While C++ would be my personal choice out of the options you gave for a from-scratch MUD, C is definitely going to be better for someone who has basically nil coding experience.

*edit*

my reasoning?

The C Programming Language: 272 pages. Thorough tutorial, language definition, and standard library API guide included.

The C++ Programming Language: 911 pages. Same features as above.

As you would guess by looking at the numbers, learning C++ is quite a bit more demanding.
