Hey I am new to this game and I need some help since my account is not accepted yet and this game is a new concept to me. I was always stuck with games like Runescape and Tibia but was sick of them because they were populated by millions of idiots spamming and talking about their personal lives all the time. I am interested in playing as a Lizardman since I do have the personality of a reptile and I need some pointers and help about that race. My alltime favourite name is "Agahnim" but how can I put that name into use for a Lizardman and what should its height and weight be? And why only just male and female choices? I alway personafied myself and my characters as being genderless. I like Roleplaying as an evil warlock also. I would accept any help with these problems. Thanks.

I have sent in 3 different names, trying out all possibilities.
I am slightly worried that my names won't be accepted, or my personalities.
I don't know why, I don't know everything about lizardmen.
I made a personality that seems likely for my character, do lizardmen all act the same?
If so, mine is a rare exception, I hope.

Ok you only need to request 1 account. After a while you can request more characters to add to your account.

www.moonsilver.de is an official site with history and such about Illarion.

I made three because my name wasn't "acceptable".
Darkiced would not work for a lizardman name.
I made the other two as reassurance.
I already read what my race had to be like as well.
But I can't see why Lizardmen can't be loners.
Any race can be.

How long will it take until I can start playing the game? I heard that it took a month or so. If so, that sucks.

The time between applying and playing can be compared to the length of a piece of string. It could take a few days, weeks or months.

I have looked around at the boards, and not to anger anyone, but I'm just to lazy to look through that many pages for someone who may have asked my question. It pertains to the email you get when you apply. No, I'm not asking how long, as I have recieved it. (2-3 days for any who care and/or are taking a poll). I'm asking about the question is sends. Is it just random, or is it infact the character you are going to be. See, I requested a human (I think) even though my character is technically half human, half elf. My problem is, I have been given:

Write an end for this story from the view of the Lizard, as if you would play this charater.

I'm hoping this is just to challenge one's role playing skills. If not, 1) do I get to whine and complain? and 2)How can I change it!

Thanks.

The character in this story is NOT the character you will play when you get accepted. This story has the one and only purpose to inform us about your way of roleplaying.

But if you consider sticking to Illarion, you should read the boards. And, some smart people invented a "Search" button.

Jez, you don't have to be so rude. I just joined and didn't notice the search button. My bad. Thank you for answering my question, even if you seem to have a dead ferret lodged up your bum. Cheers. :wink:
