greenstormSomeone wanted to know where I do my roleplay (was this you, Ziggy?)
There are two places. Both reside at http://jointhesaga.com .
Otherspace is a space-opera-themed MUSH, relatively code-lite, with big staff-driven story arcs. With a whole bunch of planets and races, it's still relatively character-driven (a must for anything I play). Otherspace is set in a very active universe; that is, there's always a lot going on in the world for your char to react to. It's often a little over-the-top (log on and ask about Nemoni Starship Hats, for instance) .
Chiaroscuro is a relatively low-magic fantasy world wrought in shades of grey. Although the world is relatively active and plots are run, they take a backseat to the interpersonal/in-character-social goings-on between players. There are no good guys or bad guys here, no obviously right or wrong courses of action, etc. Chia has a lot more heavy code-- crafting system, etc --instead of the more freeform Otherspace.
Both MUSHes are extremely RP-heavy, in the sense that I didn't roll my first 'dice' there for at least six months after beginning play. Although they're very 'literate', relying on your written word for almost 100% of action and interaction, the writing (pose length) is done in relatively short chunks. The mechanism for roleplay is, basically, that people describe their character's actions in alternating blocks of text, and with a specific set of guidelines to avoid stepping on people's toes, for those of you who've never been on a MUSH. Both have extensive chargen, with optional biographies, and pretty kickass wikis linked from the page.
I'm Greenstorm and Volskywalker there, as staff, plus I've got characters that I play.
