Miriani is a Space oriented MUD, which is based on the MOO codes. I've played here since it opened, the moo is based on old Star Conquest MOO (1998-2005?) The moo is oriented to players be piloting starships on grid like space. Space combat is not spammy like other MOOS. Space is 3D, but it will not seem like it to anyone using the ships.

Pilots start out with money for their first ship. In order to get larger ships, pilot points & combat points have to be earned.

The worlds of Miriani are very detailed, but still work in progress. There many things to do, mining (atmospheric & asteroid), couriering, deep space exploration for artifacts, & doing missions against aliens.

The moo is designed somewhat to get players to work together regardles of what faction they belong to. Though rarely do faction go to full blown war against one another. It still beta so its still being worked out.

Moo at current time (10/2007) is highly populated with near 30-40 people on busy nite. There is socializing here as again, being in character is important.

I've enjoyed myself here, i know some of folks here from previous Squidsoft MOOs that were producted (Star Conquest, GalaxyWeb, & etc).

This moo can be rather tough on people, especially the immature. This moo is designed to be Player vs Player, as well as non-player related things. From Shipwrecking players, stunning players, and also ship-jacking.

This is not normally done to newbies, but it can be unsettling if one is not used having players attacking one another. One must be reminded that players in character do it. However. the majority of players are fair and will help out someone in need.

Overall, its is fun and lively play to MUD if you're into scifi, combat and enjoy socializing in character.
