Hello!

[ Enter: Sersi. Despite the whirlwind of events that she left home during, she's smiling brightly at the feed, particularly pleased with how clever she believes her user name is. She's no stranger to technology, and there's even some relief that these function much like cellphones did back home- she may or may not be a little addicted to them.

She pushes her hair from her face and waves with a waggle of her fingers. ]

Is it customary to introduce one's self here? I wasn't sure... [ She pauses and drops her hand with a shrug of her shoulder. ] I figured it couldn't hurt regardless.

I'm Sersi and I've only just recently found myself here... I've been spending most of my time over at the Archives, reading what I could.

[ And admiring the museum side while she was at it. It's mostly strange because back home, museums were more filled with memories of her life on Earth... but here, she feels as though she can enjoy it as a human would there. ]

But I think this question is best posed to the people who live here: what's your best advice for someone new?

Hello, thank you!

That's a relief- that it isn't bad all the time, I mean. [ She smiles a bit. ] I'll be sure to always be armed, though- it sounds very unpredictable from everything I've gathered so far.

You'll be fine one minute and then the next minute you'll be whisked off to someplace random. But these only happen once in awhile which is why it is so unexpected when it happens.

If I were a more anxious person, that would sound like an absolute nightmare.

[ It still doesn't sound great... but knowing to expect the unexpected helped in a strange way. ]

Are there any weapons that are better than others to keep on hand? Or will anything do?

[chenqing_player]

Anything you feel most comfortable using. I have used a sword before and everyone seems to have been given at least some abilities. But your best option is whatever you can use the best.

That's something of a relief. At least it's not an "only iron will defeat this creature" sort of rule.

I appreciate you taking the time to offer this advice.

Obviously all things have a weakness or things that won't be as effective. Doesn't hurt to have a couple options with you or at least be able to think quickly.

And its no problem. We all need to look out for each other here.
