Help for a noob

Postby Yngvie on July 12th, 2010, 2:52 pm

Ok, I have a couple of questions.

1. Do I have to wait for someone to approve my CS before starting?
2. How do I gain additional skill points?
3. What would be an ideal starting place?
Thanks beforehand! :)

Hiya!

1. No you dont have to wait for approval. We'll PM you if there's an issue. Yours has an issue, so I've already sent you a pm.

2. You start writing and roleplaying with yourself and others - then turn them in for XP with a storyteller who will award you points you can then apply to your character sheet.

3. It depends on your PC and what you want your PC to do in the game.

Regards,

Gossamer

Help for a noob

There's always someone itching to drag out a problem longer than it needs to be, in this case it's me ... sorry!

Um, there are so many places to start, so much to go through ... I don't suppose anyone that knows the place better (that's everyone :P) can help me start out? I have a character, I'll link him in my siggy quick, but I'm still not sure how to start...

Or where to for that matter :P

Sorry to be a nuisance guys! Help would be much appreciated!

It's fine, Mow.

Do some browsing in the Lore section. If you insist on starting where the general hub of activity seems to be centered, Syliras is defined in the wiki as being a melting pot. That said, it's where practically everyone seems to start, and I know I've seen it on more than one occasion where the mods really want people to start elsewhere.
