The Raven's Call

Server-side Valheim chronicle, live telemetry, and player ledger.

Platforms:Dedicated Server, Linux, Windows
Release:August 15, 2026

The Raven’s Call is a dedicated-server admin, analytics, and dynamic lore chronicle system for Valheim. It runs 100% server-side on dedicated servers, recording every player triumph, boss conquest, raid defense, and tragic demise into a unified persistent ledger.

Designed to power live web dashboards, Discord webhook broadcasts, and external bot automation (including BarrkBOT), The Raven’s Call captures real-time player data with zero performance footprint on connected players.

Key Features

🏛️ 100% Server-Side Architecture

Installs exclusively on your Valheim dedicated server (BepInEx/plugins/). No client installation is required for players to connect or participate. The server maintains authoritative records across all connected sessions.

📜 Dynamic Event Chronicle & Discord Webhooks

Automatically writes a living saga of your world:

  • Boss Slays & Milestones: Records first kills, raid events, and major progression markers.
  • Biomes & Exploration: Tracks first footfalls into dangerous biomes (Plains, Mistlands, Ashlands, Deep North).
  • Player Demises: Captures rich cause-of-death attribution with Viking funeral eulogies.
  • Automated Webhooks: Broadcasts real-time events, server alerts, and chronicle entries directly to configured Discord channels.

🗺️ Real-Time Embedded Web Dashboard

Built-in lightweight HTTP server serving a single-page telemetry dashboard (theravenscall.html):

  • Live World Map: Player positions, coordinates, active biomes, and online status.
  • Server Health: Real-time FPS, tick rate, connected peer count, and uptime telemetry.
  • Player Hall of Fame: Individual kill counts, damage dealt, deaths, and gear tier metrics.

🤖 BarrkBOT Integration (barrkbot_players.json)

Exports structured JSON snapshots of all registered players, inventory gear tiers, playtime, and combat stats for external community automation bots.

📡 Routed RPC Combat Processor (RavensCall_CombatReport_V1)

Listens for owner-side combat telemetry broadcasted by client companion mod Where The Crow Flies, accurately crediting creature kills, boss damage, and fishing catches even across Valheim’s distributed peer-to-peer zone physics model.
