Andrew
Seeking a gaming group
I'm 23 and recently moved from Ireland. I'm looking to start a group to play regularly in a space in the city like Fanboy3. I've played in and ran TTRPG games for a long time, recently mostly online. I'd really like to find players interested in a narrative driven game. I'm open to learning new systems and have a few that I'm seeking to try out but DnD is where I have the most experience and I'd be happy to run it for a group. LGBTQIA+ Friendly.

I’m 18 I’ve been DMing on the regular for the last 5 years, unfortunately that group has come to an end with us all moving to go to university so I would like to try being a player again.

Seeking a book club
Hey! I’m 26 (female) and obsessed with horror, crime, mystery, and thrillers. Always down to swap recs or dive into new genres—open to just about anything if it keeps me turning pages! Anyone down to read some of these genres together? Can be online or in person x I just need someone to talk about some of these shocking reads with 😫

Luke
Seeking a gaming group
I'm a 31 year old software engineer in Manchester. I have watched many DnD YouTube videos (lots of Critical Role and Dimension 20!) and I've been really motivated to get involved with a game! Lots of my mates have tried making games but its never worked out. I've made several characters and I'd love to start telling stories with them!

Seeking a book club
Hi, i'm 23 and I've been obsessed with reading my whole life! I love mysteries, psychological thrillers and crime books but in-between reading those, I like to unwind with a chick-lit/lighthearted romance book. I have also been loving reading general fiction books these past couple of years, specifically more emotional/sad ones. Some of my favourite authors are Holly Jackson, Jodi Picoult, Alice Feeney, and John Marrs. I'm looking to join a relaxed book group, to meet likeminded individuals who share my love of reading! :)

Erik
Seeking a gaming group
Never played before (except once in my teens when none of us players really "got" it so to speak), but have listened to a fair few Actual Play podcasts and such. Not set on any particular system, so open to any suggestion! (Including the new Cosmere RPG!) Looking for a table that can be lighthearted and silly but still respect the worldbuilding and story.
