on (precisely) how the game works, solving mysteries, and more...

 

 

 

We accept all races, and we have no requiremements on which region you should settle your cities. If your total population is under 450 population, check our membership list. We currently will only accept 3 players at a time that have total populations of less than 450. As those members grow bigger, we'll have room for more small players.

 

We assume that many of our Apprentice and Journeyman members will move on to Invictus or Victrix, but we hope to have a group of dedicated players who will stay in SAGES and join our team in its goal of discovering the details of how Illyriad works. Larger players who are interested in this goal are welcome to join SAGES. It's alright if you have a second account in another alliance, but please tell Mara Zira who your second account is when you join.

 

You can read our rules on the public forum.

 

Sages has close friends in VIC and VICX.

 

 

 

Apprentice - All players will start at this rank.

 

Journeyman - To move up to this rank, an apprentice must show that they have a basic understanding of how the game works. When a player starts to answer other players' questions about the game on alliance chat (and answer these questions correctly), they will be considered for promotion to this rank.

 

Master - To move up to this rank, a journeymen needs to contact Mara Zira with a research idea and their basic ideas of how to go about it. This idea can be discovering something not already known about how combat works, NPC animals migrate and split, how magic works, solving a game Mystery, etc. If that area of study has not already been discovered by another member, the player can work (with the help of other members) to discover this knowledge. This new knowledge will be shared with other members of Master rank or higher on the Knowledge Forum. A player who completes a research project will be promoted to Master and have access to the discoveries of other members on the Knowledge Forum. But you must contribute knowledge before you have access to this "higher" knowledge.

 

Expert - These players have made several discoveries about the game and added to the knowledge base of the alliance.

 

Grand Master -  These players are leaders with leadership powers, and they oversee the research of a type of knowledge -- like combat, magic, diplomatic units, etc.

 

Professor emeritus - An honourary degree. This rank is awarded to former scribes to acknowledge their great work.

 

Scribe - The top leader of the alliance who organizes and helps write down everything learned so others may learn from it.
