Hello!

SianaSiana
in North of Thera
Hi guys, I'm a new player. This game seems quite interesting, and I've decided to become a Mhaldorian serpent. I'm torn between fearing for my characters life, and loving the RP involved. Any advice for someone new to Iron Realms, if not to MUDS? Or any advice for a starting serpent?

Thanks,
Siana

    Why is it always the Mhaldorians who get new social people?  I'm starting to think they know something we don't....

    Welcome! The learning curve can be intimidating but there are tons of peope wiling to help. If you are stuck or there are no Naga aound feel free to speak to me and I will be glad to help. Enjoy the game. Take things at a pace comfortable to you and while Mhaldorians can sound cranky we are actually all very friendly so never let the RP scare you.

    Apart from that just be respectful and have a great time. Oh and stay far away from @Katzchen as he eats novices or uses them as forge fuel.

    Watch out for lycopods.

    I bet that's just the ones who mistake her for a man.
    He does have manly qualities.

    Don't fall for it! All part of her plan. Novices are more tender if they do not die scared!

    Eleusis isn't only forestal classes: some of the most prominent members aren't forestal classes.  I'm a monk, the leader of the Sentinels is a Runewarden, etc. 

    Have to laugh at the notion that Ashtan is a weaker Mhaldor though. :D  Ashtan sort of stomps every other faction in the game right now, strength wise (I'm not Ashtani, but I recognize this as the truth.  They're home to a large portion of the best/most practiced combatants, and they have a population so huge it makes it very difficult to attack them).  Their RP is also completely different from Mhaldor's: Chaos and Evil are very, very different things in almost every sense.

    That said, Mhaldor's pretty RP rich and rewarding if you're in it for the long haul.  Being the villain everyone hates isn't for everyone, but if that's what you're looking for it's definitely the right place to be looking!  Sounds like you might have a bit of a problem with Evil being about as restrictive as Good is though (Evil serves Sartan exclusively, which has a pretty established ethos), but if you give it a chance you're likely to find that actually gives you a really good platform to work with.

    So far, everything I've experienced in Targossas is wonderfully -not- limiting. That is, it seems like the idea of Good that's circulating is a little atypical of the general "Lol we are the light so don't kill that puppy because bad."

    @Ourania and @Tecton Thank you very much. The idea of admins having an actual impact through the portrayal of deities seems very unique and interesting.
    Of course I know that I'm wrong in my judgement of the cities, but I have nothing to base it on besides my impressions. I hope to see some of you in game to interact with!

    We all know she went Naga just for the free lupine.

    You're not wrong in your judgement, more like you are finding out for yourself what the world is about, and what you do and do not like. That is part of the fun, when you get to build your characters life. May you hav a long and prosperous time in Achaea!

    @Tecton didn't welcome me when I started to play. I feel there's some serious admin bias towards Mhaldorian players here!

    Mhaldor is protected by more than its walls, after all.
    Mhaldor also gets their 110%, never forget.

    I would venture to say Targossas is no more limiting than the zealotry of Mhaldor.
    I'd disagree, solely by some things I had happen to me in the game, and some things I've read on the forums. 

    And you won't understand the cause of your grief...


    ...But you'll always follow the voices beneath.

    I'd be better able to respond to that if I knew what a lupine was.
    It's an awesome bow.

    That said, welcome to Achaea! Enjoy your stay. If you ever want to leave, the door is... uh... well damn. I've lost it. Guess you're stuck here!
