What is The Dynasty?
The Corc dynasty is the most prominent kingdom within the Funny Fucker's Universe (name pending). Primarily being a light fantasy mixed with a futuristic cyberpunk world, The Corc Dynasty, or more coloquially referred to as "The Dynasty", has been an extablished power in the world of Minecraftia on the Funny Fucker Server for as long as any denizens remember it to be. Any denizens that are alive, that is.
THE HISTORY
What seems like a millennia ago, a space faring race landed in minecraftia, a hostile, unforgiving planet, covered with hostile creatures and peaceful villages. nothing unassuming about the world seemed to catch their eye.
So using their tools, they created a bastion of safety in multiple places around the world, a centralized vault in the Corc mountaintops, containing any technology that the space faring race would need in case of emergency landing on the planet, and with a fusion reactor to power any backup power banks or technology that would appear there.
They also created a group of bio-engineered war machines to protect the bastions, the warden, and a group of automotons in their image, the ender-man, to make sure the vault stayed powered at all times, and did not faulter.
The power of the war machines tore apart the underground, mixing with the natural magical energy that resided within every being (exp), and created the skulk, a fungal like infection that spreads through untouched, unwarded blocks. ((warded blocks being crafted blocks, then blessed by the earthen god at the time))
The power of the ender-man, on the other hand, seemed to be a lot more than the overworld could handle. The village folk, seeing the dangerous being haunt their homes, created a stronghold to commune with their gods uninterrupted. But when finding the stronghold, the ender-men found themselves drawn to it, pulling them into the realm of the divine through the end-portals, and sealing themselves in. the only ender-men that survive in the overworld remember their original purpose, to protect the vault and tend to the technology they were left .
As time went on, their impact on the planet did not affect its natural order, the mountains found themselves settlers, the Dideans (jee-jan-s), who left offerings at the vault, for their supposed dragon overlords (the vault let out steam from the fusion reactors, and it was assumed that it was smoke from a great dragon, that they named after the earthen god, G'reth)
The increased morale of the dideans from their pleased dragon overlords found themselves to be a major foothold, establishing the Corc Dynasty, a center for trade and commerce for all man.
They not only established themselves as a major city, but they were able to become their own country, essentially. being the center of all trade for the entire region, and a military force to rival every force around them simultaneously.
As time went on, Corc Dynasty grew greater and greater, and decided to challenge the great dragon themselves. With an army large enough to populate a small country, general Furgus Withers I and Queen Amanda IVth lead their army to the foot of the great cave, and plunged themselves in, hoping to return home with a skull for their mantlepiece.
But what they found was greater than that. greater than them.
They saw a cage. with a singular blue flame. Encapsulated by it, some witnesses to the event say they could feel the essense of their soul glow, and the door to the vault heaved open. Inside was a treasure trove of technology, completely alien to them, and a large group of Ender-men, tending to the technology and ensuring that it was functional.
After some time, the army returned to the dynasty with pieces of this new technology, they took the greatest minds of their generation and experimented with it. They found out how important it was, this blessing from their new Gods.
Time moves on, and the population of the dynasty balloons into a center of trade and commerce for the entirety of minecraftia. Some merchantiles grew to be the largest, constructing cloud shavingly tall buildings, dubbed to be the cloud district, a higher end of the merchantile district.
The dynasty, greedy within its powers, and determined not to let the technology leave its limits, creates a "techno-null" field, far enough from the limits of the dynasty that its denizens wouldn't know, but close enough that if one were to attempt to escape with secret tech, it would be vaporized, as long as it was running.
This caused the members of the black market to create "de-construction factories", where they would take technology that was developed within the limits of the Dynasty, and re-construct it on the other side of the field, allowing them to assist other towns and villages, and escape with the tech.
