I would like to announce the Open House of the new Dune Imperium RP sim, this weekend, August 31 - September 2. On Monday, we will be officially open for In-Character interaction and roleplay.
Dune Imperium is a story-based roleplay area running on the Second Life graphical platform. We aim to simulate the visual grandeur and appeal of the SciFi Channel's "Dune" and "Children of Dune" TV series, as well as the depth of plot and character in Frank Herbert's beloved classic book _Dune_. This is done by encouraging solid character development, honoring the original book's theme, and stimulating inclusive stories and plot. The game welcomes players of all levels of Dune fandom, and offers a newbie-friendly environment with in-game help on theme and using Second Life. Dune Imperium is free to participate in and the Second Life Basic Account is free of charge, though costs of your own choice in-world can be incurred to improve your experience (fancy clothing, avatar skins, etc.)
