Authors

Midgaard is an emulation of old-school MUD Worlds from the 1990s. It runs on the TriadCity platform; but much of the World which players interact with was contributed back in the day by multiple authors at multiple times for multiple MUDs. This table lists the Zones available in our version of Midgaard, and their authors. Players may additionally use the 'Author' command in-game to learn the author of their current Zone. Many Zones have detailed explanatory signs inside their entrance Rooms; try typing 'look credits' or 'look info' to find out.

Most of these zones are available online, where their authors have generously offered them to the world. We've altered them to suit our purposes, for example by fixing typos and spelling mistakes, adding linking rooms, and in some instances re-writing them from the ground up. If you're the author of any of these and you're uncomfortable with us using your work, please write to support@smartMonsters.com and we'll either convince you we're cool or we'll stop using it. We really are cool, though. We derive zero income from Midgaard, in fact it costs us to keep the lights on. We do it for love of the medium, and to preserve something of its creative history.
