Hello!My name is Marcella and I plan on trying to attend at least a couple of games during the year. I live in Maryland so it is difficult to arrange transportation.I'm considering playing a Pixie Cleric of Elantrai, though I realized halfway through planning this might be a common thing... is it?Either way, I have met a group of players from RoA and think they're all wonderful people so I can't wait to meet the rest of you 🙂For now, I'll be ghosting around the boards and doing my best to learn how things work.Till then!-Marcella (Mars for short)

Awesome! New Players are the best part of a new event. So many new people to meet and interact with.
Add another to the group. Seems my solo act is starting to round itself out nicely all of a sudden.I submitted my back story and was curious if someone could let me know if it was received. Apparently my out going e-mails are having trouble
Thanks for letting me know 🙂We're all slowly but surely figuring out everything.This should be the last question from me (they might ask stuff through me)Do you need us to submit characters ahead of time somewhere or is it alright if we just have it all written down when we get there?
Please submit backgrounds via MS Word to backgrounds@realmsofadventure.netHand written ones are problematic.Thanks!
She mentioned already sending her background in, I believe her question is regarding character stats/skills/whatever else goes on character sheets.To answer that, there's this from the character creation section.
Hopefully we will have an online character submission working soon. In the meantime you can e-mail your character to us at updates@realmsofadventure.net,
So, looks like you can send your characters there. I'd guess to include your name and your character's name, race, class, Diety followed if any, and then list the skills you'd like to start with from your class list, though Mike or Scott can correct me if that's wrong (I remember doing that when I started, but that was a million years ago and for the first event of the game, so things have change since then).

Correct =). Also, be sure to submit your background to backgrounds@realmsofadventure.net as well! Please note that you will still be required to fill out a new player sheet prior to game on when you sign your waiver, as that is where you'll fill out things such as emergency contact information. Alternatively, you can click here to download this form now and fill it out ahead of time, and even send it back to us if you have the means to do so in lieu of submitting an email as described below.Here are a few examples of what the email should look like:=======================================================Example #1: Mage with Alchemy and Merchanting

Did this change or is my memory just off?

In order to use two weapons with only Florentine I, yes, the second weapon you wield must be a small weapon as per the rules of the skill (and you must therefore purchase small weapon). However, with Florentine II, you need only have the skills required to wield both of your weapons, in this case the one-handed edged skill (for which there are no prerequisites). Florentine I has no prerequisites, likely because it's possible that someone can be well trained in the use of one-handed edged weapons (and thus the ability to dual wield them) without knowing how to properly wield a dagger.
Actually Scott, you are wrong. This is why official clarifies come only from me. You MUST have Small weapon in order to learn Florentine I. And you MUST have Florentine I to learn Florentine II. Matt is correct. You cannot just go straight to Florentine II and ignore small weapon as a pre req for Florentine I.While Florentine I lists pre req as none it is fairly self evident that without a weapon, you couldn't use the skill and since one of the weapons used in the skill must be a small weapon, you obviously need that.And Patty sorry I misunderstood her question. Thanks for clearing that up.*Edit - I'm nopt sure why this didn't carry through to the new site, but I looked at my old files and I had actually had "Small Weapon AND 1H Edged OR 1H Blunt" listed as pre reqs for Florentine I since some folks didn't realize it.
@Scott: Bonus points for Slayers reference.

That doesn't sound right. Shouldn't it just be Small Weapon, since you can use two daggers? Or is it intended to only be a bonus for someone using a long weapon?

Nah you are right. Two daggers is ok. I was reading from my phone and got the wrong line.
