Dark Legacy is a mud that has taken quite a few steps toward that goal of originality. The builders have worked diligently to add unique areas to replacing the usual stock areas, piles of unique and interesting equipment, and many well thought out class and race selections. Leveling is challenging, but enjoyable, with the emphasis being placed on roleplaying done after you have developed your character.

The deities, worship, and favor system works well permitting corpse retrieval and recall. A nicely developed guild and sect system is in place. Crafting which allows players to be self-sufficient and able to make a special items to sell.

Roleplay is welcomed and appreciated, but certainly not required. The immortals are not only newbie friendly, but also participate in much of the roleplay including assistance with the those just entering into the world of RP. This mud seems to have plenty to offer to experienced roleplayers, and to the player who is more hack and slash oriented.

Overall, this mud seems to be quite enjoyable, and I have found myself spending many hours (probably more than I should) immersed into it.
