The five realms
Aurin, Olympus, Morrigan, Iasos and the Underworld each belong to one of the Five gods. Their pages describe the realms and which areas are open to play.
What waits in the world
What you can do in Rogue
Adventure with a party, run a shop, tend a farm or practise a craft. Clans and faiths provide other ways to meet people and take part in the world.
Five religions
Join a faith, make offerings and speak on its channel. Religious rank and duties depend on the character’s class.
Player-run clans
Found a clan, name its ten ranks and set what each may do. Fill the treasury, level it up, and raise a clan abode for your members.
Player shops & merchants
Merchants set up stalls, stock and price their own goods, run live auctions, and write contracts, loans and letters of credit.
Housing
Move into a neighbourhood home or have a mansion built, from Cottage to Palace. Design rooms, decorate them, and fill vaults and forges.
Farms
Keep livestock for eggs, milk, wool and honey, plant and harvest the fields, and sell what your land produces.
Pets
Keep animals ranging from songbirds to griffins. Pets need feeding, grooming and training; a pet that dies cannot be brought back.
Sailing & pirates
Buy a ship, steer across the sea and operate its guns. Pirate crews can attack and board; different ammunition serves different purposes.
Over 800 skills
Guild training offers combat skills, spells and passives. Races have additional abilities of their own.
Advanced combat
Choose fighting styles and coordinate attacks with a party. Conditions can interact: fire melts ice, while blunt attacks can shatter a frozen target.
Dungeons & bosses
Explore sewers, catacombs, mines and haunted manors. Named bosses offer first-kill rewards in normal mode; hard mode excludes those rewards.
Rooms and regions
Travel through towns, farmland, forests and coastal waters, with dungeons and quests along the routes.
Browser and MUD clients
Play in the browser with maps, panels and a skillbar, or connect from Mudlet or any classic client.
The Reputation Engine

Quests, trade, combat and other recorded deeds affect six reputation measures. These influence prices, encounters and the watch; cities also keep their own Trust and Scrutiny.
- Presence
- Traceability
- Credibility
- Threat Index
- Scrutiny Load
- Hardiness
