The UnderRealms

Roleplay, Survival, Whitelist

🔥 🔥 🔥

We are currently whitelisted! Join the Discord to find out more! :)________________________________________________________________________We are looking for players who are extremely community oriented, or even willing to be. The idea is to have a similar environment as the HermitCraft SMP server and be story driven like Dream SMP or the Stoneworks RP server, but with a little twist. Theres really no major inspiration from that other than community oriented building and interacting. This will involve lore made by the staff to help encourage players to make their own. Every season, a few months to a year, the server is reset and built up again by you in new and creative ways. If this sounds like your cup of tea, JOIN THE DISCORD @ https://discord.gg/xwQTY6qKUh ! Before any player will be allowed to join, they will need to prove themselves to us Staff. Other than that, you will have free survival reign over the world as you would in a single player world. Just Be Courteous To Other Players and Try to make things look good to the best of your abilities. Also, all member updates are on the Discord channel. _________________________________________________________SERVER MAP – map.underrealming.tkPC Only. We are based in Java EditionAs the Seasons have gone on, we can no longer host the previous seasons as a creative test build world. They are much to big for the host server to handle along with the main world.
