Play a part in the epic struggle of the Firan people against invading armies, meddling Gods, and the internal enemies that Fate has pit against them. Set in the capital city of Anarinuell, characters are a product of a rich heritage in which a divine wager and an historic marriage plunged the world into a war that has consumed three generations -- creating heroes, villains, and victims. Characters also share in common a large and powerful city of residence; a charismatic leader; and a common enemy. But Anarinuell is not a city about sameness, and roleplay focuses upon dramatic interactions among characters from different clans and different social strata with widely divergent religious and political views. Firan's coded systems are designed to exploit these differences -- allowing social, economic, and physical combat. Enhance your reputation in the community by earning social points. Use those social points to spy, to call upon favors, to supress witnesses against you or to sabotage another person's reputation. Use your economic skills to negotiate better prices, or to deplete the city's supply of a given resource -- driving up the market, or instigating riots and strikes! In physical combat you can pummel a foe with your fists, or run him through with your sword. You can even bring your assailant to justice with the legal system. Come be a part of the myth-making on Firan! ^[1]

Intrigue, romance and epic plots set the tone for the Romanlike FiranMUX. Set in the city Anarinuell, the political center of the Firan Republic, characters fight to retain and gain social status, use power to manipulate politics, preserve ancient clan rivalries, fight a common enemy and keep a sketchy banner of peace intact under a single captivating ruling family. Firan's coded systems are easy to learn, designed with player's ease in mind, and an aid to roleplaying, rather than a hindrance. Extensive help files, helpful staff members, and a friendly player base combine with the unique setting and history of the game to create a truly distinctive role playing experience. FiranMUX is based in an original world, with a unique, staff-run, overarching story-line. The creators and staff of FiranMUX have pulled the best of many games into one with an emphasis on intensive roleplaying, but ornamented with a versatile combat system, universal rules that govern the use of divine magic, a circular economic system, and tools with which to govern cities and nations. FiranMUX also boasts of a large number of other coded and FUN systems: war, clothing, fashion, social status, economics, legal, witnesses, rumors and gossip, food and drink, smithing and crafting, training and teaching, and others. The best part of the game is the characters. Players choose from a list of pre-generated characters who have pre-existing relationships, psychological depth and individual goals. You join the game fully immersed in the life of your character. Due to the complex relationships already in place, role playing begins immediately without a long search for connection to other characters. Play centers around political and social interactions between the Ranivor (not quite a king, not quite a president), the hereditary leaders of the eight clans, various nobles, and other citizens. Major game events include the Spring and Fall festivals and the yearly summer campaigns to reclaim the city of Ellish, which is still occupied by the non-human Shamibelian army. We encourage community-building through pages and chat channels that players can turn off when they want to concentrate on roleplaying. As a result, FiranMUX has attracted a wide range of mature, skilled role-players who know how to develop a character's personality, write entertaining stories, and have a good time.
