Feel free to jump straight into the game using the "Login" link above, or explore the other information available here.

Banished Lands is based on DentinMud code, which plays much like Diku. Banished Lands was started as an off shoot of Alter Aeon sometime in the hazy year of 1995. Much like most muds Banished began life with a medevil D&D type theme, but then Wyvren our creator got bored and began to mix more sci-fi and fantasy into the game. Her eventual goal is to have a Babylon 5 meets H.P. Lovecraft inspired world of horror and delight.

• Custom Code Base:

  Banished Lands, uses a custom source code for the mud. (in other words no other mud runs quite like it). Banished operates running on DentinMud 2.04, taking updates from the originator of the code (Dentin) and as well as additions of our own.

Gods or Immortals are the ladies and fellows that donate much of their time to keeping the mud functional. They add new features to the mud, build areas for players to explore, and keep the mud running smoothly. Here are a few words about the people running the show, with links to their welcome pages, and email contacts.

Players, sometimes called mortals, are the reason it all happens. Many of our players have been around for 3 years now! Here is a rather miscilanious collection of information, and links to a few of our player's home pages. To add your's to the list just email the MUD ADMIN with the URL.

A list of our current areas, a little sneak preview of areas coming up, and with any luck a few stories and fables about some of the more mysterious places to go.

Summary information about each of the offical clans of Banished Lands. In some cases links to clan web pages, information on elders of clans, and contacts.

A short collection of rules for gods, and players. Also includes the "How do I become a God?" factoid, and definitions of various disiplinary actions.
