Welcome to the Uncharted Islands where the only monarchical authority on the island is the one you and your peers create. This RP server is an 18+ server, does not cater to the instant gratification crowd, and will require time and effort if you have it in your mind to establish yourself as the ruling faction. We are also a whitelisting server to assist in keeping with the highest quality of role play.
***Admin Note - 3/27/2016***
I would like to emphasize to those checking out the server that the server is still new meaning we are currently a low population server. We are looking for players who understand 'you get what you put into it' and want to help build our following with the larger picture in mind. If the likelihood of you playing solo for a while during our build up phase isn't your cup of tea, then you're welcome to check us out at a later time.

Our Enjin page will be the primary platform for the forums. But we're looking for a graphics designer to assist our coder in creating an actual website. If you're interested after reading the rest of this thread, please get in touch with me directly.
LORE
The current year is 1019 on an island off the mainlands of the Byzantine Empire. This island does not come prefabricated with any lore. The only lore that exists is the one you bring to it through your character and the interaction you have with others. As the server progresses, the community may come together and name the island.
SERVER SETTINGS
IP: 172.245.225.114:28040
For those not familiar with whitelisting: If you attempt to connect to the server before your SteamID is added to the approved access list in the database, you will receive a notice stating your account is banned. This is working as intended until your account is enabled.
Server settings are set to make it difficult to master your skills. To prevent a flooding of goods into the economy and the need to have 5 or more warehouses filled to the brim with stuff you can't unload, crafting and breeding ticks have been adjusted.
The current server settings are as follows:
- 1x skill multiplier;
- 5 minute crafting / fuel burning ticks;
- 10 hour breeding ticks;
- 8 hour day/night cycles (4 hrs of day / 4 hrs of night);
- 3 hour plant growth cycles;
- 100 Animals;
- No Decay;
- No Judgement Hour;
- 3000 skill cap (may be adjusted later as the population expands);
- One character per account;
- Coin based economy;
- 32 slots (will expand as needed).
To help enhance the role play on the server, BasilMods (http://lifeisfeudal.com/forum/basilmod-pack-t14509/) have been enabled. The server is currently running the following mods:
- Ravens - Enables 'carrier pigeons';
- Rest Zones - Enabled for server-wide tournaments for instant healing abilities to ensure participants can participate in the next event without delay;
- Safe Zone - Surrounds the GM operated NPC settlement to provide new LiF players a safe haven to learn without risk.
- Battlegrounds - Massive fights without the alignment penalty;
-
Heraldry - Allows custom graphics content for flags, shields and armor(Mod being implemented by LiF Developers); - NPCs - They don't really do much except stand there and wave at you. But it'll at least make the world feel a bit more populated;
- Bounty Hunter - Place bounties on the heads of the criminals on the island;
- Cartographer - Create your own maps and exchange them with others.
OTHER
There will be one GM operated settlement which will be declared neutral against all conflict to enable the community to have a location for island wide tournaments, for new LiF players to learn without risk, market days, supply shipments once certain server resources become depleted, and a neutral ground for negotiations between island factions. These roles may be further expanded as the need for other services become apparent.
