1255 | 36 The funniest [b]arch[/b]wizard in BatMUD .. at least in his own mind. |
1112 | 37 [b]No, really! He is funny.[/b] |
1295 | 38 The most notable of Darol's works so far are the Ancona manor, |
39 Kharim guild (The Legions of Blood God) and generally contributing | |
40 greatly to the lore of the game. | |
41 [p] | |
42 In addition he has contributed to different kinds of smaller projects | |
43 as well, including the usual bugfixes and maintaining various things. | |
44 Amongst the fellow wizards he is known for his | |
336 | 45 megalomaniac obsession for documentation which sometimes |
1239 | 46 grows larger than the projects themselves. |

1401 | 69 Juggelo;;juggelo.jpg; |
336 | 70 During his wizardly career, mr. Juggelo has been a real all-around |
71 handyman. His contributions include coding the feared eq-monster, | |
1112 | 72 [b]ancient beholder Gou'ljeg[/b]; working on maintaining areas and |
336 | 73 monsters; working on the mudlib, fixing bugs, recoding, etc. |
1112 | 74 [i]He has probably touched the code of almost every single eq-monster |
75 in the game[/i]. He is also known for making several well-known tunes | |
336 | 76 (for example the race-tune of 2006), usually related to maintaining |
1116 | 77 game balance. |

89 in diversity and content, both characteristics they are often either | |
90 loved or hated for. Ascended to archwizardhood with ~Shardik~ | |
91 in 2005. Main author of following major (one-shot) game events in BatMUD: | |

120 was "Small Meadow" area with G'naa'Byeh in 2007. Several | |
121 industry analysts consider G'naa'Byeh to be one of the most | |

1112 | 144 [b]cookies[/b] of various kinds.[p] |
336 | 145 Bat-wise Durand's contributions include one of the |
1112 | 146 "ultimate" eq-monsters in game, [b]Tiamat, the Chromatic Dragon[/b] |
147 (coded with ~Tormac~). His current work mainly involves | |
336 | 148 system maintenance of BatMUD servers. Sometimes he |
149 fixes bugs and codes nice things like BatURL. | |
1115 | 150 [p] |

166 contributions in past have included the party system, battle | |

188 shipquests, though some of the work was delegated to other wizards | |

336 | 190 Last, but certainly not least, we should mention his involvement |

195 Melemkor speaks: [i]"Thanks for playing :) Some of my projects have been really | |

379 | 205 Noctur has contributed areas, and designed perhaps few of the most visible |
206 things in current BatWorld: terrain maps of Desolathya, Lucentium, | |
207 Furnachia and half of Rothikgen. He also wrote the background lore and | |

291 Neverthless, Zonni's status as a legendary wizard of BatMUD is | |
292 undeniable, and references to him can be found all around in the | |
293 game. | |

1113 | 297 Dazzt, also playfully known as Duz, was, during his mortal career, |
298 often playing a nun and unsurprisingly has dedicated much of his | |
299 wizardly time to improving the Nun guild. He is one of the current | |
300 maintainers of the Nun guild, along with ~Gurth~, ~Brock~, etc. | |
634 | 301 $ |

319 most of which are currently (since late 2006) not in the game. | |

321 Souc has also authored events (hiking) and commands. | |
1112 | 322 [p] |

1113 | 342 Gurth;;; |
343 As a mortal, Gurth created a reputation of being a superbly | |
344 efficient player and a rather skilled eq party leader. | |
345 The speed that he progressed from a complete newbie to elder | |
346 nun is still remembered as a impressive feat. | |
347 [p] | |
348 After immorting Gurth worked on improving the Nun guild | |
349 and added in new form of relics. He has also worked on | |
350 some aspects of Heidel's area "Tyr Farwyn". | |
