Toni

Seeking a book club

I'm a 37 year old housewife who enjoys reading fantasy such as dark academia, YA and dark romance. I enjoy Brandon Sanderson's various books including his adult series' and his YA ones, James Pattersons YA books as well as well known books such as Forth Wing. I also enjoy what some would class as children's books with authors such as Darren Shan, Garth Nix and Derek Landy. I enjoy dystopian books. I love exploring new concepts and new characters. I also watch alot of Anime as I feel like they're able to explore for concepts than regular TV does. Dislike biographies, mystery books and adult horror.

Born in 1968, and have been a member of the Wallsend Adventurer's Role-play Group (W.A.R.P.) since 2014. I enjoy playing a variety of games, TTRPG, Computer games and board games including D&D, Palladium fantasy, Rifts and T.M.N.T, WHFRP, Alternity, Cyberpunk 2020, Shadowrun, Vaesen, Call of Cthulhu and both World of and Chronicles of Darkness. BG3, Scrabble, Kings Cribbage, Risk, Axis & Allies, Carcassonne, Talisman and Munchkin. I have also GM'd a couple of games (a short D&D game, Palladium Fantasy, Palladium Rifts and SLA Industries) and have a modest collection of TTRPG's and board games. I am hoping to find either a new group, ideally one which ,doesn't meet on a Sunday, or people interested in joining W.A.R.P. (which meets on Sundays in Walkerville).

Seeking a gaming group

62F I have played D&D on and off for a long time. Not very good but willing to learn .I enjoy the role play and banter. I play video games like Skyrim, Dragons Age and Vikings so I definitely have a genre although I am willing to try anything. I'm looking for people that enjoy a bit of escapist fun.

Erin

Seeking a gaming group

New to the TTRPG world only played in one game previously and had to drop out due to work issues, looking to get back into it. Know a lot of random lore but shaky on how to actually play, the roleplay aspect is a lure for me as a bit of escapism but also happy to play in a non rp heavy game too :)

Hi, looking to get together with real people face to face to discuss and recommend books to each other.

Eleanor

Seeking a book club

I’m in my 50s and am looking for people who would be interested in getting together once a month or so in a sociable setting for an evening book club. The aim would be to cover thoughtful and well-written classic or modern fiction. (I don’t generally enjoy romance, fantasy, science fiction or crime myself, so I’d want the focus to generally lean away from genre fiction). Ideally the venue would be in North Shields or Tynemouth, but I would consider alternating venues to suit everyone in the North Tyneside area. Any takers?

Seeking a gaming group

Hiya, so I'm Kyle, been a massive fan of D&D for many years, but only recently took the plunge and started to really delve in, and now I'm at the point where I'd love to maybe attend my first ever IRL game. So I'm looking for a group near me that'd be open to a new adventurer joing their table...

condog

Seeking a gaming group

Hi I've played TTRPGS since Uni, mostly playing DND5e but have experience in other systems like WHFRP, Alien, Star Trek (Mophideus), Challenger and many others. When I was younger I liked to hack and create my own systems and have even play tested and supported in the development of a friends game which was successfully kickstarted. I Have DM'ed but I prefer being a player, and I'm just looking for a group to have semi regular sessions and maybe make some new friends Will try any system and pick up rules quickly :)
