About 8 years ago, my brother showed me RoninMUD. I had never played a MUD before, but I have kept playing ever since. Over the years I have also tried other muds, but I have never found one as appealing to me as RoninMUD and have therefore never been away from Ronin for more than a few months at a time.

So, what makes RoninMUD a great MUD: Ronin has been around for over 15 years now, and through the great work of solid coders and enthusiastic area builders, it has become a large MUD with many areas to explore, many skills and spells to master, many puzzles to solve and many features to use. The fact that Ronin is a diverse MUD where you don't have to do the exact same things over and over again, but instead let you choose what you feel like doing, is in my opinion one of Ronins greatest strengths.

The 10 different classes of Ronin, with each their own strengths and unique subclass paths to pursue, and the possiblity to play up to 3 characters at a time make Ronin a MUD that suits many different player styles and preferences. So whether you prefer spellcasters or you'd rather have high melee damage and a beefy tank, you should be able to find a combination of classes that would satisfy your needs. Or you can choose to play a solo character, if that is more to your liking.

If you also would like to contribute to the mud by helping us expand our MUD with new areas or features, our Online Creation system and versatile code base makes your imagination the only boundary of creativity.
