Hi, I would class myself as a beginner/intermediate campaigner. I play weekly with a couple of friends in the icespire peak campaign. I have my own dice, character immersion and bundles if imagination. It's the first time in decades I've played and thoroughly love it. I'd like to learn more from seasoned campaigners and appreciate DMs storytelling.

Seeking a book club
Hi, Delilah, I image you already find your book club but I would like to contact you if you are still interested. I am from Spain, moved to Leith 2 years ago and since I moved I struggle to go back into reading... I am also 30 and reading was always my favourite hobby. I study Journalism and Humanities and I am passionate about writting, art, dance, history and phicology. I read diferent genders but my favourite are non-fiction cotemporany, poetry, essays and classics (I ended up reading mostly women authors. I would love to discover british and international authors but I really don't care, the main thing for me is having the opportunity to make friendship who share similar interests and go back into reading. Would be lovely to meeting you. Best wishes, Eli

Seeking a book club
Hi, I’m Chuks, a software engineer currently based in Edinburgh. I enjoy reading books that challenge my thinking and help me learn new perspectives. My favourite genres include personal development, technology, psychology, business, history, and occasionally fiction with strong characters and meaningful themes. I’m looking to join a book group because I’d like to meet like-minded people, have thoughtful discussions, discover books I might not otherwise pick up, and broaden my horizons through different viewpoints. I enjoy learning from others and believe books are a great way to start interesting conversations. Ideally, I’d like to meet once or twice a month, depending on the group’s schedule. I’m also interested in making new friends and becoming part of a welcoming community of readers who enjoy sharing ideas and recommendations. I look forward to discussing great books and meeting fellow book lovers.

Seeking a book club
Hi there. I'm Miles, 30, from Australia, and I moved to Edinburgh 6 months ago. I'd like to find or start a book club where we all read the same book and then talk about it afterwards. I mostly enjoy reading literary fiction and poetry, but I’m open to most genres as long as there’s plenty to discuss.

Seeking a gaming group
Hello :3 im 17 and use they/them pronouns. Im a begginer DM of one year, my campaign is on a pause rn so im looking for another group to run. I have experience with oneshots too, and my DMing style is a mix of silly (i take inspiration from legends of advantris whom im sure you know) and rich/immersive worldbuilding (as i am a writer too) in which i also love to work with my players to merge their charecters with the wordbuilding. I've got ALOT of free time on my hands, and am happy to travel around west lothian-glasgow area (if anything comes of this site id probably run my sessions in ancient robot games, edinburgh). Also my sessions are always begginer freindly!! (meaning asking questions is open and theres more explinations on mechanics etc). Plus im.. maybe a little addicted to collecting dice so if ur a dice dragon too im sure we'll get along lol. If ur a player or a group in need of a DM, hit me up!! I promise im cool (^w^)

Seeking a gaming group
31 years old - Still a beginner, but I've played a few one shot Dnd games over the last few years. I have a young baby at home, and I would love to find some people in a similar place/ busy schedule to schedule some games. Eventually, I would love to DM, but I'm happy to be a player while I'm still learning the ropes. I'm primarily interested in DnD, but I'm open to other games! Mostly, I'm drawn to the storytelling aspects of the game, so any world that feels immersive would be welcome.
