Just a few questions

by **Ventus** on July 14th, 2010, 8:27 pm

So, being very new, and wanting to venture with some friends, I have a few questions.
1. As an Inarta, would I have to start in Windreach to obtain an eagle and proper weaponry?
2. How far is Syliras from Wind Reach, so if I start there I could know how far it would take via eagle to reach Syliras?
3. Can my character's attitude stray slightly from the usual Inarta and not be very brave, or looking for a fight. For example, having a strong sense of self preservation?

1. Okay, never mind, I found the correct answer to that! I don't think I will have an eagle!
2. Answered above...
3. That, I will still need help with.

Though, it brings up a new question.
4. Would it be possible for in my character's history that he to near or at Syliras after he had been rejected by many eagles? Like, for example, he was headed there to pursue an artisan career?

Hello Ventus

Welcome to Mizahar and let me take a stab at your questions.

3. Can my character's attitude stray slightly from the usual Inarta and not be very brave, or looking for a fight. For example, having a strong sense of self preservation?

Yes you could if you wanted.

4. Would it be possible for in my character's history that he to near or at Syliras after he had been rejected by many eagles? Like, for example, he was headed there to pursue an artisan career?

You can start anywhere in the game. So yes.

Like John says. Your character is unique, so if you are making an Inarta that is just like the typical stereotyped Inarta, everyone will find you boring and predictable. It is suggestion and encouraged you add your own little spice to your characters, and such things can be supported or results of past events, strong beliefs, or difference in cultures or experiences. If you play an Inarta that was not always amongst those at Windreach, which if you are in Syliras, chances are you have been traveling for years on foot/horseback, met some weird and strange things to your character, and developed some philosophical views or opinions of people, places, and maybe to some extent, the Gods and Goddesses. You can have your character beginning in Syliras for any reason you so wish, eagle rejection, desire to escape the Inarta 'norm', or just a sense of adventure brings you to a city you finally find peace within (which wouldn't be unlikely to find in Syliras).

Edit:

Ash'eny, my own character prefers the 'flight' over 'fight' instinct. He has no experience in combat expertise, so instead relies on blending with a crowd or or simply avoiding confrontational situations altogether, as his chances for self defense are pretty low.
