Children of Athena

## Banner

Children of Athena (abbreviated as CoA) was a building oriented faction that started on March 1st, 2020 formed by Wolf123231, MikeyNoodles and Gaxxor with the intent of having fun together on the server and make some monstrous builds, alongside meeting newer people, and set a goal of becoming some of the best builders on the server.

## Bases

### Savannah

After the faction was founded, the three started building on a base in a convenient location, that will have come back to bite them in the ass later. For the time being though, the base was being expanded day by day, new farms being added and new builds added for decoration and as housing. Eventually, though, the base was discovered on June 3rd, 2020 by, most notably, The Chadlets. The convenience of the location came at a price, being far too close to spawn and too close to a major axis highway. The base was blown up completely, and unsurprisingly, was left in ruins. Unable to continue living there with the coordinates exposed, they made a unanimous decision to leave the base and blow the rest of it up and search for a new place to call home, away from danger and away from spawn, and the highways.

### The Parthenon

During this time, CoA started and almost completed work on the Parthenon, a perfect 1 block to 1 meter replica of the famous landmark in Greece. Originally meant to be a meeting place of various clans, after the base was griefed it became a safe haven from spawn and a decent place to trade. Many allies and others have visited the griefed base and some have even found the Parthenon, those that did leave signs of adoration and appreciation.

### Moss City

Eventually CoA found a new base very far away and started Moss City on an island, with the building theme of "ancient seaport." The base consisted of huge wooden ships, multiple working lighthouses, a sailors bar, and of course the obligatory farms and falling anchor traps. It was at this time that CoA started had enough resources to build max level farms and were able to really generate blockgame wealth. This was the period where Snylon became a mod on the trading discords and CoA started a group shop on Purity Trading Hub, Agora Trading Co. (Agora is a greek work for the city marketplace.)

Eventually the coordinates to Moss City were compromised by one of the members, who was since kicked. The base was found, again, by Tarq, who now has a knack of finding our bases probably, who did not grief the base but due to coordinates being exposed as we do not know to whom the kicked member leaked to, CoA decided to move again for a third time.

## Members

The three original founders, Mikey, Wolf and Gaxxor had started building on the first of their bases. A few days later, thrashketchum joined the faction and quickly rose through the ranks. A few weeks go by, and Gaxxor leaves the faction. Around a month after thrash joined, two new members were added to the faction; Aleaiactaest10 and Ditto. Alea met Wolf through trades and was invited a while after, and dragged Ditto in with him. Together, the entire group shifted their focus on another project far away from their base, until it was griefed. The Aleaiactaest10 account turned out to be shared between two players, and when the main account user on purity got their own account, serverwise, became known as Snylon. More players flocked over after the base and faction had become more established, and those who joined include Opular, Samonites, Thrasher and Fishcultist.

Eventually, some members were moved to "inactive" status while still other well known players were joining, including EJ, Lacksal, and others. CoA had members that span almost every timezone and there was always at least one member online at any time of the day or night. Having membership span timezones can sometimes make group decisions difficult, but CoA was still proud to make decisions democratically, with all members having equal voting power.

Faction seem to got disbanded around December 2020.
