1255 | 37 The funniest [b]arch[/b]wizard in BatMUD .. at least in his own mind. |
1112 | 38 [b]No, really! He is funny.[/b] |
1295 | 39 The most notable of Darol's works so far are the Ancona manor, |
40 Kharim guild (The Legions of Blood God) and generally contributing | |
41 greatly to the lore of the game. | |
42 [p] | |
43 In addition he has contributed to different kinds of smaller projects | |
44 as well, including the usual bugfixes and maintaining various things. | |
45 Amongst the fellow wizards he is known for his | |
336 | 46 megalomaniac obsession for documentation which sometimes |
1239 | 47 grows larger than the projects themselves. |

1401 | 70 Juggelo;;juggelo.jpg; |
336 | 71 During his wizardly career, mr. Juggelo has been a real all-around |
72 handyman. His contributions include coding the feared eq-monster, | |
1112 | 73 [b]ancient beholder Gou'ljeg[/b]; working on maintaining areas and |
336 | 74 monsters; working on the mudlib, fixing bugs, recoding, etc. |
1112 | 75 [i]He has probably touched the code of almost every single eq-monster |
76 in the game[/i]. He is also known for making several well-known tunes | |
336 | 77 (for example the race-tune of 2006), usually related to maintaining |
1116 | 78 game balance. |

88 some are interconnected thematically, or at least loosely through | |

90 in diversity and content, both characteristics they are often either | |
91 loved or hated for. Ascended to archwizardhood with ~Shardik~ | |

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

1112 | 145 [b]cookies[/b] of various kinds.[p] |
336 | 146 Bat-wise Durand's contributions include one of the |
1112 | 147 "ultimate" eq-monsters in game, [b]Tiamat, the Chromatic Dragon[/b] |
148 (coded with ~Tormac~). His current work mainly involves | |
336 | 149 system maintenance of BatMUD servers. Sometimes he |
150 fixes bugs and codes nice things like BatURL. | |
1115 | 151 [p] |

187 the new sailor guilds and ships in general being just one part of | |
188 his repertoire. Besides those, he is also the mastermind behind | |
189 shipquests, though some of the work was delegated to other wizards | |

336 | 191 Last, but certainly not least, we should mention his involvement |
1112 | 192 with the great continent tune, which moved us into the [b]Age of |
193 Exiles[/b]. Melemkor was the major architect behind this major change, | |
336 | 194 although many other wizards also worked on the new content. |

196 Melemkor speaks: [i]"Thanks for playing :) Some of my projects have been really | |
336 | 197 popular, others have had decidedly mixed opinions; I hope things |

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

289 [i]The cosmic vortex shifts, and an old god who had recently awoken | |
290 from its slumber has lost its power.[/i] | |
1113 | 291 [p] |
292 Neverthless, Zonni's status as a legendary wizard of BatMUD is | |
293 undeniable, and references to him can be found all around in the | |
294 game. | |
634 | 295 $ |
296 | |
297 Dazzt;bat;bat://album90/aax.sized.jpg; | |
1113 | 298 Dazzt, also playfully known as Duz, was, during his mortal career, |
299 often playing a nun and unsurprisingly has dedicated much of his | |
300 wizardly time to improving the Nun guild. He is one of the current | |
301 maintainers of the Nun guild, along with ~Gurth~, ~Brock~, etc. | |
634 | 302 $ |
303 | |
304 | |
1401 | 305 Hablo;bat;hablo.jpg; |

307 other wizards' code. As to personal projects, Hablo has produced | |
308 Monastery of Beldarus, Rusty Shield bar, ship-related stuff for | |
309 Melemkor and some raceguilds. He also worked on Nun guild. | |
310 $ | |
311 | |
1401 | 312 Neth;;neth.jpg; |
634 | 313 Mr. Neth is mostly concentrating on producing new areas for newbies |
314 and harder/more difficult content for high-end of the playerbase. | |
1114 | 315 Working as an unofficial co-op development team with ~Enandor~. |
634 | 316 $ |
317 | |
1401 | 318 Souc;bat;souc.jpg; |
635 | 319 Swedish wizard, and a creator of several rather popular areas, |
320 most of which are currently (since late 2006) not in the game. | |
321 It has been mentioned, that the areas will be back "soon". | |
322 Souc has also authored events (hiking) and commands. | |
1112 | 323 [p] |
1228 | 324 List of the areas not reinstated (as of August 2011): |
1112 | 325 [b]Nishapur[/b] (based on a book), [b]Frog Pond[/b], |
326 [b]Rudraprayag[/b] (home of LQ42, based on a book) and | |
327 [b]Refuse Dump[/b] (expanded by Henri in 2003). | |
1228 | 328 [p] |
329 Also [b]Wrebies[/b] was previously converted by Souc, | |
330 but was recoded by ~Grizzt~ in September 2010. | |

337 [p] | |
338 [b]Sun Sep 27 19:21:38 2009 [general] by Ulath[/b][br] | |
859 | 339 In a huge cloud of flatulence, Corto disappears. Where he went, |
340 nobody knows. So long, and thanks for all the area... er, fish. | |
341 $ | |
342 | |
1113 | 343 Gurth;;; |
344 As a mortal, Gurth created a reputation of being a superbly | |
345 efficient player and a rather skilled eq party leader. | |
346 The speed that he progressed from a complete newbie to elder | |
347 nun is still remembered as a impressive feat. | |
348 [p] | |
349 After immorting Gurth worked on improving the Nun guild | |
350 and added in new form of relics. He has also worked on | |
351 some aspects of Heidel's area "Tyr Farwyn". | |
352 $ | |
353 | |
632 | 354 Malitrius;bat;; |
355 Malitrius, the mighty wizard from Sweden sports an | |
356 impressive catalogue of created areas, several events | |
637 | 357 (including the events for AQ, "Four Elements", previous LQ43), and |
632 | 358 also has done original code for several race guilds. |
