Paradigm Realms
Give every player a permanent place to call home, while keeping the world outside fresh and full of adventure.
Paradigm Realms is a server-side mod for creating protected personal realms from configurable presets, alongside a shared Wilds world designed for exploration and periodic resets.
Players do not need Paradigm Realms installed on their client.

Your own little realm
Every player can create their own protected realm, a permanent space for building, storage, farms, machines, or anything else they would rather not lose during an exploration-world reset.
Realms include:
- Owners, members, and visitors
- Public or private access
- Invitations and member management
- Safe teleportation
- Persistent spawn points
- Protection from unauthorized building and interaction
Keep it private, invite your friends, or open it for visitors. Your realm, your rules :3
Realm presets
New realms are created from configurable server-defined presets.
Servers can use built-in starter layouts or import their own islands, plots, platforms, and bases.
Supported import formats include:
- Sponge
.schem - Legacy WorldEdit/MCEdit
.schematic - Litematica
.litematic - Vanilla structure
.nbt
Imported presets are validated before use, keeping placement contained within the assigned realm and preventing unsafe content from slipping through.
The Wilds
The Wilds are a shared world made for exploration, resources, structures, mobs, and temporary adventures.
Unlike personal realms, the Wilds can be regenerated without affecting permanent player bases.
This makes Paradigm Realms a natural fit for:
- Survival servers
- Cobblemon servers
- Large modpacks
- Technical servers
- Community SMPs
- Servers with renewable resource worlds
Build safely at home, then wander off into the Wilds and cause problems responsibly.
Built-in protection
Realm boundaries and access rules are enforced directly by the server.
Protection covers common interactions such as:
- Breaking and placing blocks
- Containers and buckets
- Entity interactions
- Explosions
- Pistons crossing realm boundaries
- Unauthorized entry into private realms
Administrators can use an explicit session-only bypass when maintenance is required.
Optional Paradigm integration
When Paradigm is installed, Paradigm Realms can integrate with its:
- Permission API
- Message formatting
- Placeholder API
Paradigm is completely optional. Paradigm Realms also works as a standalone mod.
Server-side only
Players do not need Paradigm Realms installed client-side.
They only need the normal mods required by the server or modpack. Paradigm Realms does not add custom client-side blocks, items, screens, keybinds, or networking requirements.
Planned
- More built-in realm presets
- Realm expansion
- Additional Wilds generation profiles
