HISTORY OF BATMUD
The world of BatMUD was created on April 14'th, 1990 by Jaf "the Seeker
of Sunshine".
The first mortal to attain wizardhood was called Enrico. He was followed by
Goon, Barsh, Mapmaker, Arakorni and others, and the world began to grow
slowly in size. Arakorni is currently the oldest active wizard and one of
the oldest - if not the oldest - active players.
Approximately after one Bat-year the first three guilds were created by
Jaf, Mjoelner and Goon, these were: the EVIL cult, the Druids guild and
the Paladins guild.
With the creation of the guilds and the continuous arrival of new Wizards,
Jaf could no longer maintain direct supervision of everything, thus the
three first ArchWizards were elected by a vote among the Wizards of BatMUD.
The elected were: Mjoelner, Mapmaker and Rincewind.
The ranks of the ArchWizards were later changed as Rincewind's natural
ability with creation and formation paved his ascendance to Godhood, the
Wizards chosen to fill the ranks of the ArchWizards were Legolas and
Alacrity (since then, the ranks of ArchWizards have changed too many times
for accurate recording).
On approximately the year 8.5 of BatMUD, an EVIL cultist, who would later
prove his abilities in leadership, control and creation and attain a far
higher rank, attained his Wizardhood, he was called Zonni.
Approximately 3.5 Bat-years later, batmud experienced several changes
as Anipa became the supreme creator of BatMUD, as well as its third God.
These changes included the creation of the Fighters guild by Franco, the
modification of the old Paladins guild, as well as the improvement of the
legendary monster known as Tiamat by Zonni and the creation of a new City
by Alacrity and Legolas.
At this point BatMUD started a steady stage of growth, as new mortals
began to arrive by the masses, as well as new Wizards and thus more areas
were added to the world, until the forming of the current BatMUD was begun
approximately one Bat-year later, also after the acceptance of Extechop
among the ranks of the Gods, making him the fourth and so far last God of
BatMUD.
The old EVIL cult was disbanded, as several new guilds were created, and
mortals were defined by various races, with several different abilities.
The current BatMUD was marked by the creation of new and modification of
the old guilds and races, as well as the demolishment of the City and the
creation of the new City, on about year 39 Since the Creation of BatMUD,
about year 31 Since the Arrival of Zonni, or year 27 Since the New Order -
(the coming of Anipa.)
