# Final Realms / Final Realms

> slug: `finalrealms` · browser status: `playable` · native port: `40216`

A classic, from-scratch English-language MudOS mudlib whose own commit history dates to 1998 -- the oldest-vintage lib onboarded into this collection so far. A full game world, not a bare engine: character creation drops new arrivals into the "Hall of Creation," where a one-time `become <race>` command permanently picks one of 12 playable races (Drow, Duergar, Dwarf, Elf, Gnome, Goblin, Half-Elf, Half-Orc, Halfling, Human, Lizard-Man, Orc) before sending them to that race's own dedicated newbie zone -- real per-race taverns and shops, not a shared generic starting room. Five character guilds (Cleric, Fighter, Mage, Rogue, Warrior) round out the RPG progression, with the Mage guild alone branching into nine D&D-style specialist schools (Abjurer, Conjurer, Diviner, Enchanter, Illusionist, Invoker, Necromancer, Transmuter, and a general path), plus a full wizard-building toolset for creators.

## Run natively with FluffOS

1. Build a current FluffOS driver from https://github.com/fluffos/fluffos
   (native `build` / `build-debug`; see that repo's docs).
2. Download and unzip `finalrealms.zip` from the URL above (or clone
   `https://github.com/fluffos/mudlibs` and use `libs/finalrealms/`).
3. From the unzipped lib directory, ensure `config.fluffos` points
   `mudlib directory` at this tree (the checked-in file may contain a
   maintainer-local absolute path — edit it to your extract path).
4. Start the driver:

```bash
/path/to/fluffos/build/src/driver config.fluffos
```

5. Connect a UTF-8 MUD client to `127.0.0.1:40216`.

- Admin / wizard login: see this lib's README (no seeded account recorded)
- If you host this on a public network, change the published default
  admin password before opening the port.
