Dalion

Dalion was a multi-user dungeon (MUD) created by Danish coding guru Morten Riis Svendsen in Copenhagen, during 2000, mostly using mIRC's internal scripting language. Svendsen claimed the influence of the Final Fantasy series when creating the fantasy world and much of the combat engine. The MUD featured many innovations such as a shorthand command to engage in sexual intercourse with any in-game object or character. Sadly, the project was never made completely workable due to irreconcilable differences within the development team which resulted in the unfortunate mortal wounding of design expert Stephen Tkachuk. Although Tkachuk would recover from his wounds, Svendsen declared the project a "pitiful failure" and would eventually lose interest in mIRC scripting. A loyal fanbase still petitions Svendsen for the completion of the MUD. The Debar Controversy Perhaps the single greatest obstacle to the completion of the project would be the creation of an entity named Debar. The design team could never even agree to what type of mythical creature Debar would even resemble. Furthermore, frequent disputes would erupt over Debar's reproductive capabilities. Tkachuk envisioned an unique unfertilized egg breeding capability which Debar could produce without insemnation, artificial or otherwise. Lyall Chazen would challenge Tkachuk's vision and argue that since Debar was an immortal being, it would have no need of reproductive capabilities whatsoever.
