The Monastery was a base created by a trio of players that went on to be infamous for its endurance throughout 2b2t history until February 2020. It survived without the need for reconstruction and was only found three times, which involved its griefing in 2020, the arrival of a retroactive core base member in 2016, and by an unknown player. “The Monastery” base was the second base for a trio of players: marcus4761 (jared2016), ttfractal44, and asobl97. The first, called “The Bunker,” was established by the three of them earlier in 2012 which lasted only a few months due to its proximity to its nether portal. The sighting of an unknown player between the base and the nether portal caused marcus4761 to seek out and find a new site for a base. The location marcus4761 found (around 15k away from “The Bunker”) was the island that became the core of “The Monastery” base. The first building erected around September of 2012 was the main building of the monastery itself, without the cloistered garden which would come later. The intention of the building was to serve as sleeping quarters, as well as the base’s center for item storage, enchantment, and brewing; a role which it served for nearly the entire existence of the base. Shortly after the initial settlement, asolb97 quit the server, citing the annoyances of long distance walking, the server lag, and boredom with vanilla gameplay. Following this, two players, KobeBeast and Mr_KyleBeast (aka PapaSmurf) made the journey from spawn and joined The Monastery base. Another player, Superhomunculus, made the journey but lost interest soon after. Unbeknownst to ttfractal44 and marcus4761, KobeBeast and Mr_KyleBeast built their own base directly underneath the monastery, down at bedrock level, with a hidden entrance at the bottom of a small pond in front of the monastery building. (Note: the rooms to this base are still extant underneath the floor of the large underground area beneath the monastery). Upon learning of the secret base, marcus4761 took it upon himself to excavate a massive amount of stone, matching the footprint of the monastery and the newly added cloister, down to the level of Kobe and Kyle’s base as a sort of retaliation for their secret base.
