Guidebook Supplement Sovereign Stipends

Every season, Sovereigns have the ability to give their herd members up to 5000 signos through Court-run events or incentives. They can also create Unique Agora Items that can be gifted to characters! All items are non-transferrable between characters.

Rules for redeeming stipends for court activities...

Unique items must be approved by staff and added to the Agora along with a 16x16 pixel icon. Sovereigns must be authorized to use the art you provide and let us know who the artist is.
- Need help making the icon? Contact @inkbone, as she has a stash of purchased pixel assets that can be used or edited to fit!
The Sovereign must create an Incentive or Event thread. Make sure you clearly explain how your members can earn these rewards (signos or unique items) when you post this thread. Additionally, make sure the amount or items they'll be earning is clearly stated.

There must be an applicable use for the rewards and when members post to redeem the signos or the items, they must link to the Sovereign's event, incentive, activity thread and their "proof" of how they earned the reward (e.g. the IC thread they started).

These must be used for Court activities, events, or incentives. Only members of that court can claim the rewards.

Each Court can claim a max of 5000 signos total per IC season

1 IC season = 2 IRL months. Budget these signos wisely!

Sovereign Stipends do not roll over from one season to the next: Sovereigns either use them one season for an event or don’t; the balance resets on the next season.

Incentivizing characters to join your court.

While you can give rewards for characters earning a specific rank, you cannot entice them to simply join your court by offering signos or items received from this thread.

This is a regulation staff will monitor with the Joining Incentives as the need arises!
