Welcome! If/when you're seriously think about joining Mage don't be afraid to ask me any questions. It can be quite intimidating, but we've got a few recent players who are getting used to all that as well, so you'd be in good company.
In the meantime this checklist is probably the most important thing to begin playing here, if you haven't already seen it. And as Orianna said, the wiki and the respective OOC Forums of the venue hold a lot of important and helpful information.
