I loved meeting you at the ball! Thanks for chatting in person and for being so welcoming here as well.

Let's definitely sync up this weekend too!!!

Hey, I know a thing or two about being hella awkward. You should've seen me when I started back in 2013--actually, no, nobody should've. Hehe!

Are there any mechanics specific threads that you recommend reading up on before my first "full" event this weekend so I can be prepared-ish?

I would recommend poking around the Baronial Library, which is in the Proper and if your character can read, you're all set to put your nose in those books! Especially this one, concerning Travance in general and its five lands:

There are many other pieces in the Library that volunteers took much time and care putting together, so if you'd like to take a look around, be our guest:

Be sure to study up on how the economy in Travance works/doesn't!

Since Yule is approaching, information on the holidays could prove important as well!

If you have any specific questions about game mechanics that you need answered, feel free to post them here or message any of the New Player Marshals who've responded either here on the Forums or on Facebook if you have them added.

Otherwise, there are a few general things to keep in mind:

1. "Be excellent to each other."
- Bill S. Preston, Esq. and Ted "Theodore" Logan

2. Have fun.

3. It's okay to be hella awkward.

4. If you don't know, ask. This doubles for moments of "Oh man, what does this skill do?" in which case you should say "Clarify" with your fist on your head; and also for when you want to do physical roleplay with someone, but you're not sure if they're comfortable with someone touching them. Once again, put your fist on your head and ask if they're okay with physical roleplay and act accordingly once they answer.

5. We're here for ya. This may be redundant, but that should help you remember. If you're ever confused about what to do, where something is, how something works, if you're uncomfortable for whatever reason, find any kind of Marshal or staff member and let us know--especially if you're hurt. We have Safety Marshals for a reason.

Dara! I know we've met a few times, it was a pleasure to meet you at the banquet and even more of a pleasure to see you playing at the ball with us. I'm thrilled to hear you're coming to this event, and even though I'm not a new player marshall, I'm relatively easy to spot and would be happy to help if you need anything.
