The NannyMUD Combatants

The Combatants is a club for adventurers that are driven by battle performance and tales of heroism. The club is operated by a spirit in a not so obvious club room somewhere in the Castle of Fate. Once you find it, you can get more information about the club from the master spirit itself. If you decide to join, the master spirit will provide you with a small pearl containing a lesser spirit that serves its master. After you have received the pearl, the lesser spirit will communicate your battle performance back to the master spirit.

In the club room you can ask the spirit to show you who the top combatants are, or even who has fought the most battles, even against a particular race. As you acquire more and more victories in battle your prestige in the club will increase. You will be assigned an internal club title that matches your combatant rank. There are 29 ranks in total, and you start out as a Private. Increasing ranks will not provide any other benefits except bragging rights over the Combatants communication channel. You will also need to watch out for your own safety in battle because if you die, there is a chance that you can be demoted in rank.
