RedZephon hosts this server for his friends and family, but you’re invited to join us too! It’s often quiet, but sometimes a few of us are online. Join the discord to schedule a time to meetup and play.

Since the server is self-hosted, there’s no worry about a Minecraft host shutting down randomly, or the bills going unpaid. The server plans to stay up perpetually even if there are no players actively online.
