Character Relationships and High Elves

Hiya,

Fellow player here. Can't wait to play with you guys.

Hi Dean, my name is Conor and I'm what we here at Knight Realms call a New Player Marshal. It's our job as New Player Marshals to introduce you to the game and help you with what you need to start playing. With that being said.....

There is no problem with having your characters related. There are siblings, and even friends that are part of the same family. Most Celt families in the game are a bunch of friends that came together and wanted a reason, for one or the other, to be related and that was cool.

In the end Knight Realms is usually a pretty open community to ideas on backstory. Unless you are saying something along the lines of "I'm related to the King of X place and number Y to the throne, most things are okay. If there is any question on what's okay, feel free to post here like you did and we'll try answering it, or send our Atmosphere Officer an email at and she should be able to help you out.

Hey Dean!

I'm Jen, one of the RolePlay Marshals!

I would suggest messaging Silverbow Patriarch (Norm B.), as he plays a high elf in the game and is also a Role Play Marshal.
His perspective might be super handy.

You are also welcome to post in the character creation forums asking for input and we can hash out character RP over there

P.S.
WELCOME TO THE GAME!!!

She also forgot to mention he's awesome in and out of game, which really helps.

Now that RP marshals have chimed in, I don't mind adding that I started the game married to my wife's character, and then friends of mine came in as my brother, cousin and brother-in-law. Relationships are fun ways to start with some connection!

Did someone mention coming in as related characters? Cause yeah, we did that. Playing relatives is a whole lot of fun, my suggestion is that you make sure you also spend time finding your own niche to an extent, if a family is always together there's less time for them to develop individually. It really works well to all have your times when you're together because family, and times where you're apart because of varying specialisms and duties and such.

Just a thought from a guy who does heavy family roleplay, though, take it or leave it as you like

I have a large Romani family (there's 5 of us total) and while we have some objectives that we wish to accomplish as a group and then we all have our own individual motivations and perspectives as well. Roleplaying families is a ton of fun and it's nice to know that you always have someone who is going to have your back. I hope to see you and your sister at an event soon. Be sure to try to find me when you show up, I'm the Pathfinder of the Adventurer's Guild which is for those new to Travance. I can help you find gold, glory, and a healthy dose of peril.
