DID WE MENTION SOCKS?? IM NOT SURE GUYS, BETTER NOT FORGET TO MENTION SOCKS.
Really.
If you think you've brought enough socks you are wrong bring more.
PJ's, Sleeping Bag, Pillow (people always forget their pillow).
Shower stuff. "An intersteller hitchhiker never goes anywhere without their towel."
Good shoes.
I cannot stress that one enough. You need good shoes. Be comfortable. Be dry.
Black sneakers are more than appropriate for NPC duty.
Black boots are a plus.
Also, snack food.
There's normally plenty of food to find ingame, but regardless, if it's 3am and you want a granola bar, you've got one in your bag. I can't tell you how many times I've praised the lords nutrigrain and quaker chewy in those circumstances.
Sunblock.
Bug spray.
And you're golden

Plain black pants and plain black shirt. Also you might want to pack thermals just in case. Also I usually recommend bringing a few snack bars and water. Even though you can get water here... a fresh bottle at night, in the morning, or just when you are dying is nice

If you want to talk about making a starting costume for when you're ready to play your character, many of us (myself included) sew and make costumes on commission. Let us know.

Hello, I'm Justin, another New Player Marshall here at KR.
All of the above suggestions are great, I just wanted to mention that boots are preferable to sneakers, I know they're not cheap, but an old pair of snow boots will be a million times better than a pair of sneakers. I can't count the amount of times I've walked through a puddle in my old snow boots and was blessed to have my feet come out dry.
Sneakers work, but if you're going that route, I would strongly advise against Converse, or anything that is also as permeable. Try for something that's waterproof, or you will end up needing all of those socks.
If there's anything else you decide you need, feel free to shoot me a PM, or post here, and we'll get back to you.
Welcome, and I look forward to seeing you in game!

Socks are important - but please, stay FAR AWAY from polyester and cheapo socks. Especially once it turns cold, wool, silk or wool/silk blends are best. Chillblains and frostbite suck.
Wool and silk keep you warm even when wet. Cotton freezes to you.

Hi,
My name is Sean and I am another new player marshall. Let me add my two cents
SOCKS!
As well as solid shoes. What Diane said as well good socks. But like everyone else message me if you have any more questions.
