The mission of the Realm of Utopian Dreams (RUD, est. 
1996) is to provide players an enjoyable and challenging 
mix of role-play, hack-and-slash, and talker features 
within a FREE mud setting.  Some of RUD's design choices 
emphasize role-play configurations: titles, character 
descriptions, pk ability, and nobility.  Other features 
respond to player needs for communication and interaction: 
channels, committees, the court system, and implementing 
player opinion and ideas--expressed in our Yahoo Group 
polls--in order to improve the game and to make the 
environment more exciting and friendly.

We offer 16 races, 16 classes, 12 remort-races, 16 remort-
classes, and 18 alignment-based original classes, each 
with special skills and abilities. Try your hand, for 
example, at playing a Geomancer, Samurai, Psiblade, 
Merchant, Ghostwalker, Pyromancer, or Espion.  We provide 
automated mapping, an automated quest system and noble-run 
quests, random mud-wide bonuses, random mud-wide remort and 
pk options, an on-line builder and one of the largest 
systems of on-line help files around.

Challenge yourself by becoming a Noble of the Realm, 
attempt 9 levels of Nobility, and earn special perks: build 
and add to your castle, extend your lands and influence, 
rent rooms to other players, tax citizens, jail criminals, 
run special quests, appoint deputies, serve as judges, host 
special role-play events, participate in individual and 
team pk when you wish, enjoy perks to your weapons, gain 
bonus quest points, and add to your Noble webpage.
