Gwen (Blaydon-on-Tyne)
Seeking a book club
I’ve loved reading since childhood & now have more time to indulge. I’ve read different fiction genres from thrillers, mystery, occasional easy going chick lit, but have been enjoying historical fiction for a while. I am fairly new to the area & looking to find a local book group to chat about books we read & broaden my horizons, socially & in literature.

Roonie (Newcastle upon Tyne)
Seeking a gaming group
(NB, Any pronouns, born 1997) I've played in 2 irl campaigns before that weren't finished. I enjoy the lore and character-driven aspects, short games and one-shots preferred. I like soft Scifi best, but am open to a lot of genres! I've played Root on PC once and enjoyed it a lot. C: Relevant interests that inspire a lot of my tastes are Transformers, Sonic, 90's Comics, I liked to read the Warriors and Guardians of GaHoole books as a kid as well.

Lu Davies (: (North Shields)
Seeking a gaming group
I'm Lu, I'm 17 (18 soon!) and i love playing dnd, I've been playing since i was 14 but haven't had a solid group in a while. I usually play sorcerers because that magic system makes the most sense to me. I like joking and being stupid but i can be serious for a campaign if the rest of the group is. i have ADHD and ASD so please forgive me if my attention is a little lacking. I have DM'd a couple times before and prefer to work with groups no bigger than 4 including myself, but that's not a hard rule.
