Ravenkraft is a long-standing Minecraft community, established in 2011, focused on semi-vanilla gameplay, collaborative city-building, and interconnected transit networks. We run two live servers — '''[[Worlds|Ravenkraft Nations]]''', the permanent survival world where cities grow and rail lines expand, and the '''[[Worlds|RVNK Event Server]]''', a rotating venue for modpacks, seasonal events, and experiments. Over a decade of archived worlds from 2011–2022 lives on through the [[Arcology|RVNK Arcology]]. This wiki is a living record of the history, cities, and players that have made Ravenkraft what it is.

== The World ==

=== Cities & Settlements ===
[[Bankrekka]] is home to dozens of player-built settlements, from the sprawling capital Ravenport to distant frontier outposts.

* [[Cities]] — 72 settlements with coordinates and map links
* [[Landmarks]] — Natural features, dimension portals, and community attractions
* [[Nether Express]] — The nether highway network that ties the world together

=== Servers & Worlds ===
* [[Worlds]] — Both live servers and over a decade of history via the [[Arcology|RVNK Arcology]]

== Community ==

* [[Players]] — Notable players who have shaped Ravenkraft across every era
* [[Events]] — Upcoming and past in-game events

* [[Patreon]] — Supporters who help keep the servers online

== Lore ==

Community stories, traditions, and in-world history that have built up over the years.

* [[Cheese Toasty Day]] — The holiday Wizardofire accidentally invented
* [[Shadowmelt]] — The server's mythical mascot

== History ==

Ravenkraft has been running — with a few storied hiatuses — since 2011. What started as an anarchy experiment became one of the longest-running community-focused survival servers: builders, transit nerds and world-builders.  We will soon be embarking upon our RPG Journey with the help the in-progress quests and lore plugins.
