Sanctuary allows individuals to own and control one of the 25 estates on the Cuiveinen mainland. The primary point of owning an estate is to participate in the political and martial conflict which is the backbone of the shard storyline. There are five-kingdom capital estates and 20 regional estates. Estates can be claimed via one of the Estate Stones outside of the main fortification.

So you want an estate?

'Thats great to hear! We are always excited to have new people come play with us.

The first question usually is; "Do we have available estates?".: We usually have available estates. There are 25 estates on the mainland, and it's unlikely that they have all been claimed.

So that would make the next question, "How do I go about getting one?": The only way to find an available estate is to visit each of the 25 estate locations and check the stone to see if it's available. Make a role-play of it!

Does it cost anything.: Yes, having an estate costs 10,000 a week. You will need the first week upfront when you go to claim the stone.

How To

Travel the various locations accessible to the ship captain and wagoneers looking for an Estate Stone -- they look like gravestones but are typically found in front of the largest building in a city, or the front gates of a fort.
Hover your mouse over the estate stone to see if it is unclaimed.
To claim an unclaimed estate just single click the stone, and select "Claim Estate." The stone will take 10,000 gold out of your bank box.

You are now the owner of the estate and can access RPCSS for this estate. New players will be directed to the New Player Guide (RPCSS) for help on how to play the game. You will also be able to use your estate title by type .skilltitle.

Expectations

Sanctuary is a role-play shard. Cuiviénen is a RP-Required facet. So it should go without saying that we expect estate owners to role-play, not just play RPCSS like a single person sim game.
Conversely, we expect you to perform weekly moves in RPCSS to grow your estate in defense of yourself and your kingdom.
Estate owners are encouraged but not required to update the forum post set aside for their estate. Kingdom leaders really should update the kingdom so that players surfing from the wiki to the forum looking for current information find something: http://forums.sanctuaryshard.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=51
Estate owners are expected to understand that this is a game of war on a conflict-driven shard and players are warned that there are no guarantees that you will keep your estate if another team wants it.

Previously, in-game land on the mainland of Cuiviénen could only be controlled by guilds (Noble Houses). The changes are planned for release in June-July of 2020.

-* You will be able to go to the mainland, Cuiviénen, and using a sextant establish an estate. This process will place an estate stone, ask you to name your estate, and create a team for you in [[:category:RPCSS|RPCSS]] where you will manage your estate.
+;The first question usually is; "Do we have available estates?".
-* You will have control over the housing in your hexacre(s).  You will be to choose a home to rent "nearly for free". (We have to figure out how this will actually work, so check back.)
+:We usually have available estates.  There are 25 estates on the mainland, and it's unlikely that they have all been claimed.
-* You will be able to evict other players living in your hexacre(s).
-* You will get NPC henchmen to take hunting, attack other player armies with, and defend your land.
-* You will get bonuses to resources and potentially unique resources.
-* You will be able to release BODs to your Quarter Master which when completed will improve your armies initiative.

-* Much much more
-===Guards===
+;So that would make the next question, "How do I go about getting one?"
-You may request guards to be placed within the estates programmed guard zone. All estates should be set up with a 100x100 tile guard zone area. If yours is not please contact Lara. This zone should generally include such high traffic areas such as the bank, craft hall, taverns, town square, and your audience chamber.
+:The only way to find an available estate is to visit each of the 25 estate locations and check the stone to see if it's available. Make a role-play of it!
-===NPCs and Spawns===
+;Does it cost anything.
-At the time of this writing (5/10/20), I have reviewed the mainland spawns.  A few got trimmed, most just got organized and renamed.  I will be happy to talk to each new estate owner and make sure that they have a banker, a town crier, a postman, and other vendors suitable to their estate's decoration.
+:Yes, having an estate costs 10,000 a week.  You will need the first week upfront when you go to claim the stone.
-*I am also happy to review the lands around your estate to make sure they have location-appropriate birds, wild animals, domesticated animals.

-#Sanctuary is a role-play shard.  Cuiviénen is a RP-Required facet. So it should go without saying that we expect estate owners to role-play, not just play RPCSS like a single person sim game.  We have no minimum expectations at this time but reserve the right to implement some if problems arise. For now, let's just understand that if you are not actually role-playing on the shard and on your estate owner we reserve the right to give your estate to someone who will.

-=Backstory Ideas=
+# Estate owners are expected to understand that this is a game of war on a conflict-driven shard and players are warned that there are no guarantees that you will keep your estate if another team wants it.
-''If you want to know more about an estate's back story, you can also search their name in the [[: Talk:News and Rumors |News and Rumors Archive]].  If you find nothing, then you are probably free to be creative. Here are some suggestions.
-*During the winter months, the populace of the estate were exposed to sickness and poor management by their lord. Many died, others took what meager possessions they had and left. With the disappearance of the lord, the serfs who remain look for someone to take the helm and lead them back to prosperity.
-*Similar to the above, the ruling noble cared more about their own pockets than the health and livelihood of their peasants. One poor choice after another coupled with bad luck found them in deep debt, financially and with the nobility of other cities and holdings. Looking for a quick way out, they offer to sell their parents of nobility as well as their estate and surrounding lands to the highest (and quickest) bidder.
-*After coming to these lands, you have seen how the natives are treated and you feel some sort of responsibility to providing them with a better life. Or maybe you think that seems to be the ticket and want to grab it for yourself. You challenge the current lord (a duel, a gamble, an election?) or maybe you just off them, and any who could claim succession, when no one is looking.
-*In your exploration of these new lands you find a settlement that is long past its prime. You can't say when but it is evident by the state of rot and decay that no one has called this place home in years. Fancying yourself the leadership type, you set to work making repairs and soliciting locals to aid you in your endeavor, even convincing some that you would be a good and just lord.
-*You've been here for sometime now; 1 year, 5 years, 10 years...long enough to have seen the battles that raged between the kingdoms, the famines that ravaged the land, perhaps even a time or two of peace when the promise of something better hung so tangibly in the summer air. You have grown weary of the back and forth of it all. The people deserve a sovereign who can unit the kingdoms and you know in the deepest recess of your being that you are the person to do it. Utilizing the reputation, resources, and relationships you have forged you make a grab for one of the more loosely held cities and begin your campaign to unit the realm or die trying.
-* You've always been the lucky sort and one evening you just happened to make your way through the gates of a manor where childless liege lays waiting for whatever god cares to claim their soul. The only heir is a convolutedly distant relation whom no one in the holding seems to have ever met. Mistaking you for that heir you are quickly ushered to the seat of power before the cushion is even cold. Will the real heir show up to stack their claim? Only time will tell.
-*To be frank, you simply do not like the person or people who are currently leading an estate and. Nothing would give you more pleasure than ousting them and claiming all they had worked for as your own. Maybe you were tricked by a fae once or humiliated by a dragon. Or maybe some Jarl decided to insult your honor. Whatever the case, the current climate of change and upheaval seems like the perfect opportunity to exact your revenge.
-* You were always taught to be kind, to treat everyone with respect whether they're the lowest stable boy or the highest Queen. You made friends with the right people and when the leader of the estate steps down it is you who are offered the crown.
-=Staff=
-What do you need to know between now and ... the next time I give you instructions. :)
-# Players who have reserved an estate can rent that estate for 1 gold.  Please note that as of May 6th at 4:30 PM EST we've not done a map update yet and I still have brownstone castle multis scattered on the map, you can't give them the multi.  They have to wait for the update.  Tarnsted is an exception and I'll handle it.
+;Read Next
-# Each fort can have at least a banker and a postman, for now.  No others are being added.  I will be DE-spawning all castles of their other npcs as well. If you don't know how to set these up using the XML spawner, get help. (Obviously, the main capitals will keep their npcs in the city area, but not in the castle.)
+*[[Estate Details (RPCSS)]]
-# Check to see if the area has a guard zone set up.  I know that I did all of the cities, as well as most of the other estates that were built before tonight's update.  If you can't find a guard zone, let me know so I can set one up.

-# You can place guards for the player within that zone.  I don't remember the name of the guards we made, but I will find it and update this for you.
