BadWolfMC's Tardis is a trans-dimensional type-40 time travel capsule also capable of traveling across space and Minecraft servers, and serves as the main information hub for the network. It is currently disguised on the exterior as a blue police telephone box in the style of 1960s England, as is tradition.
Quests
Talk to The Doctor in the Console Room for a selection of simple daily quests, ranging from finding a snack to tackling the Ender Dragon! These quests refresh each day and offer a fun variety of tasks suited for all playstyles—some are quick and silly, while others provide a real challenge. Completing quests rewards players with various and occasionally unique items, making them a great way to earn rewards while exploring the server.
Current Configuration
Paying homage to the six founders of Gallifrey, the internal configuration of the type-40 is based on a hexagonal network of corridors linking spherical pods that make up the Tardis's various rooms. These pod sections can be ejected or expanded as needed by the pilot or the Tardis herself. Some of the more notable rooms are listed below.
The Console Room
Upon entering the Tardis one will find themselves in the Console Room. This room changes over time, taking on aspects of the current personality of The Doctor. The Console Room contains portals to other servers on the network and houses the information that would be most useful to new players, including server rules, a cheap and dirty guide to applying and getting started, and information on how to support the network.
The Library
The Tardis's Library is also where she happens to keep the swimming pool, but please do try not to dampen the books.
The Archived Control Panel
The Archived Control Panel is a former console room archived by the Tardis because she can. This room houses information on current server staff as well as some controls for personalized in-game options that players can toggle.
The Architectural Reconfiguration Room
This room houses the Tardis's Architectural Reconfiguration System, a machine resembling a tree that has the capability of arranging particles into whatever configuration is needed, allowing the Tardis to repair itself or expand. This is where the Tardis keeps a two-month rolling list of BadWolfMC's members with at least a semi-active status who are approaching the anniversary of their reconfiguration (birthdays).
The Cloister Room
Home to the Tardis's internal alarm system, the Cloister Bell, the Cloister Room also contains an interface to the Eye of Harmony and is capable of receiving and processing information directly from Gallifrey. This information is then arranged on physical or holographic displays of interesting server statistics.
The Game Room
Found behind the Greenhouse, the Game Room serves as an arcade and is the launching pad for our server Game Nights.
The Observation Deck
The Tardis's Observation Deck affords a breathtaking view of Satellite 5, K37 Gem 5, and surrounding space and provides a transmat link to these.
The Tesseract Engine
The Tesseract Engine helps make sense of all things wibbly-wobbly. Stare mesmerized as the engine runs, or flip the switch in the control room to see a basic visual representation of our Residence protection system.
The Zero Room
The Zero Room is a place where the Doctor or their visitors can spend some time floating in zero-gravity, useful for post-regeneration recovery. Then if you'd like, let the room float you up to the topmost observation platform of one of the Tardis's massive Pillars of Destiny, affording stunning views of the exterior of the Tardis and other elements in the dimension.
Minigames
The Tardis is also home to the TardisDropper and TardisParkour, the latter of which will take all of your regenerations to complete!
