Village Basics

When a player purchases a house, that character will become apart of that village. All villages start with a base amount of 35 houses, but through village projects a village can eventually house 60 characters.

Creating a Village

Players can choose to join a village or create their own. To create a village, a character or guild can speak with Big Willy the Realtor in Ardent City. Certain materials from around the world OR the item shop will be required.

To create a Guild Village, the leader must approach Big Willy with the following items:

• 50 gold coins
• At least 10 members in the Guild
• Buckets of Paint
• Town Flag
• Town Hall Notice Board
• Town Bell

Guild Villages can only be created if there are spare village slots open on the server.

The Mayor

Every village has a mayor. The creator of the village will be the first elected mayor. Mayorship can be passed on if the current mayor wishes to do so.

The Mayor currently has a few special abilities:

• A mayor can change the name of the village
• A mayor can change the welcome text of a village
• A mayor can create and assign ranks to the villagers

Village Benefits

As a village grows in size, they will begin to collect benefits. These benefits can range from bonus experience, to increased chances of lucky finds. These benefits will be given to all members of a village.

To see a full list of village perks, check the town hall of the village.

Community Vault

Every Village is given a shared vault that behaves much like a characters normal vault, except that it is shared among members of the village. Any member of the village can freely deposit or withdraw from the shared vault. Non-village members cannot access a village vault.

Village Types

There are two types of villages: open villages and guild villages.

Open Villages:

Open villages are open to settlement to anyone. Any character at anytime can purchase a house in an open village.

Guild Villages:

Guild Villages are owned by a guild. Guild villages are private, meaning that in order for character to move into the village, they must be part of the owning guild. If a Guild village has more than ten housing slots open, they will enter a trial period. The trial period will last for one week, if in that time they have not filled those slots the village will become an open village.
