Adria has many ways for you to get your questions answered, and to get to know more about Adria. You are welcome
to talk to anyone!

-------------------------------------------------- HOSPITALER ---------------------------------------------
Every region has a Hospitaler whose job it is to answer your questions. They will have a list of the local ministers.
They should also have copies of the manuals and guides. Most importantly, if they don't know the answer to your
questions, they can point you to someone who does!

--------------------------------------------- TOO BUSY TO TALK ----------------------------------------
If someone is busy at the moment, they may guide you to someone else who can help you. This isn't meant to be
disrespectful, just that they are very busy at the moment. Many of the ministers are on tight schedules at events, and
often have their hands full. If several people are talking, and someone raises a hand when you approach, it is a good
sign that they are in a meeting and would like you wait for a moment before interrupting.

Sometimes, a Crown will request "proper respect." This, too, isn't meant to be insulting. Remember that we are
recreating a medieval atmosphere; approaching a Crown with a hearty slap on the back would have gotten you thrown
in prison – or worse!

-------------------------------------------------THE INTERNET --------------------------------------------
If you have a computer, and internet access, it will make it easier to find information and answers. If you don't have
this type of access, don't fret, just pick up a phone or talk to people at the events.

The Adrian Empire has an Imperial website:
http://www.adrianempire.org/
. This website has much of the information
you will be looking for (manuals, Frequently Asked Questions, etc.). These are provided in PDF format.
Links are provided to the various regions, and the ministers (both regional and Imperial).
There are a number of e-lists that are very active. Some are regional e-lists, and some are geared toward various
interests. Some are restricted to ministers only, but most are open to all. The Imperial Webmaster, or your local
Hospitaler can provide you with a listing of these e-lists (most are through Yahoo Groups, and 95% contain the
keyword "Adria".)
