'''Littleroot Village''' was a populated settlement in [[The Frontierlands|the Frontierlands]] of the original [[SpongeCraft Frontiers]], best known as the server's unofficial capital. Originally discovered on SCF's launch day by [[DarknessDG]], and officially incorporated two days later by [[HawkbitAlpha]], it was a former NPC village located in the world's savannah biome. It served as the largest connection hub of the [[Pioneer Central Railway]], being linked by rail to the Great Hoodoos, as well as the villages of [[Centralia]], New Horizonia, and Pescare Part.

Due to its close proximity to the server's spawn point in the [[Great Hoodoos]], Littleroot Village became the primary population center of SCF within only two days of the server's launch, with all active players having moved into the village by July 6th, either by claiming its existing abandoned houses or building their own. The village's existing houses were left empty due to a nighttime swarm of mobs which occurred shortly after its discovery by DG, effectively wiping out the original population of NPC villagers. However, following the removal of [[Meko1432]]'s iron maker in September 2023, another group of free-roaming villagers was released into its perimeter. By the time of the closure of SCF V1, Littleroot had become the home base of Hawkbit, DG, Meko, [[WhoBob]], [[OWM]], [[RDSP]], Compressere, and [[dmandaman]].
