Stairway to Heaven

Stairway to Heaven was a civilization identified by the staircase leading up to a multi-tiered skybase. They were one of the slowest civilizations when it came to progression, with most members not really focused on gearing up in particular. A lot of unintentional competition between classes was common here, the most infamous one being the blacksmith conflict. This was likely due to the fact that the civ was right next to a spawnpoint.


Stairway to Heaven would be the first civilization to successfully declare a conflict ticket to kill one of its members, Whispering_Sun.

History

Description of the nation's history.

Economy

In the early sessions when no civ had potatoes yet, Tender_Aether got a potato but it got destroyed. (eventually got a potato from Metro City)

Stairway to Heaven would also have only one person kitted in iron gear, and the rest would be naked during the time the rest of the world got iron gear. And once the rest of the world got diamond gear, the civ would finally have a few of its members in iron gear.

The only valuable thing Stairway to Heaven had was perhaps the 64 spider eyes their healer Starlit_Spark had procurred through a trade with another civ. Stairway to Heaven would be the only civ to have endstone and an enchanted apple (which was lost soon after!).

Government

Dreaded_Dust would be the only leader, however, most citizens directed themselves. There was barely any managing needed from the leader in the first place. Perhaps this is why when Dreaded_Dust would attempt to exile members or exercise their authority, most would not even listen or take them serious.

Culture

The first thing that made the civ what it is today, construction of the Stairway S1, its earliest version. Built by Waking_Horizon.

Much to the dismay of many, they had an odd fondness for egging people.
