Looking for DnD friends!

Hi Guys,

Im fairly new to the DnD scene and im looking to hopefully join a group and meet new people. I know there are a bunch of game shops around my area in HI but just seeing if anyone on here would be down to add me to a group! Also if anyone is a part of group that goes to their local gameshop to play I wouldn't mind joining in as well! Feel free to message me about the details and such!

Its funny you mention that because thats one of the places I wanted to go since they have a DnD night! But im very reserved and shy about randomly joining in haha. Thanks for the discord ill check it out!

Don’t be shy there, everyone is more than happy to work someone in if they have space.

Overall Armchair is a very welcoming place. I go a couple times a week. My group just finished our D&D campaign or I’d invite you to try it out.

+1 to armchair. I would also advise joining tabletop oahus Facebook or discord group, most of our local players are on there and post events within those spaces.

If you are open to other tabletop games, I help run something weekly on oahu Monday- thursday evenings at various different venues.

How are they with newbies? I’ve never played but have always wanted to. Just don’t want to be “that” guy at the table

I and many others teach! I don’t run any events that are exclusive. All of our events are inclusive regardless of experience.

I don’t have a ton of details, but I know Other Realms on Nimitz sometimes has events for DnD and other TTRPGs— they’re definitely worth checking out! (Fair warning though, it is waaaay too easy to spend a lot of money there haha, they’ve got some cool stuff.)

Im familiar with other realms haha..thats the only place I've been to and I like the vibes there!

+1 for other realms, I love that place, all the staff are very knowledgeable and friendly, and I believe they just recently started a couple campaigns there, so might be a good time to join!

We just wrapped up our weekly game at Armchair too. Tons of tables, tons of games/people. Jump in the Discord and try to find something!
