#achaea — Public Fediverse posts

I started up playing the Iron Realms Entertainment #MUD #Aetolia this long weekend some. I played their #Achaea game for over 20 years.

I had a ton of fun in Achaea, but it was very low roleplay stuff, sure it existed but anyway, the point is ultimately I played the game as a single-player PvE when it was a communal game.

So, this time, I'm primarily joining to play well with others and not have it be a solo game. Excited about communal storytelling and exploring the rich set of lore.

Now that the semester is (almost) over IRL I can get back to what I really want to be doing: Writing a history report on the Black Woe and finishing up the Catalogue of Memories for the Asterian Restoration in #Achaea #MUD xD

So in Achaea today my character got smote by a goddess for questioning her decisions. 😂

Then she revived me and lectured me and the seneschal of our city.

Memory hunting status update, some town chatter, and Fineo's Puppet Show behind the scenes. :P

#Achaea #MUD

An announcement from yesterday in Achaea. (Facepalms.)

#Achaea #MUD

Receiving letters in Achaea is more fun than receiving emails cuz when it's emails you get an annoying notification and probably more work to do or spam and when it's letters in Achaea at least you get some colorful text and there's a chance the letter has a virtual gift and maybe a poem.

#Achaea #MUD

I have never written poetry in my life but #Achaea makes me want to learn more about poetry and I've written some in-character poems! :P

There are news boards in the game, and one is the "poetry" board, so that's where the kind of poetry-based gossip is. ;)

#Achaea #MUD

Moved my Mudlet profile to my Ubuntu-Chromebook, working on my custom GUI stuff.

Made it to the year 1000 AF in #Achaea #MUD

Yes I use #emacs to run shell and telnet from when playing on my phone. 😂

New millennium in #Achaea is coming up in about a day and some hours!!

Uhhh today in #Achaea a God appeared before my character and another youngish person and was like "what are your goals?" and "what's stopping you from achieving them??" And it wasn't even my city's patron God it was the God of Bards and I ain't no bard. :T

Latest little video update, trying to give a bit of a peek into what playing #Achaea #MUD is like! Also scripting with Mudlet's Geyser GUI library!

In #Achaea #MUD we are approaching the year 1000!

(1 IRL hour = 1 Achaea day, so 1 IRL day is ABOUT 1 Achaea month).

> Achaean date 01 Sarapin, year 1000 at midnight would be 3/16/2026 at 7:00

If you want to join before the new millennium! :)

Ehene says in a resonant voice, "I was enemied to Eleusis for subversion."

Ehene says in a resonant voice, "I don't even know what I subverted."

You say in a croaky voice, "Who can say? These topics are quite mercurial."

You say in a croaky voice, "Perhaps they merely thought you were a git."

I want to make another Achaea video showing off my latest scripting with Mudlet but also now that I'm more in the game I don't want to show the business of people in my town, or do anything related to my goals in the city.

Maybe I'll just go to another town and observe people. 😅

Trying to think of what else to show off in the game, if anyone wants to see anything in particular.

Boating in #Achaea #MUD
(Second half shows the "animation".)

In #Achaea #MUD :
Someone took me sailing on their boat, then I got stranded on an ensnared boat, and I've been stranded for [in-game] days waiting for a rescue, and now the guy forgot some hookshots. 😢

So in #Achaea #MUD there are several city-states:

- Ashtan - Worships chaos?

- Cyrene - Art hub but worships water god now

- Eleusis - Trees and dryads

- Hashan - PROGRESS, secrets, and anti-zealotry

- Mhaldor - Evil

- Targossas - Zealots

Anyway that's my relatively novice level take on 'em.

Today in #Achaea , two player-run events went on: Boats, Booze, and Bears, and then a masquerade later on.

Also I'm so addicted, FOMO is too real. 😭

Yes I attended both, I basically was on for like 10 hours today. 😳

My Grook character in #Achaea

Lua scripting in MUDLET!!!

Learned that in #Achaea there is an everglade you can go to and REFLECT, then state

I AM HE
or
I AM SHE
or
I AM FAE

and it changes your pronouns, and it responds "of course you are".

And me myself AND my in game character are very happy to now be nonbinary in the game.

OK well in #Achaea I expressed my frustration to some of the more senior people in town, and they assured me that I can reach out to them and that they wouldn't "let some asshole run you off".

Actually super refreshing for an online community.

#Achaea #MUD update, I've graduated to #Mudlet instead of the Nexus client, and I've been writing Lua helper scripts. (All the purple windows, and the blurry chatbox, is mine!)

Playing Achaea MUD this week.
