Hello! I'm Raine (they/them), I'm a 21 yo forever DM looking to run a short campaign while my main campaign goes on break!

Sign in to contactAl (Chelmsford)
Seeking a book club
I am 21. I like to read most genres to be honest but I suppose I tend to favour fantasy, sci-fi and (mainly queer) romance. I'm also starting a philosophy degree so I would also enjoy talking to anyone interested in that too. My main areas of interest with that are Ancient philosophers (particularly Greek), Free Will and Theology. I want to get better at actually describing what I like or dislike about a book, rather than just reading it and moving on to the next one.

I have quite a few board games, but I’ve never really had the chance to play any! I’d also really love to try D&D, although I’ve never played before.
