New Player Guide
Greetings Fair Traveler! Welcome to UO Stones! This guide is intended to give a brief overview of the shard and how to get started. You may find yourself with more questions please search the wiki in it's entirety or just use the the search option. We are not like all the cut n paste UO Servers that you will find out there. Many of our systems are custom built. Many skills have been reworked, especially anything that was "useless" has now been made a viable skill.
UO Stones Town Center
All new players start in this area. Be sure to explore this area fully. You'll find it is our main hub for players:

- Just outside you'll find the Monster Hunter who gives out Monster Contracts
- Corpse Summoner - he'll bring your corpse to you if you can't get to it.
- Vendor Stores
- Vote Stones
- Raffle Stones

Getting started:
New characters start inside Lord British's Castle in Trammel. You will find in your pack some unique items.
- Beginner's Guide (please read!)
- Codex of Wisdom (set 5 skills to 70)
- Reagent Storage (not blessed)
- Master Storage (for more info)
- A Rolled up tent (for more info)
- Codex of Fortune (which modifies stats)
You should use the Codices first and be sure to read the guide. Be sure to check the new player chest for some free starter gear and talk to the NPC, Sally the New Player Escort. Nearby you will find some player NPCs that you can escort for easy gold. There is also a protal to our training area. As Lord Britsh's castle is quite large you should spend some time exploring it as there area many things to see (and buy!). There are training weapons and training Rat Elementals at the back of the castle. You can either run there or use the ortal. Back where those are is also the entrance to our New Player Dungeon.
