["The hustle and bustle of a thriving town coaxes you to enter into the happy festivities. The town square is the main center of prosperity, and it goes without saying that people of all persuasions work and play together rather peacefully in this welcoming place. Rumor has it that years and years ago, magical stones played an important part in the building of the town.. a kind of 'mystical' and 'magical' beginning. Some areas are reminders of these times, and some are reminders of hippie happiness. You can almost hear whispers on the wind saying... 'Peace and happiness!' and... 'Let's be happy!' Beautiful beaches line the eastern edge, with clear, cool water that sparkles like tiny stars in the sunlight. This is a place of diversity, with the common thread of friendship binding it all together."]ATHEMOO

[This MOO is under construction. The theme consists of "a modern society in which a number of the worlds superpowers have lost their leaders in a mass planned assasination. With a barely functioning economy the world was driven into chaos where every day life is a struggle to surrvive. The game itself will rely on the RP ablities of it's player base, and assisted by original coded systems of land and sea, air, space, economy, combat, health and advancement. Useless killing of the player base will not be condoned, and will be punished. However player death will be a reality, in an enviroment where food will be a precious commodity and money usless to the less powerful. Player death as a cuase of genuine RP and character concept will also be allowed." The developer writes, "Currently we are in need of coders and wizard staff. As a matter of fact I myself do not nesscarily have to be the arch wizard. I am a storyline developer and I have little to no skill in coding. I am willing to learn to code, but my main intention is to develope the direction of game flow. I have server space and a minimal db setup, now I need the talent to make what I beleive is a good game Idea take off."
