Salutations to everyone.

Or hi, that also works, I guess.

Casa's going to be the name of my first character, so I guess that's what you can call me, and I'm very happy I stumbled onto this website completely by accident. Technically I've been around for most of the day, but I've been eyeball deep in your lore and only recently resurfaced to actually make a login and say hi.

Um, about me. Well, I'm twenty, female, and in college in Michigan, USA. I've been role playing for several years now, though I had to take a hiatus for about a year, so it's been a while. I've been on many roleplay sites, from wolves to zombies, but my favorite is fantasy with a strong, original lore. I pride myself in developing complex and original characters...but I'm just going to apologies now for my spelling and grammar. I'm religious with spell check and double check for the basics but any grammar nazi's out there are not going to like me.

At the moment I've got about twenty tabs open as I read about making a character and this world you guys have. I guess that greatest thing would be someone to answer a few (billion) questions I have. Because while this wiki of yours has plenty of information, I still have plenty I would love to ask before I actually flesh out my character completely.


Anyways...yeah...hi.

Welcome to Mizahar, ma'am. My name is Mikael (but you can call me Masaiken, or any derivatives of it). I know exactly what you mean-- I was completely enthralled by the lores and wiki when I first arrived. I've read most of 'em, but I'm still hunting for more. ;) I think you'll like your stay here-- we're all about originality and making sure we don't do the same old cliches over and over again (see our Creative Manifesto, listed below).

Some of these you may have already seen, but that's alright:

Well, first thing you should check out is:
--- The Starting Guide
--- Rules (highlights include: 1 character per account, 5 accounts allowed, and your characters cannot interact with each other in any way or form, or benefit from each other.)
--- Terms of Use
--- Creative Manifesto (This is super important! We're all about originality and not doing the same old cliches over and over and over and... well you get the idea.)

Followed by these links:
--- Starting Package (very important, it gives you your initial set of skill points and gear)
--- Races (There are 20 totally original races here, so simply playing to a racial norm means your character will be unique!)
--- Skill List (keep in mind that most of these are not fully developed, and some skills are not listed)
--- Magic List (magic is cool, but it does have its consequences-- don't ignore them)

You should post your character in a thread here. It's okay to post it even if it's a Work-In-Progress (WIP):
--- Character Sheet Forum

Here's some information on where you can start. It's important to research the lores on the cities before starting there, too:
--- Where to Start Out
--- City List (there's a very useful summary at the bottom of the page. Colombina is awesome!)

Lastly, some other important links. Feel free to ask for help if you don't understand, but with practice, you'll pick them up like a second nature.
--- Timestamping (this is a mandatory thing to learn)
--- Calendar
--- Experience Points (you get these after a Storyteller grades your thread. Think of each thread as a mini adventure in your character's life in the world of Mizahar)

Have a great day! I look forward to bumbling into your character somewhere out there in Mizahar. My character sheet is listed on the left, under my Avatar. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me or even stop by the CHAT ROOM. Most of the time, people will be happy to help you/answer questions. You'll probably have to scream for attention, but that's normal to have to do. ;)

Nice to meet you, and thanks for all the links. I did see most of them, but there were a few I missed.

Welcome to Mizahar! If you have questions, the chat room is easily the best place to go. They're all amazingly friendly, if a bit loony.
