| - Now you've got a client, some basic information on the MUSH, and an interest to find out more. It's time for the fun part--character generation. If you're already signed on as guest, you'll have to log off now to get to the login screen again, otherwise just reconnect to Chiaroscuro, as before. To create your character, type in "Create ", keeping in mind that it won't automatically capitalize the name for you. For instance, let's say I want to create a character with the name Nylas Trout. First I navigate to the login screen. -> create Nylas mypass138 OtherVerse Main Lobby

| - Now you've got a client, some basic information on the MUSH, and an interest to find out more. It's time for the fun part--character generation. If you're already signed on as guest, you'll have to log off now to get to the login screen again, otherwise just reconnect to Chiaroscuro, as before. To create your character, type in "Create ", keeping in mind that it won't automatically capitalize the name for you. For instance, let's say I want to create a character with the name Nylas Trout. First I navigate to the login screen. -> create Nylas mypass138 OtherVerse Main Lobby This will create a character with the name Nylas--but I wanted one with the name Nylas Trout. I couldn't do it from creation, because that would have created a character with the name Nylas and the password Trout--mypass138 would have been dropped altogether. Instead, once Nylas is created, I have to rename him. The syntax for this is "@name me=" -> @name me="Nylas Trout" Name set. The quotes around Nylas Trout are necessary, this time, or it would drop the Trout half of it and he'd still be named Nylas--not the outcome I was looking for. If you've already got a character concept, go ahead and create your character now. If you don't, you can check out our Wanted Concepts page for ideas. This gives you a list of characters people are looking for other players to play, and usually come with an automatic affiliation to someone already on the grid. Now that you're at the Main Lobby with whatever name you've chosen for yourself, continue through the Chiaroscuro gate. You do not need to answer the questions now. I know it says "answer the questions" in the room description, but if you'll notice at the bottom, it also tells you newbies to Chiaroscuro are not required to answer them. You'll answer different questions later on--answering them now would only mean hassle for you when you have to answer some of the same ones a second time. Follow the instructions through RarGen, and be sure to read the room descs. They contain a lot of useful information you'll find you need later, and explain in detail what you're supposed to do at each place. If you have any questions, ask them on the newbie channel, or page someone. The people marked as staffers and minions on the wholist, which you can see simply by typing "who", are especially good people to ask. The syntax to page one of these people is "page =". For instance: -> page Kavi=Can you help me? You paged Kavi with 'Can you help me?'
