I agree with your enthusiasm for this mud!
I've been playing muds off and on since the 1990's. Over time, I
have come to appreciate muds that are Smaug code based.
6 Dragons has become my new home for a number of reasons. First,
since it is Smaug-based, it is in my preferred format. But it is
highly modified, so it does not have a stock feel at all.
It has a great look and feel to it. Its ANSI colors are well thought
out and easy on the eyes.
It has an excellent, short newbie introduction, which I actually
enjoyed doing. The map system is great, and I find it easy to navigate
around the world.
Too, I have long had a preference for playing non-human characters
(wolves, cougars, dragons, etc.). 6 Dragons allows for the player to
create a dragon character in one of 5 types, each with different
skills and spells.
There is more than playing a dragon, of course. The available races
are rather extensive, including pixies, shades, vampires, mindflayers
and centaurs, in addition to the usual elves, dwarves, etc.
A player can choose from a number of different classes. One may also
choose to multi-class (up to 3 classes). There are professions one may
choose to do as well.
Last but definitely not least, there is an active, friendly player
base. The other players are what really keep me coming back!
The staff is active and helpful.
There have been muds that I have found downright unfriendly to a
woman player. But 6 Dragons is great, welcoming, and a place I felt
right at home in from the first day I arrived.
It has only gotten better the more I've come to know it and the
other players.
