Raine
Seeking a gaming group
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! I tend to run roleplay-heavy games set in settings of my own creation, and have been experimenting with making my own props/set pieces! I try to make my games accessible for new players :D I also ban any and all AI generated content. Feel free to reach out if interested in the short campaign or if you just want to chat dnd!

Cityreader
Seeking a book club
I have a busy work life and enjoy escaping by reading. Tend to stick to the same authors such as John Grisham, Rob Rinder and Richard Osman. Have read the Agatha Christie’s many times. Would like to meet other readers in my area.

Seeking a gaming group
Down to meet new people that share my interests! It's been a couple of years since my last 5e campaign and have been feeling the itch recently lol:) Don't have much more TTPRG experience than DND other than a couple sessions of BOTCT, but open to branching out. I'm here to get super nerdy and high fantasy to counteract the corporate hellscape (please let me escape, oh God, oh please). If any groups are looking for an extra member, give me a shout! Swear I'm an excellent tag-along x

Pratham
Seeking a book club
Hi, I’m currently studying FinTech at the University of Essex and living in Colchester. I’ve recently started reading more consistently and have really begun to enjoy it. I’m especially interested in psychology, fiction, and books that make you reflect a little deeper. I’m joining to meet like-minded people, discover new books I wouldn’t normally pick up, and have thoughtful but relaxed discussions. I’m open to different genres and looking forward to learning from others’ perspectives.
