One question I do have before I head up in two weeks, is how accessible is coffee? I definitely need to get my hands on some over the course of the weekend, so it is a matter of is it availible on site, or should I bring my own?
Thank you guys, and I can't wait to participate in Knight Realms!

There's always coffee at the inn, but if you have your own that's even better.
David (Typhon Scyldinga IG) brews a MEAN espresso.
Also, you could have texted me dude.

I remember you from your earlier thread. It's good to hear that you're finally coming to game. Also, it's perfectly fine if you don't want to give any information about your character, at least until he arrives in Travance.
Coffee is available in the kitchen and is a popular, highly sought-after commodity at game. In addition to it being available at the Camp itself, there is a Quick Chek frequented by larpers of all stripes and sizes, roughly 4-5 minutes from Camp. They sell all kinds of varieties of hot coffee there, as well as a couple kinds of iced.
Do feel free to bring your own coffee, though. Here's a relevant part of my friend Kat's post elsewhere on the forum about brewing up a cup on-camp and in-game:
Ketryn Shiverthorn wrote: The coffee at the inn is...well, it's very nice that they make it and I really appreciate it but if you want really ultra high quality brew you'll need to make it yourself. I wouldn't recommend going to the trouble of building a fire in one of the lands' fire pits because it can take a good long time depending on the weather and the potential for being interrupted by an NPC encounter is high. Here's what I've found to work well: Sometimes I carry a little peizoelectric camp stove with an itty bitty fuel tank and make coffee in character with my chemex and a kettle. The other option I sometimes go with is cold brewing in advance and packing it with me if I need to wake up quickly in the morning.
However, if you're okay with asking permission from a land's nobility to use their fire pit and are okay with the work you'll need to put into making the fire and ensuring it's extinguished when you're done, then by all means, do so.
If you have any more questions - even if you think they're silly - post them here.

In Travance, the only certainties are death and puns. And death is a bit iffy.

I love this place already. I love puns with the passion of a thousand fiery gods. I've made a grown man, above my own age, groan and leave the room from puns. Part of me is more excited to meet you people OOG than IG! Hahaha.
