Towers of New Londinium — or as everyone, including staff, calls it, “TowersMUX” — is a World of Darkness MUX set in the city of London, using the 20th Anniversary World of Darkness rules and setting.

As of September 2024, we’re coming to the end of what we hope will be a short period of beta-testing before the game can be fully opened to the world! During the beta test period:

• Access to the game is by invitation only; character creation at the login screen is disabled.
• Content on this site may (and is likely to) change, though probably not in major ways.
• The central London IC grid is now complete, and we’ll be taking a short pause before adding more areas, probably until after opening. When we do add more, the next boroughs will be Hammersmith and Waltham Forest, with the remaining outlying boroughs to be added in over time.
• The Nosferatu Warrens and Ratkin Warrens are complete, and the remainder of the Subterranean London grid is now in progress. The Middle Umbra grid is next, though it will probably not be in place before opening. Please use RP rooms where necessary to substitute for them until they’re ready. The Upper and Lower Umbra and the Digital Web may be added eventually if there’s sufficient demand.
• We’re now over 100 IC +hangouts and venues; staff creation of same has slowed down so we can focus on other pre-opening tasks. Player builds are still being added!
• Automation of the influence system is still to come, and is likely to take significant time. Until then, requests will be handled manually. Please be patient!
• Vampire, Werewolf, and Mage are available now. We’re reviewing some unfinished Changeling tasks before a full rollout.
• Writeups describing the IC institutions for available spheres are all now in place.
• We’re working some metaplot drops into the game now, and plan to have some major beats in place for opening.
• We are in the process of gradually rolling out houserules as time allows; please try to be flexible. As much as we’d like to have them all in place before opening, it’s probably unlikely.
• Staff is focused on completing the remaining elements needed for opening, so requests for things like NPC appearances, influence system actions, information on specific IC elements, etc., will probably be delayed a little longer than in an ideal world.

Thank you for your patience while we compile the information we need and push it out to this website, as we continue to develop the game and the world it’s set in. We’re working as quickly as we can to make our version of London a compelling and fully realized place to roleplay, but we don’t want to compromise just to make it happen according to a fixed schedule, either.

We look forward to welcoming you into our shared world.
