Hadriel Newbie Integration!

[dedikated]

If you've joined the game in the last few months, you've come at an exciting plot time. But it's also pretty difficult to navigate the long-sailed waters of this game, right? There's a lot of history and metaplot that your character has missed, and the older characters are so used to this brand of crazy that they might not be as helpful as they want to be.

So, in the spirit of helping people out, and after discussions on plurk, we thought it would be a good time to get some feedback and hopefully set up potential ways your character can get involved. As the CR meme is coming up soon, we don't want to make this too much about specific CR, but rather your character's integration in the city.

Older characters and players, help out by commenting to new players' posts, please! Or by adding resources I may have missed.


— newbie guide
— a history of the null
— player projects
— clinic comm | guard comm | firefighters comm | lab comm | speakeasy comm
— teachers list



Again, this isn't intended to be used like a CR meme, but a way of getting your character integrated in the city.

Skills they have: [ Is your character a fighter? A cook? A painter? Let us know what your character could bring to the table. ]
Things your character would like to achieve: [ Does your character have ambitions to hose the greatest party Hadriel has ever seen? Do they want to keep people safe or heal them? Let us know! If you have ideas of development you would like to achieve, skills you'd like your character to learn or otherwise, please also state that here! ]

And finally, in the comments, you'll find sections for general feedback and for older players to speak about their player projects and what assistance and such they'd like to have!

Character Name: Lucretia
Skills they have: Wizard, painter, writer. Speaks eight languages. Can write with both hands simultaneously. Though she's an incredibly powerful wizard and won't hesitate to use her magic to help people if the opportunity arises, she's not particularly likely to think to volunteer it in a more general sense.
Things your character would like to achieve: She wants to research and document the story of Hadriel, and do whatever she can to collate and prepare resources for newbies coming in, because she's a big fuckin nerd.

NGL, Luc and Kate's thread is a big part of why I ended up making this post! I'm hoping that I can think of something Kate can do that will help newbies get adjusted to the game and she'd definitely want to contact Luc about being part of that, if you'd like! Especially for the documentation of things.

Yes, for sure!! She'd be totally into it, and anything that gives her an excuse to get involved and meet new people would be awesome. She's already trying to look into the library a little bit and try to see if anyone managed to save anything of worth before it was destroyed, so she can start building up a more comprehinsive history/"what we know" about Hadriel.

If she's looking to document resources for newbies, she might want to get into touch with Nick Valentine! He wrote the newbie guide that's installed on all the phones and would be a good place to start.

Yes! Alphys also mentioned Nick as someone who knows a lot about Hadriel, so I've been meaning to reach out to him - thanks for the reminder!
