501 | 26 Darol;bat;img/darol.jpg; |
1255 | 27 The funniest [b]arch[/b]wizard in BatMUD .. at least in his own mind. |
1112 | 28 [b]No, really! He is funny.[/b] |
1295 | 29 The most notable of Darol's works so far are the Ancona manor, |
30 Kharim guild (The Legions of Blood God) and generally contributing | |
31 greatly to the lore of the game. | |
32 [p] | |
33 In addition he has contributed to different kinds of smaller projects | |
34 as well, including the usual bugfixes and maintaining various things. | |
35 Amongst the fellow wizards he is known for his | |
336 | 36 megalomaniac obsession for documentation which sometimes |
1239 | 37 grows larger than the projects themselves. |
38 [p] | |
1255 | 39 [b]Darol ascended to archwizardhood in 20th of August 2011 |

632 | 60 Juggelo;;img/juggelo.jpg; |
336 | 61 During his wizardly career, mr. Juggelo has been a real all-around |
62 handyman. His contributions include coding the feared eq-monster, | |
1112 | 63 [b]ancient beholder Gou'ljeg[/b]; working on maintaining areas and |
336 | 64 monsters; working on the mudlib, fixing bugs, recoding, etc. |
1112 | 65 [i]He has probably touched the code of almost every single eq-monster |
66 in the game[/i]. He is also known for making several well-known tunes | |
336 | 67 (for example the race-tune of 2006), usually related to maintaining |
1116 | 68 game balance. |

78 some are interconnected thematically, or at least loosely through | |
79 the master thief Trilloch's story. His areas and monsters are rich | |
80 in diversity and content, both characteristics they are often either | |
81 loved or hated for. Ascended to archwizardhood with ~Shardik~ | |
82 in 2005. Main author of following major (one-shot) game events in BatMUD: | |

111 was "Small Meadow" area with G'naa'Byeh in 2007. Several | |

336 | 123 has worked mostly on non-game elements ever since. His best |
124 known works include the improved news reader, exp-leecher | |
125 and Capture the Flag events. He ascended to archwizardhood | |

1112 | 134 [b]cookies[/b] of various kinds.[p] |
336 | 135 Bat-wise Durand's contributions include one of the |
1112 | 136 "ultimate" eq-monsters in game, [b]Tiamat, the Chromatic Dragon[/b] |
137 (coded with ~Tormac~). His current work mainly involves | |
336 | 138 system maintenance of BatMUD servers. Sometimes he |
139 fixes bugs and codes nice things like BatURL. | |
1115 | 140 [p] |

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

176 the new sailor guilds and ships in general being just one part of | |
177 his repertoire. Besides those, he is also the mastermind behind | |
178 shipquests, though some of the work was delegated to other wizards | |
1112 | 179 (Malack, Hablo, etc.)[p] |
336 | 180 Last, but certainly not least, we should mention his involvement |
1112 | 181 with the great continent tune, which moved us into the [b]Age of |
182 Exiles[/b]. Melemkor was the major architect behind this major change, | |
336 | 183 although many other wizards also worked on the new content. |

336 | 186 popular, others have had decidedly mixed opinions; I hope things |

196 things in current BatWorld: terrain maps of Desolathya, Lucentium, | |

272 He was retired and offline for many years until returning suddenly | |
