Overview


Factions are an allegiance to a respected Dy'kletiun leader. These leaders are often in direct contact to Pantheon Elders and help manage the politics of the Dy'kletiun species. Factions compete twice a year for special perks that last until the next Dominance season.
The dominant faction is rewarded the following:
  1. +1 full breeding a month
  2. +1 free Patrol  a month
  3. +1 free Expedition a month 
  4. +10% chance to successfully complete a hunt
  5. +10% chance to avoid an Encounter in Exploration
  6. +5% chance to Craft any kind of crafting item.

Dominance Events
Dominance events occur twice a year, in the Spring and in the Fall. They occur the first month of the season, so the first event will always happen March and the second event will always happen in September. Events last for two months of the season, in which factions will compete against each other. The winning faction will keep the perks until the next season, in which they must battle to keep their perks. This means that a faction will keep their perks for four months.

The Faction-less


Until a faction is chosen you are considered faction-less. There are no bonuses for being faction-less. The only penalty for being faction-less is that you do not get to participate in dominance.

Joining a faction

Joining a faction for the first time is simple and easy. Reply to this journal with the following form:

You may not participate in dominance if you are not assigned to a faction.

Faction - [The faction you are joining] 
Dy Imports - [Link all of your uploaded Dy'kletiun. Note that ALL of your Dy will share the same faction!]



Changing Your Faction

Changing your faction however is not as simple. It requires a bit of work and there are some restrictions that apply.

Restrictions
  1. A member may not change their Faction during a Dominance Event
  2. You must be a member of a Faction for 3 months before you may change
  3. If you change your faction to the dominating faction you cannot gain the rewards of that faction until the next dominance event.

These restrictions are in place to keep order in Dominance. Failure to abide by the rules will result you in being Faction-less for one whole season and having to re-join a faction.

Changing FactionsTo change your faction you must wait 3 months, then you will complete a drawn or written prompt for the faction that you are joining. Prompts must include the current Faction leader and one of your Dy'kletiun.

Drawn Prompts
Drawn prompts must include the following:
  1. 50% of the faction leader
  2. 50% of one of your Dy'kletiun
  3. Fully colored and shaded with background

Literature Prompts
Literature prompts must include the following:

  1. 50% about the prompt itself not including things like background details
  2. The faction leader and one of your Dy'kletiun interacting
  3. 2,000 words

Prompts: Please check back later as this is in progress!

F.A.Q

We've provided a few answers to some questions from the community about Dominance and factions.


  1. Do I have to join a faction?

No you do not! But in order to participate in Dominance and gain the benefits of Dominance, you must.

  2. May I request to change to Faction-less? Do I have to claim Faction-less as my faction if I have not claimed one yet?
Yes, you may request to change to faction-less. You do not have to complete any prompts for faction-less changes. You do not have to claim faction-less as your faction if you have not claimed one yet.

  3. Are Dominions used in Dominance?
No, Dominions are a PVE mechanic. You may however use Afflictions, which are PVP mechanics.

4. Can I have Dy in different Factions?
No, as Faction and dominance is an account bound feature! You can have them be non-canon and not have them be updated on the import, but you will not be able to use them in Dominance.
