The Holy Roman Empire, 1526. The Inquisition hunts. The old ways endure.
Enter the WorldA browser-based MUD (Multi-User Dungeon) set in the darkest years of the Holy Roman Empire. No downloads. No installs. Just you, your choices, and a world where every action has consequences.
Explore 27 zones from the quiet farms of Wiesenthal to the demonic reaches beyond mortal understanding. Craft alchemical remedies from historical recipes. Stand trial before the Inquisition. Summon familiars. Or hunt those who do.
The Inquisition. God's instrument against heresy. As an Inquisitor, Flagellant, or Physician, you root out witchcraft, prosecute the accused, and defend the faith with steel and scripture. The Malleus Maleficarum is your guide.
The old ways. Hedge magic, demonic pacts, and forbidden knowledge passed down through centuries. As a Cunning Woman, Hexenmeister, or Hedge Witch, you practice the craft in secret while the pyres burn.
Not everyone picks a side. Mercenaries sell their sword to the highest bidder. Diabolists walk the razor's edge between power and damnation.
From starter villages to endgame demonic wastelands. Each zone has its own faction tension, quests, NPCs, and secrets.
6,650 ingredients and 4,063 recipes extracted from real 15th-16th century source texts. Brew potions, medicines, poisons, beer, and ink.
5,697 trial templates drawn from the Malleus Maleficarum and historical court records. Accuse, defend, or be accused.
Town criers spread rumors. Bards sing ballads about player deeds. NPCs react to your reputation, faction, and sins.
Visit a fortune-teller and receive readings based on your actual game state. 16 geomantic figures, 12 astrological houses.
A 5-stage progressive system. Temptation, obsession, infestation, oppression, and full possession. Power at a terrible cost.
