Alex

Seeking a gaming group

Looking for a group to play D&D3.5e (or PF1E with allowance for 3.5e books if you're willing to go that far). Have some experience playing online, but haven't been able to play in years. Love trying to optimise a character build, but I am happy to play with minimal optimisation too. Preferably in Derby, but I could probably do Nottingham as well. Depending on travel costs other nearby cities/towns are also feasible.

Luke

Seeking a gaming group

Hey guys, My name is Luke, I am a representative of a d&d social group which regularly does three to five tables a week at the Carnero Lounge in Derby on Tuesdays and Thursdays, we welcome all comers who want to try out d&d or looking for a regular group to our growing community. We impose no fees ourselves for joining the group or playing, can even provide character sheets and welcoming of all players of different experience. We mainly play 5e 2014 rules. We have been running games for three years now and are on our second campaign.

Ashe

Seeking a gaming group

GM looking for players to add to existing groups and/or entirely new groups. I've played a lot of 5E and PF2E but am no longer as interested in playing them, looking for players deeply interested in making characters and enjoying deep and rewarding roleplaying in a variety of games. I'm non binary so if you are right wing in any way at all then this isn't the group for you
