Before getting into the combat-oriented areas, we'll be covering the central hub of the science on the server, the Creeper Citadel!
The citadel itself is a floating fortress positioned exactly at the center of the server, accessible via a warp platform next to spawn in Central, via the Nether out of the Lily Keep station, and from the main platform of the End of Time during events night.

The island will have many varied uses over the course of future events; but currently, it serves the below primary functions:
-Quick-access NPC vendors and a 'save' point directly at the entrance, making for easy access to potions, food, or material trade-ins
-The Cavern of Science, a massive cave within the island itself that serves as a catalog of all available "science" items (Unique items not usually obtainable in normal play) found across the server, as well as where to obtain them among these new areas.
--Index of The Cavern Here.
-The Post Office, a universal meeting place where you can create a mailbox and leave other players mail! Or Items!
-The Science Workshop, the basement of the Post Office, a gathering area for any science items that need repairing or updating!
-Combat Training, located within the trunk of the large tree on the second Citadel platform. This is an area that allows a beginner-type tutorial on the basic Minecraft mobs, letting you fight weakened versions to acclimatize yourself to the game's combat. Complete all the courses and assemble a decent set of armor and tools!
-Moosemart, a collection of all unique NPC traders on the server, as well as Moosemart's own unique vendors offering various wares for emeralds- it's highly advisable that everyone visit the mart at least once, as it's an incredible resource for fighters and builders alike!
--Index of Moosemart Here.
-Cannon Platform, a special cannon accessible during Events Night that has a shortcut to all the science areas!
-Frank's Hut, a small hut on an equally small floating island that leads to Death's Office.
--Death's Office, manned by Frank while Death is away. All Horsemen Point trades are available here! Click here for a guide on Horsemen Points.
-Horseman Island, an island shared by all 5 of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, used for the hosting and collection of their individual quests.
-The Guild Council Hall, where the Guild Grand Masters meet and offer trades to those who complete each level of a respective Guild!

Full release news post for full details: Here

The natural 'End' game of minecraft. Remember folks, keep inventory is never on in here!

We have two variants of End worlds available:
A static End in Rodinia that is never reset, and has an outer-end rail network maintained by Raegal, for those looking for their own adventure.
Laurasia's end is slightly more.. sciencey. The world itself is reset frequently, all except for the middle island- Because of this, the map for this End has been disabled.
The middle island itself is home to the usual mine-able obsidian towers and end portal, but also to many other towers, to make the outer-end easily accessible and to assist in fighting the Ender Dragon.
In addition, a massive Arena adorns the center to further aid in the dragon fight. Or, to those who are able, the 'Dragon Priest' challenge, which allows you to fight 8 skeletal priests with elemental attacks. These foes increase in power as you progress further through the Horsemen Areas, and drop shards that can be collected and traded for a multitude of prizes!
The End is, as always, available via any End portals around the worlds!

Full release news post for full details: Here
Accessible via a gap in the fence behind the graveyard of Halloween Town on the Lemuria continent, the Lost Woods is a massive, overgrown forest covering what was an ancient kingdom, now overrun with all sorts of strange creatures.

Be prepared for a long haul if you plan on attempting this, as it will not be a short journey. Beyond the main path of the woods, all sorts of hidden treasures wait in the trees....

These unique mobs have chances to drop parts of themselves, which can be collected and used with the vendors within the lodge to trade for various armors and weapons, the quality of which increasing with the rarity of mobs the parts originate from.

The main attraction is the massive storm swirling in the center of the ocean, the Divine Tempest. To access it, you'll need to find a way up to, and then through, the floating island ruin of Laputa, defeat the World Guardian, and find the gate. Once among the clouds, you'll have your choice of gods to fight!

Armor Rating: S-? Rank
Completion Requirements: Lost Woods, Wychwood, Snowhead, Shattered Sands, Shoals of the Departed
Noteworthy Prizes: Elder Artifact - The Mirror
Special Notes: New Game+ Area, see 5th Horsemen Release post. Extra Warning - This chain of events ends with the hardest fight of all science bosses. Prepare diligently.

Scattered under the waves of the Shoals of the Departed, four tests of the mind and body wait for those who think themselves ready to face off against the Elder Gods, the primordial forces of the universe. Defeat all 5 challenges, and then seek the sleepy city beneath the waves...

-Realm of Darkness
Armor Rating: ? Rank
Completion Requirements: Lost Woods, Wychwood, Snowhead, Shattered Sands, Shoals of the Departed, Elder Artifact - The Mirror
Noteworthy Prizes: Dark Realm Armor, Dark Realm Keyblade, Light Realm Keyblade
Special Notes: New Game+ Area, see 5.5th Horsemen Release post.

While a separate dimension on it's own, the only way to enter the dark realm is within the abyssal hole at the center of the sunken ruins of R'lyeh. The Realm of Darkness is the origin of all Heartless across Laurasia; while they may not be much of a threat under the sun, all forms of Heartless are stronger here. Navigate these dark passageways and find the end to be able to obtain some interesting loot!

Fair Warning
While the other areas are of middling or mixed difficulty, this and all other related Horsemen areas are only for those who are confident in their abilities- which is to say, this is end game content. It will be difficult. Everything will want to kill you. Come prepared, have fun!

Horsemen Release 5 - New Game+ Areas
Full release news post for full details: Here
This release differs from the previous 4, in that it was not one specific area released- but 4 new areas released across the four existing Horsemen areas. A new room within the Cavern of Science has also opened, holding specifically the drops from these areas. Be warned, however- these areas are not for the faint of heart, and best attempted after one has managed to fight through the Divine Tempest.

Horsemen Release 5.5 - Science Updates and Rebalancing
Full release news post for full details: Here
This release was a very odd one, grouped together just due to the sheer amount of things that all happened at once. While no actual Horsemen areas were released here, updated and changes did happen across all of the Challenge Areas collectively. Many of the mobs, items, and equipment have been either cleaned up, rebalanced, or both.

If you've done or received any items from the Challenge Areas pre 1.14, it's worth a visit to the Changelog to see if you need to have any items switched out/updated; which can be found Here.

Along with that, a few new areas popped up:

-Laurasia Dragon Priests:
Armor Rating: A-? Rank
Completion Requirements: Lost Woods, Wychwood, Snowhead, Shattered Sands, Shoals of the Departed
Noteworthy Prizes: Elder Dragon Wings
Special Notes: New Game+ Area, see 5.5th Horsemen Release post.

Hidden throughout Laurasia are four elite Dragon Priests, 3 within the oldest of Strongholds, and one whose tomb is concealed entirely by a pyramid of Aztec design. Obtain all 4 masks, and summon their master; a Dragon beyond ancient. Be warned, this will be unlike any normal dragon fight- and there's never the safety net of KeepInventory to rely on here!

-Hardmode Shrines:
Armor Rating: A Rank
Completion Requirements: Lost Woods
Noteworthy Prizes: Hero of the Woods armor
Special Notes: New Game+ Area, see 5.5th Horsemen Release post.

Spread throughout the Lost Woods are four odd, red-sandstone structures; The Forest Shrine, the Dark Shrine, the Phantom Shrine, and the Drowned Shrine. These are advanced challenges aimed at veteran players who have gone through the areas to follow, and are re-visiting the woods for an extra challenge. Be warned, you'll be hard pressed to survive early on!
