Game: D&D 5e Group preferred: Online Experience: Fairly New Location/Timezone: CST OR -6 GMT Availability: Saturday and Sunday Preferred role: Player Game style: I have a personal fondness for role play, but would like to try multiple styles to assist in finding my own.
Hello. My name is Curtis, 36 years old, he/him, Central Standard Time or -6 GMT if you prefer, native English speaker. I have only played a few games but I think of myself as being fairly well versed in the rules so I should require minimal if any direction in that regard. I was always an avid reader and more “indoor” type of person. I love to create my own stories and characters, to for a moment be someone else. I have always had an interest in D&D but when I was younger I never got a chance to play.
Infact this is part of the reason I am looking for a group now. As I’ve gotten older my social anxiety has gotten somewhat better, but I can look back in hindsight and see how it effected me, good and bad. Combine that with taking a job in my local school district as a janitor and seeing the younger children and teens, I realized a fair few of them were like me at that age as well.
I want to play with more people and groups, in part, to build my experience and understanding of the game and the various tools to play it so that I can bring a proposal to my employers about starting a tabletop gaming club. I want to give those kids who are more introverted and socially awkward something besides sports to join and make connections, help them out of their shells and feel more comfortable with themselves and others. And if I bring the proposal to the board, I have been warned by a few people I have spoken to I would most likely need to be the one to run it.
Which as neither a teacher nor a experienced player or DM is a bit daunting, I will admit. But I genuinely believe this could help some people.
I am available for play at any time Saturday or Sunday year round. Weekdays are a bit more difficult as I am an evening janitor and work until seven in the evening (barring events at school and holidays) but if a group was playing around 7:30 CST or later I could do so most days.
If there are any groups that might be willing to help me out, please leave a message here or send me a private message and I will contact you as soon as I am able to provide any additional information you might wish. Thank you and have a good evening!

Tapping as I fixed the post to be more in line with D&D beyond’s suggested format.
