New and Excited

Hey, this is Katie, one of the Safety Marshals as well as a New Player Marshal. As far as the Asthma goes, make sure you have one of the safety marshals sign off on your card that you have it, so we know it's on the card. Alternatively, if you have access to the Character Card system between events to view your card, you may put it on Player Medical Notes to have it permanently added to your card. If you have an inhaler, keep it on you at all times, and accessible.

As far as the leg concern, don't stress out over it, but make sure that you don't push yourself harder than you can handle. If it gets too bad, pull yourself out of combat and speak to a Safety Marshal, or notify a Rules Marshal on the mod why you are pulling yourself out, and we can take care of you. Even if you simply feel you need an ice pack, don't worry, we are here to help. I am always around with my Medbag, conveniently camouflaged as an in game backpack.

Like others have said, boots (that cover your ankles for support), socks, and bug spray (since it is now the season) are great things, if not a necessity to have. Pieces of fruit or granola bars are great to bring too, since they can provide the needed boost of energy to get you through the event. There is a feast on Saturday, and breakfast Saturday and Sunday mornings. Usually the NPC's are fed during their shift, but do not bank on it, just in case. And of course there is the ever popular Market Faire, where many people tend to serve some great food as well, mostly for in game coin once you start your PC.

Thank you for the info I will be sure to get into contact with the Safety Marshals. It isn't bad enough for an inhaler but if I am winded say from running continuously for a long period of time I may need to catch my breath for a moment. I know my limitations well and will be certain not to push myself. I have been getting better building strength back up in my leg and lungs from when I was younger and it didn't ail me so much so perhaps Knight Realms is the boost I need to get back into shape and be better physically.

As for snackables I will be sure to stock up on a good amount of items and will bring them with me. Also idk if food/drink donations are useful but I know I can get 24 packs of bottled water for pretty cheap so maybe I can buy a couple to give out? Also on that note should I bring water(i will have ig looking items to drink from) but where would I store the water so it stays cold?

Water is a great thing. Keeping it cold is nice, but not essential. There are a few (not many) fridges, and even fewer that players may use, but staying hydrated is more important than refreshed, quite frankly.

Welcome, Nick! I'm Jeff, another New Player Marshal. There are a good amount of tall glass bottles in the fridge in the "Inn" and either a mug or a bottle is always free at the bar, so drink up! As well, there is a new water dispenser in Logistics (where you'll sign in and where you'll go for your NPC shift). That said, if you have a convenient way to carry water with you while you're meandering about or if you're sleeping far from there, it'd be a good idea to have some water for yourself and bunkmates.

As for other donations, typically there is a post in the Announcements forum asking for specific things needed that month:
www.knightrealms.com/forum/Announcements.html

Also there are some things that are always needed, as stated in the Rulebook:

Spell Packets (500 SP for 100 Tied Packets, 1,000 SP for 100 sewn packets)
Headbands (White and Blue, Yellow and Red)
Tiki-Torch Fuel
Powdered Drink Mixes
Boffer claws (Small Weapon and 1-Handed sizes, in pairs)
Inexpensive, generic latex weapons for NPC use
Glow Sticks (Bulk quantities of the larger kinds, for lighting up areas at night)

See you soon!

Unsure about the other stuff but Powder Drink Mixes I could probably get a couple boxes of those as well as the glowsticks. I look around a few local stores that I know carry those see how much I can get.

Another question (im sure your tired of mine by now). I just received some gear I ordered for Knight Realms such as a dagger for combat a holder for it and a satchel to carry my things in. If I were to use these items as i'm NPCing then when I'm a player character would that be alright? I don't want to blend the NPC and PC together but I can't really afford tons of gear to specify the difference. But I like the idea of using my own weapons/gear so I can get used to it. I will use NPC weapons provided for me but id like to have the dagger on hand if need be.

Just a side note, got it all from Dark Knight Armoury that stuff is soo amazing!
