific channel in the server but it's usually Sunday.
