This server is called Halcyon and it is a medieval style Lands PvP world. It feels like old school survival where you actually have to struggle a bit. Night cannot just be skipped and your health only comes back slowly and in special ways so every fight really matters.
The world is custom and handmade and it looks huge with big different biomes. There is no teleporting so travel is a big deal. People build roads waystations and even hidden railways underground. Crops and trees only grow well in certain biomes so players have to trade with each other to get what they want.
The server tries to reward creativity teamwork and specialization instead of boring meta tricks and big farms. Winning is more about brave battles smart trade deals strong cities and rallying other players to your banner.
There is no strict server lore you have to follow. The owner just lets players make their own stories. You can pick a direction punch trees and slowly your small base can turn into a big city or fortress as other players show up. People already make their own art books myths and weird superstitions and it all comes from how they play together.
The server runs the latest vanilla version 1.21.11 and it is hosted in Australia but there are players from Europe the Americas and Asia online a lot. It usually has a nice amount of people on so the world feels alive without being too crowded.
