First off, greetings to both of you and welcome to Nimbaterra!
Most of the people I see around and have talked to seem to enjoy having a fresh start somewhere new, but it does not mean you have to wipe your character's rich history. If you were a duke somewhere else you could certainly continue that profession on the isles here. You could tell your story to others but the universe here does not have any tie to any other dreams in Furcadia. Instead of using the name of another dream, for example, when asked about where you used to work you might say "on a faraway island" or "an establishment in the lower lands."
Den marking is available to anyone and nobody has a claim on any single den. If there are no furres in the den of your choice, simply use the command
*Mark followed by your message and you will overwrite the previous one. Dens are semi-private in that anyone can come in at any time and they cannot be locked the way rooms are. However, it is considered rude for a furre to come in to an occupied den when others are there. It's okay if you weren't aware of it when you first climb down, but if it is occupied I would suggest seeking out an empty den. Den "privacy" is enforced to a light degree. If you have told an intruder to leave and they have not, please contact myself or Lunati ingame and we will send them to another area in the dream.
Finally, the Club Worker profession is a wide spectrum class that covers everyone from dancers, masseuses, bartenders, entertainers and even janitors. If you were a duke previously, I would actually suggest the Noble class. More information about our professions can be found on the website
here.If you would like to stay a Club Worker, you are welcome to do that, too! As a Club Worker, you can certainly interact with patrons at a bar! Bartenders fall under the Club Worker title and even entertainers are known to sing and tell poetry while others around them are enjoying a drink.
If you have any more questions about the dream and they aren't covered in the
FAQ on our site feel free to whisper me and I will do my best to supply an answer!
Hoping you both enjoy your stay here and thank you so much for choosing us for your RP endeavours. It is always a joy to see more roleplayers around!
Cheers!
