Jay

Seeking a gaming group

Hey, I’m Jay. I’m 41 and based in Oxfordshire. I’m easy-going, enjoy a laugh and spend my spare time streaming, gaming, 3D printing and hanging out with my wife and daughter. I absolutely love playing D&D, but unfortunately my previous group has recently stopped playing. One of our players lost interest, so I stepped in and took over as DM. It went surprisingly well, but the rest of the group eventually moved on to other things too, leaving me without anyone to play with. I would really like to find a friendly local group that plays in person. I particularly enjoy the physical side of the game, including miniatures, maps and terrain. I have been using my 3D printer for the last couple of years to create models, scenery and terrain pieces, so I am always happy to contribute those to the table. I’m mainly interested in fantasy D&D 5e campaigns set around the Sword Coast, such as Storm King’s Thunder, Curse of Strahd and similar official adventures. I’m open to joining an existing group or helping to start a new one. I have experience as both a player and a newer DM, although I am mostly just looking for a relaxed and reliable group who enjoy the game and want to have a good time. Feel free to message me if you’re based in or around Oxfordshire and think I might be a good fit for your group.

32M looking to play with a local group in Oxfordshire. I have a few years experience playing and GMing 5e with friends. Currently running a One Piece 5e and playing in Star Wars - Edge of Empire game online, but eager to play in person. Played Pathfinder 2e and Symbaroum, so always happy to try different systems, but most familiar with 5e.

Esther

Seeking a book club

I like reading classics as much as contemporary literature, I also enjoy a good crime novel or essay once in a while. I read both in English and Spanish and would love a group open to read Spanish and Latin American authors.

Fibreglass Sam

Seeking a gaming group

A former PF1 player who's a little out of touch. Has a long and storied history of theory crafting to a theme, to make flavoursome but effective characters. Level 2 GM at best, but can design an interesting oneshot every now and again when the GM is away.
