Roles

Roles on Ancar are mainly lore-based or canonical characters that have been added onto the server for roleplay and immersion purposes. Every role has a different set of criteria based on your alignment with respective factions or cultural blocs; after these criteria are satisfied, a staff member will give you the role and provide the necessary benefits and perks to the player.

Which Effects do Roles give?

Some give you Lore Weapons, others other Kinds of Gear and Items, but just some give "Enchantments" to the Players, like in the Cases of the Nazgûl Rings, you get Strength, Regeneration, and Night Vision.

## **King**

To become King of a specific faction, the interested faction must not have a King already, or he just must be inactive for a given amount of time. If such criteria have been fulfilled, you must have +1500 Alignment with the Faction that you wish to rule and you must build a city\* which is approved by the Staff.

## **Roles & Activity**

Roles, after 3 weeks of inactivity (Inactivity as defined by our metrics plugin requires at least 12 hours of active playtime in 3 weeks. This can be checked by running /plan ingame) without prior notice to staff with a reason, will get taken away and become vacant.

Istari and Sauron need to fight atleast 3 wars every 4 weeks if they want to keep the role.
