A World Assunder

In the beginning there were only humans, but magic twitsted reality and genetics like a nuclear melt down. As the world is explored, new races will be discovered. If you have a good idea for a race, submit to Atlanta_Nich@hotmail.com with AWA in the subject.

In addition to the standard humans, there are other races:

Other races may  be added to a World Assunder over time as the result of contests, or as a reward for a service rendered to the mud. 
When we are considering adding a new race, we will mention that on the main page.

A World Assunder is a MUD written in Java basedonan idea contrived by Atlanta Apostol and Jeffrey Bester (co-coders andImplementors).  This is their code base.  It is opensource.  Blah blah blah.
