Northport began as a small walled village, ruled over by Northland Keep. The original are was actually a prespawned "dungeon" as part of Hexxit or another equivalent modpack, but was converted into a city after it was cleared of monsters. Northland Keep was destroyed by a random weather event, specifically a giant frozen meteor on July 20th 2013. The city expanded north when the port was built, as well as the Northport Bazaar and the Port Authority & Customs warehouse, that was linked to Southland Manor via the old tram system that ran under the island. The old harbor wall was built not long after to prevent flooding. Fort Northport was another randomly generated structure that was but close by to replace the now destroyed Northland Keep. The courtyard of the fort holds the portal that takes players back to Southland Manor. The suburbs of Northport were constructed in October of 2013, starting on the 6th after a Reddit guide was posted on how to build a certain style of buildings. The second set of suburbs was also built across the street, as was the barn and windmill. The church was added at a later point, as were the inn and general store. The old blacksmith on The Black Warrior River was part of a partially spawned village on the island, that only spawned the blacksmith. The gravel road that leads to it also leads to a small dock on the Black Warrior River, looking across at Southland Island. Several ruins are spread across the city, including the old Northland Bridge to the east of the fort, that once reached across the river to an old prison on a landmass that was cut out during a revision of the map. Today, just the foundation of the first strut of the bridge still stands, right next to an abandoned underground tunnel entrance. | |||
