Childern's of sorrow's

i have experience in being a player and DMed a oneshot but i want to step it up with a homebrew campaign (i say homebrew but some of its element are taken from a campaign book and got repurposed :p), i already have me girlfriend as a player so now i need 1 to 4 more people to start the game :v its gonna be from 2 hours to 3 at max, starting from 7PM or 8PM depending on how busy everyone is. "A city without the sound of children playing is like a forest with no animals, alive but empty"   Quote from a book titled the Joyless city written by Albert Leobard about The city of Linolynn.  that's all i will write about the campaign because i don't want to spoil anything else :p, also i tend to lean in more toward darker setting and such nothing too gruesome or bleak, just wanted to give a disclaimer!
