Hey! I'm Josh, gay, 36, and I recently moved to NYC. I've played D&D a little bit before, but I'm still very much a newer player. I know the basics, but will have questions regarding some nuanced rules. I'm looking for a group that's cool with that and doesn't take things too seriously.
I'm really drawn to the storytelling side of D&D. I love getting invested in characters, mysteries, weird worlds, plot twists, darker stories, and seeing where everything goes. I'm a huge horror and sci-fi fan, and generally love anything that's a little strange, creepy, funny, or completely unhinged. I'm also into fantasy, video games, board games, movies and TV!
I'm pretty easygoing when it comes to the actual campaign. I'm happy to learn, try different character types, and work with the DM and the rest of the group rather than showing up with some elaborate character that absolutely has to fit into the campaign. I'm also not particularly interested in min/maxing or trying to "win". I mostly want to make a character and see what happens to them.
Outside of D&D, I work in fashion/tech and spend a lot of my free time gaming, watching horror movies, going to the movies, checking out bars/restaurants, playing board games, or finding some new show to get obsessed with.
I'm open to online or in-person games. For in-person I'm in Manhattan, but I don't mind traveling within NYC. I'd especially love to find a recurring group where everyone gets along and eventually becomes the kind of group that might grab drinks, play other games, see a movie, etc. outside of D&D too.
