*You can see only the darkness, but sense a huge being of immense power in the shadows. Energy and fear radiate from it.*
"Heed my words adventurer! Make no mistake. It is for now, in my best interest to teach you of our world of Mellus so that you may become rich, powerful and famous. For when we meet again, I will crush you like all the others before and take all that you have"
"I am Illiadians, one of a very few giant sorcerors of such power none but the dragons can stand against us! Many names I have had, Magnus the Cruel, Rombar of the Sailing Fire, Whorra advisor to the Emperor, and more."
"Now is the time for heros, villians, and adventurers! Mellus is a world ready to be shaped, raised, built, conquerored and remade! With the fall of the Katarious Empire, new kingdoms will arise, new magic discovered, ancient treasures unearthed, and rewards unheardof for the bold and the brave!"
"What is the world of Mellus you ask?"
"Mellus is a world unlike any other, for it is a globe so immense that entire lands have evolved entirely independant of each other. Exotic and magnifician civilizations grew and florished with little or no contact between each other. Scores of different races of beings inhabit this vast world all growing, fighting, living and loving,...until the horrid and malicious Katarious spider-people rose to power."
"The Katarious nation was a collection of spider like races (Spider Deamon, Giant Spider, Formian, Drider, and many lessor types) whose viciousness, intelligents, magic and brute strength allowed them to form the Empire of Katar and conquer many lands."
"Listen adventurer, as I tell you of the StormNexus"
"In the Katar capital of Sar Sc�th there existed a power magical portal, the StormNexus. This device permitted the instant transport to and from the many lands of Mellus. The Katarious armies used this device to keep its strangle hold on almost all the other races and cultures of its empire. For thousands of years the Nexus was the true source of the Katarious Empire's power."
"Over time, the lords of the Katarious had few opponents to challenge them. Greed and a never-ending thirst for power led them to fight amongst themselves. The royal houses began in earnest to destroy each other, each thinking that they would emerge as emperor.
When the time was right, my brothers and I (the illiadians) began to trick their Royal Katarious masters into dangerous conflict between each other. Soon the we began to sow the seeds of rebellion amongst the slave races.
It took over 400 years for enough decay to happen. In the end, it was the orcish hordes (Goblin, Orc, Hobgoblin, Bugbear,Orge) that finally rebelled outright. Retribution was swift, but the damage was enough to allow many other races to rebel.
It is the year 2929. The empire crumbled into fragments only 110 years ago. Mellus is a world of unrest, danger, hatred and opportunity for the bold, the noble, or the greedy. WIth the Empire is in tatters, new lands are emerging, with new heros, new wonders, undiscovered races and much more.
Go then, fare well, fight hard, win, win, win! For ultimately what you earn, I will take!"

Description
StormNexus is guided by DM Storm and his DM Team. "On StormNexus, we use guidelines, not rules. We�re not lawyers, and we don�t believe you need a law degree to roleplay. This server is concerned about players having fun and acting in good spirit. We look for players with good intentions, who make the world fun for all, and that�s about it. There are really no hard and fast rules."
The game Features:
* Emote: No need for an emote want in your inventory, just use the menu. This also eliminates the annoying �holding hands out� animation you may have seen elsewhere.
* Check your bank balance: Why waste time walking?
* Toggle Party Loot Notification: Afraid you�re with a ninja-looter? Turn on loot notification, and find out.
* Craft item appearances: Pimp your character!
* Save your character: No longer any need to log out, just click once, and be done with it.
* De-level: Scew up your build, or just bored? Click the menu. Watch out, though�it won�t re-level you.
* Alingment: On StormNexus, character alignments are just descriptions of actions.
* Classes: Pure class benefits, Classes Enhancements.
* Spells: On StormNexus, we have generally moved to reward high Caster-levels, and ensure every spell has a chance of success and failure. A complete outline follows.
* Summons: All Monster Summons have been enhance to fit our world! We are focused on making summoning more fun, and more varied. We give each summon a unique range of skills so each is valuable.
* PvP: Player versus Player (PvP) is a part of the fun here, and is welcomed under some conditions.
* Death: Wait to be raised by allies: If you are raised by allies, you may continue fighting.
-Allow enemies to raise you: If you give an enemy permission to raise you, you must do as they say. If you are told to leave, you must leave. Enemies must have your permission to raise you. If you are raised without permission, you may treat it as if you had been raised by an ally.
-Respawn: respawning means you have suffered a grave wound, and barely escaped death. You may not return to the same battle after respawning. Should the battle move on to another area at least 4 screens away, it is considered a new encounter, and you may return.
* Races: The game supports a wide range or races from thw world. You can hcange races at will at the start of the game. Choose which ever fits your playing style.

I dont get it. This is one of the most popular servers according to easily verified stats on GameSpy. It is also my PW of choice after having played on over a dozen RP servers. And yet it has only been voted for once.
But then, I suppose it doesnt matter when at any minute of the day there are between 25 and 60 people online.
