== Introduction ==
This topic covers some of the possibilities a new character can (and perhaps should) do on arrival in Wurm.
Many new players tend to immediately run out of [[Newtown]] straight into the
wilderness, just to realize after a while that without food, weapons/armor
this is not the best idea after all. Wurm is a huge landmass (and no map exists,
== Food ==
For the first 24 hours of your life, you can get food in the tavern of
[[Newtown]] your starting village for free, but you really should make sure to establish some food supply for the time after. One possibily possibility is [[fishing]], combined with some [[foraging]] and [[pottery]]. In combination with a [[campfire]] you will at least be able to make yourself a (worse tastinglow nutrition) [[stew]] or [[casserole]]. More info at: [[How do i get Food/Cook guide]]Guide To Cooking.
== People ==
Another important point: you are not alone in Wurm, there are other players, some as new as yourself, some experienced, some friendly and helpful, some trickery and thievish but lots are worth to get into contact with. ([[Jenn-Kellon Chat|Kingdom chat]] is a good place to make first contact).
== Equipment ==
Even if you want to be the "lone wolf", it's hard to do this without experience and/or equipment and [[Newtown]] your starting village is a good place to get both. You could, for example, learn how to create things on your own (for example: [[Pottery]], [[Carpentry]], [[Fishing]], [[:Category:Skills|Skills]]), then sell your [[:Category:Items|Items]] to [[Trader Dole]] (or for other players/traders) to earn money and buy kinds of equipment/[[:Category:Weapons|weapons]]/[[:Category:Armour|armour]], or get a job at one of the many building-sites which often hire people to cut [[:Terrain:Tree|trees]], or [[Mining|mine]], [[chisel]] (see the complete [[:Category:Skills|skills-list]]) in exchange for loan and/or equipment, learn to use [[:Category:Weapons|weapons]] (using a [[:Item:practice doll|practice doll]] or light [[Creatures|animals]], like [[Large Rat]] and [[Wild Cat]]) and help fight the evil follower followers of [[Libila]] (and this these are just some possibilities).
== Groups ==
== Enemies ==
But you don't have to... you can always be evil, rob, plunder and burn down everything which get's gets into your way, but this is another topic... <sub>(any Blacklighter care to add to this?).</sub><br>Always remember, if you go to a wild server, there are quite a few people who really like to kill you on sight, so my personal advice would be: join existing villages/communities and prepare for battleprotection. If you don't go to a wild server, excpect expect that some outlaws could try to steal from you or even rob/kill you. On your kingdoms home the Freedom or Golden Valley server (the place you start for example) attacking other non-outlaw players or stealing is way not possible in most circumstances. Note: If you are thinking of joining the HOTS<sup>(Horde of the Summoned)</sup> you should try and get to become an outlaw. And being outlaw involves high risks know some first through the forums or one of getting hunted by kingdom guards their alts; they can be pretty aggressive and other players legalytheir trust must be earned. Don't worry though, there are many who are fair even with the HOTS.
== Final Note ==
Be friendly and ask politely, in most cases someone will help you to have a good start in many different ways.<br>
And after all, you're free to do anything you would like to :)
