The Villager vs Illager Conflict

The biggest conflict there in Svallin currently is the Villager - Illager War which started about 2 years ago in the server. While the conflict happens everywhere since the dawn of Svallin, anyway, the hotspot currently sits at West Svallin, between the Illager army of Vuruethas (lead by Absinthe Vane,) and The Fortress City Midsommar, (lead by Queen Alexis Gjallarhorn.)

They aim to destroy the other for the sake of their people's (and their own) satisfaction and goals. If Vane wins, the illagers prevail. If Alexis wins, the villagers prevail.

So far, they are deadlocked, matched in both wits and resources.

-

So why beef with Midsommar?

Because of Alexis Gjallarhorn.

Alexis was an Alex-skinned player character who was spawned in initially during the absence of [spoiler man], and happened to save a village from pillagers during her travels. She was filled with a sense of justice and responsibility, and began building her own kingdom as a 'safe haven' for villagers pillaged by illagers.

And now, the safe haven's gotten too big! The Illagers, fearing of being wiped off by Alex's knights, decided to band up to try and fell Midsommar before they got 'too strong', and they have been at each other since.

More will be explained when I flesh out the kingdoms~

-

Are things only bad in Midsommar?

Not really. Besides Vane's army, there is another bigshot group that roams the lands, treated like a bad omen or the boogeyman.

This group of horseriders are called the Band of Claws. Unlike Vuruethas Amry, they usually ride on separate platoons and regroup once a while in the woods of Northern Svallin. They are infamous for making pillaging a sport and competition, and would even toy with villagers and children and hunt them on horseback 'for amusement.'

Its leader is Balalaika Zamrud. Many thinks she is much more cruel and cold compared to Vane, but she finds no fun in invasions. Hence, Vuruethas and Band of Claws don't really work together.

Zamrud does find interest in a certain village whose villagers know how to control fire...

-

...and others

Besides those two groups, Illagers still roam the land in different communities, but they always have one thing in mind: Pillaging and plundering. Thirsty for power and are aggressively territorial, the Illagers are becoming more brazen in the advent of high-ranking illagers who lead them to glory.

Depending on the biomes, illagers may form different kinds of pillaging groups such as: Desert Robbers, Pirates, or Snow Hunters.

They are as common as pillaging groups across Svallin, usually captained by lesser known illagers. They aren't as lethal, but they still cause losses alright.

-

There is more about illagers and villagers that I'm cooking up, but since this post has gotten quite long, maybe next time!

Villagers of Svallin

Villagers in Svallin can be compared to that of humans on earth. They are peaceful mobs who don't attack back, unless given the means to. Most villagers are not fighters and would rather run away than fight back.

.

Occupation and naming convention

A villager's occupation is their most important thing to them. It makes up their whole identity, and a balanced village means having everyone have a role that completes the village.

When a villager child is born, they will be known as '[Firstname] of [Parents' Firstname]', e.g. 'Lewis of Martha', or 'Freja of Thorin'. This naming convention means the villager is known to be tied to their mother or father. They will continue to have this name to adulthood, and can only change it once they have an occupation they are serious about.

Once they settle with an occupation, however, they are allowed to change their names! They can also choose to change their first name if they want to, but they are now known as '[Firstname] [Occupation]', e.g. 'Lewis Tinkerer' or 'Freja Baker'. This way, they will be known not for their families, but for the skills they have!

There's no use talking to a Nitwit, but they are still part of a village nonetheless.

.

Villages and Towns

Villagers spawn in within villages, which spawns in occasionally on random locations. These villagers will wear different clothing and behave differently depending on the biomes they spawn on.

Besides the line of villagers already available in vanilla Minecraft, some additional villagers in Svallin include:

Most of these are harmless and does not fight back, making them very prone to illager raids, getting pillaged, or killed. The Avengers, however, are can fight back.

.

The... 'Avengers?'

No, not THOSE Avengers.

Avengers are some sort of combat-leaning villagers. In the wild, usually they appear as mercenaries, who band together with a group of other avengers, and can even be hired to raid woodland mansions or illager camps.

Avengers are usually 'made' when the survivor of a village, usually child villagers, grew up resentful towards illagers. They equip swords, shields, or bows and use them to fight back against illagers.

However, training a villager in combat can also turn them into Avengers... minus the tragic backstories. That is how the Roseate Chivalric Order of Midsommar was established!

Of course, Avengers aren't just available in Midsommar. They can be found as small groups or individuals protecting their village. If you help them defend their village, you will gain their favor! :D

TL;DR, Avengers are villagers who can fight back and they super hate illagers.

Yes. The answer is yes. Everyone in Vejar are tbh

Welcome to Svallin!

Sooo as most of you followers have known me, my interests jump rapidly and incoherently between fandoms (Minecraft, Warframe, Minecraft, DRG, Undead Unluck, Minecraf-) and this time I am back to the silly voxel game and I am making a tiny personal project just for funsies.

Welcome to the server, Svallin! This place is in the works currently (Not an SMP I do not have the money nor energy for it) and is based on both my blogs @mc-survivalist-steven and @software-bugs-b-gon. It's my personal project with only me working on it so far, but I am using it as my sandbox as I fix lore stuff I don't sit well with in MCSS. Svallin is moreso an AU and is going to be a bit different than the lore in the blogs, so don't worry about 'inconsistencies'!

More OCs and worldbuild will be revealed overtime. For now, I just wanna have fun :DDD

(Oh and SBBG will continue next month if I get a job ok, dw!)

You really don't want to find him standing alone in the woods.

"The 'me' that you see wasn't enough, so you leave."

I posted another art here before relating Sigma's relationship with [Spoiler man] and why it destroyed me from the inside out HAHAHA

but this time im adding some not-so-tiny rant under here bc their strained relationship is so personal to me IM SORRY BOYS FOR RUINING YOU but this is an AU anyway so i get to go ham

(also fuck it im revealing spoiler man)

"Haru no Sekibaku" / "The Desolation of Spring" is one of my early Inabakumori songs which depicts thrown away relationship/friendship. Depends on how you see it, the singer laments but also cursed the relationship and the person who left them once their use ran out and, well,

Sigma's whole thing since MCSS has always been a 'tool' initially. He is appointed to serve Raha and to prioritize their happiness over himself. While Raha was thankful for his 110% effort, there was no actual reciprocation for all that effort, while Sigma wished to share a more 'special' relationship with someone who he thinks has feelings for him.

In a way, he expected Raha to love him/show love back to him, whereas Rahauel/Steven does not do the same due to their initial position and the trouble it would bring.

(TBHHHHH my plans for Sigma was initially different than who he is now. Aka, i didnt really plan this out properly since Sigma was supposed to just be a yandere trope villain who appears time and time again. I DIDNT MEAN TO MAKE HIM FLESHED OUT INITIALLY. MY GOD, HE WAS PLANNED TO BE A SHALLOW VILLAIN BFSGVFDSF which is why all this extra backstory planning were last minute, yet they are so good that i couldn't help BUT include them. It's why their conflict is so messy and confusing to me, because I think I planned it very poorly and didn't connect the dots right and ended up feeling weird about it.)

(Teehee)

bUT LISTEN the song basically just hits them right. For Sigma, it was a declaration of remorse for all the wasted effort and the useless feeling of chasing a one-sided relationship and the bitterness of having that innocent yet entitlement tarnished when Steven rejected him after the first BBQ event.

But on the other side of the coin, it also lowkey applied to Steven/Raha, who did their best to be accepted by an uncaring mother who wanted nothing but tangible results and victory over everything.

So all that remains are lingering feelings, yet also a bridge burnt to the ground from both ends.

And what makes it worse is that Sigma refuses to talk to Steven out of that bitterness, disappointment, and also ego after saying he will leave Svallin forever. On the other hand, Steven avoids him out of guilt, or puts on a mask and throwing shallow quips at Sigma whenever they meet because he realized the severity of what he did and weighed by guilt over it, thinking he deserves someone better instead of babysitting a weak, 'helpless' asshole like him.

...

Just kiss already.

Currently building Vejar Town, the upgraded form of the village Steven lives in close proximity to :D

This is just a slice of it. I'll post pics and add info about the town when I'm fully done with the build~

Just because he's 'just a Steve' now, doesn't mean he isn't unhinged anymore lmfao

in fact he's probably worse than ever-

Spoiler man and the usage of mobile aid.

Honestly, he hates having restricted move since he didn't have issue walking before. He is still getting used to everything new after that respawn, and this is one of the bigger changes he gotta come to terms with.

It's why he keeps trying to walk or stand if he can!! But it hurts him!! So he does it extremely sparingly now. He grumbles about it with a smile on his face.
