There are nine different races you can play on MUME.
Five of these belong to the good side (a.k.a. "whities"). They are
Men, Elves, Half-elves, Hobbits, and Dwarves. There are also Bears,
which are not a separate race but shapechanged Beorning Men.
Three are the evil races (a.k.a. "darkies"); they are Tarkhnarb Orcs,
Trolls, and Black Númenoreans.
The last race is the Zaugurz Orcs, forming a side of its own.
Different races have different effects on their basic statistics, as
you can see in the table below.
STR CON DEX PER INT WIS WIL AGE ------------------------------------------------------- Man -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Dúnadan 1.5 Other 1.0 Elf -1 -1 +1 +1 +1 -- -1 Noldo 3.5 Sinda 3.0 Silvan 2.5 Half-Elf -1 -- -- -- -- +1 -- 2.0 Dwarf +1 +1 -1 -1 -- -1 +1 2.0 Hobbit -2 +1 +1 -- -1 -- +1 1.5 ------------------------------------------------------- Bear +4 +2 +3 +2 -4 -2 -4 1.0 ------------------------------------------------------- Orc (*) +2 +2 -- -- -3 -2 -2 2.0 Troll +7 +4 -3 -2 -3 -3 -3 2.0 Númenorean -- -- -- -- -- -1 -2 1.5 -------------------------------------------------------
*) Both Tarkhnarb and Zaugurz
Age is how slow members of this race age compared to Men. I.e., an
Elf ages 3 times slower, and a Hobbit 1.5 times slower.
Other than these, there are effects on height and weight and a variety
of other areas.
