{{DISPLAYTITLE:Player Hierarchy}}


A house consists exclusively of vampires, a pack exclusively of lycans, and a circle exclusively of witches. These formations cannot contain various species as it would contradict the roleplay. To create a house/pack/circle, a player must have 10 or more followers and also pay the fee of 1000 Lindens. Currently, in the beta phase, the follower count is set to five followers.
The current organisational hierarchy is:


=== Clans ===
<div style="text-align:center; font-weight:700; margin:1em 0;">[[Bloodlines]] → [[Clans]] → [[Dynasties]] → Players</div>


A clan can include two or more houses, packs, or circles, either individually or in any combination. The clan is owned by the clan leader, known as the sovereign. Occasionally, there are two owners, with the second being the co-sovereign. After the sovereigns in leadership come the Ambassador, and finally, the Proxy. To start your own clan, you must meet the requirements below.

In the Realm of Darkness, the highest position a player can hold is that of an arch. An arch serves as the progenitor of the bloodline to which players belong. To initiate the creation of a new bloodline, approximately 125 members must be assembled within designated bloodline clans.
New players begin as solitary players unless they join an organisation. Their sire and lineage relationships still connect them to the wider family system, while organisational membership determines any additional group roles and rules.

The current organisational hierarchy is:

BloodlinesClansDynasties → Players

This page is an overview of those relationships. Follow the linked pages for details.

Player

New players begin as solitary players unless they join an organisation. Their sire and lineage relationships still connect them to the wider family system, while organisational membership determines any additional group roles and rules.

Dynasties

Dynasties are the organisations players directly join. Vampire Dynasties are Houses, Lycan Dynasties are Packs, Witch Dynasties are Covens, and Hunter Dynasties are Orders.

Clans

Clans bring multiple Dynasties together and may contain a combination of species-specific organisation types.

Bloodlines

Bloodlines contain Clans and represent the highest organisational level shown by the current game website.

Arch

An Arch is the leading role associated with a Bloodline. The standalone guide preserves the existing leadership expectations and clearly labels the old numerical threshold as unverified legacy information.

Activity scores

See Dynasty and Clan Activity Scores for weekly qualification, rankings, and lifetime scores.
