Hello,
I'm Daniel, 22 years old from Norway.

I've been working on servers since the Alpha stage of Minecraft. I've ran over 10 servers and helped develop quite a few roleplay servers. I've decided to create a new Minecraft server based on the Elder Scrolls game.

Project Introduction:

Resource pack:
The server will consist of a custom server resource pack that will include all the sounds heard in the Elder Scrolls. Most of the weaponry and other items found will be also painted and ported. I'm currently working on this stage and i'm making an efficient amount of progress.

Questing:
The questing system will be based on a questing plugin where we will attempt our best to port most of the quests possible. The quests might have a slight twist.

Skills/Levelling:
We will import some of the possible skills into the game and extra ones. Here is a list of the skills fully developed and maintained so far. The levelling system has been fully setup already.

Agility, Cooking, Combat, Crafting, Defence, Excavation, Farming, Woodworking, Mining, Archery, Smithing and Woodcutting.

Each skill has to be levelled up for the player to gain access to new perks or abilities. Players are also required to have a specific level to use a specific item. For example a combat level of 50 is required for a player to be able to use daedric weaponry. Level 20 archery is required for a player to be able to throw axes or shoot multiple shots with a bow. A level of 40 woodcutting is required to cut Yew wood.

There is also an overall level placed on every players name. Veteran rank is gained at level 50.

Worlds:
So far we've decided to make 3 worlds.

World1: This world is currently underconstruction with cities and quests. A player is unable to build in this world but is able to break certain blocks which will automatically regenerate. This includes ores and wood.

World2: This world is also underconstruction and will allow players to build. All builds are to maintain a medieval/fantasy design and will be constantly moderated.

World3: This world is underconstruction and will allow players to play mini-games, both single player and multiplayer minigames. Each mini-game will have achievements and badges that can be earned by players.

Ranks:
The ranking system is still being developed. What players can be sure of is that there is no requirement to donate or pay to play. All ranks will be achievable in game with no issues. That is our plan so far. The game will be free to play forever.

PVP:
There will be a player versus player system which will be available in a seperate world most probably. The system hasn't been decided yet but there will be a carefully designed PVP system.

PVM/Dungeons:
Players will be able to complete dungeons together in teams. Dungeons will consist of both bosses and extra strong enemies. This will be one of the best parts of the server.

Magics:
There will be customly designed wand which players may use to cast spells. Spells will be divided into different parts including healing, destruction and summoning. Players may summon mobs to fight for them. Each spells will require runes and have a cool-down time. Players may craft runes to cast spells.

Economy:
Money can be earned from completing dungeons, killing mobs, killing players in Cyrodiil, quests and etc.

There will be shops set around the capital cities which will allow players to buy and sell things. There will also be markets where players can purchase their own shops to buy and sell from.

Advertisement/Players:
We're looking for mature players above the age of 15. The minecraft player-base currently consists of players around the age of 12. I've been able to confirm this because of the last couple of servers i've created.

Playing on this server will not be simple because a player must understand the lore and learn how to play.

We're depending on you, the players to advertise by asking your friends or family to join.

We're going to setup an advertisement system and possible pay to be placed first on websites but there will most likely be a whitelisting system.

The maximum amount of players will be set at a 100 for a start.

Server Specifications:
The server we've purchased is a dedicated 32 GB ram server with 1 gb/bit uplink. The server is intel based and is in the United States. We are purchasing seperate IP's and DNS so that players all around the world can join without any lag. We're using a RAMDISK system and MYSQL which allows the server to send and recieve information way quicker than a SSD can handle. RAMDISK would mean using the ram to create a flash memory that will be synched overtime into the server. We can handle over 5 worlds with a 100 players and a large amount of plugins without any sign of lag.

Opening:
We will open quite a few beta versions for testing quite soon. We can't give an exact date but extremely soon hopefully.



How you can help:

We're looking for developers who can come up with ideas, design texture packs, or be able to create/edit plugins for the server. We're also looking for players who can design websites

If you think you're fit to do the following or any of them please send me a message as soon as possible.

Helping will give the player immediate access to the server with the developer rank which is a part of the staff system.

Note: We have no affiliation with the Elder Scrolls Online game. We're just recreating this as a server project.

There, I just made myself a new account. Minecrafter3001 is a lame name and it is abandoned.

Remember me elfen, I am here to help.

Preferably with building. There is a ton to build and I have played Oblivion and Skyrim a ton so I know my way around Tamriel.
