Aardwolf isn't a RP mud, and their staff has tried to make that very clear to people who give them a hard time about it. You should take a look at the mudlist on this website, and try to match what you want with what's available.

Considering you come from Dragonrealms, I'd suggest you try a game where RP is encouraged, rather than enforced. DR isn't exactly filled with stellar RP, as it's designed to cater to a very wide variety of players and enforced RP would reduced their player base.

On the other hand, a game where RP is expected - but the idea of RP is looser than hard-core RP games, might suite you well. Inferno is one of those, and it's a pay-to-play game. Its combat and engagement system is similar to DragonRealms, but its skill and level advancement is closer to what Gemstone offers (with some rather pleasant differences). Training is done by spending builds, like training points in GS, except you earn them as you go rather than getting them all at once when you level up. This makes the notion of levels much less significant.

The RP is much - much - more serious than DR, but much less serious than some of the hard-core RP games. You might find it meets your needs perfectly.

If you want to take a gander, their URL is - and I -highly- suggest you read the documentation and manual before showing up with your first character. It's not the kind of game you can just log in and expect to do well in without having a good understanding of the world and the mechanics first.

They also have a free trial period, so you don't risk losing money if you decide it isn't for you.
