Haven

Haven was a sanctuary under the banner of Falcrest during Season 4 of CrocMC. It was established shortly before the August War when the Haven Accords were implemented by Nick into server law.

Overview
Corsair had ambitions to become the leader of a powerful group following his time at Alzaria and solitude at Thin Slice. He thought back to his time in Grainplains during Season 1.5 and decided that another sanctuary was needed in CrocMC. Corsair formed the group which would become known as Falcrest in order to help manifest his project. Corsair wrote the treaty which would become the Haven Accords and presented it to Nick, who quickly established the accords as law.

Timeline
Corsair arrived on a patch of plains near spawn which he considered suitable for the construction of Haven. The first building to be erected was the Commons House, which served as an arbiter's office as well as a guest hangout area. Corsair fitted the upstairs area with temporary apartments for later arrivals.

After finishing the Commons House, Corsair began work on Haven Boulevard, a kilometer-long highway which would connect downtown Haven to spawn in the overworld. Sil was the first to arrive in Haven after Corsair, and he stayed temporarily and departed to fight for Neo-Nordic in the August War. Tim and Splayhi would join soon afterwards, and Tim would contribute to Haven by augmenting the highway, changing the materials of the road and adding flora along the path. Tim would go on to build a large apartment complex near the Commons House.Potato joined the base and built one of his many famous "Indian caves", in which he made a burrow into the ground and outfitted the cave into a small apartment. Myxxo arrived later and built her own house. A community bank was built to house items to be used to further the base's construction.

When Corsair began building a public brewery as another hangout for the sanctuary, tragedy struck the group. While no Falcrest member was online, PlagueKnight joined the game and burned several Haven buildings completely, including the apartment complex and the community bank, as well as several player houses in the area. Myxxo was the first to discover the attack, but Plague had left the scene and left signs framing MythBlood and several others as the culprit, but Falcrest did not give in to the illusion. Plague also left a sign threatening to grief the Citadel of Phantoms, Corsair's largest vanity project and home to Season 4's dragon egg. It would not be until several weeks after the grief when Plague was discovered to be the arson.

Base progress slowed tremendously after the grief. Several members of Falcrest were admins and dedicated much of their time to observing the August War. Though the community bank was rebuilt, the multitude of items stored there could not be recovered. Tim had planned to build a giant trading hall by leveling out a nearby hill, but the project was never finished.

Corsair left the server sometime in early September, leaving Falcrest without a leader. Corsair left the project in the hands of Tim and Myxxo, both of whom were admins and were constantly busy observing player activities. A series of assaults on Haven by griefers and hackers followed, and the group disbanded in late September or early October.

Legacy
Haven became a beacon of hope for many players seeking to escape the violence of the August War and the hit system. Many players from across the server visited the base during its progress. Haven was filmed tremendously for Season 4's Croc ad, with footage originating from both before and after Plague's grief.

To date, no other base has been sanctioned under the Haven Accords, and many consider Haven to be a failed prototype of modern sanctuaries in CrocMC.
