====Seek out special NPC's====There are unique opportunities for animal players. For instance, if you're playing as a Cow, Deer, or Pig, seek out the [[Suspicious Cow]], an NPC cow in the fields of Eltibule. She can sell you While some '''animal-specific abilities''', and even has a unique dye recipe that is otherwise unobtainable ("drab grass green"). She also sells belts for each of those animal forms. Werewolves should look for NPCs shun [[SanjaBeast Forms]] the wolf, in the forests off the coast of Kur. And every animal player others will find it helpful to talk only be willing to interact with them. There are [[FliaAwakened]], a fairy animals in the wilds of Serbulesmall camps and outposts across Alharth that offer alternative places to train and shop.==== NPC & Animal Interactions Town ====Certain NPCs will not speak to you while you are an animal[[Animal Town]] is a hidden refuge in [[Sun Vale]] populated by various species of talking animals. Especially Some of the ones in residents are [[SerbuleAwakened]], while others are were-creatures, or were granted intelligence by unknown methods. (Note: This also has the consequence that the storage for JoehHumans, Rakshasa, Orcs, MarnaFairies, Ivyn and Tadion may not be available. At the moment those storages Elves are available to animals through forbidden from entering the Serbule central storage closet in town, and will be forcibly removed by the room between Hulon and Marna). But to counter that there are Animal NPCs in deadly [[Animal TownSummoned Guardian]] which is in [[Sun Vale]], who will speak to you, but only after you have been an Animal for 3 in game hourss.

For general advice* It is advised that new characters wait to become a [[Beast Forms|Beast Form]], avoid playing as an animal unless absolutely certainespecially a [[Lycanthropy|Lycanthrope]], and after you until they have explored zones such as [[Serbule and Etilbule as a human]], and gotten at least some storage space, NPC favors done[[Serbule Hills]], and gotten used to the general feel of the game[[Eltibule]]. Because starting off as an Animal can be hard or trying for a new player. Be aware that the Animal Forms stack. If you are a cowFor characters with low-level Combat Skills, and drink transforming into a [[Deer JuiceBeast Form]] potion, you will appear and loosing access to many shopkeepers and other services can be a Deersurprise. However you are also still cursed as a Cow. So after drinking an Un-Deer JuiceUntil ''{{favor}}'' is built up with NPC Shopkeepers that speak to animals, you will not be in human form, but income and progress will be a Cow againlikely temporarily plummet.

When just starting animal say something in Nearby chat every 5 min or so. That way you will get exp in your * If a [[Beast SpeechForms|Beast Form]]sounds fun to try, and won't bother people in Globalit may be wise to obtain a method of removing the form before transformation. You can also set up If an unprepared character drinks a new chat{{Item|Spider Juice}}, they will need to fight their way through the entire [[Serbule Crypt]] to reach the NPC selling the {{Item|Un-channel with Spider Juice}}... or rely on a unique name and use that as a private channel to randomly type in, to level up Beast Speechhelpful adventurer.

To (some) animals Joeh * [[Beast Forms]] stack. If a Rakshasa cursed by [[Maronesa]] into a [[Cow]] drinks a {{Item|Deer Juice}}, they will not talk. Thus causing transform into a problem for those players when trying [[Deer]] and loose access to sell gear loothave Cow abilities active in combat. When they drink an {{Item|Un-dropsDeer Juice}}, they will return to Cow form instead of Rakshasa. Please know If that Rakshasa also happens to be a [[Roshun the TraitorLycanthropy|Lycanthrope]] talks , they will be forced from either Cow or Deer forms into wolf during the full moon. When the moon ends, they will return to animals and also buys gearwhichever form they were before the moon phase began.

Storage unlocked * A common method to improve [[Beast Speech]] is to send a message in Serbule (from Joeh, Ivyn a private channel every five minutes or Marna) so. This will seem raise Beast Speech without Global having to be unavailable to animals since those NPC's wont talk to them. That storage hear sentences of just Moo/Baa/Naa which can be accessed (happen at least as very low levels of the moment this is written) through the Bookshelf (between Marna's and Hulon's house)[[Beast Speech]].

3-sylabe word * Newly transformed [[Beast Forms]] may have a surplus of powers include ones that will grant you illusionarmor after exploring a dungeon, making you look like elf for 2 min. can be helpfull when talking as they no longer have access to NPCs[[Joeh]] as a shopkeeper. Note that Spiders can learn The Orc merchant [[Roshun the Traitor]], living in a spell Illusion (that consumes a moonstone) to take human form for some minutesbuilding near the [[Eltibule]] portal, speaks with animals and buys equipment.

You definately should start working * Although most storage-offering NPCs in Serbule shun animals, storage spaces unlocked on favor them while in humanoid form can be accessed from the bookshelf in the building between [[Animal TownMarna]] asap, especialy if you are full time animal and [[Hulon]]'s shops. (eg - not wolfNote: This may change in the future) .

Animal forms * [[Beast Forms]] (and specifically Cow at first), was were at first 'a fluke' by the Dev'sDevelopers.Citan / Eric originally only intended the Animal forms Beast Forms to be a very temporary curse. Intended , intended only as 'punishment' and to be cured ASAP. <br>He / they were was surprised to find that certain players wanted to continue playing in that their animal form. And forms, and subsequently the different animal forms and their abilities and playstyle were further developed.
