This server idea is based off a webseries also called TOME (switch out Minecraft for Magical) created by Kirbopher. You can find the series at New Grounds and more information about its author here ( http://www.chrisniosi.com/ ). I do NOT have permission to use his work YET. I’ve not been able to get an email back from him. Until he does I’ll be using alternate names, like the title, to avoid copyright infringement. Note that everything that is created by me (the names, abilities, etc.) can be changed if needed.
Landscape:
Haven (Sanctuary)
This would be a PvE (players versus environment) area. Like in the original Tome, it would be a social place. But, this is Minecraft, so I think it'd be best to make most of it able to spawn monsters. There would be safe areas set up around this part of the map to ensure some peace. I would like to set it up so that there are more monster spawning and more powerful monsters the farther you go “in” (in relation to Mine Town) Besides that, I would add in a few dungeons and ruins just to make the place interesting. At the very "back" of the area there would be Nether Portal and an End Portal. The nether portal would be for the same mob/social thing. The End portal however will be purely mob oriented though (to kill the Ender Dragon).
Mine Town (Mech City)
A no PVP or PVE zone. This will house the shops, housing/apartments, storage, and some battle courts. Battle courts will be small arenas made for quick battles. I know it’s not QUITE like the show, but I'm not able to do the whole challenger teleport thing. Yet. I've got the economy system and region area for housing planned.
Tangerino (Lavendera)
again, I can't do the whole "teleport into battlegird" thing yet, so this is how I have it set up. There will be multiple areas within this area. Such as: Volcano, Quarry, Plains, Lake, Mountains, etc. to provide a diverse areas to battle. There will be certain areas farther in that will be non PVP so that players can rest. In the back there will be a Nether portal for battles in that map. All areas will be enclosed by glass domes, and I'll try to set it up that you can only get xp inside that area
Classes:
I will be using Heroes, so I can customize abilities, player health, and damage weapons do.
there are 6 classes
Pulgist (Fighter) (punchers, will have powerful short range abilities, medium health/slow hunger, not able to use weapons)
Magus (Spellcasters) (basic long range magic users, low health/fast hunger, not able to use weapons, can be healers, fire based, ice based, lightning based, buff or debuff etc.)
Gladiator (Swordsman) (use swords or other tools as weapons, medium health/hunger, medium range abilities, basic Damage dealer)
Berserkers (Animalistics) ( punchers, few abilities, High health/slow hunger, able to turn into mobs)
Modi-slimers (Morphological) ( mix of debuff/ medium range/ poisonous attacks, low health and medium hunger with high health regeneration)
Mechanized (Mechanical) (long range, medium health and fast hunger, I will try to make it so that they can eat coal)
I have several plugins to facilitate the different classes and sub classes of Tome
First there is Heroes, a highly customizable plugin that allows a player to have a class and a sub class, with multiple levels and variations. So in other words you can be a Magus, and if you wanted to be a variation (for example) Fire Master, I could give the universal ablilities of all Magus to the regular class, then give variation specific abilities to the sub class
Unfortunetly, you are required to BIND abilities to different items to be able to use the quickly. I will be working on a way to hot key this.
I also have a plugin that gives buffs to certain groups, stuff like extra damage, more health, things like that
I also got this neat little plugin for Animalistics, allows them to change into monsters/animals
Character Customization:
As in the show, I will let players have the option of creating their own avatar/abilities. It will also have to be admin approved, which might take 1-2 weeks depending on my work load and help I receive from GMs. It may or may not come at a small (1-5 dollars) price.
I found a mod that will let players customize their characters apperance, but I'm not quite sure how it works. I'll try to make it work. It can give you wings or a snout, make you smaller or bigger, male or female, a tail, etc.
Crafting, building, and collecting resources:
I will not be allowing any of the above AT FIRST. There will be store set up by me that will sell the players weapons, healing potions, furniture to customize their apartment, and other items. SOME recipies will be allowed, I have not decided exactly which ones yet. Off the top of my head, potion stands, bottles, torches, decoration blocks/items, books/cases, and food.
There will be no mining, wood cutting, digging, or building on any of the maps at first. If a player wants to add a building, they will first have to create it (single player creative) and send me screenshots to be approved. Later, I will try to figure out a way to let players be able to do this, without harming the quality of the gameplay.
Death:
I’m going to try and find plugins that allow players NOT to drop their items, as well as respawn at waypoints on the map
Plugins:
So far the main ones are:
Heroes
Hero Chat
GUILDS
Real Store
Vault
Mob health
Mob trigger
Mobs
World Edit
Mob Disguise
Regions
Closing Notes:
I have several more plugins that I am evaluating to make better game play.
I am hoping I can find a way to make this a 24/7 server.
I have not started to create the map, I’m currently trying to get into contact with Fyre UK to help create it.
If anyone wants to help, feel free to contact me.
If you can offer any suggestions, especially on plugins, please contact me.
If you are willing to host this (for free, I do have a plan for VIP and extras to sell, along with character design, but no money right now) PLEASE contact me. We can negotiate terms then.
Edit (4 years later): I am no longer actively trying to create this project. Feel free to use this idea as you will.
A brutal and honest assesment. Guess I can't please everyone. I'm currently working with a certain server to make a test run of this, so I think I'll be making something out of it.
You have a lot of plans and I like the idea, but you need to make some headway with negotiations. Let me know if you get permission to use TOME, since I'm a fan and have an idle 16GB server.
You know the best way to contact Kirb about this is to tweet at him, i've already gotten a few replies from him. i could see if he wouldn't mind letting us use the proper names of items and their names from the actual TOME series. I'd love for there to be a server for this!
Hey, I can't host this amazing server Idea, but I can help create and beta test it though if you want. If you want me on your team, skype me at gildendwarf32, or email me at [email protected]
B0T3X1N, you're the one who "Needs to get back down to earth"! This guy is smart, much smarter than you! He asked for help, and that takes guts. Your just a lonely troll! He already has tons of people who have his back, including me! If dreams are impossible, as you say, then how did America come into existance? How did I get an Internet radio station? At least he isn't afraid to dream!

I tweeted Chris and he should at least view this post soon.

Well, have you given up? Because I could use your help.
