Its a rather bad idea to start playing Illarion with a special race. It speaks for you that you made the application but its still not a good idea. Fairies, Gnomes and Goblins are special because they are more difficult the play and usually not meant to be played by new players.

Anyway, the fairies got their starting point in Tol Vanima. The home of the elves. Sadly the elves never really made it to establish a community there so this island is moste time empty. In case you want to leave it, go to the east coast of the island and look for something that looks like a shipping dock. At the end of the dock go left or right and walk around on each tile. 2 of them are teleporter tiles. Those tiles will take you to 2 other different locations. One of the locations is the harbour of Gobaith and the other one are the Sirani Islands. The Sirani Islands have a smaller docking side. All shipping docks work the same way.

You need to find the harbour of Gobaith. After you did this follow the street north where you will find road signs. You can read that signs by just clicking them. After you see where the road leads to. The centeral town of Illarion is Trollsbane. But Greenbriar is nicely populated as well. You can got to both targets be following the streets. Just read all the road signs so you don't get lost.

Welcome to Illarion,

I duno where i was but there was a vendor who sold me a book who opened a portal to trollsbane so im there now.

Another question... is it possible that someone ingame is invisible or something??? Today i was talking to a halfling and he was asking me to show myself (cant be the name since i introduced myself)
And than someone came and told him to stop talking with himself and here the odd thing is ... I didnt see nobody else but me and the halfling... so i wonder how to show myself if i really am invisible or something or if its rp... ?

And another one... where or how can i see the umm not level but the skillbar?

Invinsible no, but you might jsut stood outside of his line of view, that means behind a tree or something the skills can be viewed with pressing f8.

Depends on your perception. I know for a fact people with low perception can't see fairies, I don't know if it works the other way round. In fog I can't see fairies one square away.

Perception is the ability to identify things quickly. It can be used by fighters to locate weak points on its enemy and is crucial for an archer since he/she has to attack from long distances. It is also needed for successfully reading treasure maps, the higher it is the easier it is to locate the treasure precisely. Rumor: (not sure if these are correct) perception allows you to see things that are farther away even if they are behind a tree for instance.

1. You get something people call "Swirli" its asicly a blue spiral around your char, that means you gained 1% in the Craft or whatever you just did
2.Yes but it takes some time, atleast 5 swirlies untill you see a sligthly change of colour
3. use !l fairy, press enter and then just writte your senence.
l = small L
