New Player Question
- Which level range did you find hardest for survival? Did this change based on character class?
- What is a flop? When do you flop? What do you check before you flop? Have you ever died while flopped? Who can flop?
- Have you ever noticed when moving to a new area that you’re suddenly more squishy? What do you do about it?

- Rode forth with PLOI and MYTHGARD to fight trees and spiders

- Met an awesome wizard and laughed at the portrayal of Inkanûsh in a play.
- Discovered where all the water went after the din of stones event and found the song we’ve been chasing nearly ready to set sail.
