Guides:Possibilities as a Wurmian

[[Main Page]] :: [[Useful N00b Links]] :: [[Possibilities as a Wurmian]]

== 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,
except the one you build in your head), with many things out there that can cost you your life; and as a new character your skills are not very well suited to life in the wilderness on your own. It is possible, but definitively a lot harder than if you had the right equipment and/or friends.

== Food ==
For the first 24 hours of your life, you can get food in the tavern of
[[Newtown]] for free, but you really should make sure to establish some food supply for the time after. One possibily is [[fishing]], combined with some [[foraging]] and [[pottery]]. In combination with a [[campfire]] you will at least be able to make yourself a (worse tasting) [[stew]] or [[casserole]]. More info at: [[How do i get Food/Cook guide]].

== 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]] 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]] 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 other players/traders) to earn money and buy 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]], [[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 [[animals]], like [[Large Rat]] and [[Wild Cat]]) and help fight the evil follower of [[Libila]] (and this are just some possibilities).

== Groups ==
Search out other players who travel the World of Wurm and ask to join them as it increases your survival rate drastically if you move in groups, especially if one or more experienced players are with you.

== Enemies ==
But you don't have to... you can always be evil, rob, plunder and burn down everything which get's into your way, but this is another topic... (any Blacklighter care to add to this?). 
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 battle. If you don't go to a wild server, excpect that some outlaws could try to steal from you or even rob/kill you. On your kingdoms home server (the place you start for example) attacking other non-outlaw players or stealing is way to become an outlaw. And being outlaw involves high risks of getting hunted by kingdom guards and other players legaly.

Note: It is best to join HOTS if you know people there, they can be preety agressive and tend to not let new players join.

== Final Note ==
Be friendly and ask politely, in most cases someone will help you to have a good start in many different ways. 
And after all, you're free to do anything you would like to :)

== The history of the town Hammerfell ==

One of the oldest towns in Wurm, Hammerfell had its roots as an unofficial satellite of Whosville. After the fall of WV however, the people of Hammerfell struck out as their own entity. Settling in a narrow valley, we founded a small village and named it Pit because of the location and its mining effort. But the town of Pit was short lived. After a betrayal from within Pit met its destruction and we began searching for a new home. After exploring vast lands, Krelos led us to our home in the mountains. Here we grew in size and power and gained a reputation as some of the greatest road builders.
But it was not meant to last.

The great cataclysm struck and all that was ceased to be. We found ourselves in a new land of virgin forests and fierce trolls. It was in this place we finally took the name Hammerfell and grew into a great city. Peace was foreign to this land and raiders roamed free across the world. It was during a time of peace, declared by the gods themselves, that the raiders struck at us. They escaped with such stealth that even the servants of the gods did not see them as they emptied our storehouses of gold. Outraged at the gods indifference to this crime against their decree, we struck back at them in full force and crippled their base of operations. Or so we thought. Over the next few months reports of new attack began to come in. Eventually entire towns were destroyed and many survivors sought refuge with us, telling stories of terrifying warriors who could not be hurt.

In the end we too were assaulted by this mysterious force. They bled out of the forest near Hammerfell and walked toward the walls with steady complacency. Shouts went up and our warriors went out to meet them as the archers climbed the wall. When they reached our men we realised why they were invulnerable. They were the very same raiders we had slain many months before, now walking dead and unable to die a second time. Though there was far fewer of them, they quickly overwhelmed our force and made for the walls even as they were filled with arrows. All seemed lost and we were forced to flee the city with what we could carry. From a hilltop some kilometers away we could see the fires burning Hammerfell to the ground and sending a column of smoke into the clouds. All we had known for so long, destroyed in a single night. We also learned that our close neighbors and allies, Daargard and Asgard had met the same fate that night.

Those who had the desire to rebuild returned to the city several days later. The long process had barely begun however when a messenger from the gods came. He told us that soon all would be remade, all that was lost would be regained and we would be taken to a new world. That night we went to sleep in our ruined city but woke atop a hill in a place we did not know.

Some of us chose to reject violence utterly and founded the Abbey of Lhasa. Others wanted to learn the dark ways and gain the power that we had seen in the undead. Still others wanted to pursue a peaceful life, much as they had always known. And so for many years, Hammerfell ceased to be. But now our return is at hand and we will raise up a great kingdom, united under the banner of Hammerfell. A kingdom of strength and honor, standing against the darkness that creeps out from the black altar.

New Citizens are always welcome, but be warned, thieves will not be tolerated. We as always, welcome free speech and are a very laid back and friendly community.
