{{Version box|version=0.90.4}}

Your first day in '''[[Draft:Rampart|Rampart]]''' is a chance to choose a career, obtain dependable equipment and arrange food and recovery before exploring [[Draft:LOCUS|LOCUS]]. You do not need to buy an expensive weapon or enter an arena fight immediately. A useful first goal is to leave town with equipment actually in use, a little food in reserve and enough money or a suitable guild membership to recover from an unsuccessful trip.

This guide covers an ordinary newly generated character in Omega 0.90.4. Restored games and reused character records can have different resources. See [[Draft:Your first weapon|Your first weapon]] for detailed weapon choices and combat setup.

__TOC__

== Take stock before spending ==
A fresh character begins neutral and without equipment. Check your actual cash: the default is 250 Au, but a randomly generated Omegan receives between 0 and 495 Au. Your starting attributes can also make a free guild package available or rule it out. You begin with food already in your stomach, so buying a meal need not be your first expense.<ref name="start">{{Source|char.c|16|106}} Starting inventory, alignment, cash and food; {{Source|char.c|550|585}} Random character generation.</ref>

The clock starts at '''12:00'''. [[Draft:Julie's Armor of Proof and Weapons of Quality|Julie's]] is closed for the entire noon hour, as well as from 21:00 through 06:59. Decide on a guild and locate supplies while waiting for the shop to reopen. This also avoids buying a weapon that a guild would have supplied.<ref name="hours">{{Source|omega.c|113}} Initial time; {{Source|util.c|500|524}} Clock and nighttime; {{Source|site1.c|164|185}} Armorer opening hours.</ref>

Use '''M''', then '''?''', to see known establishments. Enter a listed name and press Return to travel there. Useful names include '''mercenary guild''', '''order of paladins''', '''arena''', '''collegium magii''', '''hospice''', '''armorer''' and '''fast food'''. Shops occupy varying buildings between games. If a shop is missing from the list, explore the streets and read its sign; learning the sign registers it for travel. The [[Draft:Rampart|city map]] helps distinguish fixed sites from these changing shop locations.<ref name="travel">{{Source|command3.c|1047|1094}} City travel; {{Source|aux3.c|801|909}} Establishment names and selection; {{Source|city.c|303|435}} Shop assignment; {{Source|site2.c|636|650}} Reading shop signs.</ref>

City travel takes game time and processes ongoing conditions. Nearby hostile monsters can prevent it. Treat it as a convenient way around town, not an escape spell or a way to suspend poison while looking for help.<ref name="travel" />

== Choose a starting route ==
The Legion, Order and Arena are mutually exclusive for a new applicant. Choose their benefits before accepting one of them. These are practical starting options, not a requirement to join every organization you can afford.

{| class="wikitable"
! Route !! Entry requirement !! Immediate benefit !! First-day tradeoff
|-
| [[Draft:Legion of Destiny|Legion of Destiny]] || Strength at least 10, Constitution at least 12; visit during the day || Short sword, soft leather armor, 500 Au and +1 Strength and Constitution || A straightforward equipped start with cash left for supplies. It closes off Order and Arena registration.
|-
| [[Draft:Order of Paladins|Order of Paladins]] || Positive alignment; no Legion or Arena membership || A fully identified blessed +1 spear and a horse, already mounted || Strong starting equipment and useful return services, but you must maintain a lawful career. No armor is supplied on joining.
|-
| [[Draft:Rampart Coliseum|Arena registration]] || Strength at least 13, Agility at least 12; no Legion or Order membership || Club, large round shield, 5,000 Au of Gym credit and an extra combat maneuver || Register with '''r'''; you need not enter a fight to receive the package. Gym credit cannot buy food or equipment.
|-
| [[Draft:Collegium Magii|Collegium Magii]] || Intelligence at least 13; not a current Circle of Sorcerors member || Membership, +1 Intelligence and Power, and permission for one spell research attempt || Tuition is 1,000 Au unless Intelligence is at least 18, when a scholarship covers it. You still need equipment; a research opportunity is not a guaranteed combat spell.
|-
| Buy basic equipment first || Enough cash; no guild required || A weapon and armor chosen at Julie's || Keeps your career options open. You pay for supplies and recovery yourself until you arrange another source.
|}
The packages and admission conditions come from the corresponding guild menus. The Arena's extra maneuver applies to registered members, but it is not automatically inserted into an existing combat sequence.<ref name="guilds">{{Source|guild1.c|12|80}} Legion admission; {{Source|guild1.c|300|348}} Arena registration; {{Source|guild2.c|671|711}} Order admission; {{Source|guild2.c|308|355}} College admission; {{Source|guild2.c|438|442}} Research opportunity; {{Source|effect3.c|271|307}} Research outcomes; {{Source|aux3.c|1168|1181}} Maneuver allowance.</ref>

For the Order route, a neutral character with at least 1 Au can visit the [[Draft:Rampart Orphanage and Hospice for the Needy|hospice]] and donate '''1 Au'''. That raises neutral alignment enough to join. It does not meet all later promotion requirements. Returning to the Order with nonpositive alignment can get you expelled and sent to jail, so its recovery services depend on your subsequent conduct.<ref name="order">{{Source|site2.c|1027|1054}} Donations; {{Source|guild2.c|671|735}} Alignment checks, joining and return services.</ref>

The [[Draft:Circle of Sorcerors|Circle of Sorcerors]], [[Draft:Thieves' Guild|Thieves' Guild]] and [[Draft:Rampart Pantheon|religions]] provide other career choices. Follow their individual admission and conduct rules. In particular, you can buy identification from the Thieves' Guild without becoming a member; paying its joining fee is not a prerequisite for checking one uncertain item.<ref name="thieves">{{Source|guild2.c|11|97}} Nighttime and admission; {{Source|guild2.c|155|196}} Identification for members and nonmembers.</ref>

Joining your chosen guild before earning experience lets subsequent gains count toward its progression. Experience earned before joining is not retroactively added to that guild. Additional active guild experience tracks divide later awards, so joining several organizations immediately can slow progress in each.<ref>{{Source|aux1.c|659|669}} Experience distribution.</ref>

== Buy what the package leaves out ==
At Julie's, '''w''' opens weapons and '''a''' opens armor. Ordinary stock is fully identified. A plain dagger costs '''10 Au''', a flak jacket '''10 Au''', and soft leather armor '''20 Au'''. A Legion recruit already has a sword and leather; buying another basic weapon immediately is usually a lower priority than food and recovery money. An Order recruit already has a good spear but still has an armor slot to fill.<ref name="shopping">{{Source|site1.c|164|231}} Purchases and identification; {{Source|iinit.h|174|180}} Dagger and short sword; {{Source|iinit.h|257|261}} Basic armor; {{Source|aux2.c|522|535}} Stock valuation.</ref>

As a small budget example, a dagger, soft leather armor and two fast-food rations cost '''40 Au''' altogether. This is a starting set, not a claim that every character should use a dagger indefinitely. A character with less cash can take an eligible guild package or start with the cheaper jacket. Compare weapon choices in [[Draft:Your first weapon|Your first weapon]] before spending the rest of your purse on an upgrade.<ref name="shopping" /><ref name="food">{{Source|site1.c|602|644}} Takeaway rations and the Diner.</ref>

Use '''i''' to arrange inventory and check which items are in use. A weapon in the backpack does not help your melee score: place it in Weapon hand and use it. Keep a known weapon while you investigate a dungeon find; putting a cursed weapon into use can leave it stuck. [[Draft:Identification|Identification]] tells you what you have, but does not remove its curse.<ref>{{Source|inv.c|1345|1452}} Equipment changes and curse restrictions; {{Source|aux1.c|281|350}} Equipped weapon contribution; {{Source|effect1.c|494|549}} Identification.</ref>

Before the first fight, set an explicit attack and defense sequence with '''F'''. For a new character's two maneuvers, '''a c b c Return''' selects an attack at Center and a defense at Center. Revisit the sequence after Arena registration or changing weapon styles. The '''!''' shortcut is faulty in 0.90.4 and can save only part of the displayed sequence. The details and tradeoffs are explained in [[Draft:Melee attacks|Melee attacks]].<ref>{{Source|command3.c|597|781}} Combat sequence editor; {{Source|aux2.c|636|725}} Executing the sequence.</ref>

== Carry food and keep a recovery option ==
[[Draft:Commandant Sonder's|Commandant Sonder's]], listed as '''fast food''', sells portable rations for '''5 Au each''' and is open around the clock. The [[Draft:Rampart Diner|Diner]] instead charges 25 Au for a meal eaten on the spot. Eating there does not put a ration in your pack. Take a small reserve for your trip rather than assuming a full stomach will last indefinitely.<ref name="food" />

Recovery choices differ in what they actually fix:

{| class="wikitable"
! Service !! Cost and availability !! What it provides
|-
| [[Draft:Rampart Healers|Healers]], '''a''' || 50 Au || Restores 20-39 HP, up to maximum. It does not include the separate disease treatment.
|-
| Healers, '''b''' || 250 Au || Clears disease; this is not the poison treatment.
|-
| [[Draft:The Centaur and Nymph|Tavern]], '''b''' || 10 Au, at night || Clears poison and disease. It does not directly restore HP.
|-
| Tavern, '''d''' || 25 Au, at night || Bed and breakfast: clears poison and disease, feeds you and advances the clock by 6-9 hours. It does not directly restore HP.
|-
| Return to the Order || No charge for an eligible member with positive alignment || Restores HP to maximum, clears poison and disease, provides a meal and replaces a missing mount. It does not remove equipment curses.
|}
Nighttime runs from 21:00 through 06:59. A treatment that becomes available tonight is not a reason to keep travelling with poison or severe injuries now. The tavern's overnight clock change should not be mistaken for several hours of ordinary resting and healing.<ref>{{Source|site2.c|164|191}} Healer effects; {{Source|site1.c|669|801}} Tavern menu and overnight branch; {{Source|guild2.c|713|735}} Order return services; {{Source|util.c|520|524}} Nighttime.</ref>

If you depend on paid treatment, retaining 50 Au can be more useful than a small weapon upgrade. If you depend on the Order instead, keep its alignment requirement in mind. Reserve any known healing or escape consumables for a situation where they actually improve your chances; test uncertain finds while you can still obtain help, or pay to identify them first.

== Leave with a purpose ==
After equipping yourself, consult the [[Draft:Oracle of the Cyan Flames|Oracle]]. Ring the bell with '''b''' and decline the attack prompt. Before you have spoken to the Archdruid, her advice points you toward his forest shrine. Her later directions change with your progress; they provide a reason for your next expedition, not a promise that every destination is safe at level 0.<ref>{{Source|site2.c|807|895}} Oracle conversation and progress checks.</ref>

Before using '''M''' to travel to '''city gates''', check that your weapon and armor are in use, your combat sequence includes the actions you intended, and food and emergency items are accessible. Confirm that your health and any ongoing conditions permit a trip. Use the [[Draft:LOCUS|LOCUS map]] to plan a destination, and return for treatment or resupply when necessary. With confirmation enabled, the gate asks before changing to the countryside.<ref name="travel" /><ref>{{Source|site2.c|794|804}} Leaving the city.</ref>

== Earlier advice ==
Rick Garner Sanders's 1995 ''Omega FAQ'' recommends choosing a guild before buying equipment, carrying food, and asking the Oracle what to do next. Those priorities fit the 0.90.4 services described here. Its recommendation of the paladins also comes with a version warning: their curse-removal service belongs to older versions, and should not be assumed when planning this opening.<ref>Rick Garner Sanders, ''Omega FAQ'', sections 2a-2c; text updated 20 April 1995, posted 3 October 1995. Executable version not established. Preserved locally as <code>staging/manuals/omega-0.75-faq.txt</code>.</ref>
