This post is to cover everything in one thread that people ask before and after joining.

1. Read the rules and item guide before you make a character.

2. Make an introduction post in the area specific to your race.

3. The different topics represent different places. You post in a topic, you are there. You can move from one place to another by first making a post saying you are leaving one place to go to another, then going into that topic and making a post saying you are there.

4. Always keep to the rules. I repost the link.

5. You have to duel people in the way mentioned in the thread to take someone's item.

6. If you lose your item, your character is either dead, or you are a minor character. Or, if you really want, you can have 4kids censor it and you can go to the shadow realm.

7. Any rules queries, put them here.
