The Undertaking: Origins [RP][Factions][24/7][US-East]
other tags: [Story-driven][PvP/PvE][whitelist][Events]

Time has passed, many have died, and much has been lost. We're no longer at the top of the pyramid; no longer the rulers of this world. Most of us have been deprived from what we hold most dear. We stride day to day to survive, to find some sustenance, something to hold onto, something to go on...
Us, Humans, we've been known for our inner resilience,to triumph when all odds are against us. We can't just stand idle while our world withers away... There is much history to be written about us. Much more deeds to be done. We WILL prevail! We WILL make our stand! Are you ready? Are you ready to take back what's rightfully yours?
Welcome, to a new beginning...


OVERVIEW
The server is meant to be Roleplay oriented, event/story driven, and faction based. however, you're not required to join a faction; as of right now there aren't any events you can't participate in if you're not in a faction. So when you join you're welcome to go out on your own, buddy up with someone, or join a faction (or eventually do so). Just keep in mind that joining a faction might give you a better sense of belonging than if you were to be out on your own. There will be server sponsored events for everyone to participate in. And lastly, there will a server story that will be updated regularly (when there is enough content to be added). A story that you, the player, shapes up. We'll keep an eye out for things that occur in the server and we'll base off our writing off of those events. It's up to you if your character becomes a legend, or just another unknown casualty.


SERVER INFO
IP Address: theundertaking.pwnz.org
default port

Server Restarts: Server will be restarted to free up clogged up memory and reduce the chances of lag spikes at least once a day. Server announcements will be made 15 minutes in advance. Keep in mind this is a server restart, not a reset (where stuff gets wiped).


RULES
1. No breaking into or raiding bases (safehouses, camps, outposts, settlements...etc.). If you're on a loot run and come accross a player built base (barricaded, wooden walls, paint on walls, notes saying this is someone's base, spiffo on the floor,...etc. ) then carry on. It's very annoying to build your base only to have it ransacked when you're logged off (a little unfair since you're not there to defend it, don't you think?). There will be a fixed time for when you're able to raid player bases (so keep note of their locations). Check the events section for more info.

2. No griefing. This primarily means no destroying walls unless you building your base. So if you're trying to enter a building, you'll have to go through the doors (if they're locked you can break em) or windows (if they're barricaded you can tear em down).

3. If you're going to use the global chat, keep messages related to either the server or the game (it's preferable that you talk in character though. You can assume it to be a radio of some sort. But its fine to use it to get to people and or talk to admins if you have a question or something. Saying hi to others doesn't hurt either). If you're talking about anything else you'll get a warning, if you continue, you'll be kicked, if you continue after that you'll be banned. In local chat however you're expected to talk in character. It's a good idea you come up with some sort of back-story for your character. You might find yourself talking by a campfire with a stranger you just rescued from a horde ;)

4. you might find random notebooks written into throughout the server map. These are meant to enhance your experience in the server. And learn more about the back-story, its characters, locations/factions. So please don't take these with you. After you done reading them, put em back where you found them for others to see.

As of right now, those are the only rules, let's hope we can keep it that way. These rules are all meant to protect every player's experience in the server. So if you catch someone breaking any of them, report them, tell an admin ASAP. If there aren't any admins online, take a screenshot (by pressing your F12) and post it here, describing how and what rule they broke (you should take screenshots of people breaking rules even if admins are online). Help us make this a server that everyone can enjoy. Breaking rules No. 1 or 2 will get your account instantly banned.


HOW TO JOIN
The guideline for picking your server username (will display above your character's head) is very simple; choose either:
- a first and last name (ex. Jason Booney | Joe Smith. Doesn't have to be your real name ofc).
- nickname (ex. lil J).
- a roleplay based professions (ex. Lone Survivor | Farmer).
No numbers or symbols (e.g. punctuation, underscore, slash...etc.).

* keep in mind that the whitelist isn't updated until the server restarts. So after you request to be added, expect to be able to play the the next day or so.

You can simply post here the username you wish to play with. Your default password will be "password" (without the quotation marks). Which you can change (and should) in-game. If it fits the guideline presented above I'll add you. Make sure you read the rules first.

If you're interested in joining the server please do check out the official post HERE[theindiestone.com] for more information such as events, the factions, how to join or make one, read the server lore (RP story), petition a ban... etc.

@Monoxide: Please post your desired username here, so the Admin can grant you access to the server. Likely early on tomorrow, just provide the information and wait awhile. Please do read the rules and look here for more detailed information about the server:
