Masquerade MUSH is closed

It is with profound sadness that we announce the death of Augury's player and the subsequent permanent closure of Masquerade MUSH.

As a person and friend, Augury's player was unfailingly kind and generous, with a huge heart, a wicked sense of humor, and an infectious laugh. Her untimely passing from cancer on November 27, 2019 has left her family and friends bereft. She is forever beloved, desperately missed, and always will be.

As a writer and storyteller, Augury was unparalleled. Her plots were thoughtful, intricate, and intense. She would run scenes for pretty much anyone who was out in public, no matter the sphere. And sometimes, you would fear that your character wouldn't make it out of the scene intact—and the RP and storytelling would be so good, that you honestly wouldn't care.

If you peruse the Wiki, you can see some of the lasting legacy that Augury has left behind, including a overall history of Masq that describes her contributions. Please add your own memories here, or feel free to contact Fate to share anything that can be passed along to the family.

Our game is set in The Duke City &mdash; Albuquerque, New Mexico, a city of a million souls, including Sorcerers, Vampires, Werewolves, and other things that go bump in the night. A city where the forces of good and evil fight a quiet war that has been going on for centuries, right in front of our eyes, though we've never seen it. A city where the average person's life is fraught with peril, and she may never even notice it. This is the World of Darkness: a world where people wake up and read about rape, murder, and horrors we can only imagine, and consider it the status quo.
