Avatar MUD Information

I started AVATAR on 07/28/2006 with my first alt, Morlicar. As such, I'm still a newbie and probably will be for a while. I tend to solo, which is slower than teaming up with others to form parties (I have grouped a few times). Even so, I feel I can explore at my slow pace when by myself, which I feel I cannot do when grouped (don't want to bore my allies...)

My Alts:

  • Morlicar, human, monk, lowmort
    My first character and most often played. He's died many, many times! His deaths are why I may never get to be a hero :-).
  • Malikie, centaur, cleric, lowmort
  • Sliss, lizardman, warrior, lowmort
  • Edrahel, elf, rouge, lowmort
    The only alt who hasn't died. Yet.
  • Silkarian, elf, mage, lowmort
