Introduction

Welcome to Dark Wizardry Documentation

Welcome to the official documentation for Dark Wizardry—an awesome medieval-style MUD that offers a rich gaming experience with multi-classing, optional player killing, clans, remorting, and tons of custom content.

Dark Wizardry is a true multi-class MUD, allowing you to level in all five main classes—Warrior, Thief, Mage, Psionic, and Cleric—simultaneously. As you progress through the game, you also have the opportunity to specialize in extra-classes such as the backstabbing Assassin, undead-conjuring Necromancer, peaceful earth-loving Druid, and many more. This multi-classing system lets you tailor your character to your unique play style.

Explore a Vast, Custom World

  • 100+ Custom Areas: Say goodbye to generic stock zones. Explore an enormous world filled with custom-made zones, intriguing quests, and hidden treasures.
  • Remorting & Races: Remort as one of 45 unique races (with more on the way) to unlock additional character levels, new areas, and specialized equipment.
  • Engaging Quests: Enjoy both automatically generated and meticulously designed quests that ensure long-term playability.
  • Clan Building: Create and lead your own clan, attract members, and even wage friendly wars—though these days we tend to keep things peaceful.
