The Server of Etheos is a world of its own, a world of hidden magics, hybrids, monsters, dimensions, and kingdoms. Surrounded by great seas, filled with lush jungles, thick forests, wide plains, towering mountains, and stifling deserts… For centuries, it has existed as such. People claimed the lands, waged wars, took lives, and toppled empires. Inversely, people settled, fell in love, gave life, and led the people of the lands. Etheos is rich in history, told through many stories and confined to legends or lost to time altogether.
To you, worlds can be created with the tap of a finger, the whim of a creative mind. To you, they are pixels on a screen, moving lights creating a picture of a world at your mercy.
To them, it is real.
To them, this is their world, this is their home, and they know nothing more.
They are the players.
This is the game.
Thus begins a new story, a tale untold, of travels and wars, of secrets and brotherhood, of quests to alter the very course of the universe.
May the adventure begin.

And yes, this IS a Minecraft AU.
People have different amounts of lives, the three main dimensions exist, and no matter what one will always respawn AT SPAWN, which is located near the center of the continent. Of course there are more world mechanics out there, but I'm going to keep some of them hidden for plot purposes.If there are any lore/worldbuilding questions, I would LOVE to answer them in the comments. ~Vaughn
