For vanilla+ roleplayers and pvp-ers alike: Custom events, unexplored lore sites, and interactive storylines!

We invite you to join our world, where our staff team work alongside players to provide interactive storytelling and custom events. We're a vanilla+ roleplay server where plot and fair PVP work alongside each other seamlessly to create spice and tension. Players new to PZ and roleplay are absolutely welcome - we're community that encourages RP within the level of violence and content you would typically see in the base game, so please keep this in mind before joining.

Each character has three lives for environmental deaths, but if you die during a PVP encounter, you may not revive - though our PVP rule-set never allows for killing players on sight and you'll always get some delicious tension out of any hostilities you encounter, and will survive so long as you comply. Our server settings focus on middling nightsprinter zombie population (x1.5 population) with slow respawn, meaning the map will be as dangerous as the players and community allow it to be. The Knox Virus is set to bite only, and we have the 'only cure' mod enabled, allowing players to remove bitten limbs if they wish.

March Ridge - KOS-enabled, March Ridge is a loot-filled town with no zombies! Protected by bandits, enter at your own risk and see if you're sneaky enough to hop the fence out of there with as much loot as your grubby little hands can carry! All players may also have a bandit account, whos job it is to dissuade other player characters from being greedy. This is the only area of the map where kill-on-sight is encouraged, and the walled-off town is full of loot and cars. It's the perfect spawn point for fresh characters... if you don't mind the danger.

Nightsprinters - Buzz's Bakery has manageable nightsprinters that run just a little bit faster than your walk speed, but are far slower than even a 0 sprint character. They're active between 10PM and 5AM. We have a slightly lower population (1.5x) and slower respawns to compensate for these little buggers, but they're enough to gently dissuade survivors from carelessly running around after dark.

The ECB - A mysterious paramilitary faction that keep showing up in Knox. They kidnap, trap their facilities, and for what...? What's their purpose here - what the hell are they looking for?

Map Refreshes - The map is often 'refreshed' with new cars being added, scrapped cars being repaired and new lore sites being added for players to discover.
