I'll add my 2 'sid and recommend Armageddon as well. Warning though - it's hard-core roleplay. If you want to play a giddy fun-loving happy-go-lucky whatever, your character probably won't last long. The world of Armageddon is *dangerous.* If you get lost walking around town, you could end up in some very nasty places, and death in Arm is permanent.

HOWEVER:

If you are into intrigue, politics, diplomacy, social backstabbing, plotting and scheming and conniving your way just to survive, there's nothing better out there that I've tried. The risk of death looming around every corner is awesome and the opportunity to become a "mover and shaker" tantalizing.

Another warning...due to a relatively small player base (the first game I ever played had over 1000 people playing at any given moment when I finally left, so small is relative), mornings can be very boring. But even when there's only 5 people online at 7 in the morning (EST), you can still find things to do, particularly in practicing your skills and learning the system. Read the online manual VERY carefully before applying for a character. It's a free game, but you have to submit a character history and get it approved before being able to play. Keeps the snerts out that way, so that's a bonus.
