Abandoned Realms

The Abandoned Realms is an RP enforced, PK encouraged MUD in a fantasy setting that has been up and running constantly since ~1997. It boasts some of the best RP and PK opportunities to be had. You can delve into role play and write backgrounds, write books/songs/poems, contribute to the in-game newspaper, build your own manor. You can arm yourself to the teeth and take on your enemies, grinning as you stand over their bloodied corpse and consider what gear you would like to claim. Or you can do both (most characters delve deeply into both RP and PK)!

We have a vibrant player base with ~5-15 players in-game at any given time. We have players from all over the world (North America, Europe, Asia, Austrailia). They may not be visible, but the Immortals are ever present, lurking in the shadows, yearning to answer questions and absorb feedback from young adventurers.

You can engage in the community as much or as little as you want. There is an always-active discord channel (NO OOC coordination for PK) where you can meet others, whether they are grizzled veterans or fresh newcomers or anything in-between. Chat about life in general or freely ask game specific questions – new players are always welcomed and aided. You can read/write posts in the forum, review logs to see battles/role play, read about the game/races/classes on the website, peruse the help files on the website, and even see item attributes and locations on the website (via the codex).

You will never be the same.
