The Lost and Found of Roleplayers' Journal

I was the last Cassandra Cain/Batgirl on the Brave and the Bold mud (not to be confused with the television program. Miss ya'll. Wish we could play again.

Hey all,

Reading the posts in this community has sure been a trip down memory lane! When I think about how many nights I used on this hobby (and I'm European, so I do mean nights in the literal sense of the word), I think I know who I didn't get a better exam in college. :)

I exclusively played at superhero themed MUX'es, starting around 1997. And I'm still around, on-off... I guess that's one hobby I'll never quite let go of. :) The dynamics of tex-based RPG is something I still haven't stumbled upon in any other types of RPG.

My track record (in alphabetical order)
CrisisMUX (CMX): Guy Gardner (GL), Owner
DC Legends (DCL): Superman, Speedy, Staff, Guy Gardner (GL)
DCU MUSH: Warrior
Heroes & Villains (H&V): Guy Gardner, (GL) Superman, Staff
JLU MUX: Elongated Man, Baron Blitzkrieg
Marvel X-Treme (MXT): Doc Samson, Moon Knight
MetaMUX (MMX): Guy Gardner (GL), Ursa Major
Millenium Heroes MUX (MHMX): Warrior (Guy Gardner), -Captain Marvel-, Staff
Super-MUX: Warrior, (Guy Gardner) Staff (NOTE: Was revamped and eventually became MHMX)
Zero Hour MUX: Blue Beetle, Warrior (Guy Gardner)

And there are still games out there! I'm currently making a comeback in a game that looks promising, Comic Adventures MUX. A few years ago, I played on a game called JLU MUX, very nice place, but unfortunately, it's becomes somewhat of a ghost town. I guess that's how it goes.

I wonder if there are any of my old friends who'll read this. I'm particularly thinking of Cabbit (you know who you are), Wally from H&V, (different) Wally from DCL/Cyclops from MHMX, Jesse Quick from H&V, Diana from H&V, Meggan from H&V, Harley from MHMX adn finally Naomi form H&V. Feel free to drop a note, also drop me a not if you played at one of these games and interacted with me or just remember me fom the good, old days.

I saw this mentioned on Gateway. I haven't been MU*ing much at all lately, but I might have a little more time soon.

Anyway, I was Amy/Chris/Quintus on Devilshire. Anyone else from Devilshire out there?

It was a fun place. I'd like to play a similar setting sometime: a modern setting with monsters and magic mixed casually in, without too much seriousness. I found myself thinking today that I never really played Amy properly. I generally felt like I was surrounded by better roleplayers over there, which on balance is a good thing.

Or anyone who is looking for some fairly straight-forward sci-fi setting RP - I've created a new game that's now in its second month that's in the same "canon" as Wing Commander: Red Horizon, a quite popular MUSH that closed in 2002.

http://www.wcmush.com/ is the website and wcmush.com 2199 is the address - whether you're a WC:RH vet or not, if you're interested in sci-fi, we'd love to see you and tell you more about our game. :)

Wow, finding this group rather late...think most people have probably stopped checking MU*s or LJ by now, but here goes a shot in the dark to hopefully find old friends and to test how much I've forgotten:

Full Circle MUX:

JuJuBees -- Insane sleep deprived staffer/coder.
Reinholt (Travis Reinholt) -- Chemist / martial artist / mage
Tranz (Matthias Longwood) -- slacker / hacker / trouble magnet.

AtlanticCity By Night:

Puck (Briefly helped with server and code issues and maybe Changeling at startup).

DC By Night: Not sure if this was the right name honestly...

Atari: Mortal+ staffer
Trent: demon tainted rogue ghoul

-- Also played a revised Trent on another MUX by Pioughd and Saffron
that used rules that was based more off LARP rules than 2nd ed WoD.

Ashes to Ashes MUX

Ruford -- Early staff help...Think it was several months after I was
gone that the place re-opened elsewhere.

DevilShire MUX:

Joe (Joe Marino aka Joe the Plumber) -- ever so briefly...

Treyvan:

Torg
...and I actually forget my codestaff name from there, but any Treyvan
coders feel free to say hi :)...

Tenebrae:

Roland
Ionus

Nails MUCK:

Krenki

I was a die hard mush addict between 1996 and 2002, when I finally hung up my mush hat for good.

I almost exclusively played Star Wars mushes, though I had toons on many, many others - none received the playtime afforded my SW characters.

Nikto, spacer/trader, and proud owner of the YT-1300s Steel Shamrock and Void Blur. I still name ships Void Blur in any gaming opportunities that allow it. =)

Silvin, gun for hire, worked for the long lived criminal syndicate The Company.

Nikto Talos, Rebel admiral, one time commander of the Viceroy Fleet, a pirate/privateer flotilla.

Khalim, Dark Jedi apprentice to Emperor Palpatine, player feature character for a few years.

I was also Space Wiz for like 3 days at once point. I don't even remember how I got the job. "Just come do it, no coding experience necessary, you just make ships for people!" It didn't quite work that way. =)

SW Uprising 1999-various ups and downs, now under different ownership

I was Xenon, head builder and co-founder of Star Wars: Uprising. A fellow SW2 player (Tarison) and I broke out on our own and managed a moderate level of success before the struggles of populating a mush in the post golden age era just got to be too much. Still, SWU is among the highlights of my mush experience.

There's lots more, though names escape me. I remember Star Wars Legacy (I believe it was, perhaps Legacies) to have an exceptionally talented group of roleplayers, and remember being shocked when it suddenly closed down.

Star Wars: Beyond Chaos back in 1996 was one of the most fun, and at the same time most dysfunctional SW mushes I remember playing. I was particularly sad when that one went under. So much happened there.

Now I'm feeling all nostalgic, I guess there's a couple hours of googling ahead of me.

Hey all!

After a long break from roleplaying, I've been looking back with a lot of fondness for the games I played and the people I played them with, and I'm wondering...well, where'd they all go?! I wanna get back in touch, and tell some amazing stories again, yeah?

I played for a year-ish on Banyan Tree and its short-lived successor Chatham County as Eddie and Lucas Laramie, vampire punks who managed to piss off just about everybody, endear themselves to a special few, and (in Eddie's case anyway) blow shit up. I miss the whole crew, and I don't think I ever managed to find any of you again!

I also (briefly) played Geoffrey on Devilshire, a painfully awkward half-demon with an unfortunate love for Aquaman and scaring the shit out of beachgoers. I made a few good friends here in the OOC lounge, but Devilshire is gone without a trace! Did I miss something?

If you remember me, drop me a line! If you're playing somewhere-- or at all interested in starting something non-WoD up-- let me know! I desperately miss the snark and the zany supernatural hijinks, f'r realz.

I was chatting with someone and had some nostalgia for old MU*'s come up and would love to reconnect with some of the players there!

I played:

Aether I
Niamh
Octavian
Fox
Skyfire

Aether II
Varad-Niamh
Evander
Swift
Ahanu

Hogwarts Express
Percy Sullivan -- If anyone knows how to get in touch with Hiroshi-player, I would be forever grateful!

Maddock MUX
St. John -- Particularly looking for Mariah-player
Kennet
Ghost Hawk

TwoMoons
Suntop
DarkSun

Those are the big ones that I can remember. There were a bunch of X-Men/DC-flavored games where I played Nightcrawler, Angel (Warren), Havok, Forge, Green Arrow, Nightwing, Daredevil...

Hi everyone. I've just been hit by a severe bout of M*ing nostalgia, and thought I would post on the off-chance that I might find people I used to play with. I was active in World of Time-theme games, as well as Aether MUSH (among others), from about 1996 to 2002ish. My most RPd characters:

AngrealMOO:
Obri (Aes Sedai)
Shavran
Gabriel (Warder)
many others of no real note.

Aether MUSH:
Israfel (Empyrian; a sickly layabout for years, then briefly a member of the Praetorian guard, until Aether died.)
Falling-Leaf
Zaïd (Agni-Haidar merchant)

Yup. I've been MU*ing in some form for years, I realize.

Games I've played on, and this is not an exhaustive list:

ATS TrekMUSH (Penta)
Battletech 3056 MUSE and plenty of other BTech sites since (John Penta)
Battlestar MUSH (Colonial DB and post-original-series DB): Penta, Jupiter
SW1 MUSH: Penta (or possibly John Penta) (was briefly faction head of the Griffons)
Wing Commander: Red Horizons MUSH and its follow-ons: John Penta

Starting to see a theme?:P

Other games I remember playing on (all as Penta or some variation, I was unoriginal!):
Highseas MUX
Shadowrun Seattle MUSH/MUX

Probably other games too, but I've been on so many I've lost count.

Currently, I'm Nick (previously...Penta) on Ansible MOO, where I've played since 2005.

I really grew up on MU*s, and as I crawl towards 30, it'd be fun to find people who remember me and catch up.

Dunno if anyone's still watching this, but I found some old scene logs today and am overcome with nostalgia. So here's a list of the characters and places I can remember.

City of Darkness:
Angelique (in 1994) - on the off-chance that Tor-Michael's player is out there...

The Dreaming 2:
Rhiannon - The stereotype I didn't realize was a stereotype at the time: Irish Catholic runaway satyr teenager
Angelique - Mortal

Emerald Dreams:
Jake/Joanna - Selkie with more perils than Pauline
Rowan - Mortal
Val - Troll
Carrie - Gwydion Sidhe
Goldberry - Changeling admin

Something Wicked This Way Comes:
Jake - Moved to Santa Barbara after a tragedy
Marisol - Ailil Sidhe posing as Fiona
Rowan - Mortal, later Toreador

There are probably lots others--I was the queen of alts for a time.

Well it has been quite a long time. I was re-reading the books recently and I still to this day use the name Cyrom in various places on the internet, but I decided to search nostalgically for Angreal Moo.

Angreal MOO I and II: Jerim and Cyrom were the main two. There were a couple others.

There were other Mu* But I mostly used these names there as well.

On a trip down memory lane, I was drawing an old character of mine. Idly, I was considering some of the players with whom I interacted regularly. That led me here. I thought I'd shout out to anyone who might remember.

Now let's see how good my memory is! This is by no means a complete list, but these are some that stand out.

The Dreaming MUSH
Rheem, Cherrie Bahm, Mins, Chevesche, Sunny, Gianni

Emerald Dreams
Dindanni, Hecate

Twin Cities by Teatime
Rene, Gianni(?) he had a dog named Spooge, I recall

Black Gate MUX
Jean, Fou Lu, Ranma, Yoh, Sakura, Anko

Damn Ninja MUX
Kiba, Tsunade, Natsumi

Bleached MUX
Orihime, Akon

Final Fantasy MUX
Mikoto, Brahne, Pacce (all years ago, left for a few years)

Currently I play on Final Fantasy MUX as Zidane, Blaze, and Vossler. I dabble over on Wasteland MUX with Deis. So, if anyone recognizes these names, hi! I'm still alive and kicking. I hope you're doing well.

I've been MU*ing for more than 15 years and this is by no means a complete list.

Qwest / Delusions / Legacy - as Evergreen

AuroraMUSH / MUSH - as Aphrael, I've also been admin on several games under that name

SW1 (StarWars) - Briale, Rhannak -- I can put you in contact with Kiare/Jeymian and I also know Webb

CrystalDreams - Kiare, Moira, Darby, Akina, Caliph -- can put you in touch with Elysiana

I was Nora on TheDreaming MUSH

and even longer ago than that,

Charlotte on Full Circle, it was a MUSH set in Florida.

Clem?

What to say..? I started MU*ing years back, originally on SW2: A New Threat. From there I moved to SW: Uprising, X-Men: End Times, X-Men: Tomorrow People, and NYCX. Eventually I got distracted by World of Warcraft, and after giving that up went back to MU*ing, and ended up playing on SW: New Worlds (which is in the process of being shut down and re-started as a new SW theme).

My past characters:
SW2: Lorn
SWU: Dassan
XET: Travis, Finn
XTP: Jamie
NYCX: Jamie

If there is anyone out there from XET or NYCX who might be interested in a project similar to those games, drop me a line.

Gateway - The MU* Community (formerly OGR) has an "MIA: Seeking Friends". Stop on by telnet://connect.mu-gateway.net:6700 or our website http://www.mu-gateway.net and make a post to see if you can find your friend.

Alright, let's see what I can do here. I've been playing since 2004, I guess, and bounce around quite a bit, so I'm sure there are characters I'm forgetting about...

Shadowrun: Denver: Ashling, Mayre, Typhoon, Nick One-Eye, Sammy Glitch, Howl, Keasbey, and I staffed for a hot second as Euler. Probably a few others I'm forgetting.
Hogwarts Express: Michel, Starling, Howl, Sam, and Dominic. Oh, jeez, I'm definitely forgetting some...
Ark of Fools: Chr'it'ik and Rides in Rain.
Red Tide: Zhant!
The all-too short lived Claremont Academy: Rainer
I think it was called AxisMUSH: Smoke and a young woman whose name I can't quite recall.
Some Firefly MU* or another: Petra.
Far too many to mention at Shangrila.
And probably more besides those.

Looking for anyone I may have played with at SR:D, HE, or elsewhere, but especially Tambrey from HE, any of the Judii from SR:D, and the fantastic Scarecrow from Axis. Contact me at john.ikard@gmail.com, or Textchan on AIM.

CrystalMUSH is currently up at crystalmush.mudmagic.com port 6886.

In other news, does anyone know anything about TwoMoonsMUSH?

Granite is back up at the same old place and we're looking for the gang to see if we can pick up pieces and continue doing what we always did. The archive at the website is still up and folks are pawing through it to see where we were when we stopped. The hope is that we will take the chronicle forward and have a howling good time getting our alts into and back out of trouble.

And, we're also interested in folks who can grok our kind of game.
