Holy Mission


Holy Mission is a medieval fantasy MUD based in Linz, Austria. Founded in 1992 and still online, it is one of the longest-running MUDs. It uses the LPMud server software, and has been seen as typifying the "LPMud genre". Its name does not reflect any particular religious themes.
It is most notable in that, following extended political disagreements with the Arch-Wizards on the direction of the game, Sarah Eaglesfield deleted all files from the MUD server in 1998. Despite her keeping a backup of all the game files, the original driver could not be found, and the MUD was never fully restored. Redsexy was promoted to a "Lord" for her work on the restoration project.
Former Arch-Wizard "Kiri" is still actively involved in attempting to restore the original MUD.
