Calling all Swashbucklers to OutremerMUX!

First, the general stuff: it's an originally-themed MUX, based on our world in the early 17th century--it's like the Three Musketeers in a fantasy world. It's RP-mandatory, and the level of RP looks very high so far (only been open a week, though.) Focus is on scheming, political plotting, duelling, and social RP. World is extremely small, to foster RP. Factional membership is mandatory. It's probably one of those elitist RP-intensive games; if you don't like those, you won't like this. If you do, you will.

Now, for specific roles:

The Queen's Escort needs members. The Escort serves the Dowager Queen of Ardainne, and competes against the King's Immortals (who are a bunch of rowdy knaves in tabards) and the Cardinal's Guard (who are grimly loyal to the too-ambitious Cardinal). The Escort, however, is known both for its excellence of style--yeah, we look gooooood!--and for our loyalty to the Queen, who is the leading voice of the Orthodoxy (and not a boy-king, like her son, or a slimy operator, like the Cardinal). Members should probably be guardsmen or women (the Escort is the most female-friendly of the three Great Companies) or their lackeys or minions. There are also a few roles for peope who are associated to the Escort, but not actually members.

You could join the Immortals or Guard, too ... but then I'd have to challenge you to a duel, you blackguard, and you'd not escape *that* with your honor--or your skin--intact!

Oh, and the game's only open for playtesting. It's definitely ready for great RP, but there are also a bunch of kinks still being smoothed out.

Anyway. Check it out:
