Beginners' Guide

Greetings, Adventurer! Welcome to Alyria, the vast fantasy world within Materia Magica.

Once you've created your character, you will find yourself in The School House.

It’s usually a good idea to practice at least one or two weapons, defenses (if applicable), and an offensive skill and spell, if available. We strongly advise AGAINST training stats or vitals, and instead, focus on practicing proficiencies and spells, exploring, completing miniquests and obtaining marks!

For Basic Training, you can type PRACTICE to see what skills are available for you to practice with Johann. To see a list of all of your current skills and spells, type SKILL PRO or SKILL SPELLS.

Any skills that appear in this list will be practicable, so if a skill isn’t there, you are not able to practice it.

You may spend 1 practice at a time, or up to 50 all at once per skill. EX: PRACTICE AXE 50 will spend 50 practice points to practice the WEAPON PROFICIENCY of AXE!

You are now ready to begin your adventure! Follow the path through the School House, and walk out into Lasley Valley. Follow the road north towards the Village of Lasler, stopping to see what some of the locals might have to say and complete their tasks.
