🎮 What Makes Realm Special?

Create Your realm

Form a realm with friends and establish yourself as a major power on your server. Build a hierarchy from common villagers to powerful officers and a supreme king. Invite players, manage ranks, and grow your influence across the world.

Claim & Defend Territory

Mark chunks as your own to protect your builds, resources, and settlements. Advanced claim protection prevents griefing and unauthorized interactions. Form alliances with neighboring realms for mutual defense, or declare bitter enemies and prepare for conflict.

Epic Large-Scale PVP Battles

Declare war on rival realms in dramatic, point-based battles. Teams of attackers and defenders clash as chunk captures, eliminations, and strategic point systems determine victory. Real-time battle HUD keeps all players engaged and aware of the fight's progression.

Survive Coordinated PVE Invasions

Experience dynamic PvE invasions where waves of progressively stronger mobs assault your realm. Coordinate with your realm members to survive, defend your territory, and ultimately crush the invaders. Invasions test teamwork, strategy, and preparation.

Diplomatic Relations

Master politics by forming alliances with other realms. Send alliance requests, negotiate peace, or declare enemies. Diplomacy shapes the power balance on your server, creating emergent stories and political intrigue.

Fully Customizable

Every aspect of Realm is configurable without restarting your server. Adjust timings, difficulty, colors, and messages on the fly. Your server, your rules.

⚙️ Three Powerful Modules

🏰 Realm Module

The heart of the plugin. Create realms, manage members, claim territories, build alliances, communicate across your realm, teleport to your home, and track progression with a leveling system.

🗡️ Invasion Module

Face dynamic mob invasions that test your defenses. Waves of increasingly powerful mobs assault your claimed territories. Coordinate with your realm members to repel the invasion and earn bragging rights.

⚔️ Battle Module

Declare war on rival realms in intense point-based combat. Capture enemy chunks and eliminate rivals to reach 100 points first. Command your forces, defend your territory, and claim victory.

🚀 The Complete Experience

Realm seamlessly integrates three game mechanics that work together to create an engaging, competitive multiplayer experience:

1. Build Your realm - Grow your realm, recruit players, establish hierarchies, and claim territory
2. Defend Against Invasions - Work together to survive waves of mob attacks that test your defenses
3. Wage Epic Wars - Battle rival realms for dominance, capture chunks, and claim victory

Every feature is designed to encourage player cooperation, competition, and emergent stories. Whether it's political maneuvering through alliances, clutch defensive moments during invasions, or the chaos of large-scale battles, Realm keeps your server exciting.
