Hi Folks-

My wife and I are newbies and are trying to plan a weekend to join the fun. At the moment, we are on our little island of Bermuda, in the middle of the Atlantic, reading the rulebook and dreaming up our PCs.

We want to make the most of our trip - So I wanted to ask about the weekends in August- December, would any of them be any better for newbies? And also see about connecting with a New Player Marshal.

Many thanks-

Henry

Hey! Name's Conor and I'm a New Player Marshal.

Need any help send me a message, or post here.

As for the weekends, for the most part, unless a ST wants to step in, no one knows what is a better month for story wise.

If you like warmer months I'd suggest trying for August or September. Colder months, November or December.

Costuming wise, since you don't have to worry about layers, I find summer easier to start in budget wise. However, some players will disagree with me and say that winter is better to start in.

It's all a matter of personal preference. Can't wait to see you at Knight Realms!!!

Hi, Henry! I'm Jeff, also a New Player Marshal.

I'd say September would be the best month, since it wouldn't be too hot or cold and the Camp would be beautiful with the leaves changing color.

Hi Henry! I'm Onca, another New Player Marshal.

First of all, I'll add to the warm welcomes. If you need anything, there are several of us.
Next, it seems that when you are back in the states, I'll be in your area! I'm going to Bermuda for a week in October

As for which weekend is good for newbies, it can be hard, since we (as other players) don't know the plot in detail in advance. So I would suggest scheduling for whichever is easiest for you. October is usually an undead-heavy month, as Halloween, but that's not a hard and fast rule.

Looking forward to seeing you both!

In general, there is always something for newer players to do - the Storytellers & Staff make it a point to be as inclusive as they can for all ranges. I don't think you'll need to worry about a specific weekend being "new player friendly" per se.
