			One of the biggest features of [[Shadowbane]] is the ability to create your own city in the game world. Since there are only 120 city slots available on [[Vorringia]], the first few days after a server [[Vocabulary#W\|wipe]] are crucial. Guilds race to [[Vocabulary#F\|farm]] up the necessary [[gold]] to afford a [[tree of life]], then set out on a quest to plant it in their ideal spot.
	~~== Process ==~~
	~~=== Charter ===~~
	~~If there is an open spot~~, the ~~next thing you will need is~~ a ~~guild charter. These seeds are available from any~~ [[~~runemaster~~]]~~. There~~ are ~~several types of charters available~~. ~~The type you choose does not matter unless your server uses a~~ [[~~Loreplay~~]] ~~rule set. Double click on the charter in your inventory to begin the guild creation process.~~

	~~Once you have established your guild, you will be made~~ the ~~guild master of an '''unlanded guild''', or a guild with no city.~~

	~~=== Seed ===~~
	~~The next thing you will need is a~~ [[~~Tree of Life~~]]~~. The seed~~ to ~~plant~~ a tree of life ~~is also available from any runemaster. Travel~~ out to ~~your chosen city location and double-click the seed to open the asset placement window. Tweak the position of the tree until the icon is green, then click "place"~~.

	~~The land will flatten around~~ you, and ~~in the center,~~ a ~~Tree of Life sapling will appear~~, and the ~~crests above your head will change to a '''landed guild''~~'.		If you are joining a server well into its life cycle, chances are that there are no city spots left. Not to fear, there is still hope to obtain one. Try visiting an NPC city (such as Aeldreth or Sea Dog's Rest) and send out a [[Chat#Yell\|yell]] explaining that you wish to buy a city, and make a similar post on the forums or in the game's discord trade channel.

	~~Congratulations,~~ you ~~now~~ have a city.		If you have no luck buying a city on the open market, you can attempt to take one with a [[bane]]. Join an existing guild and explain to the leadership that you will finance such an endeavour. In exchange for their help, they may ask you to become a subordinate guild under their [[nation]].

	~~=== Next Steps ===~~
	From here, your next steps will depend on what kind of city you are creating. Visit a [[builder]] NPC to purchase buildings, and a [[steward]] NPC to purchase hirelings to put in them. For more help and advice, visit [[City Building Guide]].
