About Threshold RPG

Threshold is a high fantasy, real-time, multi-player, online role playing game. Once you step across the Threshold you will be absorbed by the rich, detailed, highly developed role playing atmosphere that comprises this fantasy realm. You become the hero, the heroine, or even the villain depending on your character and your imagination. On Threshold, role playing is required and enforced. This policy creates and preserves Threshold's top notch role playing environment. Although there are places to communicate "out of character" within the game (after all, it is nice to get to know the people you are gaming with), outside of such areas players stay completely in character. Threshold RPG opened to the public in June of 1996. It is the oldest role playing enforced MUD currently in operation. Available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, this exciting gaming environment is home to thousands of players from all over the world. These players are indeed what makes Threshold RPG a truly unique and marvellous gaming community.

Threshold: a world of adventure, glory, intrigue, romance, and excitement. It is a world filled with beings of all sorts: some friendly and charming, others fiendish and desirous of tearing you to pieces and feasting upon your bloody entrails. The Threshold game world is enormous in scope and within it are tremendous opportunities for character development. Among such opportunities are numerous types of political, economic, and social organizations that shape your character, and in turn can be shaped by your character.
