Just felt the urge to share that my very first attempt of requesting a character was approved... I'm quite happy and proud of myself. Hello Armageddon, I'm coming from Achaea (needed hardcore roleplay, Achaea doesnt eforce it enough) and I cant wait to get started... I would now, but its 1:40 AM  :P

About 2 1/2 years ago I was in your exact shoes.  Coming from Achaea wanting more RP.  I was almost overwhelmed by Armageddon.

My advice: Start at either Tuluk or Allanak, not Red Storm or anywhere else.  If your first PC isn't a human, try it on your second one.

Most of all, don't get discouraged, make some friends ICly and have a ball learning the ropes.  There's a part of me that envies you because there's so many cool things to discover about this game.

If you want role-play you came to the right spot, seriously. :)

Welcome on board!  Feel free to contact any one of the hlpers, or myself I guess - if you feel you need any help in acclimatizing yourself to the world and code.  It's a lot to handle at first.

Hmmm... I made up my background around a start in Luir's, can I still chose Allanak instead? About to log on... I'm all excited. And scared. I bet some guard dog will eat me 5 minutes after login  :D

You could probably send an email to mud@ginka.armageddon.org to get a change to your background put in.  Otherwise, you could simply go off the premise that your character was born in Luir's but has been down in Allanak for a while.

Enter game and your stats are rolled.  Point to some city.

I assume you mean the Hall of Kings, where you pick your starting city?  You haven't actually started yet, and if you check you'll see that all your attributes are set to  very poor.  Apparently very poor strength means that you can't carry shit.  :P  When you get to your starting city you're stats will be set, and will be much higher.  Unfortunately, it will be too late to pick up your coins then.  You could try wishing up about your problem.

If you were not in the hall of kings, but actually in an IC location, you must have gotten a really crappy strength roll.  You can try "reroll self" but beware!  It can make things worse, it can't be undone, and you can only do it once.

Is there a command to change the text colour? I'm using zmud, and the green text on dark background hurts my eyes

Good luck with your first try 8)

Just enjoy your character and do not fear from death. Keep dying is an everday issue around here...  :)
