Free Roleplaying Community ( http://www.freeroleplay.org/ ) might be good place to start. Note however that the folks at freeroleplay.org don't seem to consider CC licenses to be free, in the OSF sense.

They seem to use the original FSF sense of "Free".

They recommend GPL. Since you seem to target both software and literary works GPL might be a better choice for you.

Certainly if the "source code" can be identified this might be a good solution. Or there's the OGL which despite its faults (the real ones, not the FUD ones) has a large body of gaming-related work already under it, is well known and understood, and is reasonably robust.
