Midgaard is one of the three most populated urban centers. As well
as a robust merchant class, Midgaard boasts the first known guild
street, known as Guildsmans Row; nearly all the classes of characters
are represented here. Class Guilds have master teachers who are
willing to teach you skills and spells for a price. Like all major urban
centers, Midgaard has many interesting and important shops, as well
as an impressive Temple, dedicated to the pagan God Odin. Short and long term lodging is available in Midgaard at a competitive rate.

Midgaard is the most populous of the hometowns on JediMUD and is
strongly recommended for newbies.
