Season 8

Season 8 is an ongoing season for the server of VR, or Villager Rights, started around June 8, 2023. Its centermost town is located in a vast savannah biome. This server currently has two alliance factions: The Farmers Union and the Commonwealth.

## Spawntown

Spawntown is located in a vast savannah biome. It is beside a river like Season 7's spawntown Acirema, and neighbors a mesa biome several blocks south. The town was not primarily supposed to have a mayor, but due to most people being confused, Tim asked if they wanted elections through a poll. Majority voted for Spawntown to become a democracy and so, elections were hosted.

### Spawntown Elections

The elections were officially held on August 28, 2023. A debate was also hosted earlier that month, which unfortunately was not recorded, so they remain lost to time. The candidates were Nicolas\_mcfly, Atomalex, MoonFlower, EzioBubskiII, VamsiCrafter, Ticking\_Clock and Rainfa11. Few days after, Tim announced that the election resulted in a tie vote win between Nick and Atom. It is the first time in the history of VR for a spawntown to have two mayors together.

### The 20 Second Monarchy

On September 17, 2023, Shadow, Deputy Mayor of Spawntown proclaimed himself King of Spawntown. For a few seconds he held this title until mayor Atomalex threatened to kill Shadow, and so the monarchy fell.

### The Head War

The head war was an war that began when a player named Melting joined, and two people, Atom and Raim, wanted his head. After a small struggle, a war broke out officially when Shadow went in to help Melting. The war lasted for a few hours, before Melting was sucessfully killed.

## Places in Season 8

### Aquaria Village

Aquaria Village is an expanding village situated north of spawn, owned by VamsiCrafter77. In spite of having a few houses, the village claims the whole coastline along the Spawn River stretching from a golden multi-beacon pyramid beside Moonflower's base near the Spawn Harbor up until the north end of the Spawn River that leads to a player-owned ocean and the Northwest Canal, for future expansion. It was once a home to an unnamed player who has had their base destroyed by creepers and eventually demolished.

Aquaria itself, the republic territory which the village is under, was involved with the Syndicate-Aquarian War due to conflicts between Vam and the Commonwealth Faction, and as the war eventually concluded, Vam was banned from the server. He then gave rights to his land to Redstonia with a few conditions, and so the residents living in the village were relocated to other places such as Cavianth and Dragonskeep.

Around June 20, VamsiCrafter77 and his friend started making bases. His friend abandoned the project quickly, however Vamsi's structure remained. Eventually it became the home of two villagers who would be the first in Aquaria Village. He later switched his base to an underground base with a secret entrance with a shulker near the Main Street.

### Arcadian Port

This port is built by Zairuko and WonderFool, well-known for the ship built by its banks. Plenty of its buildings were made for storage purposes, and the place is located in front of Aquaria Village, both located in opposite banks of the Spawn River.

### Kitsune Village

Kitsune Village is an elevated village neighbouring between Arcadian Port and New Pottsville, mainly built by Zairuko. It is one of two Japanese-styled villages located across the spawn riverbanks, and the buildings are greatly reminiscent of Japanese architecture. The village is recognized for being constructed with deepslate, oak, and chiseled bookshelves with plentiful touches of bamboo materials.

### Kokoro Village

Kokoro Village is one of two Japanese-style villages in the server, built and owned by Zombie\_piggo. It is notable for being heavily faithful to the styles of traditional Japanese architecture, both in structure and colors, and was resided by its villagers for a good period of time before most of them were relocated to his and Nick's village, and the rest were moved elsewhere. The center where the stalls and the bell meeting place are serve as a shop for concrete, adjacent to a large port and a bee farm. Piggo's former base is also in this village, which can be found by going through Kokoro's road towards a Torii gate containing a nether portal. Additionally, this village is beside a little river that goes between Piggo's cave shop and the Gaming Village that stretches across the heart of a large jungle biome.

At one point, Piggo decided to relocate villagers to another larger place which what became the Kokoro Empire.

### Kokoro Empire

This empire is a revamp of the Kokoro Village made by Zombie\_piggo, initially made to relocate the villagers of Kokoro Village.

### New Pottsville

New Pottsville is a town by FinnTheHuman57, first built in Season 7 and is now recreated on the banks of the Spawn River. The establishments were mostly built in an assortment of dark oak and birch materials while the road is made of brick slabs, and the streets are named after various places in Pennsylvania. There was a controversy over the ownership of the land between Zombie\_piggo and Finn, in which Piggo gave the land to Finn due to him moving to a megabase he was building in a far-away plains biome.

### The Cavianth

The Cavianth is a village made of bamboo and deepslate built around a hill and is situated next to a ravine, and is owned by TheSwordMitch. It initially refers to the library that was constructed first on the hill itself to be Spawntown's public library, in which its state of being unused resulted into the decision to expand the surroundings into a village to curb its isolating appearance. The name originated from the Tagalog word *kawayan*, meaning 'bamboo'.

#### New Mongkok

The village has a few main roads, and on both sides of each road there are stalls and their owners vying for your attention and money.

#### New Birmingham

#### The Mob Farm

The Public Mob and XP Farm was built by VamsiCrafter77 at the start of the season as a place for players to get mob loot while repairing their tools and getting XP.

The design is a simple tower with a dark room spawning platform, the most common mob farm type. It is built high in the sky, with the afk spot at y=163 at the border of the ocean. A ladder allows access to the top.
