The Hardcore Chronicles 🔔🌍
Welcome to Aterra, where every month gets its own permanent chapter, its own legends, and usually at least one player who says, “I definitely had a plan.”
Each monthly chapter is called a Chronicle. A Chronicle preserves its approved name, lore, official standings, titles, memorials, finale records, and the world that carried everyone through the month.
The monthly rhythm
- A new Chronicle is prepared for the next calendar month.
- Five complete names and lore packages are generated for review.
- An authorized administrator approves one package.
- Official standings are frozen before finale PvP begins.
- The Last Bell closes the outgoing Chronicle at the legitimate boundary.
- The outgoing world enters the Final Stand, with PvP active for at least eight hours.
- A validated and separately approved replacement world may be installed only after every safety gate passes.
- The completed Chronicle remains part of Aterra’s permanent history.
Important distinction
Approving a Chronicle name does not upload or approve a replacement world. The Chronicle package and the staged world package are separate approvals with separate audit trails. Fancy name first, actual planet later. 🪐
