LichHeim Server Rules

1. General Conduct & Authority

1. 1

   Respect the Realm

   Toxicity, hate speech, and harassment have no place in the Tenth World. Keep the banter fun and respect your fellow Vikings.

2. 2

   The Word of the Jarls

   Our moderators, the Jarls, and the server admin, the Valdr, maintain order in the realm. If a Jarl asks you to modify a build to save server performance or steps in to settle a dispute, their word is final.

3. 3

   Reporting Issues

   If you suspect foul play, griefing, or exploit usage, do not start a flame war in the chat. Take a screenshot or clip and open a ticket in the Discord at lichsouls.com/discord.

2. Building & Land Management

1. 4

   Spawn Protection

   Do not build any permanent structures, dig trenches, or place portals within immediate sight of the central spawn stones. Leave the sacrificial stones clear for new arrivals and trophy hanging.

2. 5

   Mind the Instance Limit

   Massive terraforming -- like mining huge, unnatural trenches or raising massive pillars of earth -- heavily degrades server performance for everyone connected. Keep terrain modification to a minimum and build with the natural landscape instead of fighting it.

3. 6

   Claiming Land

   Give your neighbors breathing room. Do not build right up against someone else's base, block their access to water, or claim massive tracts of unused land without explicit permission.

3. PvP, Wards & Thievery

1. 7

   Consensual PvP

   Player vs. Player combat is strictly by mutual agreement. Do not toggle PvP on to trick, ambush, or execute players who are just trying to farm or build.

2. 8

   No Thievery

   Stealing resources, gear, or food from another player's chests, smelters, or kilns is strictly prohibited. Treat unwarded boxes on a player's property as off-limits.

3. 9

   Ward Usage

   Use Wards to protect your main bases and private storage. However, do not place Wards maliciously to lock other players out of their own structures, block public roads, or disrupt shared community hubs.

4. Progression & World Bosses

1. 10

   Environmental Awareness

   Be mindful that players progress at different speeds. Do not drag high-tier mobs (like Trolls, Fuling raiding parties, or Abominations) into Meadows or near early-game player bases.

2. 11

   Community Boss Summons

   While you are free to progress at your own pace, consider announcing major boss summons in the Discord. Defeating bosses triggers harder base raids for the entire server, so giving the community a heads-up to reinforce their bases is standard etiquette.
