Well, this has been a long time coming. I've been playing Avendar: The Crucible of Legends now for roughly 7 years. I was 19 years old when I began. I discovered Avendar right here on TMC, and was intrigued by a description depicting a struggle between houses (clans) for stones of power that would render special abilities to members of that house, when acquired along with mandatory roleplaying in an entirely original world. I would like to touch on some key points.

Roleplaying - An absolutely phenomenal playerbase, with some of the best roleplayers and imaginations I've had the pleasure to interact with. The Admins have built a world rich in history and originality, so detailed that after seven years I still have only scratched the surface in many areas of gameplay.

Skills/classes/races - An incredible balance of gameplay, unique on level that I have not been able to find on any other mud. We're not talking about elves and dwarves and orcs here. Original races from the Ch'taren, masters of good and light to the eyeless Shuddeni, brilliant but frail dwellers of the deep earth. Incredibly thought out classes, including Swordmasters, Psionicists, Templars(Masters of combat and magic), the wizard class, known as scholars, capable of manipulating their chosen element, Fire, Water, Earth, Air, Spirit and the Void and casting such powerful spells as Demon Summoning(Void), Disintegration(Fire), and Avatar(Spirit). This is just a tiny taste of what Avendar has to offer.

Gameplay - In Avendar, you will have quests to perform, religions and Houses to join, and everything to sate your desires, from a balanced pk system to adventuring for wealth and power. Join the Guardians and protect the cities from the unlawful ilk who would lay them to waste or become a member of the Shunned, and plot your evil plans to spread your vile darkness throughout the lands. There are Champions of Light and Raiders of Twilight and followers of Dolgrael, soldiers of honor in all things. Or perhaps you would simply seek to distance yourself from society and amass your wealth to build your very own house, or tavern or even a keep. All these things and more are possible on Avendar...

Come and check it out, I can't possibly detail everything that Avendar has to offer, hopefully though, this will whet your appetite for more. See you there.
