| All characters start out with (KNOW x 500) EXP to spend in starting area and cultural lores for their home region and culture and those represented by their pregame history. For example, if you have created an Emerald Sea Barbarian, then you should use these EXP to buy quite a few ranks in Area Lore - Emerald Sea as well as Cultural Lore - Emerald Sea Barbarians. You might also spend a few on Cultural Lore - Emerald Sea Centaurs to reflect that your character has interacted with the centaurs of the area and maybe even a few ranks with the Centaur language. If you character has made a trip or three to Blue Mountain, you might also buy some ranks in the appropriate area and cultural lores for Blue Mountain. |
