The Pen is a classic prison server that feels like the old days. It is not an OP prison so you actually have to grind for money and gear. You start with basic tools and leather armor and you work your way up through the ranks.
You mine and smelt your ores then walk through pvp zones to sell them in the commissary. There is no instasell so every trip is risky. Swords and potions are illegal and if guards see you with contraband they will fight you and can even send you to solitary confinement for bad conduct.
There are normal prison ranks from A up to H and then you can become a Parolee and finally a Citizen. After you hit the top rank you can prestige for special rewards. You can also rent a prison cell or a prison plot to store items build little setups grow illegal plants or run your own shop to sell to other players.
The server has guards senior guards wardens and higher staff that keep things under control and help new players. There are quests you can complete for cash or special items. You can earn money in many ways like mining fishing growing illegal crops or using the auction house. There are also bounties you can place on enemies and parkour challenges scattered around the prison.
Overall it is a barebones nostalgic prison server focused on grinding pvp and community instead of crazy overpowered gear.

Halcyon is a lands PvP server that feels like old school Minecraft but on a big handmade world. It tries to be a tough medieval style survival server with a focus on politics war and travel.
The world is custom with large biomes and there is no teleporting. Because of that players build roads waystations and even secret underground railways. The F3 menu is turned off so you have to actually learn navigation or buy lodestone compasses from other players or follow maps. Getting around is a big part of the game.
Progression is slower and the server uses a few rules to make the game harder and to stop cheesy meta play. You get rewarded more for teamwork creativity and picking a role instead of just abusing farms. People succeed by fighting in battles making trade deals building huge cities and fortresses and getting other players to follow their banner.
There is no strict server lore and no set storyline. You just join pick a direction punch some trees and start your own thing. Over time players make their own stories art books myths and weird superstitions. The plugins and the world are built to push that kind of emergent story so every group ends up with its own history.
The server runs the latest vanilla version 1.21.10 and is based in Australia with people also from Europe the Americas and Asia.
