Broken Cycle
This is just to let you all know about a new MUD called Broken Cycle that I've been developing for the past 3 years. It's almost ready to open for player testing, however I'm trying to gauge interest at the moment as I know there are a lack of roleplay focused MUD's at the moment, or at least the ones I've visited are empty or struggling, so I wanted to ask who may be interested.
The MUD I'm developing is an RPI mud, which means the focus is placed heavily on roleplay and on everyone participating in a story, like character's in a book, however it also has a combat system that can be used along with and as part of roleplaying. If anyone has played Shadow Siege or Echoes of Albion or Dark Isles they will know what I mean by this.
The story will start off in a village in a valley in a remote mountainous region of the game world that is effectively cut off from civilisation for 5 months of the year by snow which blocks the pass out of the valley. The level of technology will be similar to medieval europe and the total village population will not be more than 400. The main threat will be from wild animals and the climate, however the story will progress from that to involve other beings and phenomena.
It will be a mix of medieval fantasy meets science fiction and the story will be quite unique and adaptable, unfolding as it goes along and able to be influenced by the actions of the characters. I'm looking for players that like writing and could think up some good plots and ways to stir up roleplay with their characters. If this sounds like you then let me know?
Any feedback on what I've posted here would be appreciated and I'll try to answer any questions as well. I'll post the connection details as soon as the MUD is up and running.
