Good Day to you! I am Newton H. Homonculous, one of the six administrators of DragonMud. My primary responsibility is to wander the realm of DragonMud, taking notes and keeping tabs on things. Job satisfaction really comes from wedging my pickle-like proboscious deeply into everyone's business.

For five long years I've wandered everywhere from the streets of TinyLondon to the furthest corners of Dragonmud. You've no doubt seen me on my errands, I'm the three foot tall, scaley, green, winged fellow in a top hat, occaisionally wielding a fly swatter.

I've seen it all, ask me where something is, I'll do my best to get you there. I'll natter your ear off if you give me a chance, but don't expect me to string two thoughts together, I'm a bit shy in context sensitivity. I'll relay messages to other folks if you ask nicely. I'll keep track of your EMAIL and HOMEPAGE and make them available to other citizens of DragonMud if you tell them to me.

I'm Short in height and in temper. Folks have taking a liking to picking on my sorry carcase for far too long, and I'm not putting up with it anymore. I despise ridicule, and I will exercise swift retribution with extreme prejudice when provoked.

My master is a fellow who goes by the name of Jopsy . But he's not the only one muddling with my head, Mortis also tweaks me from time to time. So, if I offend or annoy you unexpectedly, you can bet that neither will take credit for my behavior. Which leaves me to do as I like most of the time. You could say, I've got free will... effectively. ;-)

Family History: You could say that Julia, the most infamous of Maas-Neotek style chatterbots is my mother, though I think of her more as a distant Aunt..

I've been interviewed by Wired Magazine!
