Hi, Torp. Or is it Quick? Or is it Chasm? Or is it all of the above?
Either way, hi, and welcome to Mesalia. I’m Michelle, and I’ll be helping you with the whitelisting process.
Before we start, I thought I should help clarify the misconceptions you seem to be having about Mesalia, so that you know what you’re getting yourself into in terms of expectations. You don’t need to know much about Minecraft and its features to be able to RP here. While Minecraft does inspire some of the lore, Mesalia is more about the RP than it is about Minecraft.
For example, some of the mobs that spawn in the game are a part of our lore, but the ones that aren’t in the lore are disabled or just ignored (e.g. creepers and witches). This extends to a lot of features in the game; things like enchanting, potion brewing, and end portals are disabled. We also have our own commands to stop mobs from attacking players so they can type their character’s actions and dialogue. At Mesalia, items are more like stage props, the map is more like a set, and mobs are like set pieces. What your character does is always typed, and is usually not performed in the game. For example, you don’t punch another player when your character punches their character, but you walk when you say your character does. In this sense, everything that’s in the game is more of a representation of what’s in the RP, rather than something you directly interact with.
Sorry if you already knew all of this, but I just wanted to make sure you knew what was going on; no one wants to scare you off with a bunch of foreign concepts and a different system. But if you’re still interested in applying, let us know. And if you’re not interested, then that’s perfectly fine. Do still let us know though, so we know what to do with your application.
