This central prairie between Caradlach Woods, Ammortous, Eburacon, the Shire, the Emerald Forest and Iolanthe's Woodland has been lovingly re-landscaped by Morrn into a land of natural beauty.

Features
Rehobaom's Legacy is a ten year old mud, run by artist Gabrielle Taylor (yes, that Taylor), and physicist Tomohiko Tanabe. Russ Taylor (yes, that other Taylor) continues to loiter and hit on the girls. It may or may not be art. It is state-of-the-art Rom 4.1, aka Athen 1.2.
It has:
- a fire staff is
- a light source
- a staff of fireballs
- AND a weapon, ALL IN ONE ITEM!
- multi-location wear:
- a suit covers your whole body
- a cestus armors your hand and forearm, AND is a weapon
- a cloak covers your shoulders and back
- hit locations: being hit in the neck hurts!
- mobs don't have unlimited mana - just like you
- mobs heal and spell themselves up - just like you
- the healer knows what's wrong with you, and casts what you need!
- found your own guild, build your own house
- death spells and vorpal swords
- forge your own armor, sew your own clothes, concoct your own pills
- illusory servants and undead creation spells
- (hundreds of spells, really)
- seven gods; all gods have custom classes
- easily find common areas by tracking landmarks
- huge, original, detailed main city with over a hundred shops
- don't want to PK? stay in the biggest dimension, Arethuse
- want to player kill? the dimension of Munesol allows unrestricted murder
- rain leaves puddles; snow leaves snowdrifts
- tan corpses into equipment or butcher them for food
- "Landmarks" allow new players to easily track newbie areas and major cities
Rehobaom is beautifully written, with details and backstory that have evolved over the past decade. With the new, newbie friendly classes and landmarks, there's never been a better time to try us out.
About
Rehobaom's Legacy (based on Tesseract) is one of three muds based on the private Rom 4 sourcebase. It is run by Gabrielle Taylor (Antoinette/Satin) and coded by Tomohiko Tanabe (Jequel). Code contributions by Garry Turkington (Corloth/Banton), Shad Muegge (Orald), and, of course, the original (and still often resident) Russ Taylor (Alander).
