ArcticMC is a new survival server that started just a couple days ago. It is an SMP with Towny and factions so people can build towns claim land make allies or fight for territory.
PVP matters here but it is meant to be more fair because they use an honor system. The rules explain how that works so players know what is allowed.
It also has McMMO skills so you level up while you play and unlock special abilities at higher levels. There are custom items too and they even have furniture that is entity based so they plan limits per chunk to help with lag.
The world uses tectonic generation so the terrain looks realistic with big mountains and valleys. The community is described as calm friendly and more about relaxing than chaos.
