LegendMUD is a mud unlike any other. I have played many muds and have
fought many beastly fidos and have traveled far and wide the vast
planes of creativity. And to be fair, many muds have met my
expectations on originality. But when I think of a mud I think of
LegendMUD.
It is COMPLETELY original and with an original theme to
fit it large and growing world. What makes LegendMUD or Legend, as
we call it, so unique is that instead of deriving from an 'AD&D'
world of dragons and centaurs or bearded magicians and thinly-shaped
rangers, we originate from the history of the world as it was told
throughout the centuries. That is to say, LegendMUD is the legends
and myths and more importantly, the history, of the real world.
Players are able to interact in three different eras: Ancient,
Medieval, and Industrial. Each era represents a range of years and
every area in that specific era represents a piece of history,
legend or myths of that time.
The world is continually growing as you can imagine. There are
countless legends and myths and pieces of history yet to be told in
the game. And because of this our playerbase is constantly changing.
Unlike many muds or mushes we have a strong, friendly playerbase
that is growing large as the mud expands. But everyone is welcome
for there is something for everyone: Pkill, RP events, historic
quests and mobiles, items galore, player interaction that involve
player creativity, and housing--YES! LegendMUD allows player housing.
Furniture? YOU BET! Not only can you create your own house, but if
you choose not to join the guilds already established--yeah, the
Guild of Paladins or Warriors' Guilds... get a band of players
together and create your own! LegendMUD allows player housing and
player guilds!
What are you waiting for?! Come explore Ancient Greece or serve Robin
Hood's head on platter to Guy Gisborne! Climb Mount Kilamanjaro or
form a guild of pirates who hold claim to the hide tides of the South
Seas. All three eras of our history have been written and await your
travels. So come! Relive our ancient history and live the legend
through LegendMUD!

I also consider myself a devoted mud player. I have tried almost
200 different mud's since 1998 and out of all of them, I think that
Legend is the best. Interesting and entertaining theme, medium sized
world, and a large population, make legend #1 in my book.

I've been playing legend for a quite a while now, off and
on such and such. My friend got me started on it and well,
it's by far better than any game you could buy in a store
or even possibly create on your own. There are few other
games that can even compete with the level of detail and
interaction the legend is capable of... and the theme of
the story setting allows the game to expand to whatever it
needs. All i have to say to the staff of legendmud and to
all the people reading this is WOW!
