  • Remember, once you enter the game, you are in a dream. There is no mention of the real world and players are actively role-playing their characters.
  • Become familiar with the basics and role-playing. It is highly recommended that one reads the Dreamer's Manual and begin thinking of a persona that fits your role-play!
  • If assistance is required in-dream, it is okay to whisper another dreamer to ask for help. This can be done in one of two ways: Click on "Who" and double click on the dreamer's name, then type the message. Or if using the default chat system, click in the box below and type /whisper PlayerName and the message. For out-of-character questions (OOC) use brackets to specify this in a whisper. For example:


/whisper Kaigon ((Hello, I am having troubles navigating my game client window, can you help me? Much appreciated!))
