Seneca

Server: PvE
Since revision: 4
Founder: Chow_D
Mayors: Chow_D, bobokate12, gdavison

History

The original Seneca was created from the remains of the Brom Township camp of PvE revision 4. Legend has it that WaterSlide, the last to depart the camp on the long walk to the new Brom, presented Chow_D with the keys to the city that was to become Seneca.

Through the hard work and dedication of Chow_D and the residents of Seneca, it became a flourishing town within sight of the mobile spawn baloons of PvE 4.

Setbacks and Hardship

Only a couple of weeks before the map was to be reset, a huge techinical issue caused large parts of the map data to become corrupt. The original Seneca was not spared from the great dataclysm, and was lost forever.

In the aftermath, the residents rallied to the cause, quickly replacing what had been lost with a vibrant new settlement that included a memorial tower, a wheat farm, public food chests, a chicken coop ("The Great Pit of Chicken"), a park, a suggestion board for the new Seneca, and many private buildings. Cake was a popular food during this time.

Present Day

The current version Seneca grew organically from a coalition of PvE residents, immediately after the server became live for the fifth revision of PvE. Under the leadership of UNC_Samurai, a wide road was built from the eastern spawn bridge to a replica of the Seneca Memorial Tower. Known as the East Road, it was from this base that the City of Seneca grew.

The city now includes multiple skyscrapers, an excellent red brick town hall, two parks, a public cane/wheat/melon farm, a bakery that dispenses free bread, a jail for all the creepers, a public mine, and many private dwellings. Due to the proximity from spawn, a Greater Seneca Area has sprung up around the city, with many residences outside of Seneca proper.
