Dip into my words and pictures with these two random samples.
Personae start off as fighters and become magic-users by successfully touching the Touchstone. I use the word 'successfully' because, in MUD, it is possible to completely lose a persona; if a persona dies in combat, all points are lost and the persona is wiped from the records (termed DEAD DEAD). Otherwise, you can become DEAD through actions like poisoning, when not all of the points are lost. Thus, unsuccessfully touching the Touchstone means a DEAD DEAD death and only magic-users can become wizzes. more...
