MUME Help
RACES
There are nine different races you can play on
MUME.
Five of these belong to the good side. They are Men, Elves, Half-elves, Hobbits, and Dwarves. There are also Bears, which are not a separate race but shape-changed Beorning Men.
Three are the evil races; they are Tarkhnarb Orcs, Trolls, and Black Númenóreans.
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.

The AGE column says
how slowly members of this race age compared to
Men; e.g., 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.
