=The Introductory Tour=
=The Introductory Tour=
Upon creation of your character, you will find yourself prompted with the option to take an introductory tour. We highly recommend taking this tour, as it not only teaches you some basic things you need to know, but gives you things you may have trouble finding otherwise.
You will be taken on '''the introductory tour''' after you have made the first choices like a name and a race for your character. An old crone will come and guide you to the Tree of Life, also known as [[Yggdrasil]]. From this tree of life you will be born anew. The rebirth both painful and liberating.


Upon completion of the tour, you have been taught how to shop for needed items, interact with a weapon, move around, gain information on your surroundings, read HELP files, communicate in a variety of ways, and sleep to heal.
[[Pasiphae]] will be waiting to great you as you slowly regain consciousness in a dimly lit cave. [[Pasiphae]] is your guide throughout the introduction, she will guide you as you learn and gain your first levels of experience. Eventually showing you to where to find the dragon orb.


In addition to your new-found knowledge, you will come away with four extra levels(placing you at level 5), a weapon, some food, some gold, a backpack to store items in, proficiency in the shortsword, a few lessons in vision, and a journal.
In the introductory tour you will learn about:
*Checking your status and inventory.
*Looking at your surroundings.
*Clothing (and be given a set of robes).
*Finding your way and moving around.
*Checking who is connected to Achaea.
*Getting and giving items.
*Where to find maps.
*Basic geographi of Sapience.
*How to learn and learn 15 lessons in survival.
*How to use the SURVEY skill.
*How to check which skills you have learned so far.
*Basic combat skills.
*Buying items from a store. (You will buy a pack and a health vial.)
*Then you may either choose to test your combat skills or see if you can find your ways through the maze. Either challange will allow you to gain the Dragon Orb.
*You will be assisted to select a [[Class]]
*Offered the chance to choose a [[Category:City-states city]] for your home. (If you are quite new to Achaea a [[Category:City-states city]] can offer you a group of people to help you out and we suggest that you join one of your choice.)
*Learn what [[Category:Houses houses]] are.


At the end of the tour, you may also choose to be born directly into a specific city.
As you can see quite a lot of things to learn in 10-30 minutes, depending on your speed completing the tasks.
 
So you see, it really is beneficial to take the introductory tour.


=After the Tour=
=After the Tour=
After the tour, there are a number of things you can do. What follows are two things that may assist you in building your character.
'''After the tour''', you will find you at the ring of [[Portals]]. From the portals you can jump to many places of interest across the realms. From here you can do many things, HELP WHATNOW has a very complete selection of very useful tips and pointers. There is no reason to repeat it all here.
 
The first thing you will want to do is choose a class. Your class comes with a skillset of three skills. A skill has a large number of abilities you can use to fight, function, kill monsters, and do any number of things.
 
Next, you may choose to join a House. A House is a group of like-minded individuals who generally help each other to become stronger via friendship and structure.


In order to join a class, a House, or both, you will need to visit Certimene.

=Registration=
=Registration=


It is important to register your character shortly after creation in order to avoid being purged from the system too quickly. While registered characters can still purge, they do not do it nearly as quickly.

Please provide the correct information while registering your character. We will not sell or give this information away, but it is necessary to have it on file incase you ever need support for your character. When interacting with support, whether it is to request a lost password or for some other reason, you will be asked to provide your registration information so we can compare it with that on file to be sure you are not someone pretending to be you.
