LegendMUD is a Diku-derived MUD created in late 1993 and launched officially on February 14, 1994. It is themed around history, and early on used the slogan "history the way they thought it was." In older materials, it is sometimes referenced as just "Legend."It has been in continuous operation since inception, except for minor downtime when moving hosts or when having technical issues. It is known for being one of the more innovative DikuMUDs, with particular attention towards roleplay features and a game system that was quite different from typical DikuMUDs.
