What we’re about
Welcome to the Santa Cruz RPG Meetup! We're growing the Tabletop Roleplaying Game (TTRPG) community across Santa Cruz County. We're open to gamers of all experience ranges. Whether you're new to TTRPGs or have been playing for decades, if you're a TTRPG enthusiast in Santa Cruz County you are welcome here. Members of this group run and play Dungeons & Dragons and Pathfinder, of course, but many other TTRPGs as well — from small press indie games to a wide variety of other systems and settings — our interests vary widely.
We're looking to coordinate both online and in-person games. Hosts of in-person games set their own safety and Covid-19 protocols and requirements to participate. Be respectful of each other and spread the love of playing and running TTRPGs.
Please let us know if you have an idea for an event. We're looking to make 2024 a banner year for TTRPGs in Santa Cruz County.
Connect with the local TTRPG community via our sister Discord server: TTRPG of Santa Cruz at: https://discord.gg/B8eY4fZ42W .
