History
The idea of building a base in the end dimension was something founder, dmgdog had been thinking about for a while. However initially, dmgdog planned the city to be a solo project. On the 10th December 2019 dmgdog found an island on which he thought would be perfect to situate Erebus in. After posting a screenshot of the map on the Cyberdog Nation Discord Server, other players were intrigued about the idea of having a city in the end dimension, since it hadn’t been done before on Dogcraft.
The Team
A few days after dmgdog started work on the island, he realised that the project would be too large to complete alone, so he set up a Discord Server to be able to communicate with other players about the project. TrainerMoon was appointed as a second mayor, to help organise and watch-over the project, to assure the city ran as smoothly as possible. After an announcement was made, looking for people to join the build team, three eager players, TxpMC , Kingcreeper1, and expedtadam all said that they were interested in helping prepare the city for the opening. On the 24th December 2019, TheWhiteTigerNL was appointed as the fourth builder of Erebus.
Initial Planning
After the build team was assembled, everyone was excited to get started, however dmgdog struggled to clearly present his initial plans and ideas about the city to the other builders which led to a small amount of confusion and curiosity. It was decided that the city would be split up into 3 main sections; The Main City, the Rural Area, and the Mountainous region.
A mini-game area was also added to a connecting island, where games will be built for the opening day in 2020.
Work began on the server as dmgdog, Kingcreeper1, TxpMC and helper, nossi345 flattened the terrain in preparation for building the city.
This was followed by creative building, where the team built a mock landscape and started to design the town hall.
The Town Hall
The town hall is the center-piece of the island, where information about the city, offices for the builders and founders, and storage/utilities for the builders to use whilst building the island is located.
After many unsuccessful attempts at designing the town hall himself, dmgdog asked the build team to help him. TxpMC and {{player|expedtadam} combined elements of both their designs to create a stately, but practical building. The hall's palette consists of endstone bricks, smooth quartz variants for the walls, and purpur for the roofs. The interior is a cozy and modern design, with the use of vegetation to add colour to the build.
On the ground floor, there are two signs located at the rear of the building, displaying important information about the city. In addition, there is also a gift shop, a set of toilets, and the map of the city.
The first floor consists of 5 office spaces, free for Erebus Builders to design with a cafe and common room area.
dmgdog and TrainerMoon's offices are located in the central tower on the second and third floor respectively.
The basement is for access of the build team only, however there is viewing access from the ground floor in the form of a glass window. The basement has a storage area for city projects and a super smelter.
