My group of friends have wildly different play styles and focuses, so playing together is often difficult and sporadic. I wanted to create a unique experience, where many different types of players can coexist in one server. So I started working on my own custom modpack. After my initial attempt, I revised and focused my goals, and created AberrantCraft, a server for my community and other creators I frequently interact with.

The primary framework of this pack revolves around the Clans you can create and what you as a collective can accomplish together. A few examples of what is in this modpack are listed below.

Explore unique dimensions and even other planets
Defeat high level bosses
Create elaborate automated factories

build villages with improved villagers

declare raids against other clans (PVP can be toggled on/off)
create a zoo with a multitude of added animals and mythical creatures, from rhinos and orcas to dragons and revived dinosaurs
Tinkers offers all kinds of customization to gear and MK: Ultra adds classes that let you and your friends have a truly unique party experience.
