House rules
Short short version:
1) Behave like an adult. Whiny brats tend to explode.
2) The DMs are not babysitters
3) Do not abuse shout and DM channels
4) Okay, ready for the most important rule of all? It is very simple. Have fun. That is the whole point of a game isn't it?
Will you stand on the Acropolis of an embattled Athens? Will you walk the dark forests of Germania? Will you battle up the slopes of Mt. Vesuvius or down into the depths of Lost Atlantis? Will you triumph in the deserts of Egypt or will the Valkerie of Midgardr carry your broken body to the halls of the dead? These areas and more are all underway in the ongoing PW Realms of Mythology. Mythos is a land rich with extensive custom content where heroes and legends walk. Adventure awaits you, will you step through the Gate and answer the call?
Mythos is a non-uber, RP (RP is encouraged and rewarded, but not required) PW server for mature players.
One of the main goals of the server is to have each player class be unique and valuable. This in turn, provides a wide range of challenges that no single character can face alone. If you enjoy mindless hack 'n slash, Mythos is NOT the server for you!
Several years in the making, Mythos boasts all custom created maps (130+) and quests (55+) that are unique to the server. There is also a wide selection of custom equipment (900+).
Some popular features to the server include:
- NEW: OnPlayerChat commands to make your familiar, animal companion and summoned creature speak
- Bonus XP for hunting in groups
- Low magic item properties (+3 is the most sold in stores, up to +5 for quest rewards or boss monster drops)
- Bonus XP for some (not all) successful skill and spell use
- Class and level based shopping
- Persistent player location, hit points, spell use, etc. saved across relogs
- Player crafting of hak based armors, shields and weapons
- Silent save of player files every couple of minutes
- Custom quest system with persistent journals
- Optional auto loot and loot notification systems
- Available player housing
- Available player run guilds
- Trash cans with rewards for using them
- Clean up script (non-heartbeat)
- Numerous convenience widgets like auto follow, afk, emotes, and save player file
- Persistent bank accounts
- Spell share with familiars
- Drop and carry furniture
- Traveling shop, stock up any where, any time
- Newbie donation chest that can receive items from anywhere in game
- Selection of food and drink (for fun not a rest requirement)
- Player added content is encouraged
- Dedicated linux server machine
Custom hak packs are required (196 Mb). Link to the haks is provided below.
As Mythos pre-dates the CEP, that hak system is not needed to play on the server. If you already have the CEP installed, you do not need to change that installation. Our haks are completely separate. Having both systems installed on your computer, provided you have the storage space, will not interfere with each other.
The haks contain both content from the vault and those that we have created. We realize the haks are a large download, but it is hard to do mythology on the models provided with the game. What would Greece be without cyclops, centaurs, columned buildings, and the Pegasus?
The base torso and pelvis models have been replaced with full nudity models. There is adult content included on the server. HOWEVER Mythos is not a socials server. If all you want is cyber, Mythos is NOT the server for you! Due to this adult content, there are no minors allowed on the server.
The server is listed in the Role Play section.
Server Name: Realms of Mythology
Module Name: realms_of_mythology-XXX
Direct Connect: 71.39.93.235:5121
The XXX in the module name denotes the version number for the module file. This is an easy way to tell if the server has been upgraded.
