New Roleplayer Wanting to Join

I found this weird place through a friend, and I created a character, but have no idea where to start. Any advice?

Hey, there! 

Did you make the character in game, or did you just join the forums?  The first thing to do is to join us in-game.  At the top of this site it says "Visit RWMUCK.ORG for more info!"; click on that link and it'll give you info on how to join us!  Or you can use this: http://www.mudportal.com/play?host=redw … me=Redwall that's what I use 99% of the time.

Then we have to look at what you want for your character.  What do they like?  What is their personality like?  Do they want to be more peaceful, like in Redwall, or more rough, like in Halyard?  Are they more Lawful good, Chaotic Neutral, True Evil?  I will say we shouldn't have them be a bad guy or someone who is set to conquer anything; that character won't last long if they're trying to conquer anything.  And if they're going around being evil and killing everyone...they won't last long, either.  It'd be better to have them be a normal character, although they can still be bad.  They can be good or bad, no matter their species.

Hey! To add on to Blisa's reply, Saturdays are generally the most active days on the muck.  After that, I suggest using 'who' and 'find' to see if there's anyone online. Redwall's a good place to find RP, the town of Ferravale is a good place for vermin characters to RP, and currently Halyard on the Western Shore is a good place for the Long Patrol hares and woodlanders/vermin to mix, as there's currently a large group of LP stationed near the town.

If you want to join the Long Patrol, the main LP page on the wiki/official site (https://www.rwmuck.org/wiki/The_Long_Patrol) is a good place to get a feel for what the Long Patrol is, and then the Joining the Patrol! page (https://www.rwmuck.org/wiki/Joining_the_Patrol!) being a good place for how to, well, join the LP. tongue

For basic commands on the muck itself, here are two pages on the wiki that give a good look at the main commands: https://www.rwmuck.org/wiki/Basic_Commands and https://www.rwmuck.org/wiki/RP_Guide

The spoof command is probably my favorite tongue

In addition, the main two OOC (out of character) commands are room page (RP) and page (p). You can send an OOC msg to the room you're in with RP, while page can send an OOC msg to a character by typing

page [character name] = [msg]

For some more commands, Ajax's useful reminders (https://www.rwmuck.org/wiki/Ajax's_Useful_Reminders) is a very good place to look.


I play Atticus, John, Lossow, Terrence, and Spruce
The Long Patrol Landing Page!
Usually on the MUCK Saturdays + Monday & Wednesday evenings if I have the time

Re: New Roleplayer Wanting to Join

I already made a character with quite an extensive background, I am just unsure on commands and where to start.

Re: New Roleplayer Wanting to Join

I think what Random said above and all the links he provided should be really helpful to you when it comes to commands.

As for where to start...I suggest you try to be on this Saturday and just join in on one of the RPs that's happening.  That's the best way to get started on here.  Just hop on in!

I run DoraRose, Blisa, Lenore, LilyMoore, Felicity, Dochas, and Julia; if you see one of those characters on, feel free to message me!
