We are looking for creative, dedicated individuals to
add to our permanent staff. Applicants should have a
good grasp of grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
Applicants should be willing to spend -at least- six hours
per week for the next few months until we open. After
that, time commitments can be revisited.

Please note that accepting a staff position on DH means
that you no longer have all the rights a player does
in regards to playing a character on DH. It doesn't mean you won't be able to play at all, but it does mean you'll have quite a few restrictions. It also means you'll be privy to all the behind the scenes workings of a mud, and the world may lose a bit of its magic for
you. Keep these facts in mind when deciding to apply!

To apply:

Write out three sample objects, rooms, and mobiles (npc's)
for the staff to review. Use the following form...just
fill in the blanks! Samples given need not be in the
flavor of DH, but it certainly wouldn't hurt. Samples
must be written in a rpi manner (i.e. no jokes, no monty
python death bunnies, etc.). Reference the example at the bottom of the page if need be.

NOTE: Try to write the descriptions using only sensory details, i.e. how someone would perceive the room/object/mob if they knew nothing about it.

ex. long: The evil sword of kasalus lies here. (wrong)

ex. long: A sword of dark metal lies here etched with red runes. (right)

Keep this in mind when writing full descriptions as well!

NOTE: One also cannot include any information about where the mobile/object is, or what the mobile is wearing or currently doing (as that will change).

copy and paste the info below, and sent it to staff@darkh.com

Example:

Keywords: Melissa, short, brown-eyed girl
short description: a short, brown-eyed girl
long description: A short girl with brown eyes stands here.
full description:
This young girl wears her hair in long flowing
locks which spill down her shoulders. Her skin is
quite pale, and faint freckles adorn her cheeks. Though
she is quite short, her ramrod-straight posture seems to
work in defiance of that fact, lending her a strength of
stature quite out of sync with her small frame. Her eyes
are a bright green, and her left index finger has been cut
off at the first joint.
