Player-made clans

This is a hardcore SMP called Bloodlines that is built around civilizations and clans. You do not just spawn alone. You get invited and become part of a family and a clan that already has a story.

The server is invite only and every new player has to be invited by someone who is already inside. This makes the population grow slowly and helps keep trolls away. It feels more like a real world where people know someone to get in.

There are secret tweaks and special mechanics on the server but there are no guides. Players are supposed to discover everything by themselves. If you pay attention and stay dedicated you get rewarded by learning how the world really works.

Because of the clan and family system you always have people to play with and work with. The goal is to build up civilizations and see how they rise and fall over time in a hardcore world that is always on.

If the original invite codes are gone you can still try to join by talking to players in the community and asking for their personal invite codes. Many clans are looking for new members so there is a good chance to join if you put in the effort.
