Duris: Land of BloodLust

[UPDATE - Aug 20, 2014] We are wiping players/equipment/etc on Sept 12th, 2014. This is a great time for new players, as everyone will be starting at level one, lots of people will be around to group with and level with, and everyone has an equal opportunity to achieve greatness!

Duris is one of the most popular race war based pkill muds of all time, and has been around since the 90s. The mud is VERY customized and is NOT for the faint of heart. With an overhead graphical map system, and over 150 000 rooms, Duris can take months if not years to totally explore. After almost 20 years of growth, there is a _lot_ for new players to learn, some of which comes easy, and some of which can take months or even years to master.

Duris is a land of constant war. The opposing factions of good and evil are in a non-stop state of battle for control of outposts, guildhalls and territory.

The greatest PVP mud in existence is dying. But… admidst the ashes, life stirs. As the phoenix rises to be reborn, so does the land of bloodlust. Come September 12, YOU can be a part of the resurrection.

Are you up for the Duris experience?
