About

    On the weekend of the 22th i am going to try and run the first simple invasion, it is not a halloween one saddly just a simple fun one.
        I am giving this notice to allow 2 weeks notice, i plan to do it around evening of hte 22th, around 6 to 8 est give or take, subject to change at any time.
        Now this is a simple one just to test out the invasion systems and to give you ll some fun, it will be fake death.

2011-10-17:
    A change has been made to bags in order to better balance gameplay. Mages can create 3 bags total and their capacity depends on the conjuring skill of the mage. 
        Please see an imm for more information.

    Well teh invasion came, we had a few bumps in the road but it all seems to go well, hofully this test will allow us to tweak and improve the game

2011-12-17:
    An update to heat/cold damage was applyed to better balance, if you visit a cold area it may do more damage now.
    Issues with climb have been fixed, they now work correctly
    Some players with satyr as a race had wrong language, login should now correct it.

2011-12-21:
    Drowing, sufficated, tempature damage (cold/heat in rooms), minor direct poison damages have been synced to healing
        this allows us ot better balanace them, along with the sync the damages #s where lowed a little to offset the sync

To connect to the MUD you need a telnet client or use the web client. Connect to shadowmud.org on port 1030. The default windows/linux client gets old quick and you might find life more comfortable with a proper MUD client such as Icewolfz's client or one of the clients listed at mudconnect.
