New player looking to go to the June Event

10 years 9 months ago #118718 by Will Landon (OwlWill)
Greetings all.
New to Knight Realms as a whole and I'm looking for guidance on how to build my character. I'm planning to play a Coast Havener but I am still as of yet undecided as to what profession I should be. Any advice would be appreciated.

Also, from what I've been told you all are a great bunch of people and I can't wait to go!

Welcome Will!
Kind of a tall order to pick a profession for a stranger. I'd say your best bet is to look through the profession list and see what skills seem like they would be fun to play with. Ask your character some questions. Are they sneaky? Burly? Have a nose for the shinys? Devious perhaps? Maybe cowardly?

Don't feel as though you are pidgeon-holed by your first profession choice either; you can have up to four lower lists. I'll be starting my coast havener in June as well, and he isn't going to be quite what I want of him til I open a second list.

I look forward to meeting whoever you decide on!

Will, you heard correctly! There is a great community here.

I'm Jeff, one of the many New Player Marshals you're sure to meet. Welcome to Knight Realms!

As to what kind of character you want to play, have you ever read a book or played a videogame and identified with one of the characters? Maybe you thought, "I want to be like that!"?

Hi, I'm May, and I'm not a new player marshal, but I do like helping people. Rumor has it that there are going to be slight changes to classes soon that would allow a greater selection of classes available to start with. I'm not sure if it will be in effect by June, but it's something to keep in the back of your mind while selecting classes.
Also it's not just a rumor that we're great and friendly and such. This is the most welcoming group of people who play dress up in the woods that I've ever been a part of.

Hello again,

@ Brendan - I took your advice. I looked at the professions and I've narrowed it down to Torturer, Bounty Hunter, and Buccaneer. Not sure how shady I want to go.

@ Jeff - I have thought "I want to be like that!" before. I have actually larped before and I have a few character concepts in mind right now.

@ Matt - Thanks for the info.

@ May - Thanks for the info and I can't wait to try this out. I already have my costume in the works.

I can't wait to meet all of you!
