Welcome Tyeisha!
Like Nate said, if you have any questions feel free to ask and somebody will gladly help you out. This goes for while you are at the game too-- everybody was new once and the rules are literally an entire book long, so don't be afraid to ask for a clarification. Heck, I've been with this chapter a few years now and I am still learning!
As far as playing a dark elf goes, I recommend picking up a long sleeved black "under armour" heat gear style shirt (doesn't have to be name brand, just something lightweight and synthetic that wicks moisture if possible) and a pair of black gloves or glove liners in addition to the makeup requirements. You will want to be careful about overheating as this game can be extremely physical and athletic at times. I also carry a small wooden folding fan to help keep cool. On the flip side, September can be chilly at night so make sure you bring things to layer too and keep warm.
I look forward to meeting you soon!
