Hello! New player!

You'll still get all the build, you just won't be able to spend it all at the start.  The remainder would be banked, and you can use it to learn new skills your first event.

In-Game Caravans are welcome, and can be a lot of fun - it's true we have a plethora of Gypsies at the moment, though.  You could do a group all from the same area, or a mixed caravan that was traveling together when they came to Travance.

Also keep in mind that when choosing sleeping quarters, a cabin full of new players surrounded by cabins of new players is not a positive survival choice.  It would be better, IMO, to have experienced player's cabins adjacent, so they can hear your death cries and come to help/revive you.

Not that Travance is a dangerous place by night.

Shh. You guys like playing undead, right?

One more question.

If I brought a ballista that fired NERF arrows, would I be able to use it, if I could get the proper skills?

Wait, the giant crossbow kind of ballista?

All weapons in our game fall into predetermined size criteria that determine what type of weapon it is. If this thing somehow fit these criteria and is determined to be safe for use in combat, then yes. If you have something that is outside the weapon criteria, or is determined to be unsafe in any way, you will not be able to use it.

Before you go and build anything that you are unsure about I suggest looking at the Weapons & Armor section on the navigation bar to your left, which is where you can find the specs for weapons.

Specific NERF brand is not used at KR. A nerf-like arrow is ok, but these types of bows and arrows are not used: www.amazon.com/Nerf-11151-Big-Bad-Bow/dp/B00095LHU8

If in doubt send a link with a picture of what you are thinking.

Just clarifying
