General

Village deeds are used to create villages. These cannot be created, they must be purchased from a trader, and are at a set price.

A village deed gives you a settlement token, which has a bank, Spirit guards, and information and rules about the settlement you can set.

Village deeds come in various sizes and prices. The bigger the size, the higher the cost.

Villages can only be founded in your kingdom. To create kingdom territory, build a Guard Tower. Villages must be at least 100 tiles away from eachother.

A size 10 give you a Trader.

Size and area of control

Higher sizes claim more land. The area claimed is the deed's size in a radius around the token.
The formula is Size*2+1xSize*2+1.
For example a size 5 deed will have a control area of 11x11 tiles and a size 10 21x21. ( Deed size x2 +1, so a size 100 deed will extend 201x201 tiles)

Upkeep

Village deeds require upkeep which is taken from an upkeep fund that everybody can donate to from the deed. The money used to donate is taken from your bank account.
The village empties the upkeep fund continously though the cost can be measured per month.
The upkeep cost depends on your guard level and is a percentage of the deed's original purchase cost.

• Light guards(Spirit Guard) cost 10% of the price per month
• Medium guards(Spirit Templar) cost 31% of the price per month
• Heavy guards(Spirit Sentry cost 56% of the price per month

This means that a size 5 village deed, which costs 25 silver, on light guards has an upkeep cost of 25 copper per month.
The guard level can be raised at anytime but lowered only once a week.

You can pay for deed only from your bank money, and this makes the pay time longer

Advantages

Guards
All Deeds come with at least some guards which help protect you from thieves, raiders & wild animals.

Slowed Decay Rates
Fences and buildings decay at slower rates on deeded areas.

Village Chat
People belonging to a Village get their own group chat called Village Chat. It works much the same as local chat where you can see the people who you can talk to, except that you can talk to your fellow villagers from anywhere in the world, they do not have to be in your local area.

Control over the area
almost everything within the village area can be controlled by the deed owner and those he gives permission to (commonly called Elders). For example, taking things, cutting trees & digging can be made illegal within the village grounds. If it is illegal, a non town member can not do those things. With the exception of stealing, where they have to kill all the guards first.

reputations
The deed owner (and elders) also has control over reputations on the deed. If the deed owner has reason to distrust a certain person, he can set their reputation to a negative number. A person with -30 to -100 gets attacked by the guards automatically, wether they are of the same kingdom or not.

Also, a person who has earned a bad reputation by stealing will automatically get attacked by the guards. to see your reputation, type /reputation into your chat window and press enter.
