So started playing in 99, the mud has gone through much change. However, it's still a great place to roleplay and do some text based D&Ding. Player base is down a bit but the mud has gotten some major updates moving towards 3.x. Be nice to see some new blood.

The mud is RP enforced so expect to stay in character. There is a system of imms(coders) and avatars(dms) that run the mud. However, players are encouraged to not rely on dms for rp. There is a knockout system for pk so pks can lead to all kinds of rp, including capture torture or whatever creative plots can be thought up.

Classes can be combine in 3.x fashion and include psion, mage, bard, paladin, antipaladin, knight, thief, bard and fighter. More information can be found at the newly created shadowgate wiki. Shadowgate.org
