SoutStone, the great port city of the Southern Quadrant of Cthuliar

 It's been a long time everyone, and I'm sorry for my absense these past weeks, been busy with work and other things. I come back with good news, SouthStone the port city in the south will be growing these next few weeks. It is going to be a large project, but well worth it. You'll find lots to do there once completion has been achieved. SouthStone will no longer be a quaint port town in the middle of the baron sea, it will be a true city, rivaling all others in Hysteria, even the central trade island called spawn and Hillside itself.

Hysteria's Staff

Attention all Hysterians! You may or may not have noticed that we have been short on staff. That is because two of our beloved staff members had to regretfully retire from Hysteria due to school, work, and other factors. Also Eerie_Deary has decided to take a demotion to Consultant due to her inability to login often and manage the server.

Because of this Hysteria is now looking for one new staff member to become Consultant.

The way this works:

• No player is to ask for a staff position!
• Play often and treat others fairly.
• Don't hold grudges against others.
• Be good role models. 
• Follow the no cursing in public chat rule.
• Be a help to the current staff.
• If you are caught hacking you will be disqualified.
• Contribute to the server in a positive manor.
• Be social.
• Keep up with what is happening on our blogs, (www.thenationsofhysteria.enjin.com and this one).

A Consultants powers are as follows:

• essentials.helpop.recieve (can receive messages from players through command /helpop {message})
• essentials.mute (/mute {player})
• factions.managesafezone (can build of destroy safezones, you are not allowed to change zones without admin permission)
• factions.managewarzone (can build of destroy warzones, you are not allowed to change zones without admin permission)
• essentials.kick (/kick {player})
• essentials.time.set (/time {value})
• essentials.afk.kickexempt (will not go afk)
• colorme.sign (can use color codes on signs)
• colorme.chat (make a colors in chat ex. &6&n&lHysteria)
• bukkit.command.toggledownfall (/toggledowfall)
• essentials.hat (/hat)

All future staff will be chosen by the staff unanimously after tests and at least two official all member Skype meetings.

Redstone AutoCrafter!

A mysterious device has just been discovered in the deepest darkest depths of the Dwarven catacombs of Hysteria! 

The Redstone Autocrafter is a device that allows players to craft any object that has a recipe using a Dropper connected to a redstone signal.

First make a "Dropper".

Now get the item you wish to craft and place it in an item frame on the Dropper. In this case we will be Autocrafting a Pumpkin Pie.

Put the ingredients for the item you with to craft into the the Dropper. 

Connect a redstone system to the Dropper.

Pull the lever and you will have a freshly baked Pumpkin pie!

Please look at the Post below for amazing prizes! I will be handing them out to people that email me with the answers by April 5, 2014.

Creative Gates

• 
• Any player can make a Creative gate.

• Gates are made in any shape or size
• The key thing is that it has one diamond block at the bottom
• To link multiple gates together build them out of the same materials.

• Ex. Cobblestone and Diamond Block
• Use a Clock on the Diamond Block to activate the portal.

Visit the portal hub in Hillside village and go to many places!

While in the portal hub tour the tutorial rooms below.

You can find cool things like the servers official Rules room, hall of "Hysterian DragonSlayers" , and much more!

Gates

If you have ever wondered about how the gates at spawn work I am here to show you.

 You can have your very own gates just like the ones at spawn. Here is how:

 First make a Gate frame it can be any size you want.

 Then put the material you want the gate to be made of at the top. (Nether Fence, Fence, Iron Fence, Thin Glass, Iron Blocks, Cobble Walls (mossy or not), and Wool(Any Color).)

Lastly and most importantly place a sign on the frame and label only the first row [gate] the plugin will fill in the rest for you.

Congrats you now have an amazing gate for your base!

• Create gates using Nether Fence, Fence, Iron Fence, Thin Glass, Iron Blocks, Cobble Walls (mossy or not), and Wool(Any Color). 
• Gates are highly protected, preventing duplication and griefing. 
• Only those with permission can use, modify and destroy your gates. 
• Gates open with an animation. 
• Gates can be activated by redstone, with many options.

Dragon Event 3-1-14

Good Day Hysterians! I have brought you pictures of the March 1, 2014 Dragon Event. The picture were provided by Dragontamer18. If you have any screenshots of the event we would love to put them on the blog to show the fun you all had! Please send the pictures to Rocketman_r10, Kryios, or Drewcraft9 on Skype; thank you. Also please take screen shots in future events. :D

It seems zj707 got shot in the face by a player while fighting a dragon! 

Players have been climbing up the outside of the pillars, however I hear that it is safer to dig through the center of them.

PVP was rampant while the Withers were released.

The Withers caught everyone off guard as they descended from a box suspended in the ceiling of the end arena.

Luckily for everyone the Withers were more focused on the Enderman and Dragons then the players.

3-1-14

The Gore and BloodShed!

Hi everyone first off I want to apologize for not posting for the last few weeks life has just been hectic, but I am now on break and can post again! YAY! And now with further ado, I will be talking to you about the BloodShed plugin.

BloodShed is an added aspect to Hysteria that might startle new players the first time they see it. The blood effect is added by placing the redstone breaking effect along with the damage effect. When you get hit this creates the illusion that you or your enemies are bleeding. This can create a more in depth feel for the gruesome side of faction wars. It also give the player that immerse and satisfying feeling when they behead a zombie just to see the blood pour out everywhere. If you don't see this effect then I urge you to go to your video settings right now and turn your animations on, but if for some reason you don't want to see the glorious carnage then turn off the animations.

• 2 hearts of damage makes the entity burst blood.
• 4.5 hearts of damage will make to entity spew out blood constantly for 7 straight seconds. 
• Works on players.
• Works on mobs.
