I have played in 1 oneshot but have been listening to some actual play podcasts if various types for a few years (girls who don't dnd, royal housewives of dnd, pretending to be people (DG/cthulu?), jesters of ravenloft and Dark Dice, all excellent and highly recommend). I would like to play more myself, perhaps with oneshots to start off.

Rhian

Seeking a book club

Hi! I'm a 20 something book reader in Chorlton, Manchester. A curious bookworm, snack enthusiast, and general lover of a cosy evening. I work in publishing and read cross-genre and am always looking to expand my reading horizons. If you’re into chats about Taylor Swift, books, and the occasional espresso martini, we’ll get along brilliantly.

Charlie + Friends

Seeking a gaming group

We are a fairly long standing group of players who have slowly had members filter in and out over the past several years. We are looking for more players for some oneshots and maybe a campaign eventually, no worries if you're new or haven't played in a while. We run everything from long standing campaigns to oneshots and like to explore systems beyond DnD 5e (though we do run and play that too). There is a range of player and DMing experience in the group and we all take turns running and playing, so we get a nice mix of genres, themes, and systems, though there is no pressure to run. We are based in central Manchester.
