So I've been playing Xaos, and man, I think it kicks ass.
It's the first Multi-User Dungeon I've seen that uses MUD mechanics, but it is purely roleplay oriented.
Here's my character, originally from the days when I was writing Andoria back in 2004. This is a rough draft, so bear with me:
Kyne Wintermourne, info and backstory.
Born to House Wintermourne of Gharadmore Province in the land of Andoria, III 1240 (the twelve hundred fortieth year of the Third Age), Kyne was a nobleman and chancellor of properties. When he was eighteen years old, Kyne fell into a tryst with Lady Illewyn Firebrand of Westmarch.
When he was twenty, Lady Illewyn posed a challenge to test his love for her, involving a soul-binding contract and a test known only by the phrase 'to dance the frosts'. As part of the test, Kyne was faced with a decision: Bind himself to her or remain with his family, whom he loved dearly.
He chose to remain in Gharadmore. The resulting cataclysm between them shattered her spirit, and left him scarred. In the resulting turmoil he was politically exiled from his homeland as well as Westmarch, but not stripped of his name. In acquiescence, he chose to become a wanderer, hoping to redeem himself in some way by aiding others in his travels.
Kyne’s disposition toward others is polite, though he never directly or outwardly announces his heritage. In secret, however, he is tormented by the last words Illewyn Firebrand spoke to him when she cast him away: “You’ve destroyed me, Kyne. Let that weigh like iron on your conscience, that it should drag you down into the Pit where you belong.”
