Hello!

My name is Dani, and I am SO KEEN for this. I've roleplayed for more years than I'll ever admit to (although it's over half of my life, and I'm now 21...)

I miss those roleplays that went on forever, with amazing plots and different people... Where you couldn't help but check to see if someone has replied to your post, and you can hardly wait for anyone else's turn before thinking of your own next move. I'm really hoping this will happen here (:

This seems like a great forum, and to be honest, I first came across to Mizahar almost a year ago... but I sadly didn't have enough spare time to dedicate to this roleplay. But seriously - bravo on everything! I've gotta be honest, I am a LITTLE intimidated purely because everything is so well thought out here... but I shall do my homework and reading and HOPEFULLY won't bother too many people with my questions!

My character is still very much is planning (there's so many options!), but yeah.. I got her name sorted, check!

Welcome, fellow n00b!

Only been here a few days myself, and I felt pretty much the same thing: that the world here was so vast and ordered and intricate I would never get my head around it. Maybe I won't, but reading the Lores and getting help from the players and Staff here have made it much easier, and now I'm itchin' to get RPing again.

Speaking of which, the people here are incredibly patient and welcoming of new people. No trolling, griefing, bullying, favoritism or immaturity, not that I've seen. If you have any questions, just ask, and they'll help.

I know you'll have fun here, mate. I certainly am. Good luck!

Razkar has been cursed by Yahal, and as such finds little acceptance from others; they will instinctively view him as being deceptive and traitorous. However, when close to one blessed by Yahal, the effect is negated. The curse is etched onto his left pectoral, and viewing the mark causes others to feel dirty and unclean.

That's an incredible relief, I've gotta be honest! It seems like a great environment but there's just SO much to do and read. I'm pretty keen to get roleplaying, but to honest, I've quite enjoyed having to do research and the like before building up my character.

If you don't mind me asking... Where did you get the pictures of your character from?

Hello, Hello, Hello. I am your beloved Count Gale.

I'm playing. XD (If anyone got the reference) But still, Hello and welcome!

I'm going to assume you read your welcome pm and at least know/have a link the character sheet forum, ect. (If you didn't then read it! :D It's extremely helpful) Like Razkar said previously, just about anyone is ready to help all you little hatch-lings, as I like to call you guys. Chat is a wonderful place to get help and make friends rather quickly. You can enter chat by clicking the button at the top of the screen. Everyone is oober friendly so there are no worries about people being complete jerks to you. Unless, of course, you're a complete jerk to them. (Which I don't suggest since there are people with Gnosis' and high skills in chat. >.>...<.< Just some friendly advice) But yeah, asking in chat is quick and efficient, however, people are still willing to help if you pm them your point of confusion. Some people love helping out all you n00bs. *cough cough* Including me *cough cough*

As for the overload on information, everyone finds it best to just chip a little away at a time. It looks like a mountain when you first start but you gotta find a way to get over it, right? Just find what works for you. XD

In conclusion, since I should probably conclude sometime soon, good luck and just have fun. Go at your own pace and do what you want your character to do. XD

Wow, thanks for all the reassuring words! Everyone is super helpful and I'm finally getting the hang of everything - I think...!

Hahah, I don't mind either Dani or Elvyne for future reference! I'm pretty keen to get roleplaying so I'll be in search of any open forums to jump into, in the Endrykas area... Perhaps see some of you there!
