Halcyon is a Lands PvP server with a medieval feel and an old school survival style. It stays on the latest vanilla Minecraft version 1.21.11. The server is based in Australia and it has players from Europe the Americas and Asia with about 10 to 30 people on at a time.
The world is handmade and the server uses a few rules to make things harder and slow down progress. It pushes you away from meta tricks and automation and toward teamwork and creativity. Winning is more about bravery deals and leadership plus building big cities and strong fortresses.
There is no teleporting so travel matters a lot. People end up making roads waystations and even hidden underground rail lines. Some crops and saplings only work in certain biomes so trading becomes important and each area starts to feel different.
You do not have to follow strict lore. You can just play normally and let stories happen as players meet and clash. Nights cannot be skipped and healing is slower and only works in certain situations so you have to be careful.
