## QUICK ANSWER

Mysterria is a Lord of the Mysteries Minecraft server. The Beyonder system runs on the server through our own plugin, so you join with an ordinary Minecraft client: no mod, no modpack. Connect to mc.mysterria.net with Java 26.2, or with Bedrock through Geyser.

## A server, not a mod

Lord of the Mysteries (诡秘之主, LOTM) is a web novel by Cuttlefish That Loves Diving. Its official English title is now Lord of Mysteries (LOM), and its sequel is Circle of Inevitability (COI). Mysterria brings their Beyonder power system to Minecraft as a multiplayer server.

Everything runs on the server, through our own plugin, the Circle of Imagination. You do not install a mod or a modpack: add the server, accept the resource pack and play. The optional COI Client mod adds visual effects, but nothing in the game needs it.

## What from the novels is in the game

- All 22 Beyonder Pathways, each from Sequence 9 to Sequence 0, with every ability.
- Potions brewed from formulas and ingredients, and digested by acting the role.
- Rituals, Spirituality and Madness: push too hard and you lose control.
- The Boons of Circle of Inevitability: a Sequence an Outer God lends you, raised from 9 to 5 beside your own Pathway.
- High Sequence seats: each Pathway holds at most 18 Saints, 9 Angels, 3 Archangels and one Deity at a time.
- One shared world with towns, nations, an economy and epochs that start the race again.

## Mods and this server

Lord of the Mysteries mods for Minecraft exist for single-player and modded worlds. You install them yourself, and everyone you play with needs the same mods.

Mysterria is one shared world instead: every Beyonder you meet is another player, high seats are limited, and there are towns, wars, staff and events. It works with an ordinary client, so friends can join in minutes.

## How to start

1. Open Minecraft Java Edition 26.2 (or Bedrock), go to Multiplayer and add the server mc.mysterria.net.
2. Join, accept the resource pack and choose Mysteries in the lobby.
3. Link your account with the verification code from your profile on this site.
4. Pick your first Pathway and brew your Sequence 9 potion.

**USEFUL TIP** Free to play. Store purchases pay for hosting and give no combat power or Sequence progress.
