Crossroads. A city at the heart of an empire, tormented by a dark past and struggling to throw off the shadows chaining its future.

Gateway is an island empire. Four islands form a ring around a fifth central isle, the place where all ships must pass due to magical Currents. The entire nation is surrounded by a magical Barrier and ruled over by the Emperor, Providence's chosen Keeper of the Gateway. The future of the world of Ikol is charted in this land where shadowy legacies are still unfolding and shaping the lives of those who live here.


Crossroads MUSH is an original-themed, medieval fantasy role-playing game with a dedicated playerbase, friendly and helpful staff, and a world of mystery just waiting to be discovered. Magic, politics, intrigue, and ancient cultures collide in this human world, providing an immersive environment that has our players and staff hopelessly addicted. We value intelligent and grid-driving roleplay, well-rounded characters with flaws, and the contributions made by each individual player to enhance and grow our RP world.

Recent Happenings and Events

A year after the Great Schism rocked the Empire, the people of Gateway are hit with another shock, the death of their Emperor and Keeper, Rourke Caprios, in late October 509. It was announced that the attempt to close the Gateway, the cause of the Schism the year prior, did not completely seal it and it was only with the Keeper's sacrifice of his own life that truly sealed the Gateway. His heir, Jordan Caprios is still a young boy and until he comes of age, the Emperor has named his First Knight, Mihovil Pasternak, and Imperial Chamberlain, Helena Soranus, as Regents of the Empire of Gateway, both forsaking their former titles and, it turns out, were wed by the Emperor just before he died.

In Memoriam
Cyn.jpg
On August 31, 2006, Crossroads MUSH lost our friend and co-headwiz, Loki. There are not words to express how much her tragic loss has affected us all. The staff of Crossroads hereby dedicates our game to Loki, whose vision brought it forth from the æther and made it a home for so many people. Loki, you are missed. We love you.
