Clans

Playing solo is possible in Velkaris. Experiencing greatness is only possible within a clan. A clan is more than a chat channel: it is a fortress, a vault, a rank structure, a war machine, and a diplomat. Whoever wants to compete in the top rankings of a world cannot avoid joining a clan.

Every clan possesses a fortress with upgradeable buildings, a shared vault for gold and diamonds, and the ability to recruit mercenaries. The fortress is the meeting point of all members — and the target of enemy sieges.

Velkaris allows freely configurable ranks with highly granular permissions. The founder automatically possesses all rights and can never lose them themselves — a safeguard against accidental lockouts. All other ranks receive exactly the permissions assigned to them by the clan leader:

Clans can form alliances, declare rivalries, or openly wage war. A declaration of war begins a round with a fixed duration, formations are determined beforehand, and every hit matters. Victory brings glory, defeat an entry into the history of the world — and sometimes a peace treaty that can be sold for a high price.

Mercenaries can be hired from the vault to fight during times of war. Shared loot distributions create an economy that no single player could ever achieve alone. This is how the myths of Velkaris are born — not from individual heroes, but from clans whose names are never forgotten.
