So recently I've been binge-reading Lumberjanes (Noelle Stevenson; Grace Ellis; Shannon Watters; Kat Leyh; Faith Erin Hicks, from Boom! Studios) and I really love the feel of it.
Specifically in the comics these are young women from all different walks of life coming together at summer camp to earn badges and make friends. There are

have even made an appearance. The books are playful and silly and really heart-warming.
I'd like to get in on a game like that. The system itself doesn't matter too much to me, but for sake of ease I'd suggest something very simple that won't get in the way of the awesome things we do. We should not be the Roanoke cabin group, but instead we'll make our own characters that will interact with the world at large.
Alternatively, I'd like to see a fantasy adventure game with a similar upbeat feel. It doesn't mean we won't encounter danger and terrible things, but the focus of the game would be on friendship and working together, about the bonds between the adventurers whether they win or lose. With this kind of game I'd like to see Pathfinder or 5e D&D, but I'm open to thoughts!
Thanks for looking. :)
