Andromeda Modded RP With 3 Lives
Faction Politicslore focused worldmodded survival rporigin selectionPlayer Run Economy
Andromeda is a semi hardcore modded server that is all about roleplay and making your own original character. It is whitelisted and you have to apply first. The server is 16 plus and they want to know your character and your goals before you join.
The lore is about following a strange trail of stars and arriving in Corsicana. It is a small coastal town built around trade. It is also the only known town on a huge unexplored land so exploration and discovery are a big part of the vibe.
Roleplay here is like civilization style. People can become leaders explorers farmers builders and more. Players can form factions and start businesses with industry and an economy while they chase their character goals and help shape the bigger story.
Gameplay is semi hardcore with a three lives system for each character. When you run out you get a final death and that character is permanently gone. There is also a downed state where you collapse and other players can rescue you before a five minute timer ends. If your character fully dies you are banned until you apply again with a new character and your old items do not carry over.
