Some people, however, prefer to use an alternative client such as Mudlet, MUSHclient, zMUD, or CMUD. Please note other clients may be available to use.
Creating Your First Character
The journey through the Portal of Fate usually takes about half an hour, but for those not accustomed to MUDs it can be rather confusing. You have the option of skipping through the journey using the command END JOURNEY, but for newcomers it is not reccomended. During this journey you will choose your adventurer's age, race, and optionally a home city or commune and guild. Information can be found on each of the guilds, cities and communes can be found in-game in the help files, or you here: Playerorgs
The journey itself is automated, but it is key to note that upon completion you will receive a few items to help you get started: -Members of Warrior guilds receive a claymore, while members of Bard guilds receive an instrument. -Vials (one Health, one Mana, and one Bromides). -A small amount of gold.
You also choose a race for your character (which we call an adventurer) and may optionally choose a home city and guild.

Likely when you first created your character, someone welcomed you via the Collegium Channel (CGT).

To search through general help files, you can always try HELP <keyword> which will bring up any help file in which the key word is. There are also sets of help files for your City (CHELP), your Guild, (GHELP), the Co
