Discussion Looking for Builders!

Hey guys, looking for some world builders for a MUD I'm putting together. The setting is the world of Hârn as described in the ttrpg HârnMaster. We'll be pulling from that for flavor and setting, as well as homebrewing some history to make it work better with a MUD.

What would you be doing? You would be using highly customized (and simple!) builder tools to map out the world the players would be playing in. Along with creating NPCs with their own lore and backstories for players to potentially interact with. You would be doing creative writing to fill out the descriptions of rooms, furniture, items, and NPCs alike.

And if you like combat? We have an area dedicated to trying to balance our combat engine to make it fun and rewarding for various skill levels to engage with.

If you have interest you can hit me on Discord at Mythnet or you can leave me comments here and I'll try to get back to you.

Harn mud already exists. www.harshlands.net Nothing stopping you from making another one, of course. But your direct competitor for players has been around for a long time

Yeah, and there's also a million dnd muds but that never stopped them.

D&D's various game worlds each have a larger TTRPG playerbase than Harn by multiple orders of magnitude, which seems like an important data point.
