Seeking a gaming group
Experienced GM for a number of TTRPG systems but most proficient with D&D 5e (pre-2024) with a number of multi-year campaigns under my belt running them and as a player. I have also been fortunate enough to be a player in a number of multi-year campaigns in other systems such as Stars Without Number, 13th Age, Traveller, Vampire The Masquerade, Exalted etc. I love a good mixture of RP, Social Encounters, Exploration and meaningful Combat that isn't a simple dungeon crawl. I prioritise the collaborative story telling of the group above the absolute following of the rules but do not shy away from the necessary "crunch" where ever applicable. I learn systems very quickly and ensure that I create characters that are mechanically sound to assist the party but try my utmost to make character with interesting flair that engages with the rest of the party. For IRL groups, I'm the "drinks guy" and happy to contribute to the table to keep us refresh. I am generally available weekday evenings depending on the days. I won't be able to commit to any weekend play, unfortunately. I'm based very west London (not too far from Heathrow) and can commit for IRL games that are a driveable distance.

Hi! I'm looking to find a book club and meet new people. I live in the Kingston area but am open to options around London. I'll give anything a try but mostly read Scandi noir (or similar), military history and spy thrillers :)

I used to play 5e regularly but since moving to London I haven't had a group to play with, some experience as a DM with an improvise and note down style rather than fully cemented paths, all the better for you to de-rail <3 west london

I grew up playing 3.5D&D and played a little of 5e. I now prefer more narrative focus systems. I'm really interested in Call Of Cthulhu at the moment and my hope is to find a group to play, possibly live. I'm in north London.

Seeking a book club
I'm an avid reader with a passion for sci-fi and horror, but I also enjoy diving into the classics, historical novels, and fantasy. I'm also fascinated by modern retellings of Greek and ancient myths, always looking for fresh takes on timeless stories.

Hi, I've recently got back into reading again and fallen back in love with getting lost in a book. I enjoy all genres, but my favourite go to would have to been fantasy or romance. Looking to join a book club either monthly or twice a month

Seeking a book club
I recently became obsessed again with reading . I love it so much and I would like to discuss the meaningful and interesting things I’ve learnt from my books . I read books about psychology, self development and sometimes fiction books . I love books that you can learn something meaningful from and those that make your mind wonder into deep thought and fantasy
