Kallisti has the features you expect in an evolved Dikumud, like automated quests, pets to assist with fighting, and a PvP arena. And there are others you might not expect. The mud is remarkably transparent, allowing players simply to `examine’ weapons and gear in order to gain `identify’ information. And Kalli isn’t so single-mindedly devoted to levelling, since it is equally important to enhance the stats you rolled at character creation, by visiting a Meta Shop and buying additional strength, constitution, intelligence, wisdom, dexterity, charisma, luck, hitpoints, mana, and stamina. Levelling and enhancement of stats takes time, xp, and coin, but the improvements in your character are gratifying. An array of interesting skills gradually opens up, even for a barbarian like me who relies mainly on strength and constitution. By selecting skills you mould your character. Mine for example depends on `deathstroke’, for dealing damage, and `grapple’, a skill that puts a foe to sleep. I’ve also started a necromancer, which relies on orchestrating minions to make up for its poor strength and constitution. I’ve been told that this is a very good class for solo players. There are many such classes to choose from, and many races as well.
