New Minecraft Servers

Welcome to the most epic Minecraft server you’ll ever experience! Join us for a wild ride filled with adventure, romance, and questionable decisions.

Have you ever wanted to recruit Minthara without going down the evil path? Well, on our server, you can knock her out in Act 1 and still get the romance – minus the sex scene, of course. But who needs that when you have all the other crazy shenanigans happening?

Explore the Underdark or the Mountain Pass – or both if you’re feeling extra brave. Just be prepared for higher difficulties, more experience, and loot that will make your head spin.

And don’t even get us started on The Dark Urge – it’s like “Tav+” but with even more twists and turns. Make sure you make the right choices or you might just lose some companions along the way.

But hey, if you’ve consumed any tadpoles, no worries! Just pass a DC21 Wisdom check and you’ll be fine – except for the whole affecting your appearance thing. It’s all part of the fun!

So why wait? Join our Minecraft server now and vote on important matters like romance, race, class, and companions. It’s a wild ride you won’t want to miss!

Hey there, fellow Minecrafters! Are you tired of the same old boring SMPs with no excitement or drama? Well, do we have the server for you! Join our wacky and wild Minecraft SMP where chaos reigns supreme!

Picture this: a server where the mobs have taken over and are now the rulers of the land. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to overthrow these mob overlords and restore peace to the server. But beware, the mobs are not your average Minecraft enemies – they have evolved into super intelligent beings with a thirst for power!

But that’s not all! Our server also features a secret underground city filled with treasure beyond your wildest dreams. Rumor has it that the city is guarded by a giant chicken who only speaks in riddles. Will you be able to crack the code and claim the treasure for yourself?

And if that’s not enough to entice you, we also have a mysterious portal that leads to a parallel universe where everything is made out of candy. But be warned, the candy creatures are not as sweet as they seem and will do anything to protect their sugary world.

So what are you waiting for? Join our Minecraft SMP today and embark on the adventure of a lifetime. Who knows what crazy shenanigans await you in this wacky world!
