Chesapeake enjoys both a lively PVP scene as well as an active Roleplaying(RP) community. One of the oldest RP communities in all of Ultima Online resides on Chesapeake, known PaxLair and has even been blessed and recognized by Lord British personally. This player-run community has existed since early 1998 and is still steadily evolving.
Throughout the different shards, one of the things Chesapeake is well-known for is the biennial Chesapeake Olympics.
