Chloe (roundaboutrobyn) (Birmingham)

Seeking a gaming group

Hi, it's nice to meet you! I'm a tabletop player (21F) with around 8 years of on and off experience and I’ve played D&D 5e 2014/2024 the most. I’ve also played a few smaller systems and would be willing to try something different. I don't usually mind what tone the game takes, I just like to be aware beforehand so I can plan my character around it. I want to make friends and get back into playing tabletop games more regularly so please get in touch! I’m happy to play in Birmingham or Sutton Coldfield :) I would also be interested in learning to DM, but would probably use a pre-written module just to get to grips with it.

Jake Howe (Coventry)

Gaming group

I am an experienced GM and own a number of TTRPG systesm across multiple genres; fantasy, horror, sci-fi, murder mystery etc. Moved to Coventry about a year ago and am looking to run some games in-person. I am currently hoping to run some sessions of the ALIEN TTRPG soon. I also have the likes of Morkborg, Dark Heresy, Spire: The City must Fall, Brindlewood Bay etc. I tend to change up what I run regularly. I am happy to take anyone who would be interested in trying out something a little different.

Melissa (Solihull)

Seeking a book club

Hi, I'm Melissa, a 22-year-old Philosophy graduate currently working as a Barista. I would love to join a bookclub to meet new friends, and have people to share all my bookish thoughts and theories with! I mostly read literary fiction, classics, and dystopia - as well as some non-fiction, especially nature writing. My other hobbies are arts and crafts, crochet, hiking, camping and creative writing.

Melissa recommends:

On the Calculation of Volume (Parts I-IV)
by Solvej Balle | Learn more and buy
This book series (split into 7 parts, with only the first 4 currently translated to English) takes a unique twist on the classic Groundhog Day trope. The story follows a young woman named Tara who is stuck repeating the same November day on repeat. Perfect if you like books with a quiet but unique plot, that dig deep into the protagonist's emotions and thoughts when faced with an unusual situation. P.S. book 2 is my personal favourite, in which Tara travels around Europe, attempting to recreate the seasons by visiting different climates, while still stuck in the same November day.

Rich (Coventry)

Seeking a gaming group

I've played lots of boardgames and am interested in trying RPGs. I keep watching Quinns Quest reviews on YouTube and it's making me want to try his recommendations, but up for learning the ropes with the classics (DnD etc) too.

John (Halesowen)

Seeking a gaming group

Have limited experience as a DnD player but have been DMing a homebrew 5e campaign for the best part of a year now so hopefully I understand how not to be an annoying player for a DM. I'd love to get involved as a player so I don't slowly become a Forever DM.

Birch (Birmingham)

Seeking a gaming group

24M, I've mainly run games of DnD but also have experience with other TRPG systems like blades in the dark. Now I'm wanting to get back into role playing and looking for a gaming group to play with. I'm totally happy to join as a player or run another game. I don't mind going back to DnD but I would really love to give another system a go!

JJ (Wolverhampton)

Seeking a book club

Looking to link with like-minded readers to talk all things books and to build my network along the way and all that jazz. It sounds really straight forward, but I'm just after someone to shoot the shit (can we swear on here?) about books I've read and what they're reading too. Books are incredible but my circle are not massive readers (their loss!) so would like to connect with people who are into the same books and go from there! Thrillers, whether they be crime, psychological, espionage, is my genre of choice, but very much open to exploring new avenues. Reach out! 32 | M | WV1/Tettenhall

Icarus 17
by Charles Cumming | Learn more and buy
Book #4 of the Box 88 series and once you're in, you're in for the ride. It's set in Greece, Montenegro and a few others in between. An incredible backdrop for a brilliant piece of work.

ReinhardVonLohengramm (Solihull)

Seeking a gaming group

24M looking for a chill group me and my girlfriend can join as in-person players. Both experienced players, first played a campaign in 5e around a decade ago. Would prefer 5e but happy to try out any fantasy system (pathfinder, vagabond, etc) or older dnd systems. Have a little experience DM'ing but mostly online so I lack a lot of stuff for it in-person! Any mix of roleplay/combat is fine, though the online group I play with usually slightly murder hobo it up so I'm more experienced with combat focused campaigns lol.
