Changes

Making your own deed allows you to choose what size deed you want, and exactly what you want to do with it. You can choose to live alone, or find others to live on your deed with you. Both [[Account Types|premium ]] and free to play characters can found a deed, but only a premium character can invite people as villagers to their deed. To found a deed, you can use a [[deed stake ]] (or make one), choose a non deeded area of land, and place the deed stake. You will need a minimum of 4 silver, 21 copper in your bank to found a minimum sized deed. This will give you an 11 x 11 deed, with a five tile perimeter, and put three months upkeep in the coffers. A [[Settlement token|deed token ]] can not be placed in a house or a mine. The deed token lets you control permissions, manage your settlement, and acts as a bank.

Benefits of having a deed are many. You can set [[permissions ]] on your deed to allow other players access anywhere from full, to none. You can hire templar [[spirit guards ]] to protect your land. If you have at least 30 days upkeep in your coffers, you will be protected from decay on buildings, fences, and decorative items on deed, and you will also be protected from losing items in bulk storage. If your character dies, you will be able to re-spawn respawn at your deed. You can [[branding|brand ]] animals, which offers protection for them on and off deed. Branded animals can also be named, and equipment can be put on or taken off without having to tame them. Mobs will not spawn on deed, so having a deed can make play safer.
