6 months later, I realised I needed to refocus my campaign from a bunch of mad glossolalia.

This is literally just Changeling: the Dreaming.

it felt more like two examples posited, to me.

genuinely, how are these not mutually exclusive, then?

That’s ST, not DM.

Come play World of Darkness, where that’s the main focus!

I’m over here enjoying Changeling: the Dreaming.

Technically not entirely new, but I’m hoping to introduce my group to Changeling: the Dreaming. It’s a personal favourite system, and I think it’s probably going to work better than D&D for what I personally want to run.
