Welcome to Aardwolf!
This is a short help file to introduce you to the MUD and explain where
to go to find out certain things.
Aardwolf was created back in the latter half of 1996 from the efforts of
a dedicated Imm staff. Designed to be everything that a MUD could be,
the current Imm team still works hard to bring as many improvements
to Aardwolf as possible.
Aardwolf is primarily designed to be a very friendly MUD, with the
enjoyment of its players uppermost in the Imms' minds. To this end, you
can help by finding out what the rules are and adhering to them, as
everyone here is expected to treat everyone else with at least some
level of decorum. See <Help Rules>.
If you have never MUD'ed before, there are people here that have
specifically been chosen for their ability to help new players. Known as
Helpers and Advisors, they will interact with you on the newbie channel
(type 'newbie hello!'). In addition, you may find the Help file <Help
Newhelp> of some assistance.
Aardwolf is a restricted Player Kill (PKILL) Mud, and 99% of PKILLING
on Aardwolf is harmless, with no death penalties. See <Help PKILL> and
<Help WarFare> for more details.
All players are kept updated on the events of the MUD via the Board
system, which also allows discussion of ideas, general matters, clan
matters etc. Try <Help Board>.
There are help files for almost all of the skills and spells in the
game, information can be obtained by typing <Help> by itself, or <Help
(subject matter)> or <Help Search (subject matter)> Again, never be
afraid to ask.
Although the world of Aardwolf can be bewildering at first, it is worth
the effort. The Immortals and players here are very proud of this
MUD. If you hang around, you'll see why.
Lastly, to see some of the Updates and changes that have been made, try
<Help History>.
We sincerely hope that you enjoy the time that you spend here, and make
it a place where others can do the same. :)
The Imm Team.
