NEWBIE

Newbie is a term used to describe people who are new to MUDding, and sometimes just one particular MUD. As a newbie you start out with a few choice pieces of equipment and enough food to last until you gather enough money to buy more. The INFO and POLICY commands will tell you the rules and basics of Dark Pawns, and the NEWS file will keep you updated on various added features. Also, check out help FAQ, which has the answers to some of frequently asked newbie questions.

You will start out in the Temple of your home town. The first thing you should do is find your GUILD and PRACTICE your starting skills. After that, investigate the training areas available in your city. The Guard Barracks in Kir Drax’in is one of the best places to start. Once there you will be able to kill things for EXPERIENCE so you can gain levels and become more powerful.

Renting here is free, but only in certain areas, the main one being the Temple and Altar in the city of Kir Drax’in. The HELP MAP file will show you a map of Kir Drax’in, and the locations of all the stores, guilds and sub-areas within.

Once you get on your way, you’ll probably want to check out information on MULTIplaying, which the mud is designed for.
