Hi guys,
Has been almost 10 years since i have played any muds.
Im looking to get back into muds but the ones i use to play are no longer active.
The type of muds im looking for are like Aturions Dynasty, Lands of Chaos, Fatemud, Midpoint Void.
The code type of these muds were Emlen and im not sure if anyone uses them anymore.
Any information on muds based like these ones listed would be great.
Nice to meet you all!

I know none of these MUDs.

Can you describe what specific features you demand from a MUD?

Then it would be easier to answer.

You've just described almost every single mud in existence. Not mushes/mucks, but muds. No kidding--all of them have about 3/4 of your features; even minimaps and automapping are standard these days. I only hesitate to say absolutely all because I'm not sure what a "battle grounds" or a "sect" is, especially what makes the latter different from clans or the former different from arenas, and because many muds don't have multiclassing. For what you sound like you'd want, try any of the smaug or diku muds; in general, the top 20 list here and the mud rankings on mudconnect will give you an idea what's good and active.

Hi Ryanina!

If you are looking for some great roleplay along with your adventuring come visit New Worlds Ateraan. We have the following features to entice and make you come back and love text games again:The game is just frankly amazing.

We do not, however, offer realtime maps beyond what you find in a client program. Most our players find they are distracting to roleplay and make you feel like you are playing a cheap version of WoW.

Good Luck in your search Ryanina and welcome back to the true land of Fantasy!

Alter Aeon has pretty much everything you've asked for, except for lootable PK corpses and good/evil homelands. One thing that caught my eye was multiclassing - AA was designed from the ground up to be multiclass, and I dare say we do it better than a lot of other multiclass games.

Stop by and check us out - we have a custom client with a good, integrated mapper that does both indoor and outdoor maps.

Well, most of these muds DO have what i asked for but they also have roleplaying as encouraged or mandatory, ive never played a Roleplay mud in my life of mudding just flat out pk combat that was unrestricted and world pk.
So as far as i can tell from looking at the mud list i guess the type of mud im looking for no longer around anymore period.The other problem i ran into most of these newer muds do not work with my Mud client that i have used for years of my mudding, which was another frowner. Thanks for trying guys.

Alter Aeon allows RP, but it's pretty rare and not in any way required. The open PK thing isn't going to happen though - we had permanent registration based pk for a few years, but it attracted a type of player I'm not interested in and caused more problems than it was worth.

If I'm not mistaken, you might be looking for GodWars II, or perhaps Arctic. Try looking those up on mudconnector and see if they fit your bill.

Good luck!
