So of course, I'm new, hello. My name's Leigh and I'm glad to meet you! Now, past the meet and to the meat.
I'm very interested in your little horrifying warfare between the ladies with the kitty ears and the gruesome tentacly aliens but before I pitch a tent, I need to know the lay of the land a bit more. The trouble is there's not much of a map. The front page tells me to make a character and join in! Join in to what, precisely? Well, a little horrifying warfare with the gruesome tentacly aliens and ladies with the kitty ears. I thought to myself at this point, Now we're getting somewhere!
Saracasm aside, I did find my way to a wiki page discussing the progression of the Second Mishhuvurthyar (that word is cruel, btw) War up to now and I'm slowly reading through the list of roleplay threads therein. A daunting amount of reading to be done there, but I think most of it will get me roughly up to speed on current events. If I'm actually done reading it before the war is finished.
Which takes me to my questions: what exactly is recommended be read before getting started? What will make me or any other newcomer feel comfortable participating and understanding what is going on in each plot? Are there any summaries available to reduce the amount of reading ahead of myself?
I am genuinely interested, but the new member experience leaves much to be desired. General information is obfuscated and everything else is in painstaking detail. It's an information overload. I'm asking so that hopefully those obstacles can be overcome and I will be able to participate.
Again, hello!
