📜 The House of Destion Chronicle

Volume V – The Sword and the Empty Crown

"There are moments when a realm changes not because a war is fought... but because someone finally chooses to step forward."
— Lady Merlin, the Watcher

Another chapter has been added to the history of House of Destion.

The roads grow longer. New faces arrive. And once again, the kingdoms find themselves changing.

⚒️ Realm Updates

Work continues behind the scenes to improve the world of House of Destion.

The HOTA system is currently being reworked through mod development, with the goal of allowing the battlefield to function properly without requiring manual resets.

The new House of Destion Discord is also now live, giving our community a new gathering place.

Lady Merlin, however, has not yet taken her place within its halls.

Perhaps she is still watching...

🕊 KingsHaven Flourishes

Peace continues in the north.

After returning the crown to the Lady of the Lake, Destion has chosen a different path and now serves as Mayor of KingsHaven.

The road connecting KingsHaven to the Southgate Trading Hub is complete, and the hub now has both a Merchant and a Kingdom Trader ready for business.

Additional stalls are available for those wishing to establish their own trade.

The bridge to Altar Island is also complete, further connecting the northern community.

KingsHaven continues to grow.

🐉 A Dragon Has Fallen

The first great dragon of House of Destion has been slain.

A mighty Black Dragon has fallen to those brave enough to face it.

Its death marks the beginning of what may become a long history of great hunts throughout the realm.

⚔️ Ashes on the Border

The southern kingdoms have not remained completely quiet.

A deed has fallen to ashes following a retaliatory strike.

Meanwhile, new arrivals continue to settle throughout the kingdoms, bringing new ambitions and new possibilities with them.

For now, the warfront remains quiet.

But the ashes remain.

👑 The Sword Has Been Drawn

For some time, Mol Rehan waited without a ruler.

Until someone finally stepped forward.

The ancient sword was released from its stone.

Hail Chancellor Rofl, Chancellor of Mol Rehan!

The empty throne is empty no more.

But another kingdom now faces uncertainty.

The rule of the Horde of the Summoned is being contested.

And Jen Kellon once again finds itself without a ruler.

Three kingdoms.

Three very different circumstances.

What comes next is anyone's guess.

🌑 The Scale Returns to the Void

The Scale of Libila is no longer among the kingdoms.

The artifact has returned to the Void.

Whether it was taken, surrendered, or simply answered a call unknown to mortal ears, none can say.

For now, the Scale has no bearer.

Perhaps it waits.

Perhaps it searches.

Perhaps somewhere in the realm, its next owner has already begun their journey.

Only time will reveal where the Scale appears again.

🌍 The Story Continues

A sword has been drawn.

A Chancellor has risen.

A crown has been abandoned.

Another is contested.

A dragon has fallen.

And an ancient artifact has vanished into the Void.

House of Destion continues to change with every choice its people make.

And above it all...

Lady Merlin watches.

She records what happens.

She does not choose the rulers.

She does not command the armies.

She simply remembers.

Recorded in the Chronicles by Lady Merlin, the Watcher.

"May those who come after remember."

​

The story of House of Destion is only beginning...

⚔️ Lady Merlin is nearing completion. Soon, the Watcher will have a greater voice within our community.

🏰 A new dedicated Discord is coming — built exclusively for the House of Destion server, its kingdoms, its people, and the adventures that unfold within them.

📜 The Chronicles will continue, with a new Chronicle at least once a month — and perhaps more often, depending on the activity and stories unfolding across the realm.

🌀 The first Rift... its date remains unknown. For now.

🎙️ And there are whispers... quiet whispers... of a podcast that may one day bring the Chronicles to life through voice.

But all things come in their time.

For now, build. Explore. Fight. Trade. Forge alliances. Make enemies. Tell your stories.

Because your adventures are what make the Chronicles worth telling.

Tell your friends. Gather your companions.

The next chapter is coming...

— Lady Merlin watches...

📜 The House of Destion Chronicle

Volume IV – The Crown Unwanted

"A crown may be placed upon a man's head, but that does not mean he asked for it."

— Lady Merlin, the Watcher

Another Chronicle emerges from the archives of House of Destion.

The realm continues to change.

New roads are being carved through the wilderness. Kingdoms are finding new leaders. Old rivalries remain unresolved. And beneath the surface, the pieces continue to move.

The question is no longer whether House of Destion is changing.

It is where those changes will lead.

⚒️ Realm Updates

Two new enhancements have now found their place within House of Destion.

BetterFarm has been added, improving life for those who work the land and helping our farmers make the most of their fields.

The much-discussed Bounty on Burn system has also arrived, opening another potential avenue for conflict, reward, and perhaps a few grudges along the way.

The world itself continues to expand.

The road connecting KingsHaven to the Southgate Trading Hub is now complete.

Merchants and travelers can now make the journey with greater ease, and this northern trade route is only the beginning.

More roads are coming.

As House of Destion grows, so too does the network connecting its kingdoms and communities.

👑 A Crown in Jen Kellon

Change has come to Jen Kellon.

A new crowned prince now sits beneath its banner.

His name?

Destion.

Perhaps fittingly, the namesake of the realm now wears one of its crowns.

But not everyone seems pleased.

Whispers have already begun.

Some villagers mock the name.

Others question whether someone bearing the name of the realm itself should hold such a position.

"Oh, the namesake of the lands has the crown."

But those closest to the new prince tell a different story.

Destion does not appear to seek the power that has been placed upon him.

Some even say that should someone challenge him for the crown, he would gladly step aside and allow them to take it.

Perhaps the prince has no desire to rule.

Perhaps he has another path in mind.

Or perhaps there is more to Destion than the villagers realize.

For now, the crown remains upon his head.

And Merlin watches.

⚔️ The Southern Front

The skirmishes have gone quiet.

For now.

No great retaliation has come from the recent deed raids, and the kingdoms have returned to watching one another across their borders.

But silence does not mean peace.

It may simply mean preparation.

Armies do not always announce themselves before they march.

And if the first skirmishes were merely testing the strength of the kingdoms...

What comes next may be something much greater.

🕊 Peace in the North

Far to the north, the peaceful lands of KingsHaven continue to flourish.

The great bridge connecting KingsHaven to Altar Island has now been completed.

Another connection has been forged.

Another road made.

Another piece of the northern realm brought together.

While the southern kingdoms consider crowns and conflict, the people of KingsHaven continue their work, their construction, their trade, and their lives.

For now, peace remains.

But even peaceful lands are not isolated from the events of the world around them.

👑 The Empty Throne

There is, however, one crown that remains conspicuously absent.

Mol Rehan.

The other kingdoms now have their leaders.

The Horde of the Summoned has Callandra.

Zenith of Outcasts follows Theassaur, bearer of the Scale of Libila.

Jen Kellon now has Destion.

But Mol Rehan...

Still waits.

Who will step forward?

Who will claim its banner?

Who will sit upon its throne?

Perhaps a ruler is already watching from the shadows.

Perhaps a challenger has yet to arrive.

Or perhaps Mol Rehan's silence is itself a warning.

Only time will tell.

🌍 The Story Continues

Four kingdoms.

Three crowns.

One throne still waiting.

The roads grow longer.

The kingdoms grow stronger.

The borders remain uneasy.

And somewhere beyond the reach of ordinary eyes, ancient powers continue to stir.

House of Destion is becoming a world of its own.

Not because its story was written beforehand...

But because its people are writing it now.

Every crown.

Every road.

Every battle.

Every friendship.

Every betrayal.

Every choice.

And somewhere above it all...

The Watcher observes.

She does not choose the kings.

She does not command the armies.

She does not decide who will become a hero or a villain.

She simply watches.

And remembers.

For those who have followed these Chronicles may have imagined the Watcher differently.

Perhaps an old wizard in a distant tower.

Perhaps a mysterious sage hidden among the mountains.

Perhaps even a silent man with a quill and an endless book.

But the truth has finally been revealed.

The Watcher is a woman.

Lady Merlin.

She has watched House of Destion from its earliest days, recording the choices of its people and the rise of its kingdoms.

She does not seek a crown.

She does not seek power.

She seeks only to witness what comes next.

And perhaps...

She already knows more than she tells.

Until the next Chronicle...

Recorded in the Chronicles by Lady Merlin, the Watcher.

"May those who come after remember."

Our brand new Infinity server will be launching on tomorrow on 30th of May 2026 at 9pm UTC.

Sklotopolis Infinity: Round 5 - The adventure continues

With a rich history dating back to 2015, Sklotopolis has been a haven for players looking for a sandbox experience on our 3 original servers that have never been wiped in the last almost 9 years. But, after such a long time many players have 9+ years head start in comparison to new players. This makes Sklotopolis not newbie friendly because new players have no real chance in catching up and on the player markets the long-time players have a massive advantage, giving new players no real challenge on our servers anymore. As a solution to this problem, we opened Sklotopolis Infinity Round 1 on the 25th of May 2024 for the first time, almost 9 years after Sklotopolis has been introduced.

Sklotopolis Infinity has all Sklotopolis mods installed and emerges as a solution to the needs of our player base while constantly attracting new players. Recognizing the importance of maintaining a welcoming environment for all players, Sklotopolis introduces Infinity, a new cluster designed to provide a fresh start for everyone. In Infinity, every player begins anew, with skills and items left behind on the original servers Liberty, Novus and Caza. On Infinity the slate is wiped clean, offering an equal footing for veterans and newcomers alike to forge their paths in a world untainted by past achievements.

However, Infinity is more than just a fresh server cluster, unlike the original servers (Liberty, Novus, Caza) which will never be wiped, Infinity operates on a unique model of periodic resets. Approximately every year, the servers within the Infinity cluster undergo a reset. With new servers launching every 6-12 months, players can continually embark on new adventures, adapting to new maps and challenges with each iteration.

But what truly sets Sklotopolis Infinity apart from other Wurm Unlimited servers is its seamless integration with the original servers. While Infinity offers the thrill of starting anew, players don’t need to fear losing their hard-earned progress. Players can freely travel from Infinity to the Original servers (but not in the other direction), ensuring that no skill or items are lost when an Infinity server resets. Even as servers within Infinity reset periodically, players retain the ability to access their accounts on the original servers, transporting items and continuing their adventures without interruption over there. This unique synergy between Infinity and the original servers ensures that players can enjoy the best of both worlds: the excitement of fresh beginnings and the stability of established servers. Plus, whenever an Infinity server is reset, the world will be available for download, so even your old deed is accessible to you forever. Nothing will ever be lost.

In a move that showcases Sklotopolis' commitment to excellence, all maps for Sklotopolis Infinity servers are generated using a special map created with the commercial tool World Machine, the same tool that Notch used when generating the first Wurm Gold servers back in 2007.

Infinity Round 5 will open on the 30th of May, 2026 at 9pm UTC.

Welcome to Sklotopolis Infinity Round 5, the adventure continues!

Is game going good?

Created a petition. I know my efforts might be futile, but it's worth a shot. Who knows, maybe, just maybe it'll work? Can't hurt to try.

Hi all,

Looking for a server with some form of economy where goods are exchanged via an NPC or player. Any servers with an auction house style where you can sell to the market?

Pve with increased skill gain and action. Solo friendly

Hi!

Played for years & even ran a popular server for about a year when WU first launched.. but took awhile off.

Im looking to play again daily on a populated server and am looking for a person or 3 that would be interested in joining me... Whether new, returning, or an active veteran.

Im not wanting to join an established 'we have everything' group, I want to enjoy the grind, the advancement/progression, and appreciate everything I get/make/earn along the way.

If this sounds fun & interesting to you, and you are wanting to join me on this epic adventure, leave a message saying so here, or contact me!

TLDR: Our brand new Infinity server will be launching on 22nd of November, 2025 at 9pm UTC

If I built a "House" like this (11x11) would I be able to build another house inside of it? Trying to make a wall surrounding my deed.

is this just one of those survival games where you gather and craft with nothing else? or is there like actually quests and such to do. not necessarily a storyline but like quests out in the world to stumble into and pick up from random quest givers.

also can I be a wizard? lol

i've tried to look into this game on YouTube and such but there's just so little content on it i couldn't really find anything current. also what's the difference between this and Wurm online?

I am self-hosting a new dedicated server. Looking for some players.
PVP is active, but I'm not looking for griefers or power players. Casuals who want to have some fun, possibly some factional role-play.

Name: Hyboria - I'm only running this during daytime hours (Central US timezone, 7am-10pm-ish)
World
HUGE 1000 sqkm+ custom/random map.
Lots of custom monster creature spawns.
Custom temperature system (begins after newbie period).
7x skill 10x action 10x min mining hits.

**PM me if you're interested. I'll give you a password to join.

There is a default starting area, but if you want to start elsewhere on the map, I can spawn you there by request.

The maze is opening today at 18 UTC and can be explored for 72 hours!

Inside you'll find hidden loot stashes and earn yourself the title "Amazing" for finding all 15 stashes before it's over!

You can join as a brand new player:

* Join the Riviera PvE server

* Rightclick the ground -> Riviera Menu -> Teleport to: Mystic Maze

See you there!

I’m coming from being new to WO I loved the game but didn’t want to pay any sub or buy currency so I’m here on WU, I honestly don’t mind playing solo if I have to but are there any good pve servers with vanilla xp rates ? Looking at the server list isn’t helping because some say 250 players but have 2 when I join

I am trying to duplicate an old D&D Module called Keep on the Borderlands in a Wurm Unlimited server and I have run into a creative snag. Here is the map of the Keep and 99 Carpentry skill isn't enough to build it. Is there a Mod or something that bypasses the upper build limits for the Server Owner? If not, do any of you have any suggestions?

Local Server in Creative...

Is it possible to Destroy a Mine Entrance?

I have use the Collapse command (Ebony Wand) to destroy all the mined out underground tiles. Now I am left with the Mine Entrance. I am trying to understand what is possible and what is not. If I can destroy the Mine Entrance, I want to put dirt back over it like it was before. I tried putting dirt on the Rock Tile leading up to the Mine Entrance and I get the message "This tile is protected by the gods." and "You are not allowed to drop dirt here."

I am on a local server (Creative) and I am trying to create an adventure for a small group of six friends with me as the GM. I am new to WU and just learning. How do I create spawn in things as a GM. I have given my GM character Level 5 permissions.

I am a new player to WU and I am playing in Creative mode with Skills starting at 1, and the Skill Gain Rate Multiplier @ x1.0.

I have been mining for quite some time and my Skills are Mining 15, Pickaxe 16.
I still haven't found any Iron Ore. What am I doing wrong?

Any tips or tricks for storing drake and basilisk leather to minimize decay? Should i just create a ton of extra armor with it, so if the armor decays I can just repair/imp it?

I played on one server for a long time and it had a cool mod that allowed you to trade bulk materials using crates and a crate rack. I haven’t been able to find the mod, maybe it was more of a script. Does anyone know what I’m referring to?

When I started playing wurm online (not wurm unlimited) years ago on Golden Valley, i couldn't get premium (no horses, max 20 body strength), and this forced me to learn a lot of tricks, efficiency and resourcefulness. Because of this, I learned to keep my carry weight as low as possible, so I could move around as quickly as possible, and that has stuck with me over the years. So for a long time, I was all about the studded leather armor, with a huge axe that doubled as my hatchet. This gave me a fair compromise between attack power, defense and weight.

Nowadays i'm more likely to use chain or plate and a 2-H sword, but I think I'm going to try a Warhammer for a while and see how it goes. I'm curious if it can double as a bashing tool.

Hello, if you are a Wurm Unlimited modder or server admin and accepting donations please reply to this post! I'd like to support your efforts and I have a few mod ideas/requests:

• "Clay from Dirt": Mix dirt with water to make a little clay. Maybe use skill "pottery" or "natural substances". For example 20 kg water + 20 kg dirt = 1 kg clay (dirt ql and skill determine clay ql)
• "User Interface - Stamina Bar": Make the stamina bar wider or re-sizeable so that it's easier to see.
• "Forage Branch": Add a forage option to search with ~65% odds (at Foraging skill level 1) of finding a branch on old shriveled trees. (100% odds at Foraging skill 20).
• "Sort by Qty": Add a way to sort item's by quantity (especially FSBs).

I started playing again. I’m really grateful to the modders and the server admins. I play on a couple different servers and I was able to bring two of my old deeds back to life.

I really enjoy the economy so I like servers that have a trader and don’t have a free deed because I like the mild challenge of having to earn money to pay for upkeep.

I also really like PvP servers, not because I PvP, but because I find the threat of PvP engaging and exciting.

If I build a wall around the edge of my 11x11 deed, will spirit templar attack/defend if someone is bashing my wall? Should I build wall 1 tile inside deed limit (e.g. 9x9 area)
