3.0 Conflict, PvP & Griefing

Liora supports player conflict, rivalry, and territorial competition.

Destruction and warfare must still respect structural protections.

3.1 PvP Policy

PvP is allowed.

Players may engage in combat in wilderness and during town or nation conflicts.

Looting from PvP is permitted unless restricted by plugins.

Repeated behavior that crosses into targeted harassment or attempts to drive a player off the server may result in staff intervention.

Keep conflict in game. Do not make it personal.

3.2 Town Claims

Town claiming must follow structural fairness rules.

Towns may not:

Claim block to prevent natural expansion
Create hollow claims
Create disconnected claim arms
Claim small blocking gaps between towns
Create siege claims purely to restrict growth

Town warfare should occur through diplomacy, economy, and approved mechanics.

Griefing within 5 chunks of a player claim is prohibited.

Damage will be rolled back.

3.4 Wilderness Infrastructure

The following are protected:

Permission from the owner or original builder overrides this restriction.

4.0 Governance Philosophy

Liora is built on player governance.

Towns and Nations are encouraged to:

Form alliances
Create trade agreements
Wage economic wars
Control territory
Establish political identity

Conflict is allowed. Chaos is not.

Play hard. Play fair.
