Re: Defias Minecrafters United!
Some lore I thought up after some discussion on the server:
The Mass Exile from the Coldlands
The Coldlands have never been warm. They have always been a chilly, desolate place. There, winters lasted for years, summers weeks...
Though the people of the land prospered. They were simple folk, shepards, fishermen, tradesfolk.
However, in many years long past, a sweeping wave of chilling cold, freezing the blood in men's veins, pushing forth age-old glaciers from their slumber, coating the land in ice and snow, raising forth nightmare creatures from the cold ground, appeared in the already coldest regions. It swept across the coldlands, blanketing the land in it's biting cold. People abandoned the ancient towns and cities of Kvalvatch and Hurstbeck in the thousands. Looting and anarchy ruled the streets. The Coldlands were in chaos. Few remained to face the boreal onslaught of the Gaele, as it had become known among the smallfolk.
Some fled east, to what is now known as the Dawn Empire. Some fled north, to the Lands of Endless Summer, where it is ever warm. They founded technological civilisations of wonder in the warm north, forming such companies as the MPP.
The Gaele remained in the Coldlands for five years. Of the million that remained, only a quarter of that number survived the Gaele. Finally, for whatever reason, it pulled back, leaving the Coldlands scarred, but no longer as chillingly cold as they had been under the Gaele. The nightmare creatures it rose remained, as did the plagues it had conjured, but the Coldlands had survived. Once great cities such as Kvalvatch and Hurstbeck were now mere hamlets, towns. Meanwhile, the Dawn Empire and the self-destructive technological civilisation of the Lands of Endless Summer prospered, untouched by the Gaele.
Those that still dwell in the husk that was the Coldlands are bitter, grizzled folk, for they have known plague, destruction, and true cold. They treat outsiders from the Dawn Empire and Lands of Endless Summer harshly. In their eyes, they are exiles. Cowards whom abandoned their homelands.

Re: Defias Minecrafters United!
I thought i'd add a little story plot for the south which could affect the north, but it's also a Faction.
Kingdom of Ca'Sor
A metropolis, the City of Lockvalar was the capital of the Ca'Sor Kingdom, when beset by a mysterious cult, bandits from the forests rained down upon the land. The King was slaughtered and the Queen taken captive. The royal family were decimated with their subjects and the city razed. People fled north into the icy wastes, but the bandits are not satisfied. The threat that faced the ruined kingdom looms over the North. And can the mysterious heir to the throne make it back to see their kingdom risse?

Re: Defias Minecrafters United!
Some information on my own lore, related to the location I've been focussed on creating.
KVALVATCH HOLD
Location - The Coldlands
Faction - House Kvalvatch.
Hostility - Neutral and tentative allies of Hurstbrek. Hostile to the Dawn Empire and M.P.P due to their cowardly exile.
Lore:
The frozen wastes now known only as the Coldlands was once a very different landscape. Rolling pine forests and crisp winter grass covered the land, and the monsters that now plague it were nothing but a distant nightmare in naught but the most skilled seers eyes. The land was not safe, however; the people of the western hills were in constant feuds, split into rival houses that vyed for power. These four houses Kvalvatch, Irskir, Kaor and Marsencir. They all hired and trained their own armies, waging battle against each other.
Then came the Gaele. It came so fast, that half the towns in the region were destroyed within days. From one of these defeats, came a young woman named Sigrid Kvalheim. On her lonesome with naught but a bow and quiver, she brought news to each of the house lords, and by gaining their trust, managed to perform the unthinkable - unite the four houses against each other. While their council convened at the City of Kvalvatch, a sudden blizzard appeared; when it cleared, the cities of the other houses had been destroyed, and terrible frozen monsters were amassing to strike down this last Hold.
The battle was long and hard, fought in a constant icy storm. But with their combined might, and with Sigrid Kvalheim at their lead, they found victory. The cost was heavy, however. Much of the city, including the port, was obliterated, and very few survived the battle. But there was relative peace for a long time, until the new Queen Kvalheim died in her sleep of old age decades later.
Then things began to stir. Kvalvatchian circles began to convene, and members of the old enemies began to disappear. While many had exiled and become hated, those that stayed were forced into the Kvalvatchian House, or found grim fates. The House now fiercely guarded it's Hold, wary of outsiders (save for the nearby port of Hurstbrek) and keep their few soldiers constantly trained for the worst.

Re: Defias Minecrafters United!
The Dawn Empire of the East
Location - Across the Ocean to the East, Dawn Island
Hostility - Friendly but suspicious towards Hurstbek and Kvalvatch, Hostile towards MPP and anyone using high technology
Lore:
With the arrival of the Gaele many of the citizens in the land fled from it across the ocean knowingly leaving many behind,
after a long journey aboard overloaded ships the exiles reached a lush island, warm and full of animals and growth, heaven compared to the frozen wastes they had left.
The ships were turned into lumber for the exiles new homes.
Not long after their arrival the religion of the rising sun grew to become the sole belief among the populace, according to it's priests the warmth and power of the sunrise held the frost at bay and protected the islands from the gaele and all other evil, preaching that keeping to tradition will prevent a new catastroph and exodus, the empire have grown outright hostile to any progress other than what their ancestors used.

The Free port of Hurstbeck.
History.
Apart of the northern kingdom for as long as its people rembember, Hurstbeck won its independance during the civil wars that proceeded the comming of the gaele. Hurstbeck grew from a small fishing town to an important port and the last stop for the exiles during the rout form the homeland. At the hight of the gaele much of the town was raized by a undead horde that blew a hole in the ground and attacked from deep in the earth. To this day the Sorrow hole sits among the ruins of the port. These days only the old town survives but now Hurstbeck has a new function as the trading hub of the world, welcoming all into its walls who come with goods.

The MPP
Location: The Lands of Endless Summer, to the far north of the Coldlands
Hostility - Friendly to Hurstbeck to due trading, neutral with Kvalvatch, yet largely hostile to the Dawn Empire.
Lore:
When the smallfolk fled the Gaele North, they landed upon the Lands of Endless Summer, as it as dubbed, for it's warm climate. They founded a civilisation, the Summer Empire.
Over time, it grew swelled and self-destructive, eventually destroying itself over several rebellions and mad kings.
A few remnants of the Summer Empire are now scattered across the Lands of Eternal Summer, namely MPP, which is one of the few surviving great technological pinnacles of the Summer Empire.

Re: Defias Minecrafters United!
Added tot his server this morning before I went to work. But now it seems I must doa server restart every time I add a new name. So I'm afraid you will have to wait till I return home to be able to restart the server. To avoid Having to restart when ppl are playing all the time if you need white listing I will be doing it in the mornings only and thena reset to avoid roll backing ppl in the evening. Expect tonight of cource I will be a reset to allow the people who have posted their names today. But from tommorw its morning ones only to avoid the roll back problem so people don't lose items.
