Two gods of this unknown world have whisked away 26 people and brought them into this world of magic, technology, and trade.
Sorted into three teams and forced to do the gods' bidding, these contestants have their memories and motivations intact… for better or worse.
Modswap is a closed Modded Minecraft SMP with light roleplay elements. The challenge is each team is only allowed to use a certain set of mods.
Our participants are a group of people who came together and wanted to make something cool. Friends, friends of friends, some streamers, some not.
We have participants from all over the world, so the schedule of when the server will be open and when viewers can watch streams will vary. Check out our Discord for announcements regarding stream times and game sessions!

Welcome to Modswap! Where we compete to decide which kingdom has the best mods! In order to facilitate The Experiment, all players must follow a set of rules listed here.

There are two Game Masters of this Experiment. One good, one evil. No matter the alignment of the GM, they must also follow the rules.

While the GMs do represent good and evil, they must remain unbiased and fair as arbiters of the rules. The good GM rewards kindness and the Evil GM rewards mischief.

The GMs are also to try and maintain a sense of balance between the kingdoms. When one pulls ahead, they may be treated more harshly and vice-versa.



Each of the 3 kingdoms can only use mods that have been assigned to them. Kingdoms can share access to a mod or mods to other kingdoms, but this access can NOT be revoked. Choose carefully.
In order for the above rule to be enacted, a majority vote must be cast.
Every so often, as decided by the GMs, a representative will be called from each kingdom to compete in a challenge of the GMs choosing. The winner obtains a reward for their kingdom and the losers will die (or worse). Apart from these challenges, you may respawn.








Slain participants can be resurrected. This can only be done if the two GMs agree on a challenge, sacrifice, or other task. Note: BOTH GMs must agree.
The experiment concludes with one final challenge of the GMs discretion.
Modswap is for content! Tryharding, killing people for no reason, griefing, and other anti-productive behaviors are not allowed.
A kingdom’s inability to use mods not listed is a hard rule. You may keep items from disallowed mods for trading, but can not use them for any actual functionality. Yes, this limitation does mean only Trade can make bases around villagers (requires the use of Guard Villagers).
The Nether and The End are off limits (with a couple unlisted exceptions). Additionally, netherite gear is banned! If your mod has gear that exceeds netherite, this is still allowed.
Infinite farms of any kind must be lag-free methods (or intended by your modpack) and Nether roof farms are not allowed.
The spawn platform is sacred. Blocks and items upon it shall not be touched.
Failure to comply with above rules will result in punishment dealt by the Gods’ hands. The Gods can still be angered outside of these rules. Be careful.

When Modswap was first conceive, its founders spent hours just shooting off mods left and right, choosing which ones would be most fun to play around with within the rules of the game. And so we put together the modlist with that in mind: fun.





























While there are many gods within the universe our focus is on only two of these divine beings. Jorvik, the God of Trials and Evil, and Duravaan the God of Harmony and Good. These two divine beings oversee the land of Elonir. Unfortunately for our intrepid characters, and rather fortunate for the viewers, these two entities have grown bored. Tired of their petty squabbling the two have come together for and united for one grand purpose. Entertainment!
Order and Chaos, good and evil, life and death. To many, these extremes are opposites. Yet, to an enlightened few, they are one and the same. One cannot exist without another. The same can be said for Duravaan and Jorvik.
While opposed to one another by nature these two have formed a bond deeper than even the closest of families. So when boredom threatened to drive them mad they made a bet. They would gather intrepid souls from across the cosmos, plucking them from their timeline or making deals with other gods, and split them into three groups. The Tech Corp, Magic Guild, and Trade Hub.
Duravaan and Jorvik have come together to decide what shall reign supreme among mortals, order or chaos? They will leave this decision up to the very mortals it affects, by putting them through trials.
Duravaan believes mortals are good by their nature, while Jorvik believes they are evil and self-serving. Each God will attempt to prove their point by steering the three factions in their ‘correct’ direction. Jorvik attempts to sow chaos and bring about destruction, pitting the factions against each other. Duravaan on the other hand will try to bring harmony between the factions. Steering them towards cooperation where no one faction is above another.
Elonir is a land fully under the control of Duravaan and Jorvik. It was once a grand land of discovery where magic and technology melded together for the greater good.
Yet all good things must come to an end. The start of Elonir’s downfall was the creation of the Homunculi. Artificial life that was the perfect blend of Magic and Tech, meant to bring untold prosperity. Instead they brought stagnation. While they were alive they weren't true life. The nations became complacent and eventually withered away, leaving behind only the Homunculi as their legacy. These creatures came together to form communities, becoming what we now know as villagers.

Jòrvik and Duravaan are ancient and powerful gods that call the land known as Elonir their own personal playspace. Both gods represent one half of the same coin. Jòrvik representing Trials and Tribulations, and Duravaan representing harmony and order. Both gods rule over their land with absolute impunity and power. Such a power eventually led to an extreme boredom. This boredom is exactly what led to Jòrvik and Duravaan's friendly wager.
A trial to be supreme over all other trials! They would summon heroes and adventurers from other multiverses to compete in their own personal sandbox. Jòrvik, craving chaos would create trials and dungeons for the 'players' to compete in. Duravaan would create new forms of magic and technology for the players to use. "Mods" he called them.
And thus, Modswap was created!

Between the high-pitched wheezing of pneumatic machines and the deep rumbling of drills piercing the ground, it's no wonder people can get lost in the chaos of industry within Tech Corps.

When they next opened their eyes, they found their prayers answered, not with words, but with them finding themselves in a completely new world, with only the thought of "Find Yourself."
