Welcome to ME
Welcome to the Medieval Europe. In this Role Play Game you will make your way through a world of chances, abuses, corruption, justice; and you will have to quickly find the path that suits you best. Still didn't find one? Build your own. Because in ME everything is possible, everything.
But let's take a step back and see what happens before you enter our world:
This is the first choice you will have to face in your whole new life. First your given name and family name: remember, you're a medieval villager, not a present hipster, so please choose a name that suits the situation, avoiding famous historical people's name!
Secondly your culture and sex. Those may not be your real features (If I'm an italian male I may choose a Scottish girl in the game) and it won't influence our gameplay, it is purely preferential.
Finally you will have to choose your kingdom of birth. Make this choice carefully as not every kingdom takes care of its new people the same way, but keep in mind you may change it later too. To see what the kingdom has to say click on the link "Kingdom Information".
Afterwards you'll jump deeper in the game play and have to make your first important decision: Skill points.
Attribute Points
You will have 40 Skill Points to divide into:
Choose carefully as you will be able to change them only once, after your birth and within 30 days. For further redistributions a fee of 200 Doubloons will have to be paid!
Reduce chapter level to 2, fix the others to 2 and 3. --Sunchaser (talk) 21:05, 29 March 2013 (MSK)
First Steps of your new Character!
Messages
Now that you're done setting up your Character infos, you might want to get started. Firstly you will face a ME admins message that redirect you to useful pages on this Wiki, secondly an automatic message set by the Regent of your kingdom will be sent you, to see this message and to access the messages system click on this
Working in the Barracks
Afterwards you might want to start your new life, that's why you will have to work to earn some silver coins, that are the currency in the game. A job for the newborns is already here for you, at the Barracks & Prisons:
To work, click on the link "Clean the prisons"
Bonuses
The option x2 and x3 is a Bonus buyable with Doubloons (Gold coins), the Bonus currency of the game, click on those links to buy Doubloons (left) or to use them (Right). This option means that you will work three times automatically.
Conditions
Each time you work at the Barracks you will earn 5 Silver coins and 1 Bread to help you survive. In fact each day (at midnight) your Glut will bounce 16% back, to establish it back to 100% you'll need to eat some Food. As you can see your Glut is not the only condition you will have to look after, your energy as well as your Glut will decrease at each action (except Resting) and your life will either after a fight, either if you're Glut reaches 0 and midnight comes.
The Market
To recover Glut you can eat your Bread or purchase some Food on The Market: here people sell and buy every kind of goods. Don't be scared to take a look inside and See What's Selling. An example of a way to earn some money is to sell Doubloons on the local market.
Events
As soon as you'll be finished working an event will appear. Here in the events you wil see what happens in your life. You will receive an event in many cases, firstly when you sell or buy something at the market, when you finish working or when you vote on toplist. Less common actions will also be notified, but we'll see this later
Working for other players
After a while you might want to look for some contacts to start having friends and/or commercial partners, that's why you should start thinking about buying a Field and/or a Shop later. Those are structures that make goods from raw materials, like food, armors, potions, tools, etc. Here you can either but one and work in it, or work for someone else's structure. To be able to do that you will have to accept a Job from the Castle, in the Bulletin Board, and you will be granted access to the structure where you're supposed to work. Don't forget that canceling an action will destroy every good involved in the process!
