PhoenixMUD was started in March of 1995 by Romulus. Later that month Masque joined the mud team as the second Implementor. Phoenix was originally hosted by New Mexico Tech University, on the system named sirius.nmt.edu. In August of 1995, Aleksandr and Cymynedd joined the Implementor staff as World Implementors. A few months after Aleks and Cymy joined the staff a new Phoenix, version 2.0, was born. Phoenix 2.0 was a combination of the original Gargamel/Masque code combined with the world that Aleksandr and Cymynedd had brought with them from their previous project. This meant many new areas for the players and the elimination of quite a few stock areas.

The actually Phoenix player's port experienced a few months of downtime for some code updates and to seek out a new site as we could no longer be hosted on sirius.nmt.edu. Due to the popularity of the game, many faithful players found the test port of the MUD and continued to play. Eventually the test port became the production port of the MUD.
