Fromantown

=Settlement Info= Fromantown, home of excessive torches, is a town that is in production. It's the closest town from the spawn. It was started by Zurkon_Assassin on June 15, 2011. The town consists of the central, resident, market, and harbor district. In estimate, there may be a total of 21 houses total. Supportive contraptions will be made for the residents to use.

=Location= Fromantown is located very close to spawn. In fact, it's the closest town from spawn. To find the settlement, exit the indoor spawn, and take the Al Gothein pathway. Along that pathway is an another connected pathway. You should see a train station near it, along with a sign on fence poles saying "Welcome to Fromantown!" The coordinates to Fromantown are 120 X, 288 Z.

=History= Fromantown lies on once was a hill that blocked the view from Al Gothein to spawn. Zurkon_Assassin decided to remove all the hills within the area so that the landscape would look better. Then on one hill, Zurkon, instead of removing it completely, he, with a little bit of help from saturnv, flattened it out and started making the boundaries and future districts. The next day later, someone in the name of ForgottenKane had built his home on the flattened hill without his knowledge of a settlement to exist there. What wasn't known about the hill was that Kane's first home was within the hill that was griefed (it was empty). Zurkon decided to remove his second home so that he could start the production of Fromantown, but didn't know who it belonged to. Then Kane noticed that his home was removed from existence. Zurkon felt bad and gave a home to Kane free of charge. Today, Fromantown is in construction, where more than a dozen of people reside in it.

=Mining= If you have a home in Fromantown, you may have a mine of your own. Beware, however. There is a railway that some residents have mined on it, damaging the walls and ceiling within. If your mine happens damage the railway, it will be filled with dirt, sand, or gravel. You have been warned!

=Housing= All houses are not restricted to one theme. All houses can look like whatever, but at least put some effort into your house. However, your house cannot be a tower, go over the size limit (marked by cobble floor), or be fancy (since griefers are very active on the server). These regulations always have an affect on you if you wish to live in Fromantown. If you have plan to have features that go over the cobble floor (such as a balcony or window frames), you must ask Zurkon_Assassin for approval. If the feature disturbs other residents, the approval will be denied. To get a house, you must first contact Zurkon_Assassin so that he can verify who is living in Fromantown, along with identification of the house or lot that belongs to one of the residents, then you may choose your lot, and then it's yours, since there is no price on the lots. You cannot have anymore than 1 lot, since the population is rapidly growing.
