The great Creator, Sygis, has passed from this world and into the next.
He will be greatly missed by those of us who knew him in the real world, and were fortunate enough to call him friend. The world of Foxmud has lost quite possibly its largest advocate.
There is much else that can be said, and perhaps should be said, but now is a time for rememberance, and reflection on a life lived well, although still cut way too short.
(Originally written by Hawthorne on Fox MUD's internal board, but sincerely felt by all who knew him)
FoxMUD is a great text based online RPG that I have been playing for a few years now. Fox MUD has four classes (Cleric, Mage, Warrior, Thief) and when you create your character you pick your class order based on which class you wish to accel most in. You can level up and gain skills in any class, but the exp required to level up in your 4th class pick is much greater than that required for your primary class. You are also able to gain Lord levels in your primary class. Lord levels allow you to specialize a bit and gain more powerful skills.
Hop on and give it a shot. telnet to foxmud.com 4848 or click here. If you want some tips on creating your character check out this Character Creation Guide.
Gratz Kyrie for making Lord on the funserver. This brings the funserver quest to an end. For now the server will still be up, but the quest is no longer running.
FoxMUD is back up and running. The new address is mud.foxmud.com 4848. The fun server is still up and running on mud.foxmud.com 4747. For now the quest is still running. I will post when it has ended.
I am going to remove all holy weapons. Muahahahaha, but check in the other post as I will be amending rewards as this does increase the difficulty. This is part of an experiment to see just how much the holy weapons change the low end game.
Running a leveling quest. Since everybody is pretty much equal now. This quest will run until the live server comes back up so if the server is up tomorrow then the quest is over tomorrow. You are only allowed to participate with 1 char. The char creation date has to be AFTER this post was made. So that is 10:00 PM CST on 11/30/2011.
