Greetings from a Soon-to-be New Player! was created by Wil Ravenly (Wil Ravenly)
Hello everyone! I'm Bethany, and after sending out my “hellos” to the New Player Marshall email address, I wanted to make sure I properly introduced myself to all of you as well!
My fiance and I are looking to attend Knight Realms for the first time this October. While we both come from a long-time, heavy roleplaying background here in PA, I've only been LARPing since 2012 (which was probably one of the best decisions I've ever made). I'm a huge fan of immersion, fluff, little details, fantasy politics, lifestyle sims, and living my character, so from everything I've seen and read of Knight Realms, I think it may be just the fit.
Once we'd decided to give the game a go last week, I began to scour the website and digest as much information as I could...and oh my gosh, it's been incredibly inspiring. From the rulebook, to seeing what James has created with Camp Sacajawea, to what's showcased in the photo galleries, to the feedback from your recent events... I want to high-five all of you. So many high-fives.
Since then, I've gone crazy with excited character brainstorming. Everything clicked into place for me this morning, so now I've a pile of notes and an outline for my PC that I'd absolutely love to run by someone. I don't quite feel comfortable proceeding with costuming and prop prep until I know that the character is okay to go, and that everything fits okey-dokie with the lore of Arawyn.
Thank you all so much, and I look forward to meeting you all in person very soon!

I hate to piggy-back, but since we come as a pair I thought that, for the sake of not cluttering up the boards, I would introduce myself here.
I'm Cam. I'm said fiance. I've been LARPing for a good seven years now and have come to thoroughly enjoy the hobby. For a few reasons we have decided to reach out to find a game that better suits both of our interests. I've heard of K.R. in the past from folks that have either gone or knew of people that have gone and, funny enough, stumbled upon a treasure cache remote site at one of the Hickory Run camps. (Sadly, the phys-reps have since gotten lost in the bustle of like... four moves, so I'm sorry to say I can't return them!)
We've done a little investigating and I mentioned K.R. to my fiance and had a look into it and we're both very interested in attending to see if it is a good fit for us. I'm a huge fan of politics and land management as well as a great addition to any shield-wall or skirmish, so I'm excited to see what opportunities can be opened up for a character in a new world. We've both an extensive RP background and take our characters seriously. I, myself, am actually a college graduate with a degree in theatre performance and directing.
We will be in further contact as the days go by as we both have our own questions and as there is a lot of information to delve through on the site, as well as years and years worth of IG lore and so on.
Thank you for the quick responses and the warm welcomes. I look forward to further communication!
