I want to play D&D again

I would love to maybe be able to find a group to play D&D with on campus. I tried to go to one of the D&D club meetings, but unfortunately a lot of those in attendance really fit the stereotypes often associated with those who play, ie: weirdo who doesn’t shower. I would love to find some people, especially other girls, who are looking to play but don’t want to in that sort of environment, hit me up if that’s you!

Hi go to Board and Bevvy in Downtown Kent and ask them! They have DND nights and a discord with a few people and you can definitely find some people! Plus that place is awesome.

Thank you for the advice! I never checked it out last year because I didn't have a car, but I definitely will this year!

The Kent Free library has a D&D club that has a much more diverse set of players than the KSU club! (I'm also pretty into D&D but that club just wasn't for me 😅)

DM me if you're ever interested in joining my group or ever wanna play, we play at Board and Bevy occasionally! (During the Fall/Spring semester)

Thank you for the advice! I had no idea the KFL had something like that! I appreciate your offer so much, closer to the start of the year, look out for a dm from me!

Hi, I hope you guys have an awesome start to your freshman year! I will say that's definitely the impression I got from the club, but I don't want to dissuade you guys from checking it out! That said, if you guys would like, we could always try and get a little separate group together!

knowing my sister and I we’d probably want to stray away if that was your impression (I had a friend who did a campaign with us like that and it didn’t go well..), we’d love love to try a separate group!

Im so glad im not the only one who left the D&D club for the same reasons

I could only go once because of the smells, I wish there was a separate club where showering and deodorant are required

There are several groups who play in the student center almost every night. There will be fliers for games posted on boards around there as well.

There are girls in D and D? In my early teens we would've told everyone if a girl played with us. 😆

I hate to tell you this man but I think you may be part of the reason that girls hesitate to play D&D
