A week in the life and tent questions

Good evening everyone,

I am trying to work out some logistics. Alexander (the very enthusiastic 11 year old you have seen NPCing recently,) and I (his mom) are trying to figure out when we will introduce our PCs. We would like to make sure that on our first weekend playing P.C.s we can do new player training and participate in the new player mods for Friday night and Saturday. However, because of real life, we are not able to make the early part of Week in the Life and would only be able to show up on Friday. So, our question is, will there be new player training and new player mods starting on Friday night of Week in the Life, or will most of the new player stuff happen earlier in the week (on Weds. or Thursday?). Knowing this, if possible, will help us decide when we decide to break out our PCs

Our next question is about the tents. We noticed in April that many of the platform tents were empty and wondered about staying in one. We have a bit of a unique situation in that I have to make sure the a fore mentioned 11 year old gets some reasonable amount of sleep. We accept that if we are PC and in a tent, we might encounter a life threatening IG event. Can someone explain how the canvas tents work? Do we need to get permission from the Baron/Baronesses of the land?

Last question. I am working on developing my PC and working out my preliminary build. If there is a Smith out there who would be willing to PM with a new player to assist with my character, I would appreciate it. I would like to make sure her build reflects her background.

Warm regards,

Crystal G.

We can put you up in one of the Pendarvin tents. He will get is sleep, meet some good people, both IG and OOG, and you will both be safe. Given that Amizar will be in the tent, you do not have to worry about rowdy.

As Charlie has said you can find tents in any of the sites, most of the ones that don't have tents have something wrong/ need repairs.

As to the New Player Training. Yes there will be the usual new player mod and such that goes on during a normal weekend. We usually do one for both of the events, as there is a break period between the two events and we do everything for the standard weekend at that time. While there will be some new player stuff during the wed-fri portion we will have most of the things go on during the usual times.

If you would like to discuss any new player character construction feel free to send myself or the new player marshals a PM and we can help you out with any of your questions.

We could also see about getting you beds in the monastery building as well. I am also a new player marshal, I also have some experience writing a card for a non combat child. Let me know if you would like any help.

Thank you for all of the offers of assistance, very much appreciated.
