Features

'Tis said that only the Unique survive... and Legend is indeed a land of the truly Strange, for there are Elements found here that are Scarce indeed in other Worlds, and to the experienced Explorer they offer much to be discovered....

LegendMUD is a highly customized environment, with features unlike most muds you may have seen in the past. Below is a brief tour guide through some of the features that Legend offers which set it apart and make it special. They are in no particular order, so that you can browse through the pages in this section as you please.

Role-playing

Legend has a unique system which allows players to speak in much more realistic prose than is possible in traditional muds. Socialization demands eloquent expression, and Legend's facilities deliver this. Set up moods for your character that affect the output of your commands, and let your temperament show in your role-play. Legend also offers a wide array of features designed to enhance role-play, ranging from all the way to setting aside a special space, The Out of Character Lounge, for those who wish to just chat about their day at work or school. Lastly, a world is so bland if everyone is seen only by their name. Legend offers a system whereby players can register a special description so that they can each be seen in a unique, distinctive manner by all those around them. Read more here.

Player Housing

If you have ever hankered for a Spanish villa in Viceroyal Peru, or for a sturdy cottage bordering the deepest part of Sherwood Forest, now you can fulfill that dream. Legend offers a wide range of available housing, which players can actually build and furnish to suit.

Skills System

Legend was one of the first classless games on the Internet, and offers a unique and fascinating system for developing your character. Choose from a wide array of skills and abilities, and let your home time period and city determine how your character will grow. Read more here.

Magic

Spells on Legend aren't merely convenient macros you hit. Instead, magic is done by learning syllables in an arcane language, and finding the proper grammar and syntax to express them. Or perhaps you prefer the life of an herbalist, wherein the properties of herbs you might have growing in your garden are revealed to those who know how to make amulets, teas, and potions.

Fun Stuff

Legend pushes the boundaries in countless small ways as well. Missile weapons, vehicles ranging from the primitive to the technological, furniture you can sit in, under, or around, and countless other small touches make it a place where there's always something new to discover. Read more here.

Clan System

Anyone who plays online games is aware that the thing that keeps you coming back is other people. Legend offers a flexible clan system that allows players to form groups and clans with shared common interests on the fly, and offers a dynamic and flexible system for voting in clan leadership and managing the clan membership. And, of course, it also enables warfare between clans who are of a mind to do battle! Read more here.

Internal game mechanics

A powerful scripting language forms the backbone of Legend's unique features. This is used to make this the most interactive and vividly alive mud you may have ever seen. Read more here.
