Littleroot Village is a populated settlement in the Frontierlands, and the first officially-designated municipality in SpongeCraft Frontiers. Originally discovered by DarknessDG, and later incorporated by HawkbitAlpha, it is a former NPC village located in the world's savannah biome. Due to its close proximity to the server's spawn point in the Great Hoodoos, Littleroot Village quickly became the primary population center of SCF, and within only two days of the server's launch, all active players had moved into the village, either by claiming its existing abandoned houses or building their own. As of October 5th, 2023, it is the home base of Hawkbit, DarknessDG, WhoBob, Meko1432, OWM. RDSP, Compressere, and dmandaman.

On the same day of its discovery by DG, Littleroot's original population of NPC villagers was effectively wiped out by a nighttime swarm of mobs. However, following the removal of Meko's iron maker in September 2023, another group of free-roaming NPC villagers was released into the village's perimeter. Littleroot is 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.

Former Features

Trivia

  • The village was named by Hawkbit after the starting town from Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, due to it being the first official settlement in SCF.
