Tales of Ta'veren MUSH has moved! The game is now located at tales.ta-veren.org 1998 (216.122.4.128 1998 for those who prefer IP addresses). We hope to see you over at our new site!

Tales of Ta'veren is a MUSH (a multi-user, online role-playing game) based on Robert Jordan's epic Wheel of Time fantasy novel series. Information on how to connect to the game and create a character is provided, as well as a wealth of information about the game setting. General information about MUSH and the Wheel of Time books is also available for those who are interested.

Tales of Ta'veren MUSH originally opened to players in January, 1995. We decided to temporarily close the game in October, 1996 to attend to several problems players had identified, and improve and enhance the game. We reopened in November, 1998. We pride ourselves on providing a friendly environment for novice MUSHers, and on our detailed and complex recreation of the Wheel of Time setting. We are constantly refining and adding to our storyline, atmosphere, code, building and policies to try and provide the most enjoyable Wheel of Time role-playing environment we can.

Tales of Ta'veren is completely free to play, and is a non-commercial enterprise.
