Then $150 every 5 more
VolunteeringShifts and hours earn points, levels and badges. Never cash: that would make it a paid job.
GivingGifts earn points and thanks by name if you choose. Never a reward in return: that would cut your tax receipt.
Together: when talent work with each other on a project, it’s a collaboration. A Tree ring unlocks a collab commission for the best one, chosen by Vengeance Foundation.
Vengeance Foundation approves each award against these milestones and pays it from the Community Tree, from 1 January 2027. When the Tree is short, they wait in line.
Community points
Every deed counts
Community points are earned by doing things for the community: putting events on, giving your time, telling its stories, taking part. The more you make possible for others, the more you earn.

Rewards are coming. In the next few months, levels start unlocking rewards. Points you earn now count toward them.
Boons for the work
Boons are a producer honorarium and a talent award, counted by what people have done, not by points. Vengeance Foundation approves each one and pays it from the Community Tree, so every gift to the Tree helps.
Producers
By events produced
- 1 event$150
- 3 events$250
- 5 events$350
- 10 events$500
- 15 events$650
- 20 events$800
- Then every 5 more$500
Talent
By times selected for an open call
- 3 selections$75
- 6 selections$125
- 10 selections$175
- 15 selections$250
- 20 selections$350
- Then every 5 more$250
Boons are the most they can be: they’re paid from what the Tree holds, and when it’s short they wait in line. Arthur approves each one. An event counts once it has happened and its organization approved it; being picked counts once per initiative. Volunteers and the community are thanked with points, levels and badges.
Badges, streaks and challenges
Extra ways to be recognised for showing up, week after week.
Your Vigil
Your streak: weeks in a row you take part
✦✦✦✦····
A week counts when you volunteer, attend, write or put something on. Clicks alone don’t keep it alive.
The Monthly Trial
A challenge each month
- ✦Volunteer a shift
- ·Go to an event
- ·Write or approve a story
All three earn that month’s badge, and bonus points
Heraldry
Badges you earn
Recognition only. They’re worth pride, not money.
A story, point by point
- The first 300 words150
- Each 100 words after, up to 1,500+25
- 3 or more photos+75
- A video+50
- Approved by who it’s about+75
The code of the table
- ·Points count 14 days after they’re earned.
- ·Producers are approved by their organization, and organizations by Arthur, so whoever confirms a shift or a guest is someone trusted.
- ·You can’t write about yourself. Your own organization is fine, for half points.
- ·Your account needs to be 7 days old, with a confirmed email.
- ·Up to 4 stories a month earn points.
- ·Gaming the system loses points, then the ability to earn them.
