@Tez was pointed out to me that you probably meant you need their email. Anyways, i asked and theyre all set but good to know!

@Tez what’s the email, i haven’t seen that info around anywhere! i also don’t look

@Ominous I recommend you log on and ask if you have questions about the game, since the creator can’t register for an account here and I myself am not staff.

@somasatori lmfao i had a similar reaction!!

replying to add that official launch is October 31st

Hi, disclaimer that this is not my, Artemis’s game, but a friend’s who doesn’t have an account!

The Empire of Adana has existed for six hundred years. The imperial house exerts only loose control over its major vassals and the empire much resembles a broad confederation or alliance. For most, that has meant six centuries of relative peace after the cataclysmic Third Greytide. The empire’s neighbours have rarely been able to challenge it openly, but the imperial frontier is far from safe.

The city of Sanctuary is the capital of the empire and home to the imperial court, a term encapsulating any noble who happens to be in the city, and any commoner able to move in noble circles. Sanctuary is the social heart of the empire, the place where alliances are formed and plans made, where even the most restless of adventurers go to find companions and to plan their next steps.

Empire is a fantasy lords and ladies-style MUSH telling the story of the Empire of Adana. It is a game of grand plans and great deeds, cunning plans and clever schemes, social butterflies and dour magistrates, mighty warriors and visionary rulers, gallant knights and monied merchants.

The game uses a roster system: all characters are prewritten and players may choose one.

Empire uses Cortex Prime, a straightforward setting-agnostic RPG toolkit, as a basis for its game system.

Day-to-day roleplay is set in the city of Sanctuary, the imperial capital. Player characters can act on the wider world through GMed events and off-screen actions.

Empire is built in Evennia, a MU* creation system.

@Pavel heard, but like that’s sort of what long-form descs are for? if im describing a black character for example i’ll include their skin tone, hair texture, etc and let people draw their own conclusions, same as i’d do with a white char. Otherwise, kind of gives the vibe that anything other than white is out of the ordinary and that feels sus and lame. Also worth noting that appearances can be misleading and ppl could maybe afford to assume less off visual cues alone.

cringes me out a little when someone uses racial/ethnic identifiers in a character desc, but like only for characters of color? lots of ppl don’t seem to feel they need to specify if the character is white but then very pointedly emphasize if a character is black/Asian/etc. weird to me.
this is all

@Ominous I support this

@Raistlin ehhhh I think it’s fair to put just a little bit of responsibility on the part of other players here. In my opinion, it’s simply not difficult to engage new players, invite them into things etc, and plenty of places have a really strong culture of this! There will always be players who don’t have the energy/time/interest to do all that, but it perplexes me when a whole game has given over to that cliquey type vibe. If I hop on an old game that I might otherwise really enjoy if only people included me in things, it just sends the message that the game isn’t actually very active.

@STD it would appeal to me!!

@Gashlycrumb fr. I might even take a stab at it myself if I had any kind of time like that rn. Maybe a lot of ppl are tired of l&l? Just gib us arx back :C

i just want a good old L&L mush to scratch my regency era itch gdi

@Raistlin i like this, wanna check it out

@junipersky could try mudrammer? https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mudrammer-a-modern-mud-client/id597157072
might not work if you dont use apple tho

@Mushling-0 lol bruh

Some people are good at writing descs and some aren’t, and being bad at it/not wanting to doesn’t detract from your skill as a writer. Im just saying to have no desc at all will never not be lame to me, it’s literally how im able to picture a character. To be honest, no, a lot of people do not adequately pose their character’s looks in a scene, because it is generally the cultural norm that they have a description for reference, or a pic!

@Prototart i could not play them if i wanted to because of this, it’s super ultra lame asf

executive function is a fucking miracle and superpower

speaking out against abusive players is difficult
