Southbay LA player and dm - LFG / LFP

Introduction: heyo! I’m Edward (21yo+, they/them, nerd, artist) and I’m looking for an in-person D&D group. I’m generally a DM, but would love a group to be a player in or where the role of DM can rotate for one shots or different campaigns. Hoping to meet other like minded people in the area while getting to play D&D at the same time.

Game: D&D 5e (2014) or D&D 5.5e (2024)

Group preferred: Face-to-face or hybrid / either

Experience: Around 2 years as a dm and 1.5 as a player - intermediate 

Location/Timezone: In the southbay of Los Angeles County, PST

Availability: Fairly open schedule aside from Wednesday and Sunday - would prefer afternoon/nights

Preferred role: Player, but can DM

Game style: ex-theatre kid roleplayer lol. I love making complex pcs and npcs and bantering with other people in character.

Other: queer friendly, preferably all 18+ group, no use of ai in art or writings
