Greetings to Mizahar!
I don't know if I even have any right to say that sentence. But anyway, hello! I'm Amaiguri right now and I'm pretty new the play-by-post RP-ing... So, if anyone has any good advice for me, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks!

1. Name - or what you'd like to be called!
When I decide on a PC name, you could call me by that. Or by my user Amaiguri.
2. What sort of RP experience do you have if any?
I did a bit of RP-ing on PonyBox and some RP-like things via email but it was limited.
3. How did you find us?
I found Mizahar on a website called "Top 50 RP Websites". It was number two and the one above it was a genre specific RP.
4. What sort of RP style is your favorite?
From the little bit I've done, I really like the fantasy genre that doesn't have to do with schools. Schools annoy me...
5. What do you like to write about - not write about?
When it comes to RP writing, I like good plotlines and stories. I don't really like romance as much. When I'm just writing on my own, I do the fantasy genre which also strays from the standard Tolkeniese drift.
6. Whats your favorite thing about Mizahar so far?
The extensive wikia has been helpful.
7. What, if anything, has frustrated you about Mizahar so far?
The extensive wikia has been extensive.
8. What would you like out of the mizahar experience?
I'd like a community I don't have to babysit (unlike my PonyBox account) but can participate actively on. So, maybe 30 minutes-1 hour a day? But we will see how much I enjoy it.
9. Is there anything you'd like to see expanded?
Not yet.
10. Anything else you want to talk about?
Any advice or suggestions would be nice. I was also wondering if you are allowed to talk to NPC characters that you make up. I mean, can you be friend with the boy who delivers your milk every day or something? Can I speak with my other family members/pets without Storyteller/other admin permission? I was also wondering if someone could redirect me to the character sheet posting thread. I couldn't find it...

Thanks in advance for any suggestions or help! I look forward to meeting you all!

Welcome to Mizahar! We've all been new faces to the site at the point. My first advice would be to look at your welcome PM, if you haven't already. There are a bunch of links that can help you get started, especially this one: Starting Guide

It will help you create your character and all that cool stuff. I think you'll also like to take a look at the NPC rules. You can roleplay minor characters without Storyteller (moderator) permission. You may also want to use city NPCs at some point. These usually need permission and/or cannot be played by anyone other than a storyteller. For example, you can usually play the part of family NPCs without asking permission beforehand. But, if that character has a special characteristic or status to it, say a high ranking priest of Syna, then it may fall under storyteller jurisdiction.

What else can I tell you?

Oh, right! If you have questions pertaining the lore, you might want to ask them there. Many helpful links are also located at the top of the forum section, starting by the "Getting Started" tab from which I have provided the first link higher in this post. The link to character sheets is also there. I'll put it in for convenience

The community here is as friendly as it gets, so enjoy yourself!

Sorry this is a little delayed of a reply. Thank you so much for the advice! It was a big help! And just by seeing that reply, I starting feeling a lot less nervous!

My name and username is now Kanri and my CS is up. I'm not trying to troll anyone so I thought I'd add this little tidbit.
